Excellent rental
Jay and Trista were wonderful and followed up frequently to make sure we didn’t need anything. Private one level home with a carport. Very nice quiet area close to the beach. The closet was packed with everything you need for your trip to the beach. Highly recommend.

5 night vacation
Our stay in this house was short and sweet. We were fortunate enough to be the first renter. We had a good time and the house was really comfortable from the nice comfy bed to the spacious living room were we chilled most of the time and watch netflix. The Location was a big plus, it was very private and secured and its also wasnt too far from the beach, 3 mins if you drive and maybe 5 mins if you walk. over all we enjoyed our stay and hopefully we can rent it again. Thank you very much Jay and Trista. Until nxt time.!

Very nice quiet place for family or couples.
They had all the necessities then some! Been going to Destin area for years and this was by far the best accommodations and very affordable. They even emailed, texted and called to check if everything was ok! Best experience we ever had! Great location as well!
