Great place for a family of five to stay!
We loved our stay at “A Wave” in Destin! The location is perfect as it is very close to beach access and all the shops and restaurants you can ask for. The beach access was super convenient. The boardwalk to crystal beach is a stones throw away from the house and you have a spot with two chairs and an umbrella reserved for you. The house was extremely clean and has all the amenities and essentials you need for your stay. Can’t forget about the golf cart, which was very fun to drive around the neighborhood and nearby restaurants on the beach. I hope to bring our family back to “A Wave” in the future!

Perfect family getaway
The home was very clean. We had quick access to the beach and the beach chairs/umbrella were definitely a plus. The golf cart allowed us to get most places very quickly. I highly recommend this rental.

Great Family Trip
The house was very cozy and comfy. Enjoyed days and nights by the private pool. The beach access with the golf cart was super easy. Loved the neighborhood and convenience to the grocery, dining, and shops in town. We had a great trip and made lots of memories.

Lovely home and great location!
Absolutely loved this house! The location was superb and we were able to use their golf cart to access groceries, restaurants, book store and shopping. They have a lovely private pool, a short walk to the beach and the complimentary beach chairs with umbrella took it to the next level. All the beds were comfy and the kitchen was well stocked. We’ve been coming to Destin for 15 years and this house felt like a home away from home. We will definitely be returning.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location.

They were extremely attentive and easy with booking process. The home is in need of renovation and upgrade. We did have a few roaches and the out door furniture was very worn. There was also a few mold areas on floor and behind couch. The maintenance on wash machine and pull out sleeper was promptly addressed. Destin is a beautiful area for family fun

Great location and private pool
Location is really good, close to beach. Beach chair service was a great perk. Kitchen fully stocked and comfy beds. Pictures were accurate for house. House was clean and comfortable. As pics show it’s a little dated in decor/finishes, but again accurately represented. Heater on pool worked great for 65 degree spring days. Didn’t know the owner lived on-site when booking, but it was not intrusive (and they were very kind). Lots of spring breakers in the area, but sheriff did a good job monitoring. Would stay again with our family.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved our rental. Any issues we had were corrected fast and efficient. Location was perfect! Included golf cart was wonderful. The private pool was great for us as most days the beach flags were red or double red. We could go to the beach for awhile, but always had the pool to cool off in. Close to everything you would need. Perfect for our family of 7.

Clean and Amenities
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was clean and had amenities such as a full kitchen, televisions in every room, dryer and washer that were in good working condition. Each bedroom had access to a bathroom that was furnished with clean towels and starter supplies. The property had a pool and deck with chairs and umbrellas. It was an older home so it did need updating with mattresses and general decor. Fragista did a great job with contacting us by phone and email checking on our stay.

More than enough
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: A Wave From it all was the perfect location for our vacation stay.The beach was just a 2 minute walk which was amazing.The house itself had everything we needed,our dog was able to walk around the whole house as if she was home and that made us feel amazing.Our fryer broke the second day there and management was quick with the turnaround when it came to fixing the issue,they ended up giving us a new dryer the next day.The house was clean and we are also not the type of people that go on vacation to go through everything and try to complain about the cleanliness,it wasn’t perfect but it was good.The only thing I suggest is that the bed upstairs to the left of the stairs might need to be changed because the mattress caves in the middle and you can see that while you are standing but we slept great but getting a new mattress for that room would make it so much better.Hopefully,when we go back in a couple of months this property is still available.

6/10 Okay

Owners were nice, house was ok.
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We were very excited to arrive at the house which seemed wonderful in pictures. The location was excellent and the golf cart was our favorite part! I’m only reviewing this comparing it to other homes we’ve rented nearby. Maybe our expectations were high because of the price we paid for it. First of all, the house needs a little bit of updates. The furniture in the living room were not comfortable, seemed very old and even the sofa bed would bend in the middle. There was no pantry, we had to put everything on the countertop. The bathtub we used upstairs would fill up to our ankles in only the first 5 min. The pool was nice, just seemed like the cleaning lady wouldn’t make it feel welcoming. All of the pillows from the chairs were everywhere but on the chairs, maybe they set them to dry but didn’t put them back on. All in all, the owners were helpful when the AC stopped working, they took care of it quickly. But the house needs a little more updates all around.

Nice place for family and close to the beach
Very nice and clean place to stay. Would’ve been nice if there were general things like salt, pepper, sugar, tin foil, condiments, and more toilet paper. We enjoyed our stay and left some salt/pepper/extra toilet paper ☺️
