Experience Your Holiday Haven


Just steps from the shimmering shores of the Emerald Coast, Beauty and the Beach is a Mediterranean-inspired retreat where coastal elegance meets effortless relaxation. Nestled in the exclusive Destiny East community, this three-story beach villa boasts stunning architecture, generous outdoor spaces, and endless amenities, creating the perfect setting for unforgettable moments by the sea.

From the moment you step through the grand courtyard entrance, you’re welcomed into an inviting outdoor oasis. Plush seating and a gas grill make this the ideal spot for morning coffee, alfresco dining, or evening cocktails under the stars. Inside, the open-concept layout is designed for comfort, with a spacious living room featuring a fireplace and plasma TV, creating the perfect space to unwind after a sun-drenched day on the sand. The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream, anchored by a breakfast bar with five barstools, while the dining area comfortably seats eight. A sunroom with two twin beds overlooks the back patio, offering a quiet retreat filled with natural light.

The second floor is home to three well-appointed bedrooms, including two luxurious master suites, each with a king-size bed, LED TV, and spa-like private bath. One master suite overlooks the courtyard, while the other opens to a covered porch alongside the third bedroom, a stylish space featuring an elegant iron queen bed and private bath.

Upstairs, the third floor is a hidden gem. Accessible via a sleek stainless steel staircase, this level is a dream escape for kids and teens, featuring two sets of double bunk beds, a half bath, and a sprawling sun deck with breathtaking views of Lake Destiny. Whether you're watching the sunrise over the water or stargazing under the Florida night sky, this perch offers a quiet retreat above it all.

Beyond the villa, the Destiny East community offers an incredible array of resort-style amenities. Spend your days lounging by the pool and hot tub, playing a match on the tennis courts, or letting the kids run free at the giant playground. Fire up the grill at the covered outdoor pavilion, or step into the million-dollar IMAX clubhouse and gym, where entertainment and wellness go hand in hand.

Beautiful house

This house is beautiful, comfy, lots of household items avaliable in the kitchen.Bring your walking shoes to go to the public beach, this house doesnt have access to a private beach area. Bring your seasonings for cooking, there is not a stash of even salt or pepper. Most bedrooms are on the 2nd n 3rd floors, which are spacious and comfy.

Lovely Home

We shared your Lovely home 8/13-8/10 and enjoyed every moment. The house is quite specious and perfectly decorated. I am a widow with 4 children. I bring them to Destin Every summer for the family vacation. This was by far the nicest house we have vacationed in. The master bedroom shower was a daily argument regarding who showered first! (Super nice). The 5 of us had plenty of space to enjoy. We loved the open kitchen, dining and living room. It abled us to always be together. We had a wonderful family Vacation! Thanks a Million!

Beautiful home and Fantawstic Location

This home and property was well kept and a great location. The parking experience was inadequate and somewhat scammish. If you advertise a home that sleeps 14 people , shouldn't you have enough parking or give them access to your garage so citations can be avoided? HOA rules have you constantly moving vehicles to avoid more citations. Yes we read the rules. Moneymaker for HOA. Maybe a warning first.

Family Vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The house was beautiful, everyone enjoyed it. Especially our mom! Even though I booked and paid for it, I let my parents have the master bedroom/bath. lol but I will say, a home that sleeps 14 will probably have more than 3 vehicles. Baby, car seat, stroller, luggage, etc. I understand HOA has rules, but then maybe guests should have access to garage, so nothing is blocking sidewalk or parked in street. I was notified that I’ll be fined for 2 cars. Aside from that, nobody wanted to leave!!!

Rats

Things were find until we went outside. Large Rats started running around. I made a call to management, was told some incorrect information, because they knew rats were a problem the next door neighbors had Rat boxes. Needless to say we couldn't enjoy outside.
