Find your vacation destiny in Destin! Located in the prominent community of Destin’s Destiny, Destiny Beach Villas 2A is an intimate and inviting vacation home for beach visitors. It boasts one bedroom, two baths, and a central location that places guests near a variety of Emerald Coast activities. Up to four guests can enjoy the cozy accommodations provided. This makes it great for a family getaway or a romantic retreat for couples of all ages. Unit 2A is located on the second floor of a two-story home, with the first-level unit 2B also available for rent.
Ascend the outdoor steps to the second level of this beautiful rental, where you will find your beach home-away-from home for a blissful week – or longer! Inside, an open floor plan is accentuated by large windows that create a large and welcoming living space. Blues, wood and whicker accents, and beach décor add to the Floridian flair. The sitting room features a blue couch and two whicker armchairs centered around a distressed wooden coffee table and a blue-and-white striped throw rug. The couch doubles as a queen-size sleeper sofa. A large flatscreen TV sits on a small cabinet for entertainment. The light hardwood floors flow seamlessly into an informal dining area, where a circular wood table and four chairs sits beneath an elegant light fixture. The large windows beside the table allow for stunning meal-time views of the beach. White cabinetry, matching appliances, and a stainless-steel refrigerator make up the elegant and functional kitchen. A glass door opens from the main living area to a beachfront balcony with chairs, perfect for sipping a cocktail and watching the waves.
The bright bedroom features a king-size bed and a wall-mounted flatscreen TV. It also has a chaise lounge, beachy wall hangings, and a private bath. A glass door leads to a romantic balcony that overlooks Four Prong Lake. A full hall bath is also available with a tub-shower combination.
This rental unit is located directly across from the beach, meaning guests can go from lounging on the couch to lounging on the soft sand in minutes after leaving. And if you forget your towel, boogie board, snorkel, or anything else, it’s no problem to just nip back to the vacation home to get it. Or, go back to grab a snack before heading out for round two in the emerald waves. Another bonus of staying here is the community pool, which has a wide sundeck, pool chairs, and BBQ grills. Other nearby conveniences include restaurants like the Crab Trap and Captain Dave’s, recreational activities at Seascape Resort, Henderson Beach State Park, Big Kahuna’s Water and Adventure Park, and more!

Beautiful place, pool was not heated but would come again
This place was very clean, limited extras (no salt & pepper, need to buy your own toilet paper, after the first roll), great location, communication was really good! Would stay again

Location and view are great. Recently renovated condo so very modern and clean. Perfect for a couple. A lot of stairs for seniors but worth being on second floor for view.

Nice updated top floor villa with two water views. Rental service was great. Plenty of fresh towels and clean room.
It was absolutely perfect, we’ll be back, specifically for that property.
It was perfect, no complaints. There was no hot water in the sinks but it was soooooo cold out, since the water was hot in the showers, we were fine.

Love this condo. We have stayed at this condo for several years when we found it was purchased by new owners so we missed a year but they have done such a nice job refurbishing it. Beautiful location and views of the ocean.

Thank you for your review. We are happy the maintenance issues were resolved quickly, and we thank you for your patience and understanding. We are glad that you enjoyed your stay and found that the property met your needs. We hope to see you again soon!
We loved this rental! It was in a convenient location, was clean and nicely decorated, had a nice view of the gulf. Best for a family with one child or 2 that don’t mind sharing the pull out couch. It was spacious enough to bring a pack n play to put in living area or bedroom, but staircase is open so a gate is necessary if your bringing a little one. Would love to rent again!

Wow! Such an amazing place with great views of the beach and lake directly behind it! My kids and I enjoyed every minute of our stay. The lake behind us was an added bonus of fun for them. They LOVED all of the turtles! We couldn’t hear anything from the villa below us and they also had young children. The guest portal made things so easy for checking in and out, as well as finding activities, shopping, or food near by. Our place had everything we needed for our week long stay and we can’t wait to book again…and again for many years to come!

This is the worst place I've ever booked in Destin.
First off, poop on the wall in the bathroom, then blood on the sheets. I took pictures and called Ocean Reef. They sent 2 people who laughed the whole time, it was awful. Fortunately, the place we stayed last month had an opening ( cabana club) and we rented there for the rest of our stay. So, trip salvaged, but at a ridiculous cost, as we didn't get our money back. YOU'VE BEEN WARNED!!! DO NOT RENT FROM THIS COMPANY

Thank you for your feedback and we apologize for this unpleasant experience while on vacation. We can assure you that these matters were rectified when the recvovery cleaning crew re cleaned the unit. the property has passed a rigorous home inspection process. Should your travels bring you back to our shores soon please give us a call. Thank you for being our guest.
We have been coming to the Destin/ San Destin area for two decades. Each property we have stayed at has strengths and weaknesses. It is difficult for us to identify any real weakness at this property. It took 30 seconds to walk to the public beach access which was never really crowded due to the lack of high rise condo complexes in the area. The front balcony overlooks the gulf and the back balcony overlooks what appears to be a small man made reservoir. It is centrally located between the Destin boardwalk/docks and San Destin shops/Baytown. The condo itself is well decorated and clean. Has a great beach vibe. Our only negative would be they only had one roll of toilet paper for each bathroom and the breakfast cook ware for eggs was old and not non stick so we had to scrub the pans for quite a while to get them clean. We plan on returning in the future and would highly recommend the property for a couple or small family looking for a relaxing, clean and convenient location!

Great! We are so happy to hear your enjoyed your stay. We appreciate your feedback and will have those items looked into. Please let us know if we can help with any future vacations you may take. Thank you for choosing Ocean Reef Resorts.
Location was great, right across the street from the beach. Place was cleaned upon arrival. Kids loved the pool. Ice maker in the fridge was a plus.My only complaints: 1. This is not a whole house. It is either lower level or top level. 2. There were no trash bags. Would have been good to know and we would have brought some. 3. Unless you’re by the parking lot, you have to walk a little. Lugging all of our stuff was a chore. 4. They had zero cleaning supplies except a broom and small vacuum. I’m a mom, I clean as I go and like to leave places better than I came to them. I couldn’t do this. 5. The main shower in the actual bedroom had such low hot water. It never really got hot. The other main bathroom out in the living space was okay. Besides those things, we enjoyed our stay.

We sincerely apologize that the home didn’t meet your expectations. After your stay, we conducted a thorough inspection and are addressing all matters to ensure a better experience for future guests. Thank you for being our guest, and we appreciate your understanding.
We stayed at an upstairs unit across the street from Miramar Beach. Reviewed while waking in: tile stairs to unit were slippery when wet. Den is spacious with ample seating options. Nice couch too. Kitchen was well furnished with appliances in a good state. View from upstairs unit was beautiful. Curtains closed tightly. Loved having 2 full baths for spouse and myself. Bedroom was spacious and well appointed. Enjoyed our stay. Didn’t use pool or under street walk way to beach. Great locale for good shopping and eateries.

We stayed for 6 nights and had an amazing time. The beach is literally right across the street & is not crowded at all. Couldn't ask for a better location!!
The property was nice and clean with plenty of towels, & had everything we needed. Check in & check out was easy & hassle free. Definitely will be staying here again.
