Perfect annual 4th of July week stay! Beautiful home, great location, very comfortable and extremely clean. Lots of added amenities that make traveling with “less” so much “more”. Check in was a breeze and communication with the host was very accommodating. Would love to stay here again. Thank you Jamie for sharing your home with our family. We had an amazing week in paradise.

We had a wonderful stay at Off the Clock. The house was well-appointed, with everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing vacation. The house was also very clean. The pool was great and our family spent a lot of time there. We loved the location. Just a short walk to Crystal Beach access. The reserved chairs and umbrella were a great bonus. Jamie was responsive and very helpful. We would stay here again and recommend it for anyone looking for a relaxing beach vacation.

100% Beachy Vibes

A great place to stay right near the beach. Newly renovated, beautiful inside with a coastal aesthetic and vibe. The thought and detail is fantastic with a very well equipped kitchen, as well as equipment for the beach. Everything has been thought through. The hosts were very communicative and make a great effort to look after you. Highly recommend!

Fun beach house

We really enjoyed bringing the family to Destin. The house was a short walk to the beach, and the two chairs and umbrella reserved there made it easy to always have a spot. The backyard heated pool was a great place to relax before dinner. Good location a short drive to shopping and dining. The house was clean and everything in good shape, and property management was very easy to communicate with before check in and while on site. Highly recommended!

Great Family Vacation

Everything about the stay was great. The host, Louise, communicated with us continuously and was very helpful. The house is beautiful, clean, and we had no surprises. We spent the mornings at the beach which was just a short easy walk even with two kids under 2. The pool and backyard was great for the afternoons. We would highly recommend this property to other families.

Relaxing “Destin”ation

Loved our stay in beautiful Destin this spring. This is our 3rd year in a row visiting the Crystal Beach area. This home is charming, exceptionally clean and has everything you could think of to make your stay a dream. We loved the heated pool, spacious back yard and how near you are to the white sandy beach. We will definitely look to stay at “Off the Clock” again next year. Till then.

Family Getaway

We absolutely loved this house! The property manager was wonderful and responded quickly with any questions that we had. The house is beautiful and well-outfitted and it was the perfect size for the six of us. We loved having our own pool and the backyard had a very fun atmosphere, and we also enjoyed just being a block away from the beach! We used the reserved beach chairs every day we were there. We will definitely stay there again when we are back in the area.

The perfect family getaway!

This property is exceptional! Every detail was so thoughtfully done about this house. The grounds were so well manicured, inside of the house was comfy with chic-minimal-beachy decor. We had our parents (70’s) stay downstairs in the king bed, and our family of 4 had the upstairs. Our favorite part hands down was the big shower upstairs with a square rain shower head. The walk to the beach was short and convenient. We will be back

Perfect Destin House with Great Location

We absolutely loved our stay! The house was beachy and modern with tasteful decor. It is adorable. We greatly appreciated the relaxing covered porches, large televisions, fluffy towels, and the spacious master bath. The driftwood floors were gorgeous, clean, and easy to swiffer for sand. We really enjoyed night swims in the heated saltwater pool complete with string lights and firepit warmth. And, to top it all off, we loved the proximity to the beach and inlcuded beach wagon and chair/umbrella set-up. We will definitely return!

So many reasons that made our experience amazing: 1) the hosts are responsive, thoughtful and make sure everything is just right, 2) the house was new, clean, modern luxuries, outdoor heaven, absolutely everything we needed and 3) the location is literally a 1/2 block from gorgeous Crystal Beach access. Add all these up and you have a perfect week in Destin. Thank you Louise for your kindness. We’ll be back!!

Clean and high quality

Beautiful home with very nice towels, bedding and pillows. The most well stocked kitchen I’ve ever rented from through VRBO. It felt fresh and clean every time we walked in the door. The pool was fantastic and was quite refreshing all day and into the evening in spite of our heat index of 110+! The property managers were easy to reach and easy to work with. We rented a golf cart for the week which made our vacation complete.
