Villa Playa - Vacation House in Destiny by the Sea Near the Beach with Private Pool

This was an amazing property. We enjoyed our stay immensely the house is right next to Beach access there were so many positives. It’s hard to figure out where to begin.

Beautiful place. Very well located and the photos represented the house as it is. Very well equipped. Recommended

This place is fully stocked. Everything in kitchen you could need. Garage area had tons of toys, chairs, umbrellas for beach. Unlike a lot of rentals, this place had it all. Would highly recommend.

Safety for me personally is a huge deal. This house is located in a fantastic gated community right on the beach. There is without a doubt that i will be back to this property.

I stayed at Villa Playa with a family of 15. 1 8 year old and the rest were 18 up to 55. We had a great time and loved the house. The positives are the closeness to the beach. It is a very short walk across the street and it made it easy to go back and forth. There were many chairs, umbrellas and beach toys made available in a storage closet in the garage. There is also a second refrigerator in the garage that was very helpful with a big group of people. The house was well stocked with kitchen supplies and plenty of sets of packaged towels. More than enough for everyone. Although the pool is very small, it is great. We loved coming back from the beach and jumping in. The bedrooms are spacious and the beds were comfortable The biggest negative is the security in the neighborhood. Quiet time is 10pm and if you are making any noise at all on the balcony, the security guard will come by and threatened to fine you. A few nights there was a nice security guard , but several nights the guy wasn't very nice. The houses on all sides are very close and you can see right in each others windows. Overall, the house is great and I think you would enjoy your stay here

Great Location. Home was nice in a great neighborhood with close proximity to all the great things Destin has to offer.

Renting process was great!

First of all, this house is in a gated neighborhood and you to go through a security check to get into the property. The security person at the gate was very rude. Our family arrives at different time and the security guy was giving us a hard time because he expected each car to have an entry tag to get in the gate. He follow us to the house to make sure we were guest there. The second problem was the parking. You can not park on the side of the street or blocking the side walk. We were told to move out cars because the tail of the car was slightly blocking the side walk. If you have multiple cars, good luck with the parking! Third, the swimming pool is tiny. The dimension is probably 4x7. We were expecting a bigger pool. Two people might be able to swim at a time. Also, in-order to get to the back yard, you have to go through one of the bedroom. If someone is occupying the bedroom, there is no way to get to the backyard. Fourth, there are multiple things broken in the house. Toilet downstairs were broken. We had to call someone to come fix it. The faucet in the bathroom in one of the room was broken. Last, this house is not meant for little kids. To get in the house, you will have to walk up some tile steps. Very steep, slippery and dangerous. Same problem when you are inside the house, there are steps connectiong the kitchen to the living room that were the same way. The security, parking and tiny swimming pool really ruin our vacation.

This house had everything we needed. Location, secluded, security of a gated community and every amenity you could ask for. Check in/out was simple. We will definitely be back and let others know about this rental property. Perfect for large groups/families.

Our family reunion was blessed to share 2 homes during our stay in Destiny by the Sea. This home had the added bonus of having an elevator to navigate the 3 floors! The furnishings were marvelous and very comfortable throughout. My only recommendation would be to upgrade balcony furniture on the 3rd floor Master suite.

We spent a week in this lovely home with 4 other couples. The bedrooms all have private baths and the beds are super comfortable! The kitchen had everything we needed to cook fabulous meals including a shrimp boil one night and green drinks every morning! This gated community is within walking distance from plenty of restaurants and the beach access is so very close! Bikes were a nice perk! We will definitely vacation in this home again!!!
