About the host
Hosted by Amanda
I love hosting families and helping them create memories that last a lifetime. Destin Garden Oasis combines a peaceful garden setting with easy access to restaurants, shops, and the beach, making it the perfect retreat from busy day-to-day life.
I’ve lived in Destin for over 15 years, and I enjoy exploring the area and sharing my favorite local spots—from hidden gems and family attractions to the best places to eat and relax.
Inside the townhouse, you’ll find beach chairs, a wagon, and toys for fun days on the sand, plus indoor entertainment like a telescope, books, games, and magazines for quieter moments.
My goal is to make every stay comfortable, convenient, and memorable, with thoughtful touches for families, kids, and eco-conscious guests alike. I’m always happy to provide tips or recommendations so you can experience Destin like a local and enjoy every moment of your vacation.

Why they chose this property
I chose this neighborhood for its perfect mix of convenience, comfort, and community. The townhomes offer direct access from the parking lot, which makes coming and going easy—especially with kids or beach gear.
One of my favorite things is the community of full-time residents who look out for each other and help keep the property safe, beautiful, and welcoming. It’s a place where families can relax, enjoy the gardens, and feel completely at home.
Guests also love being just a short walk from the beach, restaurants, shops, and family attractions, while still enjoying a quiet, peaceful retreat at the end of the day. This neighborhood truly gives you the best of both worlds—Destin’s fun and energy, plus a calm, family-friendly community.
