Frangista Beach is located less than 2 miles from the Silver Sands Outlet Centers and is convenient to both the action in Destin and Grand Boulevard Towne Center with incredible eateries, upscale shopping and a park with pop up fountains at its center.

Close by is Destin Commons, a beautifully landscaped, pedestrian-friendly area and a great family venue where children will love to play in the interactive water fountains. Also for the younger guests, a nautically/pirate themed outdoor playground features a 1,750 square foot soft play area with various creatures from the sea, slides, and a treasure chest!  Destin Commons also has a mini-train for the kids. Destin Commons features over 75 shops and restaurants, including Godiva Chocolates, AMC Movie Theaters and Bass Pro Shop.

If you are near Miramar Beach, the snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Dolphin Reef, deployed in 2017.  Located just 685 feet straight out from the Miramar Regional Public Beach access (by Pompano Joe's), it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Dolphin Reef is at a depth of 12-20 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

    Everything was great. The only thing that was below expectation was mold in the bathroom on the third floor.

    We were excited to stay at this property with our family and friends because we had stayed at the little house next door 2 years ago with friends and that property was phenomenal. Walking on Sunshine is an older home and easily accommodated our group but it wasn't quite as the pictures on the VRBO site portrayed. If you book this property just know, it is older and some issues could pop up. With all that being said, this property accommodates large groups comfortably and we definitely enjoyed our vacation. You are close to the beach and the little pool is great if you don't want to go all the way to the beach or if you have little ones. The RealJoy staff were helpful and great to work with.

    The property was outstanding and exactly the space we needed for our family. The weather, beaches and ocean was excellent. We did experience a couple of issues during our stay and they were resolved immediately. Definitely would choose this location and property again.

    A lot of room to spread out but beware that it’s a bit dated. Clean and has a decent size pool for the area.

    We loved the extra carriage house for extra guest. Having separate floors with kitchens accommodated families traveling together and provided private areas. Issues that arose were taken care of in a very timely manner. The pool was small but perfect for our group (we had 13 people traveling together). Location was excellent: access to beach, restaurants, shops. Deck area could use updating: painting and completion of installation of deck boards. Overall, I highly recommend staying here, and I would do so again.

    Great home for a large family, very spacious, pool house was a bonus, walking distance to shops and beach. The back area near the pool and patio could use some revamping but overall the home was nice.

    Overall we had a great time! The house definitely needs some attention especially on the outside! The decking around the pool is in really bad shape. There are rotted, loose and broken boards. The inside of the house was okay but not perfect. The sofa on the second floor is coming apart at the seam on the back right side. They also need to pay a little bit more attention when cleaning. It would be nice if they had kitchen towels and dish soap in both kitchens. The house was a great size for our group, everyone had their own space so that was nice! The stairs get tiring fast though! Lol Realjoy was great when we had to reach out to them, I would definitely rent another property managed by them!
