Punta VistaMare at Destin Pointe- Private Heated Pool

We had the best stay at Punta VistaMare (PVM). We’ve been coming to Destin for 10 years with our kids and have stayed at other properties in the past. No more. PVM is beautiful, safe, well kept, comfortable and convenient. The access to pools and beach are wonderful, as are the balconies to watch the world go by. I will be happy to return to PVM.

Wonderful stay! The kitchen was extremely well stocked as we are a large family that prefers to cook rather than the long waits at restaurants. There was a small issue with the lick on the front door, but after a quick text with Jonathan it was fixed without a delay.

Our stay was wonderful! Jonathan was very accommodating with answering questions and relaying information. The pool was a major plus and the water felt great this time of year. Additionally, the chalkboard with our name on it and ambient music upon arrival really upped the experience. The property's infinity pool was lovely as well and there was always room to access pool deck chairs. The beach access was convenient and not too crowded. You can also see the fireworks from the boardwalk on the front porch! The only thing I would say is I didn't realize or see in the description that there wasn't an interior staircase to go between the downstairs and upstairs so using the outdoor entrances was a bit cumbersome.

This property was very pretty, clean and within walking distance to the gulf and bayside beaches. We were able to contact Jon at anytime and he always responded and immediately resolved our questions. Would definitely stay at this property again! Thank you so much for allowing us to stay here and visit beautiful Destin, FL.

This gated community is located in a very quiet end of a residential area. The gate entry code wasn’t mentioned in our check-in instructions, but was the same as the door code. The Gulf beach was less crowded than I expected since it’s located away from condo resorts. The private pool was well-kept and shaded in the afternoon, and the community pools were very clean and offered nice variety of depths. We really appreciated having beach items like chairs, toys, coolers, wagon, and popup tent provided. Unfortunately the trolly service was not working during our stay, but it’s only about an 8 minute walk to the gulf for an adult. One thing we didn’t realize is that there are no internal stairs between the levels of this home, but it didn’t bother us very much as both staircases are covered. The entire property was very clean, and someone stopped by to service the pool during our stay. The only problem we had was that the master bathroom shower hot water was broken during our stay. We notified the host, he did respond, and ended up working out a deal with us for the inconvenience. We definitely enjoyed our stay, and the location was perfectly near lots of favorites without being overly crowded.

We took this vacation for my daughter’s high school graduation trip and were not disappointed. The property was gorgeous and the owners were so very nice and accommodating. Would definitely recommend to others.

Stayed with extended family (total of 7; 6 adults and one teenager). The kitchen was well stocked. Location was an easy walk to beach access. There’s two grocery stores within 1-2 miles. The neighborhood is gated and not much traffic. Great place to walk or ride bikes. Plan to stay again.

Our family of five and our friend’s family of six stayed here for our annual vacation. The house is beautiful and the pool was great for the kids (aged 1 year to 16). The walk to the beach and pools is about five minutes. We also loved the home was in a gated community! Loved that they had a washer and dryer and provided a few laundry pods. The only minor drawback was the upstairs and downstairs are not connected inside the house which we did not realize until we arrived. We still had an amazing time and loved the property. Beds were comfy, linens were clean, appliances are high quality, and the grill was great to have. There are beach toys, chairs, umbrella, and a canopy tent for the beach which was a plus! Though the beach access was great, we ended up making the short trip to Henderson State Beach Park to get away from the chair and umbrella vendors on the “private” beaches. Our group has already agreed on trying to return next year, even though we typically try to go somewhere new every year.

The house was very nice, updated, and well stocked. The setup is a bit to get used to though, as there is no inside passage between the 2 levels. Had to go outside to go upstairs and downstairs. We had 6 adults and 4 teenagers so it was fine for us. The property is very nice and well located to the activities around Destin.

Close to everything …

Stay was great. House is exactly as expected. Oist is very responsive and accomodating. Great trip and house for a family trip!

One of the best trips my family has ever taken! The house is beautiful, the walk to the beach is quick, it’s not noisy or crowded, the community pools were lovely, the private beach access was everything!! Management is very responsive and kind. We would absolutely stay here again. The only feedback I’d give is to get rid of the Glade plug-Ins in the house. The smell was so strong it gave us headaches.

Our family of 5 and our friends family of 4 stayed here and it was perfect for us! Plenty of room for everyone, seating for meals was great. The house was clean and had nice bathrooms. The garage was stocked with beach toys, chairs, umbrella and easy up canopy. It had a nice grille that we used. It was a short walk to the beach in a nice neighborhood. This area is perfect located at the back of gulf shore drive. We’ve been coming to Destin for 20+ years and easily one of our favorite properties.
