Mama's Happy home made all of us HAPPY!!!!!

We have stayed in several homes in St. George Island, Tarpon Springs and Topsail and none of them compare to Mama's Happy!!!! The location, layout of home and pool were exactly what we were looking for. Chris and Janet were very accommodating and replied to all of our questions via email within an hour. This is a great home to vacation and we look forward to returning soon!

Beautiful vacation home!

We had a wonderful time here, the house is in a great location. The street is very quiet yet a short walk to the beach and very close to shopping and restaurants. The home is very nicely decorated and had everything we needed. Everyone loved having the private pool. Janet was always available to answer any questions immediately. I would definitely rent this house again.

Loved it! The house was beautiful, clean, well stocked with cookware. It was a short walk to the beach. The beach was clean, the waters was clear and calm, the sand was white sand. Great beach for little children to enjoy. lots of activities available for older kids and adults.

Great Home

We were extremely happy with our stay at Mamas Happy! The home had everything you could possibly need! Great pool! Accommodations were great too! We had 8 adults and 7 kids and had tons of space. Beach was a very short distance to walk! Panhandle has the most gorgeous beaches in Florida by far. Janet and Chris were great to work with. Hope to come back soon!

A Winter Respite!

We had a lovely winter stay at 'Mama's Happy'. The home was well decorated, comfortable, close to the beach and good restaurants. Try 790 on the Gulf, Boschamps, Chipolte and Cantina Laredo. Terrific! Janet, the Manager, was excellent to deal with. We enjoyed a peaceful stay away from the cold and snow of Canada! Highly recommend this beautiful home!

Mama and the rest of our crew were super Happy!

We truly enjoyed our stay. It was me and my husband, nine teenagers and our four legged baby. The proximity to the beach was awesome, the pool was perfect for a swim after the beach. We love to cook and really enjoyed the grill and the kitchen. Having shopping for our girls so close by was a win for the rainy day. The Beach House is our favorite restaurant in Destin and it was a short drive. The walk/running access to get some exercise in each day was great too. We would certainly stay here again!

Great vacation

Mamma's Happy was a fabulous rental home. We had 4 families (18 people) and we had room for everyone. The home was very nice and had all the amenities we needed. It was a short walk to the beach and having the private pool was wonderful. I felt like we were in a very safe neighborhood and Janet was helpful with any needs or questions that we had. The home was also very close to restaurants, Destin Commons shopping, Big Kahuna waterpark, go carts, outlet malls, etc. It was the perfect location. We look forward to returning.

Big and extremely beautiful home

We absolutely loved everything about the house and the neighborhood. The master suite is amazing We had a blast. The house was immaculate. The kids spend most of their time in the pool. We wanted to book again for the same time next year but the price has gone up tremendously and is outside of what we budget for the family trip, so maybe another year.

What a place!

Everything about Mama's Happy was fantastic. We had 15 people and we never felt crowded. The pool occupied the kids and adults for hours. We cooked most nights and the kitchen was set up perfectly. The beach is very close and the rental came with everything you need. Janet was extremely responsive and great to deal with. Overall, the trip could not have been better and Mama's house was a big reason why. We hope to be back next year!

Perfect location and super clean!

This home was the best choice we have made in a rental. It's less than a block from the beach, short walk to shopping and restaurants and we even walked to church! We literally got in our vehical once in a week and that was my goal. It was so perfect for my young kids. They lived in the pool. Adults loved it too! If we had questions, the rental agency was very prompt. The only sad part was packing up.

Mama's Happy made Mama happy!

This place is great! The pictures do not do it justice. The decor is beautiful! The family room, dining room and kitchen have a great open concept. We had 18 people staying here in the two houses and we were all very comfortable. The kitchen is well-stocked and we had plenty of bath towels each day....we just had to wash them every couple of days. It was a short walk to the beach and there was a cart and plenty of beach chairs provided. We would definitely stay here again!!

Our new favorite place to vacation in Florida!

We have vacationed many places along the Panhandle of Florida and Destin is now our favorite! Staying at Mama's Happy made our trip extremely enjoyable. We took our 10 month old son on his first trip and the set up at Mama's Happy was perfect for us. The only con I would say about the location is that the public beach access from the house is not a very big beach area and fills up quickly (the condos on both sides of public access have it blocked off for condo tenants only to use), so if you want room to set up your things comfortably I would get there early. Overall, we will definitely return to Destin and if we go with a larger group would love to stay at this house again. Thanks to the owners for a pleasant stay!!!

Nice house although I think it is ridiculous that you have to buy your own toilet paper, trash bags, soap, and paper towels for how much this property costs. Also the price to heat the pool is ridiculous and it wasn't even heated when we arrived

The whole package!

We enjoyed this property for a long weekend with three other couples! It was amazing and everyone had their own private bedroom and bath. Every inch of the house has been updated with beautiful finishes that include a chef's quality kitchen and spa quality baths. The house is just steps from the white sandy beaches and minutes to area shopping and restaurants. We are already planning a week in the summer with our children and grandchildren.... looking forward to a dip in the pool after we return from the beach. Of course the outdoor gas grill is always a bonus, means the men can cook!
