Fam trip 2023 @ Destin Sandcastle!

We give Destin Sandcastle five stars! If you’re looking for a beach home that’s comfy, beautiful, super clean & close to everything-this is it! This home was outstanding and the hosts were even better. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend this property. This beach home had all of the wonderful amenities our family of 14 needed to complete our annual family gathering/trip. It was beautifully decorated, we all had plenty of linens/towels, beach equipment that they graciously allowed us to use, a list of their favorite restaurants and things to do, space, we were able to grill one night, fully stocked kitchen to prepare meals as a family, and cards/board games for us to enjoy. The location was perfect…the lovely lagoon pool within steps of our door(the kids AND adults loved this), and the beach super near- just a couple of blocks right down the street. We caught the shuttle (complimentary)most days, however a couple of us took a pleasant stroll to the beach a few times because it was so near. The shuttle driver was absolutely awesome by the way! The property owners were awesome with communication as well-We’ve never had better! Thanks Mel and Jason!

Spring Break 2023

Our stay was great other than the terrible weather. The Pool was a lifesaver for our teenagers who couldn't swim in the ocean since it was a double red flag. Great location to bike path for walking and running everyday. Down the street from Publix and Walmart- 12 people eat a lot of food. House had all the items we needed to cook every night. Communication with Mel was super easy via text and they were responsive! Would Highly recommend this place!

Incredible property and even better host. We added a day last minute before our trip. No issue. We added a day at the end the night before check out, no issue. I will return here again.

Great stay!

The house had everything we needed and more including all baby gear which was so helpful. The owners were great with communication and have impeccable customer service! This was a perfect home away from home for me and my family!
