Perfect!

House was perfect for our family! So nice to be able to walk to the beach, and see the water from the house! House was very clean. Kitchen very well stocked with anything you may need for cooking meals and grilling out. Ms Jeffry was super nice and very responsive if we had any issues or questions. Would definitely recommend, and would definitely book here again in the future

Such a fun weekend!

The house was absolutely beautiful! It was a perfect get away for a girls weekend! It was in the best location- having restaurants, bars, and the beach all within walking distance. The furniture and decor were so cute and it all felt very homey. The host was so sweet and responsive. She let us have an early check in and late check out and just told us to enjoy! There was one minor thing broken (a door knob) and she was very responsive to us. Would recommend everyone to stay here!

Lovely Weekend by the Beach!

I stayed here with 11 friends to celebrate an upcoming wedding and we loved this property. First of all, everyone slept comfortably. There were enough beds to go around to accommodate our large group, and for that I was very grateful. I slept in the pool house king bed, and slept very peacefully. The proximity to the beach was actually so nice, honestly a lot closer than I was expecting (maybe a 4 minute walk). The couches were comfy for football viewing and napping after beachy mornings. The pool was nice to cool down as well. We were not far from golf and fishing, maybe around 10-15 minutes away from either option. Lastly, Jeffry and her daughter were always very helpful and attentive to any questions we had. I felt supported throughout our stay. All in all, a great time! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Beach House

We enjoyed our stay. The location was perfect and only steps from the beach. The only drawback is that the public beach area is VERY SMALL! We were shocked and had never experienced so many private beaches around us. We had to set up before daylight to get a good spot and some mornings it was already filling up with the public beach area being so small! No fault of the owners…just wanted to inform. The house and location were great! We really enjoyed our stay.

Great beach house!

We had 16 people with us for my son’s graduation trip that was family and a hand full of teenagers. It was so nice because the teenagers stayed in the pool house so they had their own space but still spent time with us also! House was great, kitchen was one of the most well furnished houses we have been too! Had everything we needed even a crockpot! Location was great! Everywhere we wanted to go was within 20 minutes and that was only that long due to traffic. Only thing to fuss about was the amount of public beach there was. U had to fight a ton of people to find a place to sit while the two hotels on either side had tons of room but you cannot sit there. Of course there is nothing the house owners can do about that and we are planning to rent again but just pack up and go to the larger beach access a few minutes down the road. Overall amazing house, great owners that help with anything we needed!!! Definitely our new Destin beach getaway even with the beach issues!

Home Away From Home

We enjoyed our trip to Destined For Fun very much. We had stayed in a similar home a couple of years ago that had a few issues so we knew we loved the layout, but this one was PERFECT! From the booking process throughout our stay Jeffry was a dream to work with. This is the one week a year I get to spend with my kids and grandkids with zero distractions and having a cozy home to spend that time in was wonderful. The house is very clean and well maintained and we loved the open concept and huge dining table so we could all be together for games and meals. We can’t wait to book our next trip!

Steps away from the ocean!

We booked our trip a month ago for 4th of July week. Jeffry was amazing to work with. Very responsive. The house was great. The location was PERFECT. It was close enough of a walk we didn’t have to carry our little kiddos and our oldest kids could walk back from the beach safely when the adults weren’t ready! Will definitely consider booking again in the future!

Best place to stay in Destin!

This house was perfect! This was our first trip to Destin (we’ve vacationed at many of the nearby beaches in either condos or houses) and it was just beautiful. We will definitely be back and will stay at this property again. The location is perfect and we loved the beach access just across the street from the house that was not too crowded even during Fall Break. The outside space and pool were amazing and we spent each night after dinner hanging out with our whole party of 10 (three families). Our group included four teenagers, ages 13-17 and they had an incredible time. The common space in the house is very functional also with an open kitchen to the spacious dining and living room. The whole house has a great layout and then we had one family in our party to stay in the pool house and they loved this space. The property owner contacted me the day of our arrival to let us know the house was ready for early check in and she even went to the property to see if our golf cart we ordered had been delivered. She was so responsive and I can tell she is an experienced property manager…very professional! The house is also located within a half mile of any shopping or restaurants that we went to so an easy drive by car or golf cart. With that, we didn’t have to deal with any traffic issues like we have at other beaches we’ve stayed at during Fall Break. So many reasons that I can only describe it as the best place to stay in Destin!
