Luxurious Getaway

I recently stayed at this beach house for vacation and I could not have asked for a better experience. The home was absolutely beautiful. - from the elegant decor to the high end finishes, every detail felt thoughtfully designed for comfort and style. It was immaculately clean, which made it easy to relax and feel right at home from the moment we walked in. You could tell the owners take great pride in maintaining the property.

Great House! Great Management Company!

We LOVED this house! It was clean. The main room was open and had lots of space to gather! The management team let us check in early and texted us throughout the stay to make sure all was going well. When we had questions, they were super responsive! We would stay in this house again!

Destiny by the Sea

We had an amazing stay! The property was beautiful and very accommodating for our group. The proximity to the pool and beach was perfect. The only maintenance issue we had was that the locks did not work on the jack and jill bathroom doors. Overall, would highly recommend this stay and will likely stay again in the future. Customer service and the property manager was also amazing.

Great vacation

Thank you for a great week. Was missing an iron (guest service immediately provided to us!), do need a better (full size) ironing board and Ice machine didn’t work. But really those were the only minor issues. We loved our stay.

Amazing stay

We traveled to Destin to celebrate our Mom’s birthday. There was more than enough room for four adults and four kids. We enjoyed walking to the beach everyday and the kids loved being a few feet away from the pool. Any issues we had were resolved quickly. Plenty of beach equipment so don’t worry about packing floats, chairs, or buckets and shovels. Would love to stay again.

Great stay

Property was great and immaculate, however, could improve on kitchen supplies like coffee, sugar and cream, and salt and pepper. Also, no beach towel provided for a beach property. A few board games for entertainment would be nice too.

Perfect stay

We had the most wonderful stay in Destiny by the Sea. The house was comfortable, spacious and accommodating. The kitchen had everything we needed, the grill was brand new. There were plenty of beach toys and accessories in the garage. We had everything we needed right there. The beach was beautiful and chair service was perfect. Highly recommend.

Only complaint was having to call customer service for the lock box code to get into the house. But they got us straightened out! Very apologetic and helpful customer service representative. Great location. Beautiful house. Quiet neighborhood. Two minutes from private beach access. Will stay again.

Beautiful beach house

We really enjoyed our stay at Destiny By the Sea. There was plenty of space for all of us and it was a short 5 minute walk to the private beach. There were a couple of problems, however. The key to the front door couldn't be removed after locking the door, (it would get stuck) so we ended up leaving the door unlocked for the first few days of our stay. Also, the bed frame of one of the king sized beds in the smaller master bedroom was broken, making the bed sink in the middle. Maintenance was called for the front door and bed and quickly resolved the problem. This house is lovely but not for guests with bad knees. The kitchen and living room are on the 2nd floor and master bedrooms on the 3rd. If you're young and in good physical shape, it's a great place for a large group to stay.

We had a good stay at this property. The property is located in a very exclusive area, with direct access to a private beach. The house is out 4/5 minutes walk from the beach. We had several age groups in our party, including our parents. The bedrooms downstairs were good for them, however, they had to climb a flight of stairs to get to the second floor kitchen/dining. We had a plumbing issue which was resolved promptly. The customer service/support was prompt. Overall, I would recommend this property for stay especially when you have more than 10 people in the group.

AMAZING!!!

Everything about this place was PERFECT!!! Hands down the best vacation we ever had….this house was absolutely amazing in every way!! Lots of room for our whole family of 12 to spread out. Our house was immaculate, beds were comfortable, bathrooms for every bedroom, kitchen was well stocked, I could go on & on & on!! PLUS The pool was right across the street & the ocean was only a short walk away. WE LOVED EVERY SECOND…I literally had tears in my eyes as we backed out of the driveway for the last time. It was a vacation of a lifetime…thank you for letting stay here!! PS… We had a little trouble getting our wristbands but management was wonderful to work with & took care of it right away.
