Our Trip in Paradise

Absolutely loved our stay from arrival to departure. Everything about Amber’s beach house was amazing! Location is an easy walk to the beach. One thing to keep in mind about Gulf Winds East is they do not allow tents or canopies on the private beach. As for the condo, it was exactly as advertised. Clean and absolutely beautiful! Amber was a wonderful hostess and replied immediately when I messaged about anything. We are excited to plan our trip for next year!

This place is absolutely amazing! Its exactly as advertised and in a perfect location. The beach is right across the street and we had a very short walk to several restaurants including Pompano Joes, Kenny Ds, and Captain Daves. The owner had thought of everything! Dhe even had a toddler rail for the bottom bunk that you could add on. I would recommend this to anyone. We will definitely be back!

Perfect Condo within 1 min walk to the private beach!

This condo was the perfect place for our family vacation. Amber was so kind and was quick to respond to any need that we had. She also allowed us to check in early which was a big blessing traveling with 2 little ones! The home was clean and perfect for a family of 6! My daughter loved sleeping on the top bunk! A few suggestions would be having a removable toddler safety rail for the bottom bunk and having some general spices in the kitchen. We can’t wait to come back next year!

Thanksgiving at the beach

We stayed the week of Thanksgiving and I can’t say enough about how wonderful everything was! The owner allowed early check in without us even asking, which was much needed after a long drive. Condo was very clean and had absolutely everything we needed, the owner even had storage containers for left overs, which I thought was great. We stay in the general area each year so we were familiar with the location, but for those who aren’t the beach is a very short walk away. We enjoyed that the complex was smaller and not too crowed for swimming or enjoying the private beach. The condo was perfect for our family of 6 and I highly recommend.

Plenty of beach toys and accessories. Very spacious and a great balcony to enjoy some peace and quite with a little bit of nature.

We had 2 families come down & stay a week here. The 2 master suites upstairs is PERFECT! We loved everything about our trip! Easy & great communication with owners. They were so nice & checked on us throughout the week. They literally have everything you could need for a home & at the beach! Every kitchen gadget, every beach toy! We were so thankful for that. A true money saver! We were steps away from the pool & the beach was an easy 3 minute walk! The outdoor showers located throughout were a lifesaver! We couldn’t stop talking about how perfect & amazing this place & unit was. We are already talking about when we can come back & bring more friends down to get a unit close by! Thank you for the amazing accommodations.

Great stay for our first time in Destin!

The stay was great. The owners checked in through out the stay to make sure we didn’t have any questions! The condo was super cute and love having the 3 full baths. They provided everything you need for a weeks stay. We just wish the location was a little better. Closer to food and attractions, but that’s minor stuff. We would recommend this condo to anyone!!!

Absolutely stunning home!!’

From the moment we got in Miramar I was in love with the place but stepping in to the house just made it all so much better.. it’s beautiful! Clean and homey and comfortable.. and just a short walk to the beach! The private beach is awesome.. we were close to the pool which is a plus! And close to everything!! I loved being able to sit outside on a porch on each side of the house. Having the beach supplies was very helpful. Each room was beautiful and I slept like a baby in those beds ! Thank you for such a great time and we will definitely be back next year for an even longer stay !! Definitely a great host and beautiful home!
