Wonderful home and neighborhood

This was easy check in and we got early check in. The house is beautiful . There are a few small things that need fixed but overall wonderful stay. The beds were comfortable and it was very clean . The 2 golf carts were such a bonus we got a lot of use out of them. The neighborhood was beautiful . The pool was nice and the space was perfect for our family of 8. We brought my grandpa on his 90th birthday. Would deff stay again

Great vacation location

The house was wonderful and roomy for our very large group, we had room to spread out and not be on top of each other. Our only disappointment is that the pool wasn’t clean or clear. Destin couldn’t get any better. Great place to be on vacation.

Fabulous time in Destin

Our family vacation in Destin East was a huge hit with the entire family! Our proximity to the beach, the spacious living areas and built in pool were fabulous! We were slightly disappointed in the “tired” conditions in the property, not all of appliances worked properly and furniture was in less than ideal condition.

Peaceful Vacation

The property was very spacious. Easily accommodated 11 adults and 1 one child. Enjoyed the private pool. The six and four passenger golf cart made it extremely easy to get to the beach. I would definitely return.

Great Family Get Away

The property was just as pictured (except the size of the pool is a bit tinier than it looks) Very clean. There was plenty of room for all eleven of us! Plenty of sleeping space. And plenty of room to get to yourself when needed. The kitchen could use a bit of updating on items, but it was still great! We enjoyed our week, just wished we had been able to book longer!

Pearl of Destiny

We thought the house was a perfect size for our group however it was lacking in a few amenities. There needs to be plastic glasses, etc. to utilize around the pool. Also, the door code had to be reset a few times because it stopped working. The pool person let us know there was a leak in the pool and the heat was inconsistent. The garage door stopped working at one point and maintenance had to come over. The curtains were falling down in the main floor bedroom. And painting wasn't complete in the guest house where curtain rods and towel rods were replaced. It worked ok for our group but I probably wouldn't rent this place again.

Beach house

The house was beautiful and in a great location. Great amenities however we felt constantly targeted by an employee. The community was not friendly to vacationers. I made a complaint but did not receive a response.

We wish it had been closer to beach but golf carts were helpful for carrying everyone to the beach. Overall we had a great time and would recommend to others if you have a large group and don't mind a short ride to the beach.

Great space!

Our stay was amazing! We had 15 people total- 7 of which were children. The home itself had more space than expected and everyone was surprised at area of individual space/rooms/beds. However the best part was that there was large areas where we all could gather and spend time together. The house was located in a cul de sac on a quiet street. It was not far from the beach or from our favorite restaurant. The golf carts were great and provided a faster/easier/more fun way to get around.
