Family vaca

House was very nice very large family area room for all. Master bedroom was ridiculous large and convenient to family area. 3rd floor was very warm during the day but cooled down at night. Hole home seemed to be warm we had fans that helped I do not think thermostat was working right. All and all we enjoyed our stay it was nice the beach was in walking distance which was great because parking at the beach was very limited.

Nice Single Family Size

This was a great place for Mom and Dad plus six kids. The pool and patio are super convenient. The kitchen was nice and well stocked. Loved the fridge! Laundry was a little old, but did the job. Jack and Jill upstairs rooms were good. Upstairs bedroom was too hot to really use but not sure what else they can do about that. (I wouldn't plan on using that as an actual sleeping room.) We appreciated the decor and the master was peaceful with a nice view of the lake. The location of a short walk to the beach was lovely, and we enjoyed the nearby community pool. Nice option to use the beach wagon. Gated community felt secure. House was clean and the perfect place for a family to vacation in Destin.

Best Vacation!

Best trip to Destin that we have had! This beach house was absolutely amazing! Kris made every part of our stay easy. Great communication! We traveled with all of our kids and grandkids for a total of 14 people and there was more than enough room for everyone. It was perfect! Not even a 10 minute walk to the beach! We will be booking through Kris again! Thank you! ❤️
