    Jan is a fantastic host. She provides all the amenities you might need (bikes included!) and is very communicative. We contacted her on a question regarding the hot tub and it was remediated right away. Our 2nd stay at the house and it’s fantastic!

    Perfect Week! Jan T and the house were both great. House has everything you could want. Great kitchen with all the amenities. Rooms and beds were all comfy. Pool was great for just relaxing and reading. Kids went to the beach everyday. Quick golf cart ride to drop them off and not a bad walk if necessary. Neighborhood is quiet and community center was great. Close drive to lots of restaurants and shopping (including grocery store). A all around.

    We had a really nice stay in Destin and at this home. The home is in a gated community that was well kept and safe. The community pool and basketball court were used many times by our kids! The beach was close along with options to so many things when it rained one day. Lots of choices for groceries and food. Everything was good! The only downside was the Internet was only in the living room and there were several times it went down. They are only allowed to give out 8 bands to get into the community pool/basketball which is tough when the house sleeps more than that. We did some repairs on the bikes to get almost all of them in good working condition for the kids to use. The neighbor of this home was very nice and friendly too. We thought the parking rules may be an issue since we drove from Michigan in three large vehicles, however, it all worked out just fine. Really nice area and home. We would recommend! The host Jan was great at responding to all of our questions and needs!

    We had an amazing vacation stay in Destin! The home was clean and all basic necessities were already available in the home. From the hot tub and pool, fireplace, jacuzzi tub, golf cart rides to the beach, we will definitely be back to stay in this beautiful home.

    The House was just as I expected. Pictures and description are right on the money. We had our entire family at the house nine folks ranging from infant to 70 years old. Private pool was Awesome. My four year old nephew could wake up and swim before breakfast. The property is private and gated with a beautiful large pool at the clubhouse with tennis/pickle ball courts. The golf cart was a bonus ride around neighborhood and take to the beach. One of the best family vacations ever for us and highly recommend to anyone.

    The property manager was very responsive to any questions/texts and is super nice. The house is not exactly what we thought as some pics make the pool/lanai area look larger/nicer. The pool waterfall stopped working and their pool guy came and he didn’t fix it (the owners were informed and said it would be fixed but wasn’t) so the kids were bummed it was inoperable for the last few days of our trip. The house itself is nice but, was not very clean at all and we had a couple of encounters with cockroaches inside the home. Floors and bathrooms were also not very clean. We had to clean floors and bathrooms before we could bring our items inside, not what we expected for the cost. Note:you’re asked to wash beach towels used but there is not any laundry detergent. We had to go buy laundry detergent, dishwasher pods, garbage bags, and of course toilet paper and paper towels (which we expected to buy paper products) to get through the week. It is a good location, beautiful club house with a decent gym and a beautiful club house pool/outdoor area.
