Everything was great. Beach close walking distance. Grocery shopping within 2 miles. House was clean, well kept. I would recommend this house to anyone.
We had a great stay. I brought 4 18 year old boys for their senior trip after graduation. They loved the house and it was an easy walk to the beach each day and short drive to all the activities in the area.

My family loved the space and all the rooms. Super clean and well stocked. Quick walk and you are at the most beautiful beach! Garland is the nicest owner we have come across. Do not hesitate to book this one.

Thank you Lisa. We lived hosting you all. Y’all are so sweet and welcome anytime. So glad y’all loved our home. See you next year.
We had everything we needed for a great vacation. Having the pool so close was really convenient. Since we took our dogs all the dog waste stations were also a bonus. We would definitely stay here again. We love coming to Destin and this was a great spot to be in.

Thank you so much for staying with us. You all are amazing. Your welcome anytime. We try hard to make sure your stay is great. See you again soon!!
House was perfect for our group. Plenty of room and the neighborhood was perfect for the kids to go walk around. The pool was close and the walk to the beach wasnt bad at all. The house has everything you need!
We had a lovely stay. Everything is very close. The pool, the beach, etc… Unfortunately the tennis courts are in need of repair and didn’t have a net but we just drove to a nearby park. Garland was thoughtful and prompt in his communication.

Thank you so much. It was great meeting you. I’m so glad you enjoyed the house. We love the location too. Looking forward to you staying with us again.
Our family enjoyed the spacious living quarters next to the pool and short walk to the beach! They even have a wagon, playpen and extra strollers to use! The owners are very accommodating and kind! Kate
What a week we had! This property was perfect for our group of 14. The location of the gated community was great and we were close to everything. It was so nice to be able to walk about 100 feet to get to the pool and have a short walk to the beach everyday.The owner/renter was so pleasant to work with, and assisted us with anything that we needed!We had such a great time that we are already discussing a trip back to this same place next year!!Highly recommend this property for any Destin trip you are planning!!
Beautiful community. They provide shuttle service to the beach. The pool is a few steps away. The house is very nice. Plenty of space for our group od twelve. The owner was super nice and responded right away when we contacted him. We enjoyed a wonderful vacation!
This house is perfect for a large family gathering! We had 11 adults and three children and we all had our own space and didn’t feel cramped. We had everything we needed to enjoy the week, and the host was gracious enough to accommodate our request for a Christmas tree since we had children with us. The pool is very close and the beach was just a short walk. We enjoyed every minute of it!
Bermuda House was beautiful. It’s definitely deserves a great rating. There was 10 of us, and we had plenty of room. Garland and Gretel had everything you could possibly need to cook with, and we were pleasantly surprised with all the beach toys , wagon, umbrella, etc. Thanks for sharing your place with us.

Thank you Kim. It was wonderful having you stay with us. We try our best to make sure I guest have everything they need. Thank you so much for sharing.
The house was very spacious. There were 11 total- 5 adults and 6 children. We had plenty of room for every one to have a bed. The pool was convenient. The beach was an easy walk or the was a golf cart that ran all day that could take you to the beach for a tip. We would definitely stay here again.
We can’t say enough great things about this home! We spent a week (7 adults, 3 kids, & a dog) and everything was perfect. The home had everything we needed and the location is a super quick walk to the beach. Mr. Rowland was very attentive in making sure we had everything we needed, and even followed up after we left to ask for any recommendations on property improvements. This should definitely make your list if you’re planning to travel to the Miramar/ Destin area!

Thank you so much for the kind words. We work very hard to maintain high standards in our home. And you all make it a blessing to be a host. Look forward to seeing you all again at your big blue house.
We had a fantastic experience our first time using VRBO. Could not have asked for a better host home our first time. He was communicative and professional and easily reachable. The property was very well taken care of and clean as well as super close and just a walk from the beach as described. We will definitely book again with Garland in the future if needed.

About the host
Hosted by Garland Rowland
My beautiful wife Gretel and I (Garland) have been married for over 37 years. We lived in Franklin Tennessee most of our lives. We have been coming to Destin every year since before we were even married. We even honeymooned here in 1984. In 2017 we decided to take the plunge and move to Destin. We quit our jobs and headed south. My desire is ministry working with families and my bride is continuing her career as a NP. We purchased the Bermuda House in 2011 and have not regretted it one second. We are excited to be here and love meeting all those that come and visit our home! See you soon!,
