Beautiful place and pool was awesome. The only thing missing is a golf cart where most of the houses provide one with the rental but we rented our golf cart and it was perfect also. I loved being able to bring our small dog on vacation with us. We will definitely consider this home again.

Nice Destin House with Heated Pool

Overall we were very happy with the house. It was very clean, the rental agent was responsive, close to the beach, and a great neighborhood. The only complaint was that I thought the separate "hot tub" in the backyard was a true hot tub that could be heated independently. It's actually just an extension of the pool. I guess the Hot Tub in the listing refers to the one at the neighborhood pool. Nonetheless, we were able to heat the whole pool so that it was plenty warm to swim in despite the cooler weather (which was great). It was close to the beach, although we drove as it was a bit longer of a walk than I would prefer if carrying a lot of beach gear. The beaches were beautiful. There were only 4 pool towels for our reservation of 5, so would recommend bringing your own. It was a great place to spend the week.

Perfect Florida Vacation

My mother and I spent a week at this rental and couldn't have asked for a better vacation! The pool was incredibly relaxing, and the hosts were kind and responsive. The beds were very comfortable, making our stay even more enjoyable. We had so much fun at the house that we barely ventured out to explore the local attractions.My mom has difficulty with her knees, so it was wonderful that the pool had easy steps and a handrail, plus it was heated to the perfect temperature. The house was also very accessible, although we did need a stool for the bed for Mom. We're already looking to book our next trip!

This was one of the nicest properties that we have stayed at! We had an amazing week! We didn’t have any issues or complaints. The house was clean, comfortable and well stocked. The kitchen had everything we needed. There were pool toys and floats and also beach gear and toys in the garage. Renda is so sweet! She was super easy to communicate with and made sure that we were just able to relax. We will be renting with her again this coming year. The Destiny East community Is beautiful, safe, and close to everything.

We really loved this house and Renda was an amazing host. We had everything we needed. The pool and hot tub were awesome for the few chilly days we had- both heated. The walk to the beach was short and we had tons of options for food all around us. Would love to go back!
