  I am a repeat visitor to Destin's Destiny and must say that the home is very nice. On each visit we had a group of 19 + (Family Reunion) and the accommodations worked out well. It rained the entire weekend, but thanks to Destiny West the a club house approximately 5 houses down the strip that had a basketball court for the teens, the adults were able to keep our sanity for the lack of beach activity. I would recommend this home to any large group that prefers separate sleeping and bath quarters. The kitchen is fully stocked with cookware and utensils for those wanting to prepare meals. There is also a charcoal and gas grill on site for outdoor cooking .There are many attractions nearby(shopping, amusement parks w/ adult go carts) for those needing a brake from the indoors. The owners are very friendly and only a phone call away if you need them. I would most definitely use this home again.

  Recommended for: Girls getaway, families with young children, families with teenagers.

  We were attending a family reunion and Destin's Destiny was perfect for our family. We loved having no steps, having the pool just outside in the front, plenty of parking, the beautiful architecture inside and out, the beauty, comfort and cleanliness of the house, the good supply of beach and grilling items. We do wish the first floor bedroom had a king bed and the third floor bedroom had a closet. My sister had the big house next door and the two houses were accessible in the front and back and that was nice. My brother had a house across the street on the beach, so we had access to all. We have stayed in Destin's Destiny before and hope to stay there again. Mary Rose took good care of us. I recommend this property to anyone.

  Owner response: Ms. Perry ~ I have tentatively put your Thanksgiving Week 2014 on hold for you and your family. We appreciate you and your comments and look forward to having you again! Oh, and our housekeepers, too :) Thanks for taking such good care of the house.

  This house has it all, great open floor plan on the main floor, wonderful spacious pool out front and a "master" bedroom on the main floor. The owners have included beautiful towels, softsoap at every sink, dishwashing detergent and every linen and small appliance needed to make one feel truly "at home" . We used this house to accommodate family members who were attending a wedding nearby and what a wonderful gathering place it was! Everyone was thrilled with the house and furnishings while enjoying their own private haven to retreat to during all the proceedings. There is ample parking for as many cars as come with the guests. The house has beautiful views of the lake in the back and the ocean in the front, and the Crab Trap is just down the street. The master suite on the second floor is quite luxurious and has a great view of the ocean out its own private balcony. We hope to stay as guests in this house sometime soon. It is such a gem, and the owner, Mary Rose, is so delightful to deal with. Do not hesitate to rent this one! It is beautiful!

  Owner response: Happy to hear your family was comfortable in the house! I'm sorry we didn't get to meet but we're hoping you will come back so I look forward to meeting you then. Don't wait too long :)

  We stayed at Destin's Destiny from 7/29/12 to 8/5/12 celebrating several family members' birthdays, and had a wonderful time. Other than one full day of rain, the weather was amazing and the pool was used almost non-stop. Access to the beach is an easy walk and the water is gorgeous. The house is beautiful and Mary Rose is a sweetheart to deal with.

  I wish every house and every vacation held as much promise as this one. The house in of itself is very spacious and livable. In the morning a beautiful breakfast to start the activity driven day, all prepared in this well appointed kitchen. You can have 4 cooks in ithe kitchen moving around easily. After a long day it was wonderful to have the young adults all four of them go to the guest house and relax before dinner was served in the main house. We had theme night dinners and amazing coctail hours around the pool. The younger children swam in the onsite pool as we prepared dinner. Then watched the olympics on the plasma TV in the family room. The house is set up so you can be down stairs visiting or in your room upstairs and it is very quiet and private. This is the perfect set up for a family vacation. Also, Mary Rose is so accomidating. She returns phone calls and answered all our questions. She is very trust worthy. We had activities and food planned for each day. Golf, fishing, jet skies and pontoon rental, and a sea shell cruise. Thats why we loved having this great kitchen to cook in because we were tired and wanted to stay in. Also, the Crab Trap is down the street, you can walk to it if you don't want to drive somewhere for dinner. There is a sidewalk in front of the house and it's great for people watching. Not only does this house have great access to the beach, but the grocery stores also.

  Owner response: Wow, you write beautifully! Sounded like a great time for all. Maybe you should be a vacation planner and add that to your list of many talents!! Do come and stay with us again.

  This is a great house with a perfect location for a beach wedding! It made for a beautiful setting and fun for everyone that stayed and came to the event. Mary Rose was amazing and was there for everything we needed done. She paid extra attention to make sure the house was in great condition for our special day and we very much appreciated all her help! The master bedroom makes for beautiful 'getting ready' pictures for the bride and the dowstairs was perfect for the grooms party to hang out before the ceremony. The dining room was a beautiful nook for the wedding cake area with the vaulted cielings that you can see from the second level. It was an amazing evening made even better by a beautiful setting! i would love to come back on our anniversary and make it an annual thing!

  For our 50th wedding anniversity, we had a family reunion that included our four sons and their families. A total of 20 people. This property was just like the listing description. It was in excellent condition - recently painted and thoroughly clean through out.. Everything one could possibly need was available. Many activities were available within walking distant. The owners were extremely friendly and very helpful. I highly recommend this property for an outstanding vacation.

  Owner response: We are honored to have hosted your beautiful 50 Years of Marriage together. What an inspiration to all! You and your wonderful family are always welcome to come back. Thank you for choosing Destin's Destiny for your celebration!!

  We recently stayed at Destin's Denstiny and had a great time. We cooked out and swam in the pool, went to the zoo and an aquarium too. My children were delighted with their rooms and we were as well. This home has a deck for the top floor, two decks at the second floor level, and the pool at the ground floor. I liked the fact that the floor in the kitchen area is all tiled and the kitchen is large for entertaining. The living room is open along with the kitchen making it great to visit with friends or watch TV while cooking. It is a great place to stay and great for groups of people. Mary was great to rent from as well. Some of the pool furniture was older but we didn't have a lot of people during our stay so it didn't affect our comfort at all. Mary said she is replacing it and I have no doubt about that, it is probably done already! She was great to rent from and we hope to return soon.

  Owner response: All chairs replaced and we bought a new grill as well! Come back and see us ~ I loved all your ideas :)

  We just got back from spending a week at Destin's Destiny. My parents and brother joined us and my teenage daugthers each brought a friend for a total of 9 people. Mary Rose was nothing short of spectacular. She was responsive to our needs, pleasant, and very much focused on ensuring we would have a great experience at Destin's Desinty for the week free of any worries. She accomplished that without a doubt. The only thing that came up was the pool had a little debris in it due to the wind. We sent a text message to Mary Rose asking if there was a pool skim net and pole at the house so we could keep the pool clean during the week if we had any more hard winds or storms. Within an hour, she had a one brought to us. The floor plan was great for our group and particularly the kitchen/ dining room/ living room area. The bedrooms were good size and the Master was great. It had a lot of room and we were very comfortable. The house had everything you needed. It was very clean and in overall good condition. The view from the balconies were great and the pool area was very enjoyable. The location was absolute perfect! Very convenient to the beach. We would definitely recommend this propertly. It was an absolute blast !

  Owner response: I suppose the pool would stay cleaner if we didn't have the new home construction next door! Thank you for understanding. It's always a pleasure to meet and have wonderful people like you stay at Destin's Destiny!

  Each year near Mother's Day my brothers and I take our seven sisters out to celebrate what we call Sister's Day. This year we made it an entire weekend and Destin's Destiny made the perfect setting. The home was extremely comfortable and spacious for our group of 13. We didn’t even have to use the great space offered in the separate Carriage House. The owner, Mary Rose, went overboard to make our stay enjoyable. My sisters are still talking about the trip and the accommodations. We can't wait to get back! If you are looking for a lovely home in a great location, you have to checkout Destin's Destiny and allow the owners to show you what customer service really means. This was our best Sister's Day ever.

  Owner response: Thank you for your kind words. We enjoyed having you and your beautiful family! We would love to have you back next year - same time, same place :)
