Welcome to Southbound, a luxury Destin vacation rental located inside the highly sought-after, gated community of Destiny East. Designed for unforgettable family getaways, holiday vacations, and group trips to the Emerald Coast, this spacious 7-bedroom, 5.5-bath beach home is the perfect mix of comfort, style, and resort-style outdoor living. With a massive newly renovated private pool and spa, generous sleeping accommodations, and upscale finishes throughout, Southbound delivers the kind of Florida vacation experience your whole group will talk about long after checkout.



From the moment you arrive, Southbound makes a statement. Guests are welcomed by an open, airy foyer featuring a grand staircase and beautiful lighting that sets the tone for the home’s elevated design. This home offers plenty of space for large families, multiple couples, and friend groups who want to vacation together while still enjoying privacy, comfort, and premium amenities.



The heart of the home is the freshly updated kitchen and dining space, crafted to bring everyone together. Whether you’re preparing a big family breakfast before the beach or cooking up a feast after a day in the sun, the kitchen is fully equipped with high-end features including granite countertops, a stainless steel refrigerator/freezer, double ovens, a gas cooktop, two dishwashers, and plenty of prep and storage space. A large dine-in island with seating for six makes it easy to gather for snacks, cocktails, or casual meals, while the nearby dining area offers seating for eight and a cozy atmosphere surrounded by natural light.



Just off the kitchen, you’ll find a comfortable sitting area that’s perfect for slow mornings and laid-back evenings. Enjoy your coffee, unwind with a movie night, or catch your favorite shows on the large flat-screen TV and DVD player. One of the standout design features of this space is the stunning open-air, observatory-style ceiling, accented by tall windows that flood the home with sunshine and create a bright, welcoming coastal vibe.



Step outside and discover what truly makes Southbound a guest favorite—its backyard oasis. The covered patio features another large flat-screen TV and plenty of outdoor seating, making it ideal for poolside lounging, watching the big game, or relaxing after a day at the beach. The newly renovated private pool and spa is the crown jewel of this home, featuring a spacious swim-up ledge, an overflow spa, and ample room for both kids and adults to enjoy. Stretch out on lounge chairs for sunbathing, splash the afternoon away, or grill up lunch and dinner using the private BBQ. When you’re craving even more sunshine, head up to the second-floor sun deck for additional space to soak up those iconic Emerald Coast rays.



After a full day of beach adventures and poolside fun, everyone will sleep comfortably in Southbound’s thoughtfully designed bedroom layout. This luxury home features 3 King Suites, 3 King Bedrooms, and a custom-built bunk room made for the younger guests (or anyone who loves a fun sleep space).

Upstairs, guests will find additional King bedrooms and another King Suite, along with the show-stopping bunk room featuring two sets of Queen-over-Queen custom bunks, a lounge area, and a flat-screen TV.

Absolutely beautiful property, our first time staying in a home as opposed to a condo as our family grows. The house is gorgeous and honestly could have stayed there and skipped the beach there was so much to do. Well maintained property especially the kitchen we planned to go out to dinner but instead opted to cook, and enjoy the pool. The kitchen ammenties had top notch ammenties and everything we needed. Love the big center island! Wish I could have stayed longer. Beach Reunion responded to all my questions almost immediately. So glad I opted for a home with pool as with a 17th month old it made it hard to stay on the beach all day. It was so peaceful and relaxing I think I may have actually convinced my husband that we need a pool!

This was the most beautiful and well stocked home we have ever stayed in. The pool was clean and seating around the pool was plentiful. The bunkroom/game room provided hours of entertainment when storms prevented outside activities. Our host was great quick to answer any questions.

Great location!!!

We thoroughly enjoyed the property with our large family. Communication was great. The home was clean. Two dishwashers and 2 refrigerators were great to have. Thanks for the free use of the golf cart. We rented 3 bikes that were enjoyed as well. My only suggestion would be to powerwash the patio cushions and replace the outside dining chairs. They are rusted and dangerous for little ones with sharp, rusty edges. The grill needs replaced as well. The baffels are rusted through and there is a large hole in the bottom. Overall we were very pleased. The pool was amazing and the landscaping is beautiful!

Destin hideaway

We loved the house & pool. We had 8 adults and 7 kids who loved this house. It is in a gated community that is very safe. The golf cart could take up to 9 people to the beach, dinner, or to get ice cream. The host were extremely responsive, we had two minor issues that were addressed within a few hours. Highly recommended this property - it was probably the nicest our family has ever stayed in.

Not so perfect getaway

Beautiful home, great pool! However, upon arrival, the bathrooms weren't very clean and the house had some cobwebs. The outdoor grill was never cleaned after prior visitors and the pool was also dirty. The outside furniture could really be replaced as we had some chairs that weren't very safe and cushions were gross. We were supposed to have a golfcart to use, but it was broken. When we contacted mamagment they were quick to respond. For the amount we paid to stay at this rental, we shouldnt have had any of these issues.

Great family beach house

We had 15 people staying at this property and it was perfect! Mostly king beds fit our family well since we have mostly adult couples. The community is nice and quiet and the little ones could ride their ride on toys with very little traffic. The pool was huge and had plenty of seating available. The multiple fridges served our large family well. The golf cart made getting to the beach access easy. The only downside is the front door doesn’t lock on the inside and our youngest could easily open and run out. But all and all, would stay there again!

A great week in Destin

We loved the house and the pool. In our 17 or so years of doing family get-togethers this house and pool combination is the best we have ever rented and both were in great condition. We haf a wide range of ages. married and not married couples, so the different multiple bedroom arrangements made it very easy to make sure all had suitable accommodations. The pool was perfect, large enough to actually swim but with multiple depths so everyone could use it comfortably and safely at the same time. Only real drawback was our ability to get everyone to and back from the beach. It wasn't far but it did require number of trips even with the 6 person cart provided. Kitchen facilities were more than adequate and we could seat our 13 people easily. The house is large so we never seemed to be crowded and the outside TV/lounge area and multiple chairs and lounge chairs around the pool also allowed all to be together without being over crowded.

Family loved this house, although the coffee maker did not work, and wifi/tv did not work on the final day of our stay. Wrist bands are required for the amenities, but we were only given 4 wrist bands for a group of 17. We loved this place so much we would stay here again anyway.

Beautiful Home

This rental was a great place for a big family. We had so much fun in the pool, the home was close to the beach, the golf cart was an awesome bonus, and the whole gated community was beautiful. Would definitely recommend this home. The only issues( just little inconveniences really)were the following: 1. Not enough towels and wash clothes to accommodate 20 people for a whole week. We had to wash towels almost every day. 2. We checked in on Saturday and the golf cart stopped working on Wednesday. We didn't receive a replacement. It wasn't a huge deal but the golf cart made it very convenient to travel to and from the beach.

Nice family home for Big group

This is a very nice home with great amenities. I’m super picky with cleanliness so there are places that could have been cleaned better but being such a big house, could be easy to miss some things. The second master suite’s bathroom on the first floor is super tiny and not cut out for two people but doable. Overall super convenient location in very nice neighborhood. Bring your own pool towels because they only have bath towels.

Perfect Getaway

Southbound was the perfect getaway for our large family group. We felt secure in the beautiful gated community and it was just a short ride to the white sand beach in the 6 passenger golf cart! Great gathering spots are found outside around the pool too! We had super quick responses to any inquiries while at the property and that was really nice.
