About this property
BUILT ON THE SAND! STEP OUT UR BACK DOOR ONTO YOUR OWN EXCLUSIVE PRIVATE BEACH!
REFUND policy- 90 days full refund from check in day!
EXCLUSIVE PRIVATE BEACH JUST FOR YOU AND YOUR GUESTS- NOT SHARED WITH OTHER HOMES OR A COMPLEX. (beware of places that advertise beach FRONT they could be across the street with a beach view/ Beach front can mean nothing is blocking the view but it may not mean ON the beach. WE are on the beach built on the sand. You cannot get any closer to the water unless you are on a boat! Also beware of PRIVATE BEACH ACCESS= which means there is a private gate to a beach that could be a public beach- that only means the access is private not necessarily is the beach private it could be public. Majority of places that do have a private beach they still share it with a whole complex so you re still fighting for sand with those in the whole complex. We own our beach down to where the public walks along the water. Each home owns it own beach like a backyard. We respect each neighbors beach staying within our boundaries of our beach/yard like you would any homes private backyard except our is a beach).
Spoil yourself. You will love the ease of having your own exclusive private beach right out the back door of this home. Not having to fight for a spot on the sand takes all of the stress away! This home in not like other places that have a private beaches which they share with a whole complex. This home, the beach is all for you and your guests staying in the home with you from corner to corner of the oversized beach deck down to where the public walks along the water.
The ease of stepping off of your oversized beach deck onto the beach is spoiling along with being convenient to walk into the house to grab beach snacks and drinks from the beach level kitchen or to use the restroom.
To not have to pack up all of your stuff for the day to go to the beach, or drag it across a street or down an elevator is spoiling. THE BEACH IS YOUR OWN PRIVATE BACK YARD!
Walk out of the beach level onto the oversize private beach deck just for you and your guests. You will love the beach level deck which is super super big 20 feet by 30 feet in size with a covered area where you can grill and dine at the big square table that handles up to 16 people or sit in the sitting area just watching the Gulf roll in or go and lounge in the sun in the lounge chairs in the uncovered area while watching the water sparkle in the sunshine.
You will be even more spoiled to wake up in the morning and step out onto any of the three decks in this home where you can be in your jammies drinking coffee watching the dolphins go by. Yes, the Dolphins swim by very close to sure almost daily depending on weather and waves.
Late in the evening sitting on the deck under the stars with the moon glowing off of the water having a glass of wine. Being built on the sand you feel as though you are on the beach. We have been known to take sand chairs late at night down to the edge of the water visiting with our guests until the we hours of the morning. This is the ease of stepping right off of your beach deck onto your beach.
Or step out of the master bedroom onto the private master deck overlooking the white powdery sand and emerald green water. A nice outdoor space for those staying in the master bedroom.
THE BEACH HOME: You will love this unique extra wide 3 story townhome! The views from every floor including from your bed pillow of the master bedroom. This home is unique because of being double the width of most town homes it feels like a house being almost 3000 sq. ft. and extra wide.
There is so much space for everyone to enjoy. From the 2 fully equipped kitchens with Kuerigs & 2 living rooms. To having 2 master bedrooms on the top floor, and two bedrooms on the beach level- great for multiple families or for teenagers to have their own space.
You will love the spectacular views and the open feeling in this home that even when you are indoors you still feel like you are on the beach.
2 living areas. 2 Fully equipped kitchens main level and beach level. Large master open your eyes in bed and see the beach / gulf. 2 master bedrooms each have a private full bath.
Park in front of this home in the two designated spaces (holding two cars each =4 cars total) and walk right into the Main level which has gigantic open living area with a kitchen and dining area and a full bath laundry area. Step outside onto the middle/main floor deck to enjoy the sunset or sunrise or watch the dolphins swim by. while over looking the beach and the Gulf.
You can head on down to the beach level via the interior open staircase or down the exterior steps from the middle main deck to the beach deck. We find having both sets of steps is handy when people are sleeping downstairs and you want to access the beach deck the exterior steps gives your guests staying on the beach level privacy.
The Beach level has 2 bedrooms. One bedroom is a bunk room with two queen sized beds. The other also has cstom bunks with a king on the bottom with extra head space to make it comfortable for a couple to use this room if they are not going to use the Queen bed above. You will love the unique design of this full bath right outside of the 2 bedrooms with a large custom walk in shower. The open living room and kitchen are on the beachside of this home facing with beach views. This fully equipped kitchen is great for the ease of cooking meals while grilling on the oversized beach deck and for beach snacks and drinks. The ease of walking right out of the beach level onto the beach deck again is spoiling. This level is great for the elderly to sleep, live and have access to the beach deck because once you are on this level there are no stairs to access the beach deck- one level indoor and outdoor living.
THINGS TO DO: You will love the area this home is in away from high rises and the craziness of the congested downtown Destin. While still having fun things to do within walking distance. Walk to 4 restaurants and beach bars-Captain Dave's, The Crab Trap, Kenny D's and Pampano Joe's or to a beach shop right next to Pampano Joe's. rent Seadoos, Rent a pontoon for the day or go on a dolphin excursion, deep sea fishing, and lots of golf courses. Take a sunset cruise or go on floating Tiki hut. Rent a boat and go to crab island for an afternoon where they have floating playgrounds, floating restaurants, with crystal clear water that is low enough that people stand in the water playing frisbee with other boaters. Hire a Chef to come and cook a dinner just for you and your guests. Or have our mobile masseuse come to the house to do massages on one of our decks or in a private room. Have a beach party, Hire Kenny of Kenny D's they will cater to you and your guests right on the beach! Set up your own folding table and folding chairs and do a dinner on the beach with your feet in the sand! Set up battery operated torches. This is always an amazing memory to have. During season there are many beach activities. Just walk 5 minutes to the public beach where you can do banana boat rides, parasailing, take surf lesson or sand castle building lessons and so much more. Nearby is a lot of shopping from the outlets to the commons, Movie theater, bowling and more. We have an aquarium, amusement parks, water parks and Fudpuckers is great for kids where you can not only go and see a bunch of alligators but you can hold a baby alligator. There are often music festivals, art festivals, light shows, fireworks and wine festivals. Go on a helicopter ride over the Gulf and along the shore line. Always fun to go to Baytown or Harbor town with lots of fun things to do there. There is have roof top bar down the street at Henderson where you can watch the sunset or you can go to the rooftop bar and pool at Effies which is something to see as well and watch the sunset. On our street within a mile or two are 7 beach front restaurants and bars. Rent a bike, scooter, golf cart or dune buggy. I could go on and on with all of the things that there is to do.
But for those who just want to relax there is nothing like spending a day on your own exclusive slice of white powdery sand with the Gulf breeze blowing through your hair, the sunshine kissing your skin and the sound of the clear emerald green water rolling in.
Many grocery stores from Whole foods, Sprouts, Publix, Winn Dixie, Walmart.
4 TV's (both master bedrooms and both living rooms) Free WiFi. We provide bed linens, bath towels, beach towels, 4 beach chairs are on the beach deck for your use on the beach along with 1 beach umbrella. Beach service is available if you want to rent a beach set up. We provide a starters for bathrooms and kitchens.

Kimberly’s house was wonderful and exactly as described. The communication was immediate. The location on the beach truly can’t be beat. Thank you to Kimberly for a fantastic week in Destin!
The property has great location really enjoyed it right on the beach. The neighbor to the south was wonderful. He was an all year owner and it was nice to have his advice Only negative would be if you ended up with somebody staying on the north side of the unit could cause you issues,they were quiet, but they did smoke out on the deck, which was not a great thing.Location along Destin was perfect as it was just north of the real busy area of the public beaches and so anything north we didn’t have a lot of traffic for people, but we were close to the action fun places to go and eat and have a drink.

Thank you for your review and that you found our location was perfect. You do get peace with your own exclusive beach while having access nearby to Restaurants, beach bars, shopping without the craziness of the high rises etc of Old Destin even though you can easily get to downtown Destin within 10-15 mins.
We had an amazing time! What a beautiful home with all the setup you could need! Coffee on the beach - right outside our door. Beach chair service! Family dinners together at the huge dining table. And sunsets on the deck. Walk to get a daiquiri and seafood galore. We had plenty of room! Beds were comfy and linens were soft. Plenty of towels too. We can’t wait to come back!

I love the photo that you shared. Thank you so much for your review. It makes us happy to hear that you had an amazing time! Truly all that you mention lives up to this experience of staying here right ON the sand with the ease of the beach being right out your back door like a backyard but it is a beach instead. We hope to see you return. You were great guests. Thank you!
Loved the location and the private beach!! The only surprise was that in the basement, the 4th bedroom is a queen over queen bunk bed. The top buck barely has head clearance.. you cannot sit up in bed.. there is a tiny broom closet that one suitcase can fit in if it’s standing up. No floor space for luggage if it’s opened up and laying out. It is fine for a person only using the bottom bed, but the top bunk isn’t comfortably usable at all. So I wouldn’t count on it as a bed option. The 2 pull out couches were fine, and there was a very comfortable memory foam mattress in the master closet with room in the floor of the master for it.. All kitchen appliances were great, and utensils and dishes well stocked. Overall loved the house. Just be ware about the 4th bedroom situation. The king over king bunk beds were great though. The complementary beach chair and umbrella service was great also!

Thank you for your review. I am glad that you loved the house. Your input is received and appreciated.
If you are speaking of the back bunk room with two queen size beds/bunks we do create our custom bunks so if two adults are staying in that room they are not cramped sleeping on the bottom bunk. the closet is not a broom closet it is a full size closet to be able to store suitcases on the bottom and hang plenty of clothes. You are correct the top bunk is closer to the ceiling so this is good info for future guests. Thank you.
I do not think you are speaking about the larger bunks room with 1 king & 1 queen that has plenty of head space while still giving the lower bunk extra space to make it inventing for one couple to use that room and not feel cramped with a bunk over them. That room has a dresser as well and a full size closet.
Your input is received and we are contemplating adding custom drawers under the bunk in the back bedroom. Thank you. There are three sleeper sofas plus to two custom single sleepers in the house as well.
Thank you for your review.
The house was perfect for our group and for vacation! Being right on the beach was amazing and the house was so cute. We would love to book it again or recommend to anyone else looking for a beach house.

Thank you for your review. We would love to have you back as our guests. Next year is already booking please keep that in mind so you do not miss out on dates. Inquire first before reserving. We give returning guests a little something for being a repeat guest a you will benefit most by letting me manually adjust the nightly rate prior to reserving. This will adjust taxes and fess since they are based on the total nightly rate. The taxes and fees cannot be adjust once you reserve. I want you to get the most out of our gift to you.
We look forward to your return.
Thank you
Our family loved his property. We have been coming to the Destin area for 25 years and this beach access is the best we have ever had. We will be back to Green Reef next spring. We did experience a few maintenance issues but Kimberly was very responsive and did everything possible to make things right.

Thank you for your review. It is always difficult to explain how spoiling and the ease of having the beach as your true backyard. Thank you. We hope to see you return. Thank you for being our guest. It was a pleasure to have you.
We were a party of 9 and we all loved the property. My husband and I are in our late 70s and would have loved an elevator. No towel hooks for bathroom Bunk beds were too close to the ceilingsPoor A/C and circulation in basement areaOutside chairs on beach level were too low for elderly Now that I’ve told you bad let me tell you of the goodBeautiful view. Loved it Correct size chairs on living area deck.plenty of sitting area in den area. A lot of dishes. Beautiful sunrise and sunset viewing. Homeowner/tenants on each side couldn’t have been any nicer. Beds comfortable Easy access to the beach with outside shower We will definitely consider it for future visits

Thank you for your 5 star review.
I am not sure which bunks you are speaking of.
WE do give a lot of space for the lower bunks in case adults are sleeping on the lower and do not want to feel cramped. Upper bunks are normal height space from the ceiling. The beach level has its own AC unit so that one can bring it to the temperature choice of their own. If I had been told that you were not comfortable I could have helped you work the thermostat. WE do have hooks on the back of bathroom doors for towels plus a ladder towel rack in the master bath. I am not understanding the statement chairs on beach level too low- they are normal patio chairs along with a love seat. If you are speaking of the extra sand chairs to take on the beach in case guests want sand chairs along with the regular beach chair service and umbrellas. WE do find all ages enjoy this home even for those who aren’t comfortable with steps they usually take the beach level with the s2 bdrms, 2nd kitchen, 2nd living room with a walk out straight onto the oversized beach deck with 7 steps down onto your own private deck. I am glad that you enjoyed the home/beach/views enough to consider returning.
Host was terrifying helping us with dates and check in.

Thank you for your 5 star review. As I guessed a typo you meant terrific not terrifying lol. It was great to meet you and assist whenever you called upon me.
Thank you.
Wow! The pictures just don't capture the beauty of this place. Everything was just wonderful - the comfy group living area, the kitchen, the downstairs kitchen and bathroom making beach refreshments easy to restock, the rooms where we could rest up for the next day. And the multiple decks! We had a hard time deciding where we would share our next group cocktail Stores and dining locations are close. The neighbor next door is a hoot, we shared laughs with him every day. Beach is perfect for flying kites, and the daily beach chair service made it welcoming to head out and catch some rays. Kimberly was very responsive when asking questions and offering suggestions prior to pur arrival. She checked back in on our arrival day to make sure we were happy and all tucked in. Great host!We were there for a music festival and had a local golf cart company that shuttled us around. Thanks for more great memories! I hope to book again with you.

What a beautiful review! Thank you! It truly makes us happy that you enjoyed our home so much!
The three day night concerts happen through out the year. Just 2-2 1/2 miles down our street across from the beach!
I am personally taking friends to our home for the October concert with Styx and many other great bands! I wish I could make the one right before October.
Nothing like beach days in a great house and awesome concerts at night.
I hope to see you and your guests return.
Thank you so much for being such great guests!
The house was amazing so stunning, loved having the beach right there with 3 different decking out looking it.

The property is Amazing!!! Private beach just steps away!! Walking distance to restaurants. Spacious house. Beach towels were provided, along with beach chairs. Shower on the deck for washing off the sand. Host is very easy to communicate with.

I am smiling. Thank you for the compliment and for the review. It would be my pleasure to see you return. We do discount to returning guests that stay 7 nights. If you decide to return please inquire first and remind me that you are a past guest so that I can apply the discount prior to reserving. WE hope to you again. Thank you.
The only complaints we had were we could not get any hot water in the main kitchen and the top floor is really warm since there is no thermostat up there and must rely on the downstairs and we all know heat rises. We do love this home and hope to be back.

Thank you for your review. I wish that you had contacted me. I am here staying in the house. Hot water for the kitchen sink takes a few minutes to come through when you turn the single handle towards the wall/away from you.
We are having no issues cooling upstairs during the day and heating the house during the night (cool evenings in the end of Oct.
We do look forward to your return. Please inquire before reserving as we do something special for returning guests.
We had one issue and the owner resolved it VERY quickly. Fantastic private beach and lots of room to relax in the house. Newer kitchen was very clean.

Kimberly was a wonderful host and was very quick to respond to all questions and issues. The home was clean and had everything we needed for a great week in Destin! I would recommend the home to others!
We loved being right on the sand. Just steps from the water. Lots of room. Great decks to enjoy your drinks and listen to the ocean.

Thank you for your review. Being built right on the sand with the beach right out the back door is spoiling. Having the oversized beach deck, the main level deck, and the private master bedroom deck is so much fun to relax on, watch the sunset with a drink, have dinner, and lounge on. so glad that you enjoyed it all. Thank you.
I purchased my long time dream home in 2011. The season was starting. Due to laws I could not do renovations until 2012. At that time I did large major things such as New Air conditioners and moved them off small deck for less noise. I also built and over sized beach deck that is unique to most other places. Along with fresh bedspreads, new linens. Things to make the house clean and beach ready. Since then my attention is on the inside adding more appliances, decorating just updating for beauty. Please review ALL reviews. I truly enjoy reading the guest book and learning of first sight of beach at 80 years old and a swim, weddings, family reunions etc. It makes my heart happy that I can share something that brings so much joy to my family and friends and more! This is a dream home for me. I have dreamed about it since I was 8 years old. I take pride in it and I want to share it with others so they can make fabulous memories here.
Why they chose this property
Rare they do not build them on the beach this close to the water anymore. Out house is not the typical narrow place that most are. We have super wide rooms with mutiple large floors to ceiling windows that look out at our deck, beach and water. This is a hassle free holiday. Think of walking out to your backyard. The beach is our private backyard. We own from wall to wall of our house all the way down to the water. If you are out on the beach and you have forgotten something it isn't a big deal to walk in and get it or go to the bathroom because you are just a few steps into the house. At beach level we have a second kitchen with a full size fridg, sink and dishwasher...makes it easy for beach food and drinks and after eating dinners and lunches out on the deck or beach the dishwasher is right for you to load. No need to lug up to kitchen level. I have tried to make this the most relaxing beach vacation anyone could have. Also if you want a little people population just walk the beach to the end of our complex, Capt Dave's has happy hour, Pampano Joe's had Volleyball, a beach bar , happy hour, The Crab Trap has a beach bar, a beach playground etc... shopping and entertainment is within 2 miles...so come relax and play on the powdery white sand and the beautiful emerald waters of our Beach House. Green Reef 18. Cheers to your next holiday here!
What makes this property unique
Hard to find home is built directly on the sand/beach. Great for Beach Weddings! No lugging beach chairs and toys back and forth or having to cross a street. lean your chairs for the night on the sand fence at your beach deck.. Wide open rooms with floor to ceiling windows for room for everyone. Two kitchens, two living rooms, 4 bedrooms, 4 full baths. The views from every floor are tremendous. being directly on the beach and stepping off your deck onto the sand cannot be easier. Have your wedding here and then stay for your Honeymoon. We also own another unit if this complex that sleeps additional 20 people along with other homes we own within 3 minute golf cart ride. Have your reception pool side at another of our homes. We can coordinate officiant, photographer, make up, hair, catering etc.. two living areas great for multiple families or teenagers having one area to themselves.
