    Wonderful stay with family. We vacationed with our adult child his wife and babies.There was a separate living area for them upstairs directly outside by the pool., which was perfect. Plenty of space inside the house for the rest of our family. Bathrooms and showers with each bedroom . We loved that. Fenced in yard was great to have for kids and small dog(s) The golf cart was ready to go upon arrival. Communication with host Robert and check in was extremely easy. Pool and hot tub were perfect to have for after long days and off days at the beach. Loved the game room in the garage. The house was well stocked and clean and had 3 refrigerators. Morning on the coveted porch rocking while drinking coffee were beautiful. We truly loved EVERYTHING about this house and the quiet area including the location and walking distance to the beach. Stores were nearby yet the area was quiet. We will definitely be back!. Thank you - The Martin family

    We loved our stay at this property. It was close to the beach they had everything you needed for kids and beach equipment, which made it even more affordable and convenient. The house was extremely clean. The property manager was easy to get a hold of and responded in a timely manner. I would definitely stay here again and recommend to people.

    This Destin property exceeded our expectations in every way. The home is immaculate, beautifully updated, and thoughtfully designed with high-end finishes and exceptionally comfortable furnishings. The pool and hot tub were perfect for relaxing, and the additional amenities—especially the golf cart and game room—added a true resort-style experience.The location is outstanding: central, convenient, and ideal for families, yet still private and upscale. It is close to the beach and still close to shopping in the area. The hosts provided excellent communication and were attentive throughout our stay, making the entire experience seamless. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend this property to anyone seeking a high-quality, luxury stay in Destin

    The property was beautiful and fit the needs of the adults and kids. Even down to the sound machine for the littles, plenty of space, seating, and places to socialize. Also had plenty of activites for the rainy couple of hours of we had! The location was very close to everything and barely had to drive our car anywhere. Definitely would love to stay again!

    A beautiful home, our 2nd year staying here and certainly not the last. So much space for everyone to enjoy and the pool/hot tub is simply amazing. The hosts are so attentive and willing to assist with anything you need and are very friendly. We needed nothing but they still checked on us. The house location you cannot beat. The street is very homey and the beach is just steps away. A wonderful way to spend a vacation in Destin.

    Our summer family vacation is the highlight of our year which we would enjoy no matter where we were. However, having a fantastic house to stay in is always a cherry on top and this house was just that!! The layout was absolutely perfect for us. Hubby and I had the beautiful master suite, our daughter and SIL had the beautiful bedroom at the other end of the house with their own bathroom and our granddaughters were in the bunk bedroom right next to them with their own bathroom. Our sons stayed in the carriage house and loved having their own bachelor pad space!! The place was absolutely immaculate and had everything we could possibly need to make our stay as nice as possible. We didn't have any major issues at all but any questions we sent to the owners were promptly answered. The pool and spa and game room were thoroughly enjoyed by everyone. The golf cart was a very cool bonus too. It's a very easy walk to the beach but the golf cart made it so much easier to take all our gear down. I could go on and on but suffice it to say the house was perfect for us and we would highly recommend it to anyone!!

    We stayed at this lovely home with our grown children and grandchild for 5 nights. Everything was spotless. All the rooms were spacious. We cooked all of our meals in the home and found the kitchen to be fun to work in. The 3 full-size refrigerators plus the little one on the back porch were great considering the amount of food and drinks we kept cold. The pool was clean and clear, and we spent a lot of time in it. The beach is an easy walk down the street. We rented the additional golf cart, and it made transporting beach equipment even easier. There were plenty of beach/pool towels, and we were able to launder them at the house (detergent and dryer sheets were provided). We enjoyed homemade piña coladas on the back porch in the evening and walking the neighborhood with a cup of coffee in the morning. We would definitely stay here again.

    The place was great! Just perfect for all our boys! From kids ranging from 9 years to 18 years old, each one had a blast! The ping pong table and darts (game room) was a huge bonus with all including me and my husband. The carriage house even provided the big kids a place to escape and feel like they weren’t under mom and dad all while being in the back yard. The golf cart was a huge plus as well!! Even though you really wouldn’t need it for a day at the beach because the house is literally a block from the ery easy access to the beach. We went in the beginning of June and the beach was not crowded at all! Weather was even great the whole time! Couldn’t have asked for a better experience overall!

    I can't say enough about how amazing this property is. Plenty of room, so clean, generous accommodations and close to everything! The pool, hot tub, golf cart and game room were a hit! The hosts are so responsive and kind! We bought groceries for our stay and rather than throwing unused items away, they take them to a local shelter. We highly recommend and will definitely return!!

    This house is exactly as indicated in the description of the home. It was extremely clean, and well stocked. The gated pool was one of the reasons for renting this home as it added security for the children. When I had a question/concern I received a quick response! I plan on returning next year and highly recommend this place!

    We loved our stay at Sandy Starfish. The house had everything we needed and is very well stocked with extras, dishwasher detergent, Garbage bags, shampoo, etc., which was nice not to have to go buy anything extra. It is close to the beach whether walking or taking the golf cart. The pool and hot tub were perfect temps for our October trip. Hosts were wonderful and replied promptly to any inquiries we had. We are looking forward to coming back next year.
