Let the kids enjoy the PRIVATE POOL while the adults sit outside in the shady alcove or tan out on the deck. The outdoor area of Sandy Bottoms is truly a magical place to spend your beach vacation!
The PRIVATE BEACH is only a 4 minute walk with NO busy streets to cross. The beach is ONLY FOR GUESTS/RESIDENTS of the neighborhood so you can avoid the huge Destin crowds! The neighborhood is protected with gated entranceways and local security to ensure everyone stays safe while on vacation.
All of our Bedrooms have BRAND NEW MEMORY FOAM MATTRESSES, new pillows, luxurious sheets and SMART TVs so that everyone can find their personal place of escape!
Our kitchen is FULLY STOCKED with everything from wine glasses to waffle makers and everything in between! We love preparing food in our family and wanted to ensure our guests had every available opportunity to make world class meals in our kitchen!
Sandy Bottoms sits just west of the heart of Destin across from the Big Kahunas Water Park. There is a pizza restaurant and breakfast place within walking distance if you didn't feel like driving. All of the world class restaurants of Destin are only a 5-10 minute drive away! The neighborhood offers complete privacy and is a mix of vacation homes and full-time residents.

About the host
Hosted by Johnny and Ashley

My name is Johnny. I have a FANTASTIC assistant named Jessie who is the most responsive and customer oriented servants I have ever met. When you stay at one of our properties (we only have 4!) you get first-class customer service throughout your stay! We are not some large property management property. We LOVE our guests and want them to make lifelong memories every single stay. We also want our properties to get better EVERY SINGLE MONTH...which is why we are constantly adding new features, swapping out new appliances, etc. Our focus is not to nickle and dime our guests, but to provide them with an experience that is second to none when they stay with us!
Why they chose this property
Location, location, location...and an amazing outdoor area!

On a gorgeous lake with ridiculous sunset views out to the beach. Your own private pool AND private beach (only guests of the neighborhood are allowed) that is only a 4 minute easy walk away!
Premier Host
