The cottage was super clean, convenient to the beach and super cute with its beach vibe. Would highly recommend this and the other units Sugar Palm has. Great customer service, quick to respond.

Perfect family vacation destination

Sandy Toes was the perfect location for a relaxing family vacation. The house was walking distance to the beach and a short drive to restaurants and entertainment.

Everything was just as advertised. The home was warm and cozy with all the extra touches. The kitchen was better stocked with cooking equipment than my own home! Our fur babies loved the backyard and we loved the convenience option of a pool and a gas grill for family fun at home. Our only disappointment, and no fault of the property, was the “no pets on the beach”…a nearby dog park was okay but had to drive about 12 miles for the dogs to play at the ocean. Met the nice, friendly owner and the neighbor was great. Overall, we loved our stay. Thanks again for sharing your lovely home.

We stayed in this house a few years ago and to our surprise, the property was just as amazing!

Usually when we repeatedly stay at a property we notice a slow decline in how things are kept up with and maintained, Not the case at Sandy Toes! Place was just as if not better than the last visit. Perfect for our family!

Destin vacation

House was perfect, I was there with family and 2 small dogs. Enjoyed the house, pool and fenced yard. Was a bit disappointed that there was not much public beach, I am spoiled by previous vacations where the beach was not an issue.

Perfect Birthday Celebration!

This is our 2nd time staying at Sandy Toes, and it won't be our last! We came to celebrate our birthdays with our 2 doggos, and had an AMAZING time again.

Our C.C. House Review

The house was pretty, spacious and full of surprises! Our family had a wonderful time staying here. We also loved meeting the cat named Squeaky from next door, going to the beach and swimming in the pool. I hope that every one after us has just as much fun as we did.
