About this property

Gulf Star - 7BR Beach House, Private Beach Access, Pool, Game Room, Sleeps 21

Destin Beach House, Gulf Star, in Miramar Beach, Florida, by Panhandle Getaways, is a 7-bedroom, 7.5-bathroom beach house that sleeps 21, just 1 block and about a 3-minute walk from deeded private beach access, across from a private neighborhood beach. Built for multigenerational family weeks, reunions, and big group trips. Two separate living areas let the early sleepers and the late-night crowd coexist, and the lower-level suite has its own kitchen, laundry, and private entrance, a self-contained apartment for grandparents or teens. You are close to, but not inside, the busy center of Destin, on a quiet street off Scenic Gulf Drive with Gulf-front dining within walking distance.

GOOD TO KNOW

• No pets at this home. Ask us about our pet-friendly Destin rentals.
• Renters must be 25+. No guests under 25 without a parent or legal guardian present.

INITIAL SUPPLIES – UPON ARRIVAL
Panhandle Getaways furnishes a few essential items for guests to utilize until they can get to the grocery store. Initial Supplies include: Dishwasher soap, small washing machine powder, each bathroom has amenities (like hotel but NOT restocked) shampoo, conditioner, soap bar. One roll of toilet paper in each bathroom and one paper towel roll in the kitchen. All bed linens and towels are provided. We encourage guests to bring beach towels for use at the pool and beach.


Guests tell us the same two things. The two living areas saved the family vacation, and the 3-minute walk to a private beach beats circling for public parking.

4th of July Beach trip

The property was perfectly located across the street from a private neighborhood beach…an easy walk even carrying our beach chairs.We loved the layout of the house. The two separate living areas allowed the older and younger family to retire early and not be kept awake by the poker game in the main living area. We really enjoyed the house, found everything we needed, and would definitely consider coming back.

Couples Trip

We did a 12 person couples trip and had a late arrival after midnight. Upon arrival to the house we hadn’t been sent the access codes but I chatted the owners and they responded immediately! After gaining access everything was exactly like described and pictured. Ample space and the bedrooms were beyond cozy and efficient! There were 2 entries because there is a guest house under the main house attached to the garage. Everything worked out perfectly!

Conveniently located.

The house was clean when we arrived. About a 3 min walk to the beach entrance. Only inconvenience would be for a house as big as it is, it’s obvious there will be big parties reserving. The lack of kitchen utensils was inconvenient. Definitely needed more pots and pans. Aside from that we enjoyed the house. Also wished the bottom Level attached to the main house from the inside. Having to walk outside in the dark to get to the rest of the party was annoying.

Unsatisfied

Early check-in was not available which was not a problem but i didn't receive the code for the house until i reached out. All of the couches and chairs were super wet which messed up our clothes,batteries were missing from the room remote, the ceiling was leaking on the first night and reported the same night but no one ever came to check on it even after being told they would come out shortly. The code to the pool did not work even afer i was given several codes to try. The only good thing was the location of the property

Thank you for your feedback, Alisha. We're very sorry to hear that your experience fell short of expectations. While we’re glad you enjoyed the location, it’s disappointing to hear about the concerns with the furniture, remote, and communication regarding the leak and pool access. We strive to respond promptly and provide solutions, and we’re looking into what may have caused the delay so we can improve. We truly appreciate you bringing this to our attention and hope we’ll have the opportunity to provide a better experience in the future.
