4 MINUTES WALK TO BEACH - PET WELCOME - PRIVATE POOL - FENCED BACKYARD

I have never stayed in a VRBO that I did not have to buy pots or pans to cook with. This house was fully equipped. They had two dog beds and even had water bowls and food bowls out for me. I didn’t worry about my dogs or the family. I will definitely stay at this place again and I do recommend it.

Nice quiet neighborhood. Walk to beach was definitely NOT 4 minutes, but manageable and easy. Suggestions for improvement: additional/upgraded locks on doors to exterior. There were four entrances into home and deadbolts seemed pretty worn.

The property is incredibly close to the beach. The owner has a beach wagon which helps for carrying items to the beach. If you need chairs or an umbrella for the beach, you can pay for chairs or an umbrella at a rate of 70 per day, or you can pick them up from Walmart for cheaper and carry them to the beach. Great neighborhood, not the crazy tourist trap that Destin is. Stores for groceries are close by, great restaurants are within walking distance. The pool is nice; bring bug spray to avoid the mosquitoes. The host is super responsive, and helpful. If you love the Emerald coast and want to avoid the nonsense of Destin, this is a great area to stay.

Was a nice place will definitely return in the future

We really enjoyed our stay at Dune Dr. It is less than 5 min walk to the beach and less than 2 min with a golf cart. Beach Access provides bathrooms and outdoor showers to rinse off before heading back to your stay. This property is close to the local favorite Stinkys restaurant which is in walking distance as well. The private pool was clean and great for when we weren’t at the beach. We’ve stayed here before and at another property in this neighborhood and really just love this location and the vibe along 30A. The only drawback to this time staying here is the grill is not in working order, the drip pan is nonexistent and the grill is pretty rusted out. Appears the entire grill should be replaced and looking back through other reviews it looks like has been like this for awhile. We love to grill out during our family vacations so that was the only disappointment. Other than that everything else was great.

Property was awesome, nice clean pool the grand kids and the grown kids loved! Property is a little dated compared to the million dollar houses around it but we would stay again in a heart beat!! Hopefully can rent it next year! If you have a chance to stay here don’t pass it up for the higher priced flashy ones!

When staying at any Vrbo you have pros and cons. The pros outweigh the cons for this property. Yes it’s a little outdated and needs a little TLC however it was more than fully equipped with just about everything one might need. Yes the pool is a little on the smaller side but it worked and was a nice choice to hangout in when one gets worn out at the beach It’s actually closer than it appears and the location is perfect! It was a smooth check in and check out. Very quiet and gorgeous neighborhood with the walk to the beach that has a public restrooms and outdoor showers are only a couple blocks away. There are a few restaurants within walking distance and anything else just a couple miles away. I’d definitely recommend this property.

We really enjoyed staying here. Being walking distance from the beautiful beach was incredible. The large space easily accommodated my family of six adults and a plus one. Loved the fenced in back yard which allowed us to bring our dog along. The swimming pool was very nice to have while relaxing at the house. Overall great stay!

Very nice home close to beach , pool nice and heated , and the host was accommodating .

We stayed here for about a week with 7 adults, a toddler, and a dog. This place is extremely dog friendly which was great. Our dog loved the yard and they even provided food and water dishes and a dog bed. There are three bedrooms and fold out couches in the living room. The fold out couches are pretty comfortable for a fold out couch. Most of the floors are tile so sound does carry quite a bit. The stairs were not toddler friendly but it wasn’t a huge issue as she slept on the main floor. The location really is nice. It’s an easy walk to a clean and not too busy beach. The neighborhood is very quiet and there is ample privacy and parking on the property. We were at this property in May and one of our biggest complaints had to do with the yard. The listing advertised a grill and there is one in the backyard but we discovered it was completely rusted through only after purchasing a lot of food to grill. The backyard also had a lot of mosquitos and other bugs which disappointed us as a big reason we booked this place is for the fenced in yard and pool. The yard was definitely not well maintained which we attribute some of the bug problems to. They supplied a washer/dryer with detergent, some beach toys and umbrella, a keurig with k-cups, bath towels, and a lot of kitchen things that were helpful for cooking. I suggest purchasing food storage containers and ziplock bags if you plan on cooking. Overall great place and would stay here again.

Wonderful stay, comfortable house, nice pool & fenced yard for our dog, short walk to the beach and good seafood restaurant.

We just spent 4 nights here in July, 2024. First, the location was excellent. It is truly a 4 minute walk from the beach. It is a 20 minute drive to Destin, which has all of the tourist stuff, but we were purposefully trying to stay away from that. The master bedroom had a true king. The upstairs advertised a king, but was really 2 twins pushed together - very uncomfortable. There was no soap in the shower, nor were there basic seasonings (salt or pepper). We had to buy this plus paper towels and toilet paper - perhaps this should be included, especially considering the price per night. There is a private pool, but much smaller than the picture suggests. The perimeter of the house needs some TLC - not well taken care of. Overall it was fine, but not amazing and (again for the price) a disappointment.
