Clean, great furnishings, kitchen had everything we needed and great beach stuff for all ages. Easy walk to beach and chairs and umbrella provided was a nice touch. We’ve been renting places at the beach from Mexico Beach to Destin for 30+ years and this place ranked near the top in all areas.

Amazing!!
Another amazing stay in this house, it is our second time and plan on coming back next year. Perfect spot for beach and pool time. It is a beautiful unit. Love the updates and the oversized beach towels added this time. We enjoyed every minute of our time here. We had the best vacation ever. Our 2 year old and 4 year old had so much fun. Owners are super responsive and so nice as well. Wouldn’t change a thing about our stay.

Nice Destin location!
2 minute walk to the beach, 2 chairs ready for you by 9am in front of the waves, and 5-10 minute drive to all the restaurants you’d want to try on a Destin vacation. This listing is clean and was great for our stay. Wish there was the basic kitchen pantry items like salt, pepper, and cooking oil included but we enjoyed our stay!

Great Place
This is our 3rd time to the complex and second time in this unit. I loved the updates they did to the extra counter space/drink refrigerator since our last visit, you can tell the owner really cares about the guest experience. Great beach and comfy beds. If you do go and plan to eat in a lot - bring extra paper towels and trash bags - not a big deal but a friendly tip.

Nice accommodations and location!
Close to beach and right next to the pool! Spacious living area and well stocked pool toys and beach equipment locker. The only negatives were guest rooms quite cramped and what is stated as a queen bed was truly a full size. Towels were very worn and tattered and linens were stained which we noticed while stripping the beds.

Beach time
It was a great location. Super close to the beach and a short walk or drive for shoping. It was great and clean and well kept I would book it again. If I had to give it a negative it would be a bit hard to find the first time and for ordering out its hard for them to have an exact location. Thats it. Thats the only negative thing I can thank of so over all a great place woth it.

Perfect location
Perfectly situated townhome just yards away from a private beach that never got too crowded. The gated community was close to restaurants and shopping of all kinds, some within easy walking distance. The unit itself was well-appointed, comfortable, clean and included its own small patio with a grill. Linens were clean and plentiful. Bathrooms, kitchen, and appliances were all in great condition. Patrick & Rita took extra time to answer all of our (numerous) questions. This was a perfect getaway for a family of four.

Hidden Gem
We are so glad this property was available for our stay in Destin. Beach access was very easy. Just a few short steps to a wonderful private beach area. The pools were very nice. Especially, for our 4 year old. The kids pool was a hit! The unit was very clean and the communication with the owners was great! We even had a nice reception upon arrival from the neighbor. He provided us with some tasty New Orleans home cooking. We will Definitely return to this property when we visit Destin again!

A Learning Experience
The property was as described in VRBO. Our single issue with the patio sliding door was responded to quickly. Washer and dryer were well used, with rust visible on the dryer top. All towels were rough and scratchy even though quite plush, apparently fairly new. Fabric softener didn't help the situation.

Hit all the main points
We had a great time in this unit. We stayed for a week and we took advantage of the tennis courts, pool and the beautiful gulf beach. This unit is so close to everything you could possibly need in the area. Highly recommend this unit and renting this unit from the owners. Patrick was very thoughtful in that he contacted us prior to arrival to let us know the exterior of all the buildings had just been repainted a different color. He didn’t want us looking for the old color. We thought that was very thoughtful. We hope to be back in the near future again.

Great Destin Property
We have used VRBO several times over the years. The Destin FL experience was one of the best. It started with host Patrick Greene. He communicated clearly, often within minutes of a question. He and his cleaning staff were able to accommodate all requests. The property was extremely clean and very well appointed. Located in a quiet area, it is next to the swimming pool and a very short walk to a beautiful beach. Everything worked as advertised and made the stay very enjoyable. The addition of two chairs and an umbrella included in the rental fee was great. Extra chairs and umbrellas are available for a reasonable fee. Ask for Taylor, he will hook you up. If you are looking to spend some time on the beach in Destin, you should consider this property. We will be back. Thanks Patrick.
