Superb location! Property was clean and cozy when we arrived. Phillip, fromthe rental company, was excellent in checking in to ensure we had all that we needed. Within minutes of beach, pool, shopping, and dining. Pool is only heated twice a year from what a local resident told me, making the water very cold. Safe for running to stay active as well.

The property was great! Very clean and nicely decorated. We loved how the yard became totally fenced in when the gate was closed. We often stay in this area of Destin because it is very close to shops and restaurants.
