I really enjoyed my stay. The residence is at a great location. Very clean and everything is in order. Everything is there to accommodate you and make you feel as if you are at home. I look forward to returning..
This VRBO rental exceeded all our expectations – even better than the photos! The location was ideal, and the property was quiet, cozy, and well-maintained. The host went above and beyond to ensure we had a smooth check-in and a great experience. We’re already planning our next visit!
The property was beautiful. Within walking distance of the pool/tennis courts. Friendly people. Short drive to the beach. Perfect for the 6 of us!

The house was a long way form the beach especially with children involved.Therefore this house needs a golf cart to shorten the trip to the beach from the house. Everything else was as advertised.
Excellent property located in a beautiful east destiny neighborhood.
We really enjoyed our stay. Perfect home for a family vacation. Conveniently located close to beach and everything else that you look for on a vacation.

Thank you very much Rahul. We look forward to seeing you soon!
Although we unfortunately could not stay due to a last-minute family emergency, I want to share how incredibly kind and understanding our host was. Despite the short notice, the host was very generous and refunded our full amount without deducting any fees or charges.This level of empathy and support truly shows the kind of person behind the property—someone who genuinely cares about guests and understands real-life situations. Even though we didn’t get to experience the home, this experience alone gives so much confidence and appreciation for the host and the way they treat guests.We are truly grateful and would absolutely love to stay here in the future when travel allows. Highly recommended purely for the host’s kindness, professionalism, and humanity.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Kennedy’s Cottage. It was very clean and we didn’t want for anything. We look forward to being in the area again and staying at your cozy hideaway.
Great beach access, quiet and private neighborhood
Wonderful amenities
Lou was always answering any questions and very helpful
We will be back soon

About the host
Hosted by Louie Williams
We live in Louisville, KY with our two daughters and two pups. We bought our Destin home in June of 2021 after vacationing in Destin for years! The renovation was truly a labor of love but we wanted the very best for our guests and for our family! We hope you love it as much as we do.
Why they chose this property
Kennedy's Cottage is great for any group because it's all on one level and there are so many entertaining spaces! Everything is freshly remodeled and you can't beat the neighborhood. Destiny East offers amenities galore and you have peace of mind as a gated community. We are a five minute walk to the beach!
