awesome place very close to beach!

Location was perfect, just a short walk to the beach. House was beautiful and had all the right amenities we needed. Pool stayed warm, and the spa was nice and hot.

So, the only complaint I have is that we didn’t book for two weeks instead of one! The host was very responsive. The home was gorgeous and spacious. Next door, there is construction going on so my entire car was covered in saw dust but that is not at fault of this particular place and I would still stay again even with the mess my car had on it. The construction did not disturb us in the least bit. The views were gorgeous, the beds were comfortable, and I loved the decoration within the home. We loved our stay.

This house is very spacious so you aren’t on top of each other. There were 9 of us, 3 were kids. The pool is a good size for beach properties and the view of the lake is great!

Property was beautiful.

The property was beautiful and very spacious. The company was quick to respond. We had issues with the golf cart. Tires were bald and we blew a tire while driving it. It was fixed quickly but ahould not have waited that long to get fixed.

The house was amazing… we all slept comfortably and had plenty of space to spread out… will definitely be back!

Ryan’s home was very clean and comfortable. We had plenty of room for all of our guests. Ryan was very responsive to any questions or concerns we had. I would definitely book again in the future.

This vacation was so nice. The latest reviews had us worried about coming but we had a magnificent time. Yes there is construction next door but you’re at the beach. The view was awesome. House was great. Come with a golf cart. The management company has changed so look for correspondence from Travel Life Vacations. That isn’t stated well in the current listing and cause some concern when I wasn’t hearing from the booking prior to arriving. But they are wonderful and very responsive. We will be back to this house and Destin. There was something for everyone.

Came here for a bachelorette trip. We loved the house, it was very spacious, everyone had a bed and bathroom and the kitchen dining room/living room was spacious as well. The kitchen was fully stocked with utensils and pans which was nice. Only thing that I gave a star off for was that we didn't know they were doing construction next to the house. Luckily they were only there the first day we got there. We also wish that there were trash bags easily available to us but we made due with what we had. The hot tub was amazing and the both the pool and hot tub heated up pretty quickly so it was always ready for when we wanted to go in. Overall, we would definitely book this house again. The hosts were super nice and answered right away!

Loved the location of the property. Close to everything our family needed which gave us more time to spend together. House was beautiful. Owners were easy to communicate with and were very accommodating! We would definitely stay again!

We came down for our mini-moon and had a wonderful. We really enioyed the house and how convenient it was to the beach!!

Beautiful home and great location. We enjoyed having the pool right there and being close to the beach as well. We were happy with all the amenities provided. Kitchen was stocked well for making meals and beds were quite comfortable. Host communicated well and was very responsive. I would highly recommend. This was our first visit to Destin and we hope to return and stay here again!

We were very pleased with the home and the amenities provided. Great location to the beach and various restaurants. The host was super responsive to calls, texts and e-mails. Would highly recommend this property for your stay in Destin, Fl. Hope to stay there again.

This house was great for our family and the grand parents! The owners were super nice and easy to work with!

House and pool were great, and those frogs at night are hilarious! We will definitely be back!

If you’re looking to rest and relax, this is the perfect spot. Whether it’s by the pool, relaxing at the dock staring at the lake, or a 5 minute walk to the beach - this location has it all. Sara was so friendly and welcoming & always quick to respond to questions. We rented a golf cart, but it definitely wasn’t necessary as the Crab Trap is right across from the neighborhood entrance. Definitely want to return back to Destin and can’t think of a better place to stay!

Carlos was going through a major emergency at home but still went out of his way to make sure we had everything we needed and even more! This beautiful home is so centrally located to shops, restaurants and the beach. It is also very, very spacious. We will be coming back again. It was a wonderful week! Thank you Carlos and Sara!

First time to Destin and we will be back! The house was wonderful but even better was Sara! So responsive to everything we needed. The house is more spacious than si anticipated. We had 9 people and had plenty of room. Beach is right outside the neighborhood so not much to walk however you may want to drive if your taking a lot of kids suff. Overall we will be back! Perfect house for what we like to do!

This was our first time to Destin, 1st VRBO and 1st family vacation with our grandsons. The home and location was perfect for 7 adults and 2 little boys. Sara and Carlos were very accommodating and always responded to us immediately. We loved the lake view, quiet area and short walk to the beach. We can’t wait to return!

Beautiful property with even better owners! I would rent this place again without thinking twice about it! Great communication with owners & perfect location.

- Posted: 4/12/2023

The communication with host was probably the best I’ve ever experienced! The house was clean and beautiful! The beach is close enough to walk to it. Couple things to know before you go. Hot tub doesn’t get super hot. Only goes to 90 so on a cold day it’s chilly! Also plan to buy toilet paper and possibly dish soap and laundry detergent. There wasn’t much when we arrived so before trip was over we had to get all those items for our use. Overall I would stay here again!! The beds were so so comfortable and I miss them!!

- Posted: 3/20/2023

Thank you so much for the feedback as it helps us improve. 1. An oversight on our part to highlight. The dish soap disperser is built in. It’s on the left side of the sink. 2. We will make sure we leave more toilet paper per bathroom and laundry detergent. Sincerely, Sara

Les pieds dans l'eau de la Ria d'Etel, à 20 minutes d'Auray et de Carnac, 30 minutes de Lorient et de Vannes, 45 minutes de Quiberon, cette location est idéalement placée pour visiter le Morbihan. Les amateurs de pêche à pied seront également ravis. Accueil sympathique dans cette grande maison, le jardin se prête aux jeux d'été, et les repas au bord de l'eau sont plus qu'appréciés !

We had a fabulous holiday, the house was as described in a lovely location. The garden is fairly flat leading to the sea via a set of steps, when the tide is in you can swim directly from the steps, when the tide is out you can collect cockles and eat them for your dinner. The house is great for your holiday with plenty of space, the beds could perhaps be updated (very squeeky and mattresses are old) however we did sleep really well so not a complaint, just an observation! We are very familiar with the local area and when we come back to the area again I would happily come back to this house. Thank you for a lovely holiday.
