What a great area! The heated pool was so nice as the temps were in the 60s. Gold art included was an awesome bonus. Beach entrance and nice restaurant less than 1/2 mile away! Shannon our host was just a text away. Home was accommodating. Had everything we needed.

Wonderful place to visit!

Our family had an amazing time here, so nice to have all the amenities like a heated pool, golf cart as well as access to the playground, pickleball court etc. The house was well equipped with everything, and we would happily recommend to future guests! It was a short walk to the beach which was honestly the best beach we’ve ever seen!

Perfect getaway house for travelers with toddlers

The owners responded to every question and inquiry that we had. We noticed that the pool skimmer was ripped while we were trying to clean out the pool from the storm that came through, and they had a new skimmer delivered that same day and had a pool cleaners come out finish cleaning. They helped get streaming services to work, and never made me feel like I was an inconvenience to them. No matter how many time I texted them haha.The house was perfect for toddlers because there was no small “nic-nicks” for them to grab or break. This is a very minimalistic house with all the comforts of home you will need. It’s close to the beach and restaurants but in a quiet gated neighborhood. So, when you need to get away from the beach crowd the house is only a 5 minute golf cart ride away! I will book again when we return to Destin!We had a great time, and the house made it more comfortable for us! :)

Great Family Home

Location was excellent and the home was perfect for our family as every one had space and privacy. The Six-Seater golf cart was awesome and made for easy parking at the beach and restaurants. The pool and pool area offered great sun plus shade for those looking for less sun. The kitchen was well equiped. The hosts were very attentive.

Family spring break

This property was great. Large enough for everyone in our family to spread out. We loved playing board games and sitting watching movies at night. The kids really enjoyed the swimming pool. Having the golf cart available to go to the beaches, stores and around the complex was a real help. We loved our stay here.

Family Vacation

Had a wonderful time, kids loved swimming in the heated pool and loved night time swims with the lights. The golf cart was an added bonus for going to the nearby beach and kids loved riding in it! Loads of room and multiple bathrooms a plus! Great gated neighborhood, felt so safe. Communication with owners via text and being able to check in early was so very nice for me to get ready for the family's arrival. Would definitely stay here again!

Grates Place Review

Outside of the floors not being fully cleaned, the property itself was an A+. The property owners were great at communicating with us. The house was stocked with everything we could need and then some, including beach/pool toys and chairs, linens, towels, and fully stocked kitchen and appliances, bikes, golf cart, etc. It's a quick golf cart ride to the beach and house is close to nearby restaurants/grocery. We would definitely stay again.

Best trip to Destin yet

The hosts were always available to communicate with and we were able to check in a little earlier since the property was ready early. Instructions were very helpful and the check-out process was minimal which was great compared to other places we’ve stayed at with a long extensive check out list. The heated pool was a major plus as well since we came in mid-November and having the bikes, golf cart, and gated community amenities was also a major plus. We would recommend staying here to anyone and we will book a stay here again!

Great house and great location

The house is well maintained and the host,Shannon, is great at communicating on a timely basis for any issues or questions. Location to beach, restaurants, grocery stores, etc.is outstanding. The amenities in Destiny East were great- pool, gym, pickleball court. Lastly, the golf cart was a fun and useful addition making getting around very simple.

Lots to do at this porpertyy

We had a great time at this property. Shannon, the owner, was very responsive and helpful. The golf cart was great because we had access to the beach from our neighborhood and it was also handy for getting to the neighborhood pickle ball courts and hot tub. We enjoyed the heated pool in the backyard since we came in January and the weather was not perfect. We enjoyed the nearby shopping and restaurants and would definitely come to this area again. Definitely one of our best family vacations!

Disappointing

The house was nice. There were cobwebs in the kitchen corners (we cleaned them). The mattress pad in the main level bedroom was filthy. We didn’t have hot water on Friday and Saturday morning. We had five girls that needed showers, we had laundry to do and dishes in the dishwasher. It did not get repaired before we left. I feel I should be compensated for these things because it did hinder the end of our trip. I don’t want to give a poor online review but I believe future guests should be aware of these issues.

Winter get away

The house was very nice. Fit our family of 10 perfectly. The golf cart and bikes were an added bonus. With 10 people I would suggest more towels. We had 1 set of towels per person so with little kids we were washing towels every night. Had an issue with the alarm system which we weren’t aware the house even had one. There was no info on it. Also the pool heater didn’t work but the owners got someone there as soon as they could. We had 3 days of a beautiful heated pool. Close to the beach and in a very nice neighborhood. Would definitely rent again.
