The home was so spacious, clean, modern and loved by our entire family! Loved the pool! And it's so close to everything! The beach, shopping and restaurants. We're from Missouri and this is the first time we've stayed at this home. We will definitely try to stay there again!
16 of my family were able to gather for the week to celebrate several of our “teens”! We had a wonderful time at the house and in Destin- such a beautiful area!! The home was a good set up- we utilized it all!
Excellent property, close to beach and set up perfectly for a family vacation! Would definitely recommend this house
Our family really enjoyed our stay. The house was spacious and fit our three generations. It was beneficial to have a couple of bedrooms on the first floor. The kitchen was well equipped and very clean. The children loved the pool and proximity to the beach. This house is perfect for a large family. Thank you for sharing it with us!
The place was nice and location was perfect. For the price we paid I would think there would be more supplies like more toilet paper, trash bags, dish soap, and regular spices available. All tvs did not work. If there was an issue we had great communication with property manager. We run our own getaway place (by another name) and supply what is needed for guests as far as toiletries just as if you were at a hotel.
We couldn’t have been happier with the property. It was clean and welcoming. We had a few issues with the codes to get in to the gate/home but the staff quickly responded and got it figured out. The included golf cart was a great perk. We would definitely recommend and will look to stay here in the future when we visit Destin!
Management company was very poor at follow up and accessibility. Aside from that the home was great. I don’t think the late check in if 5pm and early checkout of 10am is fair and likely will cause us to not use Vrbo again.
This is the best property we've rented so far in our 3 years of visiting Destin. It's a spacious, solid house in a quiet, well-maintained, peaceful gated community. We liked the nice short walk to the beach - only 5 minutes, even less on bike or golf cart. Close to good walking/biking paths in a less busy part of the Scenic Highway. Close to groceries, movies, ice cream, etc. Appreciated being able to use the community pool, hot tub, and workout room. Was a bummer that the tennis/pickleball court wasn't available due to remodeling. Kitchen was well-stocked and for the couple of items that were lacking (cutting boards, cookie sheets), Travel Life staff was quick to remedy the situation. It was a great fit for our multi-generational family vacation - toddler & teen to octogenarian.
House was a great place to stay. Accommodated 8 adults with no problem. Close to beach access. Golf cart was convenient. Furniture in living room area is not very comfortable though. A few items need attention. Bathroom for bedroom that has view of pool needs the faucet tightened. The dresser in the upper bedroom NE has drawers that are hard to operate. Half bath toilet is refilling every so often. We found the carafe for the coffeemaker was broken. Management got us a replacement. Enjoyed our stay and would recommend this place for a great place to stay in Destin.
House and pool were beautiful, very accommodating for a large family. We loved having the golf cart for short drives to the beach, and our small issue was resolved quickly by the owner. Lovely family vacation spot!
We had a wonderful time and enjoyed our stay very much. Golf cart made transportation easy for going to the beach or other short trips in the area. House was very spacious and worked very well for our group. My only complaint was running out of hot water if too many people had to shower in a short time. You should replace water heaters with tankless so they never run out. Overall we loved it!
We’ve stayed in 5 different houses in the last 6 years and this was the best. Roomy well stocked kitchen. Plenty of dining seating for 10 adults and 6 kids. Nice pool with afternoon shade. Close to the beach - walk or golf cart ride. Nice community pool for change of pace. Well maintained and clean. Hope to come back next year.
This house was great to accommodate a large family. So close to the beach especially with a golf cart. Easy to do a quick run back to the house to grab items for the beach. Lots of different codes to remember- one for the house, the vehicle gate and pedestrian gate. We brought a lot of food/drinks from home to save $$ and time at the store, only to find out the fridge was not cold when we arrived. We kept most cold items in separate coolers because the fridge just didn’t get cold enough and we had to continue to buy ice since it was taking too long for the fridge to do it. Even with these minor issues the overall stay was great…. Location to the beach was awesome!!
We loved, loved, loved our stay here! The house was spacious and roomy for everyone. We spent tons of time in the pool area and we’re grateful that the house had a golf cart. We’d love to come back!!
The house is gorgeous and super spacious! Big beds with a ton of room! Private pool makes for an excellent time for anyone wanting to take a break from the beach - or a nice night swim!
The property and area was beautiful. Close to the beach, shopping, and food. We had a few minor issues one with the golf cart that was addressed right away with the property manager. Quick responses.
We stayed here with our extended family and it was exactly what we were looking for! 10 adults, 6 kids. We had ample space for us all. So nice that there was a bathroom dedicated to 4 of the bedrooms, 2 other bedrooms sharing a Jack and Jill bathroom. Kitchen and living are spacious. Everyone enjoyed the pool a lot. And such a nice perk to have a 6 passenger golf cart! You’ll want it because everyone drives golf carts around this cute teach town area! Would highly recommend this beach house!
Lots of space for family- pool was a nice surprise
This home, property & area was just right for our family of 11. House was well equipped, beds were comfortable, pool was perfect size. Very short walk to beach & even shorter with the golf cart. Had one problem when we arrived but Mike with the management company took care of that quickly. Highly recommend!
