This includes two kitchen trash can liners, two dishwashing packets, mini shampoo, conditioner, lotion, one roll of toilet paper per bathroom, and one roll of paper towels. We supply bath towels, washcloths, and hand towels. We do not provide beach towels, laundry detergent, seasonings/spices, zip locks, or liquid dishwashing detergent. You can pick up your favorite items at the nearby Walmart, Target, Publix, or Winn-Dixie.

    ⭐ Our property provides Resort Wi-Fi and is considered an "open/public network." The Wi-Fi info will be found in the property binder on the kitchen counter. We know WI-FI is essential to everyone. However, we cannot guarantee the internet speed or signal strength. We have found that our Wi-Fi signals are not optimal during peak season due to the number of people visiting our area. We suggest you bring your hotspot device if you need high-speed internet during your stay. **Bring your passwords for streaming services.** Don't forget to log out when you leave.

    PARKING
    ⭐ There are four spaces in front of the home that you may use to park. Four parking passes will also be inside the unit by the black binder on the counter.

    FUN PASS EXPLORER
    ⭐ We have hand-picked a variety of top attractions in the area and given you one Free Fun Pass per day for each activity.

    POOLS / HOT TUB
    ⭐ The community pool is located in the middle of all the units - the pool next door is not for guests of Destiny. The pool is heated from March 1st - the end of April. There is no hot tub at this property. No alcohol or glass is allowed near the pool/hot tub. You are not to use this amenity if you have consumed alcohol or are pregnant. You are not permitted to add anything to the pool/hot tub, including bath salts, bath bombs, etc. Any damages or extra cleaning resulting from misuse or additives will incur damage fees of $500, including the total replacement cost.

    ⭐ Check-in any time after 4 pm CST. Check-out is any time before 10 am CST.

    EARLY ARRIVALS
    ⭐ We would love to accommodate early arrivals. However, it is nearly impossible during the busy season due to increased traffic delays and a limited workforce. Therefore, if you have an early flight, please plan to book an extra day so that you may check in before 4 pm. If that isn't an option, one of our favorite public beaches is Pompano Joe's in Miramar Beach. It offers large bathrooms, plenty of parking, and a beachside restaurant. Our PCB properties have many options for public beach access, but our favorite would be Public Beach Access 54-57, right in front of Pier Park! Since we are always on a tight schedule, we ask that all guests depart promptly at 10 am CST.

    KITCHEN
    ⭐ The kitchen has a Fully equipped refrigerator, stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher, cookware, bakeware, glasses, mugs, plates, flatware, cooking utensils, coffee maker, and fire extinguisher under the sink.

    SMOKING
    ⭐ NO SMOKING on the premises. You will be charged a minimum of $1000 fee for smoking inside the property.

    REFUNDS
    ⭐ Absolutely NO refunds or discounts due to weather, natural disasters, or any other situations beyond our control.

    Lastly, HAVE FUN at the beach, but please beware of rip currents, and understand the beach flags!

    Great location but could be cleaner
    We had a great stay for our weekend trip. The house is close to several restaurants and the beach. We loved having the two kitchens to store all of our foods and drinks. The only issue we had was after being in the house for a few hours with no shoes on the bottoms of our feet were black.

    Vacation 2022
    I really like being close to the beach and pool and this property did that. The pool was about 10 houses down from where we were. There was a small tunnel you could walk through to get beach side. For most of the week the tunnel was full of water and tadpoles so you couldn’t walk through it. After 3-4 days the city I believe came and sucked the water out and you could use it. There were some issues with the house. There were many lightbulbs out which I did call about. The upstairs tub drained extremely slow. The upstairs toilet chain kept coming undone and the flush handle would swivel around. The locks on the upstairs bathroom didn’t work..actually the door wouldn’t shut all the way. The master bathroom downstairs the door wouldn’t lock. Those are a few things that need fixed. There was a lake in the back that had pretty cool turtles to see. For the most part we had a good time. It would be nice if the property had bikes or a golf cart. Thanks for having us Florida
