Spring Getaway

We are a group of 7 adults who regularly travel and stay at rental homes. The group agreed that this home is one of the best we’ve stayed at. The outdoor pool area is well thought out and we spent many hours out there. The layout of the home with 3 masters with en suites on the main level is great for the early risers. The walk to the beach is quick and easy; we went down nightly for sunset walks! Highly recommend, we would definitely stay again.

Spring Break get away

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in the beach haven. Having our own salt water pool and hot tub was incredible since the ocean was rough and cold. We paid to have the pool heated. There was a problem one day but our hosts had the pool guy come out and we were back in business the next day and we received a credit for the day it wasn’t heated.The neighbors were mostly quiet but not completely but even that didn’t detract from our stay. The home is spacious with plenty of room to spread out.

Golden family vacation

My wife and I were joined by our three adult kids, their spouses and our 7 grandkids (all 9 and under). The house was very spacious and clean. Plenty of living, eating and sleeping space. Location was perfect. Short two minute walk to the beach and a five minute drive to grocery stores, restaurants and gas stations. The area was very safe and clean. The pool was also perfect. Large enough for multiple people with steps and shallow platform for kids to play. Also had an attached jacuzzi. The pool was perfect for young kids and adults. Highly recommend!!! We are planning our next stay.

Great Senior Trip

I think the key points about this home are that it's super close to the beach with a couple different places to access it easily. I had to talk to Jan on a couple occasions through text and phone call and she was quick, kind, and super helpful. The home is rated for 14 people and that's exactly how many we had (4 families) and the home was more than accommodating. && Finally the pool...it was amazing. We literally never left the beach or pool the whole time we were there!! (Other pools in this area were not near as big or as nice.)

Nice place in a great area!

This house and area was perfect for our "hurrication" in the aftermath of Hurricane Ida while we awaited getting our power back at home. It was close enough to the beach to walk, close enough to Camilles to walk to breakfast or dinner, and close to Destin Commons to do shopping anytme. Would highly recommend! The house was cute and big enough for our family and visiting friends to have space. Each bedroom had a tv and great assortment of games in the den. The host was quick with replies and I am sure if we would have had any issues during the week, she would have been on top of it. Thanks again Jan for letting us rent!

Location was excellent! Pool was wonderful! Home was not as clean as it should’ve been upon arrival. Towels were very sparse, small, and not lush. We ate all our meals in house and the kitchen was well equipped for preparation and serving. No closet space at all. Bed in King 3 is very uncomfortable and noisy. Double living rooms worked great. Very top bedroom was unusable for our group. Too hard and dangerous to access. That needs to be noted in listing.

Spring Break Escape

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home. It was spectacular. Eleven of us (seven parents, four HS senior boys) had all the space we needed and the house was perfect. The home is less than a five minute walk to the beach. The pool and hot tub are huge. The following is a direct quote from one of the other parents in my group... "It was perfect. We absolutely LOVED the house!!! The pool was AMAZING...the best one we have had while on a vacation. It was so nice that they had a basket of towels to use. We would for sure recommend this home to others that would want to stay in Destin." Additionally, the owner was super responsive. She called me two nights before we arrived to answer any questions I had and promptly replied to the texts I sent during our stay. Five Stars All Around.

A Little Slice of Paradise

What an amazing experience! What a beautiful property!The home was spectacular with an awesome interior. The kitchen is fabulous and is the most well stocked kitchen we have ever seen in a vacation rental. It literally has everything that could have needed. The bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms are so nice.The house was extremely clean and very well maintained (fresh paint, great flooring (LVP) and top tier appliances, fixtures, and furniture.The pictures, as good as they are, do not tell the whole story. In person, it's even better.The pool area is a small oasis in itself with all the features like shooting jets, waterfalls, and a hot tub. And the seating around the pool area...we stopped counting at 25. There is ample space to swim and play cornhole or simply relax with a book.We loved the gathering space in the rear of the home with a view of the pool and a big table to share meals or games.The beach is literally a 5-minute walk to the water from the house, but with this house, you don't even need the beach!Jan is a very responsive host and makes sure the experience you have is first rate. This was one of the best vacations we have ever taken.

Great location

The house is located half a block from the beach (which is great!), since access point is in the midst of hotels and beachfront villas, I'd imagine it's difficult to find a spot that hasn't been claimed. It's probably easier to just rent a beach umbrella, which was what we did. But at night time we were able to go crab hunting easily and had a ton of fun. The house is not far away from a shopping area and grocery store, which is also convenient. Check in process was smooth and the property owner was very helpful and responsive. She gave me a call ahead of time, answered my questions and gave me some tips and tricks. Overall the property is in decent shape and things are kept up. The furniture are in good shape and decorations are nice. There are a couple of minor details that I informed the property owner about and I'm confident she will make plans to correct these things. We enjoyed our stay there and would recommend to anyone who wants to bring their family to Destin to enjoy the beach.

Great location, beautiful house and pool

We loved our stay at the Beach Walk Retreat. The house is big enough to comfortably accommodate the stated number of occupants. We only had four people, and it gave everyone plenty of space to spread out. The pool is beautiful and the spa was used often given the slightly cool October weather. We had a minor issue with the spa on the first day. Jan and Jim were at the house in minutes to remedy the situation. The location is tough to beat - a two minute walk to the beach. The ride into Destin is 10-15 minutes at most, which didn't seem bad at all when heading out to dinner. The three master bedrooms are plenty big, and the en suite bathrooms would be great for a bigger party. There are two large tables for dining, games or getting some work done in the house. There is plenty of space outdoors if the whole party was by the pool. There are also some smaller desks interspersed throughout the house. I didn't count the TVs but there are a bunch! The kitchen is very well equipped and there are "starter" amounts of laundry detergent, so you may have to run out for more if you're there for a while. Overall, I would 100% book this home again.
