Together, these homes create a walkable, neighborhood-style experience where families and groups can stay near each other while enjoying private accommodations, all in one of Destin’s most sought-after locations known for its beaches, harbor access, and laid-back coastal charm.*

This entire home sits directly on the Destin Harbor with gated beach access nearby, offering the best of water-focused living. Porches and interior spaces throughout the home capture harbor views, creating a constant sense of openness and connection to the coastline. A private dock with up to six boat slips - with a minimum of two guaranteed - makes boating days simple, and water taxi access adds convenience for trips around the harbor.



Living spaces

The home is arranged across three split-level sections, allowing large groups to gather comfortably while still enjoying privacy. Each section includes its own living room, kitchen, laundry area, and outdoor deck. Bright, open living areas are paired with smart TVs throughout, while a dedicated game room with a pool table and air hockey table offers relaxed indoor entertainment for all ages.



Sleeping arrangements

Across nine bedrooms and six bathrooms, the layout balances king suites with playful bunk rooms. Each section features two king suites with bathrooms and one bunk bedroom. The pirate-themed bunk room includes four queen beds and two twin beds, while the additional bunk rooms offer two queen beds and one twin bed each. Thoughtful layouts and bathroom access help make shared stays feel easy and comfortable.



Kitchens and dining

Three full kitchens support everything from shared group meals to quieter evenings in smaller circles. Each kitchen connects to its own dining and living area, making it simple to cook, gather, and unwind without crowding.



Outdoor living

A private saltwater pool overlooks the harbor, surrounded by seating, a tabletop fire pit, and covered areas beneath the home. Pool heat is seasonal and available by request for a nightly fee. An outdoor kitchen, BBQ grill, patio seating, and backyard space invite long afternoons outdoors, while nearby beach access and beach essentials make shoreline time effortless.

    Our family reunion at a Portoro Homes–managed property turned into a serious health and safety ordeal. On the first morning, a major plumbing failure caused multiple bathrooms to back up and flood an entire level with foul-smelling wastewater, making the home uninhabitable. We later learned this was a known issue and that the property should never have been rented. We lost nearly a full day dealing with the crisis and relocating our group. The replacement home was a clear downgrade, with fewer bedrooms, a much smaller outdoor space, and its own sewage odors and drainage problems.Portoro did refund the difference in value between the two homes, however this did not begin to address the unsafe conditions, major disruption, or loss of the experience we had specifically booked. After more than two weeks of communication, their additional compensation totaled only 1,600 on a stay that cost over 6,400 originally, a response that felt dismissive of the severity of the situation. They were even unable to process the full amount correctly, resulting in a separate mailed check for the final 22.44. The handling of this situation demonstrated a lack of urgency, accountability, and care. We cannot recommend booking with Portoro Homes and caution guests that serious maintenance issues may be met with slow and inadequate resolution.

    This house comfortably fit our family of 30. We were able to park all our cars in the drive. The pool was big and clean! Several in our group loved fishing on the property. Even had a view of Thursday’s fireworks. The walk to the beach took 7 minutes and never seemed crowded! This location is very convenient for all shopping and restaurants.

    We had our most recent family vacation with 9 adults and 5 children. There was enough room for all of us!! We really enjoyed the outdoor area and location to the beach and boardwalk area. My only concern at first was the three separate areas and no access via the inside but it worked out well for all involved. We had a great vacation and Daniel our contact was very communicative and helpful. Thanks for a great vacation

    Over all we had a great time. When I arrived I made sure to take pictures of outside conditions of the home as the backyard was not cleaned at all. Chairs scattered everywhere and poop on couches. They did come right away to clean poop off and blow away some dirt but felt it should have been tiptop shape especially for the price we paid to stay there. One of the room tubs had black stuff in the jets and hair on shower walls. Over all it was a great home though and nicely decorated. Beach was not far at all. We left tons of toys and a tent for the next family to enjoy!

    We love to travel a lot to Destin and spend the weekend with family, especially during summer season, since we are 2 hours away. This house is advertised wrong as an mansion and look luxury , BUT IS NOT A LUXURY O MANSION HOME , the online photos are spectacular and descriptions OMG Excellent but unfortunately NOT ACCURATE AT ALL ! … This house is for a large group of 30 people, unfortunately we didn’t read well that they accept up to 30 people, so it’s worth money for a large group. But we were two families of 7 adults 4 children, so we always look for a comfortable home that has enough bedrooms, that way we have plenty of space and feeling like a home. THE HOUSE WAS SEMI CLEAN, we found a dirty trash can downstair with liquid apparently sauce, dirty floor, terrible smell , all the rooms upstairs they really need to change their carpet, I don’t recommend this place for any Kids , we take our kids and they got sick due grand amount of dust. ALSO, we found dead roaches laying around. The bed linens did seem clean enough and towels were plentiful. The kitchen is not well equipped. Part of the family departured right the next Day and the other the following day, we were so upset, and we mention to the manager about the cleaning, and she said that I should report it at the check in, nobody want to let any people in the house while you there it, this is so uncomfortable. Any house needs to be ready at the moment of you enter. INTERNET DID NOT WORK, we did not report it, they t
