Our family had a wonderful time in Destin. The property is in a great location and comfortably accommodates eight people. We appreciated having a small pool nearby for days when we preferred not to visit the beach.
However, if you plan on cooking during your stay, be aware that the kitchen lacks some basic essentials. There were only two small pans and a wok available for cooking, along with a single serving bowl. Additionally, there were no oven mitts or pot holders for handling hot items from the oven. On the positive side, there were plenty of dishes and drinking cups.
The appliances in the house are somewhat outdated; for instance, the dryer took a long time to dry our clothes. The beds, although comfortable, were quite squeaky with every movement. The kids loft area was perfect for the teens to sleep and hang out.
Lastly, having an additional outdoor trash can would be great to have as there was only one provided.
The house is amazing, just how it looked in the listing. Very beautiful very close to the pool and the beach was about a 7-10 minute walk. If we would drive it was a 1-2 minute drive to the beach. Over all everything was great and would rebook for our yearly family vacation!
Great house in a quiet neighborhood. Pool was great, amd distance to the beach wasn't bad at all. Company was great to deal with a fixed a few minor issues very quickly.
This home is beyond perfect. Very clean, in excellent condition, cozy, quite neighborhood, close walk to the beach, restaurants, shops and a local coffee shop. Furnishings were beautiful, loved the rocking chairs on the front porch and the pool across the street. We had a wonderful time and felt at home.
They house was great, loved that it had 4 full restrooms. It was super clean and comfortable. Nicely updated. Just a short drive down the street to the beach for public parking, it was packed but we luckily never had problems getting parking with people coming and going pretty frequently. One suggestion pack light smaller coolers for drinks and snacks. We struggled rolling ours through the sand the first day and switched to our smaller coolers the rest of the week, that was much easier. Definitely recommend staying here. Would do it again but fly instead of drive from Austin!
