We loved the house- great location right on the lake. The pool area/patio was large with plenty of chairs and space. We only had seven people so there was a great amount of space for all, you could fit many more people. Everyone loved the ice maker! The only issue was the entry gates into the gated community, but many other people were having issues as well, someone always let us in when we couldn't get in. It is a nice clean and safe neighborhood. Highly recommended property!

House was gorgeous, clean and well stocked with all the things! Most homes don't come with great pots, pans, knives, etc., this one does! Check in had some miscommunication but the week stay was amazing. Rooms were large and well appointed and the kitchen - AMAZING!!! The owner communication was top notch! House is a two minute walk to the clubhouse for pickleball, pool and Jacuzzi. The six seater golf cart was perfect for our group. The beach is minutes away as well and the beach is still a large public area for use. So many things to rave about. We will stay again when/if we are back in Destin.

Perfect family vacation
We had such a wonderful stay at Rendezvous Cove. The home is beautiful with plenty of space for our 4 families to come together to make the best of memories. Renda was very accommodating and always quick to reply. We look forward to coming back together at Rendevous Cove in the near future!

Lovely Beach Getaway
We loved everything about Rendezvous Cove! Great communication with Renda, no issues with house or gate code, everything went very smoothly. Think my favorite part was how close we were to the beach and getting to drive the golf cart! Made some great memories grabbing ice cream with the kids at night in that thing! The house was beautiful, we had 3 separate families and everyone had their own space. Loved that each room had their own bathroom. Would be great if the spare room on the main floor had a door into the hall bath, but honestly that’s the only critique I have. Overall, we all had the best vacation!

Beautiful, spacious property. Perfect for families
Very nice property. Had all we needed for our adult children and young grandchildren. Very close to the both beach and community pool. Beach is a short golf cart ride away. Had problems with wifi, which negatively affected the grandkids ipads and television, and inability to text or call since cellular service was very poor. Owners and maintenance crew were easy to reach and tried their best, but it was never resolved. We paid extra for pool to be heated, and it was great for the first two days. We reported that the water was cold on the third day, and it was quickly resolved as the water temp was warmer that evening and next day, though we were told it was never cold, LoL.

Fantastic Family Vacay
Loved everything! The location for sure, felt super safe. The house was so roomy so everyone could have a spot, it was stocked with towels and everything and more we needed in the kitchen and throughout the entire home!We loved the closeness to both the beach and clubhouse/ park for the kids. It was easy to get around to everything near by.Kids enjoyed the heated pool and riding in the golf cart.Renda was fantastic, keeping us informed and we felt like if we needed anything, all we needed to do is ask!Yes, we would definitely book again with her and at the property!!

Overall, great property! Rendezvous Cove Christmas Vaca
PROS: Rendezvous Cove was a great house in a great location. My group consisted of 3 couples, 3 young adults, and a teenager. We all fit well and could have very easily had 2 to 4 extra kids come along. Every bedroom had its own TV and bathroom which was great!! The heated pool was warmed to a suitable temp for the young adults but it was a little cold for me, primarily because the weather was a bit chilly. It was difficult to find a home in this area of Destin (close to the beach and with a pool or hot tub) that had a place to hang out outside and Rendezvous Cove had a very nice and large screened in back patio. The ice maker in the kitchen was awesome and the use of the golf cart made going to the beach very convenient although we also walked to the beach several times as well, it's about a 10 min walk.One of the biggest "pros" was the communication with the host. Renda was attentive and fantastic to deal with!!!!!!!! CONS: The entry gates at Destiny East are very finicky. 75% of the time the provided code didn't work. This was annoying when we would have to search for an alternate entrance or wait for another car to enter the community. The cleanliness could have been better, The microwave was pretty dirty inside and some of the glasses had lipstick on them. I felt like I had to wash every dish before we used it. The bedding on the beds could be nicer. Not terrible but pretty worn. Check-in email didn't come which was concerning but Renda gave me all the info I needed.

Knew we had made the right decision the minute we opened the door! Wide open floor plan with more than enough room for everyone! The screened in patio and pool was perfect! Renda was there for us at a moment's notice. The ultimate professional and as nice as could be! Highly recommend!
