Destin Family Rental
House in a private community, which offers two pools. Private beach access, with provide transportation to beach was terrific. This helped with elderly parents and young kids, along with everything you take to beach. House had everything needed to keep kids and adults occupied and happy. Overall great location. Would book again.

Coastal Breeze was Perfect!
We had an excellent stay! The house was open and airy, so CLEAN and welcoming! Our twin grandsons loved the bunk beds; perfect just outside their parents room. What put it over the top were the provided beach towels, laundry soap, dish soap, toilet paper,etc…enough to last our entire stay! No worrying abut rushing to the store to get essentials!! Darlene, the owner was lovely. Working on booking our stay for next year!

A great family vacation rental
The house was clean and a convenient walk to the beach. Everything that we needed (especially for kids) was ready for us when we got there. On top of that, the gated community has two pools, sidewalks and has a back entrance/exit to zip out to local restaurants and grocery stores.
Additionally, we coordinated a few baby/toddler items through Babyquip and Darlene was more than willing to meet the Babyquip representative and have everything set up for us when we got there. This made our afternoon arrival perfect so the little ones had a place to eat and sleep when we got there. Book this house, you won't regret it!
