Our stay was absolutely perfect. This house had everything we would need. A walk to the beach. It had all our beach accessories, chairs and beach toys, towels to a very much needed golf cart. Manager was always available. Cleanest place we have ever stayed. Definitely plan to go back

This home could not have been more perfect! Photos are spot on. The home was clean and well stocked. Owner was very fast at responding to questions. We had no issues. The golf cart was a little trickier to drive than others I have rented in the past - steering was very tight but manageable.

Well Done

The management of the property was superb, always available for questions and good energy to make sure our stay was great. All amenities were to the standard mentioned and photos extremely accurate. Very often you see photos and get swayed into something that's worse than what's shown, but this was definitely not the case.

Beautiful!

Everything about the house was beautiful. Couldn’t have asked for a better location being minutes away from the beach whether walking or driving in the golf cart. Plenty of shopping near by as well. The only negative was not being able to figure out the living room tv. It wasn’t important enough to contact host since we spent most of our time enjoying the beach. When I did contact the host for other things, she responded quickly. Will definitely stay again!

The Best Location and Hosts

The property location was outstanding being only a quarter mile from the beach, the home was beautiful and was supplied with beach items, cooking items, cleaning items, etc. The golf cart was the most convenient part of the trip, being able to bring the golf cart to the beach or to the grocery store was great! Unless we wanted to go into town we did not ever have to use our vehicles. We had 11 people on our trip and we had plenty of space for everyone and had the best time. Mrs. Renda was a great host and was very easy to get a hold of. I hope to stay at the same place next time I go back to Destin!

Hakuna Matata

This place is perfect!!! They thought of absolutely everything we needed. Short walk to the beach or quick 2 minute golf cart ride. Plenty of golf cart parking at the beach at the crap trap. There is a garage full of beach toys, beach cart, 2 body boards, nets, beach chairs, beach towels. Everything. Great beds/linens. Keurig AND regular coffee pot. Short walk/cart ride to dining. We will definitely be back!!!
