Loved our stay
After our Sanibel rental condo was destroyed following the hurricane, we were scrambling to find a way to salvage our annual fall getaway. We felt so fortunate to find this place for our family of 11. It was perfect for us. Plenty of room. The kids loved the pool, and the golf cart made trips to the beach a breeze. It all worked out great. 15 days wasn’t enough.

Great host, clean home, exactly as described
This was a great property! The host was great and communication of any need or question was quickly responded to. The home was very clean and the amenities were fabulous. Love that we had on our private pool. It was close to the beach and the neighborhood was lovely. 10/10 would recommend and we will be back 😁. I definitely recommend the heated pool and golf cart option.

Great house and great location
We just checked out and we are already looking at coming back. The house was everything advertised and we had a great time.
The only thing that I can pick apart is that in the cottage house the comforter was a little dirty. It could have used a washing. Other then that we loved it.

Gorgeous getaway
Our family of 5 big people and our puppy loved this beautiful "home with a bonus home". We happened to get the coldest four days in the area in December, but because we added on pool heat, we were able to enjoy swimming and relaxing in the backyard oasis despite the outside temps in the 50's. The pool was 92 and awesome! I noticed right away that unlike in many properties, there was not one sign stating "don't do this, or do this" anywhere in the home. In other words, communication was through email instructions but the home felt like home! Garbage was easy, location was amazing, and having the golf cart rental arranged was extremely convenient (and we used it every single day multiple times). We had everything we needed and the owners were extremely quick answering any questions. We loved it!

A group of us got together from different parts of the states celebrating birthdays and friendship. The house was amazing, even better than the pictures. The back yard with the pool was like a Sun Trap having the carriage house was an added bonus and a Ashley being a dog friendly home we could bring a four-legged friend. Location was perfect three minutes to get on the beach. Great restaurants within A few minutes drive. The golf cart was fun and useful for going short distances. The kitchen was fully stocked and had everything you needed. Thank you Matthew and Sarah for Sharing a piece of paradise with us. I will absolutely recommend your home.

We Loved Sol-Mate
We had an amazing stay at Sol-Mate. As a family of seven, having two separate living spaces was great. My husband and I used the carriage house while my FIL stayed in the main house with the kids. Oh my gosh, if you have kids, you know how nice it is to have that little degree of separation.
During the day, we were in full-on family vacation mode. We spent our days enjoying the beautiful beach and venturing out to enjoy some of Destin's fun attractions. We spent our evenings relaxing in the private, heated pool. At night, family vacay turned into a couples getaway. The best of both worlds!
Some things we really appreciated about our stay at Sol-Mate:
outdoor speakers (really upped our fun in the heated pool)
clean and updated appliances
lots of extra beach towels and gear (chairs, buckets, shovels, etc.)
board games (handy when it rained)
fully stocked kitchen
rocking-chair front porch (Sol-Mate is on one of Destin's less busy streets so sitting out there watching the rain was quite relaxing)
the short two-block walk to the beach
Matthew and Sarah take great pride in their property. They went above and beyond to make sure our stay was enjoyable. With Destin 2019 in the bag, we are already planning for Destin 2020 at Sol-Mate.
