"Our family of 19 ranging in age from 1 to 66 enjoyed this house for 6 days in Aug. 2023. We also stayed in this house May 2021. Perfect for our large group. Close to the beach and the private pool was awesome. There was a problem with the A/C on the 2nd and 3rd floors, got really warm. Beach Blue had HVAC out the next morning (on a Sunday) to work on it. Still wasn’t cooling as it should, they came out again that afternoon and found another problem and it was fixed. They even came back the next day to make sure. We understand things happen but their customer service was awesome. It is a great house for a large group. We loved it and if we do another family vacation in Destin, this is where we’ll stay!

"Where do I start!! The house was absolutely beautiful. The location was perfect and I can just go on and on about the size of the pool that was a great size for my large family. We had more than enough space for my family of 15! Unfortunately the weather was not that great but we spent that time at the house enjoying the various balcony views and the living space to spread out. Everything we needed was there and everything we wanted was in walking distance. I was beyond pleased with the availability of contacting and communicating with the rental office. I would love future updates of availability for this house as we love to come to Destin yearly. This house was a 10 out of 10 and Ihighly recommend it!

Awesome house

Review Date: July 10, 2023

Vacation Date: July 3, 2023

"12 of us stayed here and it was perfect!
The house is in a perfect location.
4 min walk to the beach, right beside Alvin’s souvenir store and a 5-10 minute walk to Badass coffee, Pompeno Joes and rolled ice cream!
The house is stocked with everything you need.
It would be nice if beach towels and chairs were there already because we flew so was limited on lugagge, but thankfully half of our group drove so they were able take them. There is a chair/umbrella rental place on the beach, just go down to the little hut on the beach to the left of our beach access gate. Just plan on doing the week rental if you’ll be at the beach everyday because it’s a lot cheaper.
There is a wagon and some beach toys, floats in the deck box.
The beds and pillows were sooo comfy! I meant to look to see what kind of pillows they were but I forgot.
There’s plenty of towels and washcloths in all the bathrooms.
The only suggestion I would have is putting a rug in front of the kitchen sink.
We had an absolute wonderful time and hope to be back.

Side note: our plane came in that morning and check In Wasnt until 4 so we stored our luggage at UPS (maybe 5 mins from house). It was awesome!
It was like $5.60 a bag. Book it thru .

"We had a party of 14 adults, 5 of which are 70+ years old. This house is perfectly located with easy access and a short walk to the beach, shopping and restaurants. Having the pool to relax by was an added bonus! The kitchen was a little snug when prepping meals, but manageable. The kitchen was missing a few much needed items: most notable, additional dish cloths & rags (only 1 of each supplied), a paring knife and a decent cutting board- all of which are very important when providing meals for large groups.
The bedrooms and baths were all comfortable and spacious, with ample receptacles electronics. Bunks all had individual lamps and usb/110 outlets bedside. The bottom floor was great for gathering with the open floor plan.
