3 Bed/2.5 Bath Waterfront Townhouse w/ Boat Slip

5 out of 5 average rating, 35 reviews2 weeks ago

After previous plans to celebrate our 10 year wedding anniversary fell through, my husband and I wound up booking this place for a same day check in. The hosts were super responsive and able to accommodate us! We arrived to find the place easy to check into, very clean and exactly as described! It was such a beautiful and peaceful location and drinking our coffee out on the dock every morning was our favorite thing! The hosts were also super responsive and helpful when we couldn’t figure out how to get the grill to work! This is definitely in our top two places we have ever stayed and we hope to make it back for another visit sometime!!

The host made everything available from Bikes,paddleboard,electric scooters,ice chests, umbrellas, kayaks and the brand new Hot Tub with views feet from the water. I would rate this above 5 stars if possible. Definitely would love to stay there again.

Destin Harbor - Beaches - Deepwater Boat Slip

4.88 out of 5 average rating, 84 reviews1 month ago

Had a great time during our stay! Brad was very responsive when I reached out to him about the dirty air filter/vent in the hallway near the master bedroom (one person in our party is very allergic to dust). While we weren’t able to change the filter ourselves, Brad was helpful when we spoke. We decided to sleep in the downstairs instead, which worked out just fine. The location of the townhouse is near the Easy Jetty, amazing sunsets and ability to relax on the beach. Sitting on the lower deck was also relaxing and we were able to view the fish and ducks swimming around. Would definitely stay here the next time we’re in Destin!

We had a great stay in Santa Rosa beach. We got to experience the florida blizzard during our trip! It was a very short walk to the beach and it was nice to wake up to the views of the lake especially when the dock was covered with snow. Thank you Elizabeth for sharing your home

Cozy Beach Cottage with Dock and a Water Swing

5 out of 5 average rating, 11 reviews1 month ago

Book now! We just finished our trip at this beautiful location, and it was absolutely perfect! The setting is a true gem—peaceful and scenic. We loved every moment of our stay. The private beach and backyard amenities were fantastic, providing an ideal place to relax and unwind. Inside, the home was just as lovely—thoughtfully decorated and cozy, with everything we needed. The kitchen was fully stocked with all the cooking tools we could ask for, making meal preparation a breeze. Additionally, the owners were incredibly responsive and ensured we had everything we needed. We can easily imagine returning to this spot again! I highly recommend it for anyone looking for a serene getaway with all the comforts of home. It is super family-friendly! We had six children (ages 1 to 17) and six adults, and everyone had a great time!

We visit the same area a couple times a year and love bringing the boat, so this place was great! We had a 6 and 8 year old with us. They always had something to do with the canal being there! The deck was perfect. It’s a short walk to the beach, also great for us! We visited a couple different areas, seeing sea turtles at one. It has kayaks, another great perk! There were a few things it didn’t have. We had to buy a coffee maker for pods the first day. There are no TVs except the living room. We like to relax in the evenings at bedtime. No wagon or beach chairs. I know a lot of places don’t have this, but it’s so nice when they do! Overall, this is an amazing place. Perfect for fishing and being on the water!

Horacio communicated very well with us the whole step of the way. We came down for an early anniversary getaway, and the condo did not disappoint. It was exactly as explained with no surprises. If we have any questions he was quick to respond. We had everything we needed there. We didn’t spend a lot of time except for later in the evening, but we didn’t want for anything. It was an awesome experience. We will rent from him again.
