About this property
Spacious Ocean Retreat~Minutes to the Beach, BBQ, Pool, Beach Gear, and More!
Enjoy the sugar white sands of the Emerald Coast in this getaway perfect for families or small groups! Freshly remodeled kicked up to the next notch in luxury beach homes.
Located in the elite community of Destiny East and just minutes to the beach. We supply the beach cart, beach chairs, umbrellas & towels... You supply the sunblock and laughter. It's a recipe for the perfect vacation in this bright and open 4 bedroom home. Our property manager is local and is never more than a phone call away. They will check in on you and can answer any questions, give restaurant recommendation, point you in the right direction for the shopping outing, Etc.
If you do encounter a summer shower, how about a movie on the overstuffed sectional and wide screen TV or a BBQ on the covered patio. There is an extra bottle of gas in case one goes empty in the middle of dinner.
Prepare a meal in the gourmet eat in kitchen equipped with modern appliances, quartz countertops and a big breakfast bar. Watch your favorite show in the family room just off of the kitchen so you don't miss any of the action.
Two bedrooms are located on the west side of the home, the principle on the east and the bunk room in the middle. The master bedroom has a king bed with silver chill mattress to keep you cool on those hot summer days. Double doors from the master open up onto the back porch.
The primary bathroom 70 inch soaker tub, oversized vanity w/ dual sinks, walk in marble tiled shower and spacious closet.
The bunkroom features a full sized mattress & three twin memory foam beds. A second full bathroom is just across the hallway and has a tiled walk in shower with access to the backyard.
The other two bedrooms each have queen sized mattresses and beachy decor. The shared full bathroom is beautifully remodeled with tub/shower combo and tiled surround, vanity with dual sinks and quartz counters.
You have full access to two luxurious pools, a hot tub, tennis courts, a full size workout facility and playground.
Discover all that Destin has to offer, including boat rentals, water sports, deep sea fishing charters, sunset cruises, and top rated attractions like the Big Kahunas Waterpark. Try out the Crab Trapp, Pompano Joes, and the Whale's Tail. There are tons of dining options right on the beach. Grab a cup of Bad Ass coffee in the morning. There is no shortage of things to do nearby.

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!
