Annual Anniversary Getaway

This is our second year in a row staying at "Miss Ellie" and we couldnt have been happier. The home is beautiful and so well appointed we continue to be impressed year after year. The location to the beach and local shopping is perfect. We can't wait to come back again in 2026!

Peaceful

The house is close to shops and the beach. I really have nothing bad to say. There was a lot of room and loved that there were several sitting areas. I liked the enclosed area. The children would go there in the morning which helped not wake people up. If I had something to say would be that I didn’t realize there was not a hairdryer or salt and pepper. I ordered a Walmart delivery the next morning which was great!!

Best in Destin

This property was fantastic. Extra attention was given to the decor inside and out. Everything was perfect. Close to the beach and shopping. We called the property manager to replace a water filter in the fridge (minor issue I know) but it was addressed immediately. The AC was acting strange, ( taken care of immediately) This was truly a place that you could call home.I would recommend staying at Miss Ellie to anyone. I only wish it was available for our next trip to Destin.5 stars for sure

Lovely multi-family getaway

This was the perfect home for our multi-family reunion/vacay. The open layout is awesome for entertaining the family as well as having private time in the sunroom. 15 minute walk from the beach was doable but highly recommend you rent a golfcart to get around the lovely beach town. Our family had a wonderful time.

Home away from home

My family and I loooooved our stay at Miss Ellie's! It is spacious and cozy all at the same time. When we go out of town we love to check out local restaurants but also still enjoy making meals at home and that was so easy to do here! This kitchen had everything I needed. All of the furniture is very comfortable (beds, chairs, sofas) for a long stay. Such a quiet, calm and BEAUTIFUL neighborhood too! I would highly recommend this house to anyone and would love to go back one day too!
