Stayed Sep 18, 2025This house was in the best location! It was gorgeous and had plenty of space for everyone. The beds were very comfortable, the pool was nice, and the balcony was peaceful. The Host communicated with me everyday to make sure we had everything we needed. Will definitely rent here again!

Stayed Jun 14, 2025This home was a good size for our group of 9 adults. The approximately to beach was great. The house description is a little misleading. The 3rd floor is a waste in the hot summer months. At 6am it is unbearable with the sun and there is zero view of the Gulf like the description states. The lake is just OK. The bunk room is just half the garage that has been walled off with an exterior door going to the garage which is only big enough for a golf cart. The down side to this is the door does not seal. There is a gap all the way around the door for the garage heat to warm the room up. Only 1 plug in in this room that claims to sleeps 12 people. The 2 bedrooms with sliding glass doors only have a stick for safety and locking. And no black out curtains for the East facing doors. It gets very bright at 5;15 am. The house needs a serous DEEP cleaning. The kitchen cabinets and drawers were very dirty. Looked like the fronts hadn’t been cleaned in years. Every drawer had food or dirt in them and the cabnet fronts were dingy and corroded with food and grime. The base boards throughout the house especially in the bathrooms were gross. The dishes in the cabinet were all dirty. Looked like someone just unloaded a dishwasher full of dirty dishes and silverware. We had to wash every dish we used. Positive thing is our microwave went out on day 2 of our stay and they were very responsive and quick to replace it. We had a brand new one by lunch.

Stayed Jul 17, 2024This home was breathtaking!! The views from the kitchen were breathtaking! Words won’t do it justice. Hubby and I enjoyed morning coffee on the rooftop deck. The open floor plan was perfect for our family. Every room was super spacious. Two of them, right off the back deck. Decor was modern, bright, light. Super comfy, luxurious, and family friendly. The master bedroom is to die for! The swimming pool area gave us sooooo many memories and photoshoot backdrops! The beach couldn’t be any closer for comfort. EVERYTHING!!! Only downside: wanted just a wee bit more security. The bedroom doors leading to the deck were secured with a stick in the door. The back door leading to the patio - only secured by a dead bolt which is concerning bc the back and side property are not gated and open. But, it’s ok bc that neighborhood is extremely quiet. We stay in that area every year and always feel safe. If you’re ok with a lot of stairs, then this house is for you. Overall, we would likely rent again! This house is a winner!

Stayed Nov 22, 2023Everything was really great. But there are a few things to note. The condition of the property was just ok. There were several things that needed repair and maintenance. The gate code to the neighborhood was incorrect. We asked about some things like a crib and high chair and was told i neededto contact a rental company, but when we arrived, we found these items already there. Which would have been great to know. All in all we had a great weekend and would return if they repaired a few things.

Stayed Oct 20, 2023We are a group of 10- women, who look for a beautiful house near or on the beach in Destin, Florida annually. The house was beautiful online but did not meet our expectations upon arrival. There were more than 15 blinds missing on the second floor, and the level 3 deck was the most disappointing. Furniture was old and torn, rusted and the hole at the entrance to the deck made it unsafe for us. House sleeps 20 people but was not prepared for 20. This house needs a serious upgrade.

Stayed May 15, 2023Friends and family stayed for a week and the property was VERY disappointing. Holes in Walls, rust and dirty vents, broken umbrellas, wallpaper tearing off walls, light bulbs out, cracking tiles, broken trashcans, broken pool chairs… the list goes WAY on. Beach reunion was only willing to refund a VERY minimal amount (10%) after we spent a great amount (cannot say specific amount due to review policy). We gave them a chance to make it right after submitting photos… but we wont be staying with Beach Reunion again. 0 stars. This property was very poorly maintained and us “reaching out” to them upon arrival is not realistic to have someone perform renovations during our vacation stay…
