Experience Your Vacation Haven

Step into the lap of luxury at our 'Elegant Ocean Paradise,' the quintessential Destin vacation home that promises an experience beyond compare. This contemporary gem, along with the provided 6 seat golf cart, serves as your exclusive gateway to the unparalleled charm of the Florida coastline.

As you cross the threshold, an air of sophistication envelops you. Picture a grand foyer, where a soaring 15-foot ceiling and an abundance of natural light create an atmosphere of timeless elegance. This is not just a residence; it's a sanctuary where every detail has been thoughtfully curated to ensure a stay that escapes the ordinary.

Our 3-bedroom, 2-bath haven redefines the concept of luxury living. Imagine a private, screened lanai embracing a saltwater pool, its tranquil waters reflecting the Florida sun. The gentle murmur of a garden waterfall adds a touch of serenity to this outdoor oasis, making it your personal retreat. The master suite, with its own private door leading to a screened lanai and pool, provides an intimate escape. The master bath boasts a spacious jetted tub, double vanities, a glass-enclosed shower, and a walk-in closet.

The heart of the home beats in the open-concept living, kitchen, and dining areas. Here, family memories unfold against the backdrop of the quintessential Florida lifestyle – a seamless blend of comfort and style.

Privacy is paramount, with guest bedrooms discreetly tucked away on the opposite side of the residence. The transition to gas heating, featuring a fireplace, stove, dryer, and an outdoor grill and pool heater (with an additional cost for pool heat at $325 + tax/reservation), introduces a modern touch to enhance your stay.

Modern conveniences abound, with Smart TVs in all bedrooms and the pool area. Accommodating up to 10 individuals, the sleeping arrangements include a King bed in the Master, a Queen in the second bedroom, a bunk bed featuring a Full over a Full with a Twin trundle in the third bedroom, and a Queen sleeper sofa in the living area. For added flexibility, two roll-away cots are at your disposal.

Your journey extends beyond the residence itself. A 6-seater golf cart awaits to effortlessly transport you to community amenities and beach access. This isn't just a vacation; it's an immersive Destin vacation home experience, where luxury meets the enchantment of the Florida coast.

Perfect vacation getaway

My husband and I enjoyed our time in Destin. We’ve stayed in the Destiny East neighborhood several times before but we loved this house the best. It was super clean, had everything we needed, and, when we had a minor issue with one of the tvs, the property management sent someone to fix it within a few hours. The house is beautiful and pool was perfect. Lots of privacy around the pool which we appreciated. Golf cart worked great and location is super close to the beach. We would definitely return to this property.

2023 Easter break

This house was perfect for our family of 7. It was in a great location and had awesome accommodations. The private pool was utilized daily and came in handy for the rainy days. Though we didn't use the golf cart as much (weather wasn't that great), it was very close to the beach access and nearby restaurants. We would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Very nice house, clean, great location. The golf cart was very useful and fun. It was a little cold during our stay so paying for the pool heater was definitely worth it. The kitchen did have all the necessary equipment but nothing else, not even salt or pepper. Definitely felt like vacation.

Hidden fees

The stay was great. But we were charged for someone else parking their Porsche on our grass while we were away at the water park. We only brought our vehicle. Instead of contacting us, they sent an email stating we were charged $50 on our card. When I reached out, I was informed I would have to wait on the appeal to go through the HOA. Oh and that would take a week! Poor business practices. We won’t book with them again.

Destiny East

This overall was a great stay. I found it interesting that we are asked to deal with trash, yet no extra trash bags, 😂 A notebook with instructions on how things in the house would be helpful. We suspect there was too much chlorine in the pool. My swimsuit faded. While we paid for a heated pool, I recommend a thermometer to see if it was really 82 degrees. This is a beautiful home & is so nice you really enjoy just hanging around there. Close to beach & the golf cart was great.

Summer Stay

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This was a really nice house lots of space, I was a little disappointed that it was not as close to the beach as I thought it would be. We had to drive a little bit to get to the public side of the beach. I dont think we had private beach access. If we did we were never told. I did had trouble getting in the house the first day our code was not working had to call customer service but they were able to help me pretty fast. One thing I did not like is that someone kept going in the garage to remove the trash bins and to place them back inside. I thought that was kind of weird that someone had access to the house while people in it. other than that the house itself was really nice.

Beautiful House, Great Location but experienced several maintenance issues

Our favorite parts of this rental were the location to beach and the pool area in the back. Overall the house was clean and beautiful and we had a great time. However, we did experience A LOT of maintenance issues that required daily communication with the management. While they were attentive to our needs, it just seemed to be a daily occurrence that something was messed up. Upon check-in, the door code wasn't working, which caused some initial inconvenience. Additionally, the freezer had been slightly left open, so the drawers were frozen shut and freezer would not close properly. The pool did not have enough water in it; we contacted the management on day two, they wanted me to send another picture the next day and if it was the same then sent someone out. The dishwasher was broken as well and did not work except for the last two days of our stay. The microwave also caught fire, luckily my husband was standing right there as he had just turned it on. We liked that they provided beach chairs; however, we found that a few of the beach chairs only sat in a very reclined position. Luckily for those after us, these issues are fixed. Additionally, some things I wished I would have known prior to booking: the golf cart is to be used inside the community resort and not taken outside. Also, the management company provides 1 trash bag, minimal laundry and dishwasher detergent which did require us to go get some of these household items which is kind of inconvenient for travelers.
