Looking for a stunning space to share quality time with friends or family? This is it! Upon entry you're enamored with the pristine and serene abode. The beds are cozy, the towels are plentiful, and the heated pool with ample seating in outdoor spaces is top notch. We especially enjoyed the porch swing. Take a ride to the beach or around town in the golf cart. Mande and Bruce were excellent hosts, immediately responsive and helpful. Our family absolutely loved it here, and we can't see how anyone wouldn't. Book now!

Beautifully remodeled home! Close to the beach, restaurants, and shopping. Quiet neighborhood. Loved having a golf cart - took it everywhere we went. Very nice pool and outdoor area- worked well for our pups. Would recommend new covers for living room furniture, or leather so easier to keep clean. Had weird mishap with some electrical outlets malfunctioning/tripped, but host was excellent and even came over in late evening to look at breaker in garage as we didn’t have access to that area. Pool was to be heated upon arrival, but the motherboard was broke and needed replaced. Wish that was found in greater advance to our stay, so we could have utilized the pool upon arrival as weather was not in our favor our entire stay to Destin unfortunately! Thankfully once fixed next morning, the pool heated very quickly! I did get notified of the pool issue from host before we arrived though which was much appreciated. The master bedroom mattress maybe needs replaced, it wasn’t very comfortable. But Overall beautiful home and would highly recommend. It was our First time to Destin, the beach nearby was amazing!

Wonderful Stay
My family really enjoyed our stay here. Will stay here again. They have everything you could ever need. The pool and golf cart was a plus for our family. We hardly ever drove our vehicles anywhere. One of our faves by far! If I had one suggestion it would be to have rocking chairs on the porch to enjoy the cool breezes during the day. Thanks for making our family vacation fabulous.

Beautiful House!
This house was amazing for our girls trip to Destin! Plenty of room for 7 of us. The pool was awesome right outside the kitchen door so we could easily go in and out for snacks and drinks. The golf cart is a huge bonus. A lot easier to get to the beach on. Special parking just for golf carts and it’s right at the end of the street. Overall fantastic place to stay!

Perfect, Convenient, Beautiful
Everything about this property including the location and convenience to both the beach and shops / restaurants was amazing. It was perfect for us due to the horrible weather we endured because we were not required to go far to still have a good and relaxing time. The contact with Bruce and Amanda was easy and they were readily available when needed.

One of the best rental experiences we've ever had
We booked Dog Daze for a very last minute trip in May and I cannot say enough wonderful things about this property or the folks who manage it. First of all, the communication was fantastic...hospitality at its finest. Secondly, the house itself is absolutely beautiful. It has undergone a complete renovation and the design is comfortable, beautiful and well thought out. And it is hands down the cleanest vacation rental we have ever stayed in-absolutely spotless. The pool was so nice and we enjoyed hanging out back in the evenings. The golf cart was top notch and such a great addition. We enjoyed our nightly rides around the neighborhood and it was perfect to drive to the beach access where there was golfcart only parking. We never had an issue finding a space there. Location-wise, you just can't beat Crystal Beach. It's quaint and lovely, with pristine beaches and proximity to the solitude of the state park as well as the necessities, like restaurants and grocery stores. The icing on the cake was being able to take our sweet pup with us. We wouldn't hesitate to recommend this beautiful home to anyone and we look forward to returning to Dog Daze again. And working with the managing company was so pleasant that we have already booked a stay at another of their properties for this month. Thank you, Bruce and Mande!

quick get-away
Nice to be near everything, but in July the nearby beach was packed and no place to park the golf cart, let alone a car. The beach was 4 rows deep in umbrellas with many reserved private areas. We had better luck at the nearby state park. Beautiful sand and beach. Great to have a small private pool at the house for the kids.

Dogdaze
The Dogdaze house worked out well for our family. The pool was great and the the six seater golf cart was definitely a plus for evening rides by the beach. After swimming in the pool for a few days the pool needed a cleaning. I reach out to Bruce and the next morning he had it taken care of before I knew it. It was a fun time. We would definitely VRBO it again! Thank you Bruce and Amanda!

We LOVED it!!
Dog Daze was awesome for our family (2 adults and 3 kids)! It was very cute and clean (and my standards are high in this area!) It was a perfect location, easy to get to, and close enough to the beach to both walk or use the gold cart. And can I just say the golf cart alone was a fun time!! My kids LOVED the golf cart rides around the neighborhood and it was sooo helpful taking the stuff to the beach. Also being so close to the public beach entrance was a blessing. As for the house, we didn't use the extra bedroom off the laundry room next to the pool, so cant say much to that room. But the rest of the house was great, TV's in all the main rooms, a/c worked good, and enough hot water for everyone. The pool was also a huge hit for us!! Its always nice to have a pool for after beach time (using the outside shower first that also had hot water available) or on days you need a break from the beach. My boys want us to come back next year they had such a great time! I would recommend Dog Daze to anyone looking to unwind and relax! 10 stars in my book.
**My only suggestion, would be to add curtains in the main 2 bedrooms. With the street light across the street and the sun coming up a little after 5AM, it starts getting bright in the rooms real quick even with the shades closed.

Cute place and great location
Good location. Very close to the beach. The kids really enjoyed the heated pool! The only downside was the sleeping arrangement. We had two families staying here. Both have two kids that are 10 and under with a total of 8 people. The master bedroom was great had its own bathroom. The kids bedroom had a bathroom right next to it. When we first arrived, we couldn’t find the third bed room. After searching, it was in another section of the house. So it was inconvenient for those staying in that room to use bathroom at night. And the room was pretty small.
