Great beach access with not having to cross the busy road like many places in the area. House was clean and offered many extras such as beach chairs and baby gates. Easy access to restaurants and shopping.

A great get-away

We enjoyed our extended stay at Sunny Side Up. The kitchen was well stocked for any type of cooking. The home was lovely with every detail well thought out. We had one small maintenance issue about which we contacted John and he responded promptly and arranged to have it fixed the same day. Overall, we were very pleased and plan to return.

Family Holiday

Our family spent Christmas and New Years at Trishelle's beautiful home! The house is exactly as shown in the photos. The kitchen was wonderful, fully stocked with all cookware, plenty of dishes and glasses and silverware, for our party of 7. The pantry was also well stocked with spices and oils for cooking. The bedrooms were all spacious and comfortable for adults and kids alike. The beach umbrella and beach toys really made our beach visits more comfortable and fun! The location of the house is so convenient with a short and direct walk to the beach. The neighborhood is quiet and pleasant. Trishelle is a wonderful host, she always responded promptly to our questions or requests. We would definitely like to return to this gorgeous house!

Perfect beach access

Location and beach access was perfect. Communication with property manager was outstanding. We had a few questions/issues and they always responded immediately. House was a little lived in and could have been a little cleaner but overall we had a great time and the house met all of our needs.

Staying in this beach house made fall break better. We had lots of space. The beds were comfy. Our son loved the game room on the upper floor. The kitchen had everything we needed and more. We experienced no issues with check in/check out. Can’t wait to return.

Wonderful family vacation!

From booking to checkout, we had a great experience! The home was spotless upon check in and the host was so quick to respond to our request (extra pillowcases.) The house is very close to the beach and pool. There is a lot of seating on the main floor, plenty of outdoor seating/space, and it comfortably accommodated our party of 10. The home is well appointed and includes a small shed/garage with various beach items (some chairs, umbrellas, toys, etc) We loved our stay here and highly recommend it!

Great week!

Our entire family (ages ranging from 5-80) had an amazing week at Sunny Side Up. The house is stocked with everything you need and more! And, if you need something, Winn-Dixie is literally a minute away. We LOVED the fact that the street is so private and quiet and the beach is super easy to access. Trishelle was always quick to respond when we had questions (where to buy local fresh fish, forgotten pool gate code). Hope we can return to SSU someday soon!

Sunny Smiles

Sunny Side Up was perfect for our family. We had 6-11 people in and out. We had plenty of room for all of us and our dogs. We brought our groceries and ate every meal but 1 there. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook for that many people. I was very pleased with the closeness of the beach access. We went back and forth several times a day.

Our daughter with family traveled from Dallas Tx, our son with family traveled from Greenville SC. My husband and I came form Atlanta, totaling 4 children and 6 adults. The house was perfect for 3 families to stay. Plenty of room, the best stocked kitchen I have ever experienced. Very close to the beach and easy access out of neighborhood to major roads. Gives the impression of a quiet beach neighborhood. Will for sure return.

About the host

Hosted by Trishelle Cannatella

Host profile image
This beach home was purchased in November 2019 by John and Trishelle, who are New Orleans residents and world-wide travelers. We love the idea of having a place to visit in Destin, which we consider to have some of the most stunning beaches in the world. We hope you enjoy our beach house and that you come back year after year!

Why they chose this property

We chose this property because of proximity to beach! One of the things Trishelle found most important was easy beach access, without crossing streets, driving or needing to take a golf cart. This place was perfect. Not to mention the pool and beautiful kitchen!

What makes this property unique

Destin Sunny Side Up is located in a quiet community and feels like you are vacationing in a true beach home, yet you are a short walk to shops, a grocery store, coffee shops and restaurants.
