About Nick & Tina Athens
We totally renovated, furnished, and operate this home. We are hands on owners, and have been renting homes for over 20 years. We keep our homes updated and are very attentive to detail, including a high cleanliness standard. We spend $35,000-$150,000 each and every year on improvements to enhance your experience - I challenge you to find another home that provides that. Take a look at our >100 guest comments - we take care of our guests!
Nick & Tina Athens purchased this House in 2008
Why Nick & Tina Athens chose Destin
This is one of the most unique settings - very few places in the world can you be on a spring fed lake while also adjacent to a saltwater body of water. This home offers great views of both. This lot is the largest of any rental home in Destin and is also next to a large green space.
What makes this House unique
Largest lot size and most parking than any rental home in Destin!

A refreshing family time !
Absolutely beautiful property ! The house is gorgeous, the kitchen a dream , but the pool area was my favorite ; with both views of the beach and the lagoon, our family dinners there forever be remembered!
Fantastic vacation
We throughly enjoyed our stay in this lovely home. Nick was very attentive to our questions, and also very pleasant to deal with. We had 14 people in the home and we had plenty of room. We spent A lot of time in the home, as we had bad weather quite a few days. We played a lot of games and did some puzzles.
The only thing we would have changed was since we went in the off season, and had colder weather the hot tub only heated to 82 degrees ( during the warmer weather this would be just fine ) however we were unable to use the pool or hot tub.
Such a lovely area, such a LOVELY home. Would definitely rent again .

Beautiful home in a great location!!
We hope to return!!
Awesome Home!
Our family had an awesome time using Nick and Tina’s home. We went for a family vacation had a total of 15 adults and two kids. The home was big enough where we didn’t feel on top of each other but also small enough to find each other. The view to the ocean was great and beach access super easy. Just a small walk across the street. We used the kitchen to the full it was stocked with plenty of cooking utensils and the Wolf stove was awesome to use. We only had a little problem with the heated pool but Nick was very helpful and had great communication through the problem. Our whole family agreed that when we go back that we would 100% rent this home again. I promise your family will not be disappointed if you rent this home also.
Beautiful Home
Loved this absolutely beautiful home. All our children and grandchildren stayed in this home and had plenty of room. The short walk to the beach was fabulous and my husband loved getting up every morning and walking on the beach. We gave this home a 4 star because it wasn't very clean when we arrived. The owners have taken care of this for future guest and we are hoping to return next year on Fall Break. Thanks Nick and Tina for the use of your home.
We have taken immediate action of hiring new housekeepers to maintain our high standards, which are evidenced by the >100 five star reviews for our home. We were alerted to the condition, and my wife & I drove down and personally deep cleaned the home. We are responsive and committed owners, annually improving and upgrading the home (we will be spending upwards to $100,000 in improvements this winter).
