Great place to stay for your family

Doctors Orders 2 was a perfect house for our family of 10. There was room for everyone and our 11 year old grandson loved the 3rd floor crow's nest. The kitchen was wonderful with every appliance you might need. The short walk to the beach was great and as advertized, the beach was not at all crowded. The kid's had a great time in the pool also. Location was perfect to everything we wanted to do. Would stay there again!

Truly what the doctor ordered...

From the location at the end of a quiet street, to the beach access an easy two blocks away, to the top floor deck - our family had a wonderful time unwinding and recharging. House was clean and comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked and the beach chairs were an added plus to not have to travel with so much "stuff". And the beach access - so happy to have picked a place that didn't require driving/parking/sharing public beach access with the masses. When back in Destin, will definitely stay here again.

Fun family getaway for an 85th birthday!

Incredible location with close easy access to the white sand beaches of Destin while being in a quiet neighborhood. Easy check in, house super clean, contents of house tasteful, arty and functional, lots of kitchen cookware and eating utensils of high quality plus numerous beach toys and 4 cruiser bikes. Owner very responsive before, during and after our visit. Have wonderful memories! Feeling very thankful.

Beautiful home, short walk to private beach

We had a wonderful stay here! This home is on a dead end street, quiet and private. The pool was perfect for a dip to cool off and hang out when we wanted time off from the beach. It’s a short walk to the beach where we had access to a private section of Crystal Beach. Beach is stunning! After a long day of fun and sun, we came back to rest up in this beautiful home. Ken and Franni were very responsive to our messages. We will be back!

July family vacation

The house was beautiful and the layout was perfect for our group! The house was very clean and stocked with everything you could possibly think of for our stay. The beds were very comfortable. We loved the screened in covered porches! We were able to enjoy the outdoors even through an afternoon of rainy weather. It was nice to have the grill in a covered area so close to the kitchen also! The front room with the covered porch was a perfect spot for my mom to sit and watch the grandkids in the pool. The pool was very nice and well maintained. The walk to the beach was short and nice and it was great to have the private area of beach that wasn’t so crowded! The owners were wonderful and very quick to respond when I had questions prior to our visit. We definitely would stay here again and would recommend to other families as well!

Family Vacation

“Doctor’s Orders” has a wonderful pool and the private neighborhood with private beach access is what makes this house amazing. Unfortunately we did have to deal with gas/plumbing repairs (apparently previous tenant left and grill stopped working and then a permanent gas grill line was being installed) and an HVAC repairman check (no HVAC complaints from us) both while we were there. As a fellow owner of rental properties I understand the need to schedule things but it was a bummer to have multiple interruptions. I also appreciated the attentiveness of the owners but also prefer less communication unless I feel the need to reach out. Overall the house was very nice and I would stay there again and recommend it to others.

Quiet peaceful tropical retreat.

Our family of 4 enjoyed every inch of this stunning property. The covenant private beach access as well as private beach accommodations made for a very relaxing 7day stay. Comfy beds, beach accessories, bikes, pool, multiple flat screened smart TV's and several screened in porches all with a variety of beautiful views. The high end linens and tropical decor was enjoyed by all. This place was light, bright updated and aesthetically pleasing. This peaceful beach retreat was sparkly clean with a well appointed kitchen & updated appliances, washer/dryer that my family truly benefitted from during our week long stay. You won't want to miss taking in the stunning sunsets every night on the breathtakingly beautiful white sandy beach. We were thrilled to have found this beautiful island gem. 🏖🏝🍹

Just what my doctor ordered!!!!

Our stay at Doctors Orders Destin was nothing short of extraordinary! From the moment we arrived, we were captivated by the stunning views and the serene ambiance of this beautiful property. The interior of the beach house is clean, cozy and perfect for a relaxing getaway with friends or family! Every room is tastefully decorated, with touches that make you feel right at home. The spacious living area was perfect for game night, and the screen in porches were perfect for morning coffee! The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you could possibly need, and we loved preparing meals while listening to music together. The bedrooms are comfortable and airy, with plush beds and linens that were clean and very comfortable! The bathrooms are were updated and clean as well. One of the highlights of our trip was the expansive deck and private pool. We spent countless hours lounging on the deck chairs, sipping coffee in the morning and wine in the evening. The location of the beach house is ideal, offering both convenience and tranquility! We can't wait to visit again soon. 5 stars all around!!

Great home for families, and short walk to the beach!

My parents, my family, and my sister's family had a wonderful stay at Doctor's Orders 2! The house location is great-- located at the end of a dead-end street, so we had very little traffic. It is an easy walk to the private beach gate at the end of the street, and the owners provide a wagon along with beach chairs, umbrellas, and toys to use during the stay. The house has a big living room downstairs and also four balconies/porches to hang out on. We utilized the big coffee table in the living room for puzzles and other crafts during the week. We enjoyed listening to the frogs, toads, birds and other wildlife in the lush area behind the house. The pool in front of the house was a big hit with our teens (and parents too!), it was a great place to hang out and cool off during the day. The owners are very responsive to any questions or needs-- I highly recommend Doctor's Orders 2 if you need a place to stay in Destin!

Nice & Convenient

Arrival and owner communication was easy and smooth. They checked in on us from time to time to see how we were doing. The house had everything we needed; some startup items such as trash bags, paper towels, dish soap, coffee and toilet paper were provided. They also have chairs and a beach cart that we utilized. There is a private, quaint pool on property. It was the perfect size for our kids to enjoy between beach visits. The beach is walking distance. We had some trouble with the beach gate code a couple times because it seemed the buttons on the gate were sticking intermittently. No big deal...if this happens, you can just walk around the side of hotel right near gate for beach access. Our last night there (in the tropical storm) was interrupted when the ceiling in one of the rooms leaked. It was a bummer, but it happens especially in that kind of weather. The owners took care of us and fairly accommodated us for our trouble. Provided the leak is repaired, I would have no qualms recommending this house and/or staying there again with our family.

Owner addressed any issues in timely manner. Short 5 min walk to the beach which was much less crowded than the public beaches. Well worth it. Lots of sand toys, few umbrellas and some wagons on property already which was great.
