House was as shown in photos. Management answered all of our questions in a timely manner. Location is perfect with easy access to beach and restaurants. Overall we had a great stay
Great location, nice neighborhood. Quick walk to gated beach area. Pool area is nice - we didn't use it b/c it was cold but it is walkable. House was a good size for our family (2 adults, 3 kids). Plenty of room to spread out. Kitchen was well stocked. Hot Tub was great!

Thank you for the lovely review, Kristin! We're so happy to hear that you had a wonderful stay at Serenity Now. We can't wait to welcome you back!
I’m on hospice and wanted to have a family vacation with my family. I’m so glad that we chose “serinity” The golf cart was great to transport, back and forth to the beach! Thanks again for your hospitality!
The property was in a beautiful private community in a quiet cul-de-sac. The beach was a 2 minute walk away as well as being private accessible by gate. The complimentary golf cart offered our group a fantastic way to enjoy Destin without having to continually use our car. We took advantage of this by eating at nearby beachside restaurants. The property was clean and the accommodations were great! We had two small issues while staying but our hosts were quick to respond and fix the problems within an hour! We will definitely consider booking the same exact property in the future!
