“Ocean Views” got its name from the fourth-floor rooftop sundeck that provides panoramic views of the sparkling Gulf and the nearby coastal dune lake. Settle into the Adirondack chairs with a cup of coffee early in the morning to watch a magnificent sunrise. Or, let this be the gathering place for everyone in the evening to have a cool drink and watch the sunset, and then star-gaze until your heart’s content. This Destin luxury beach rental is a multi-floor home that sleeps 14 designed for guests to feel like they are visiting someone’s island villa. Located in the gated community of Destiny by the Sea, visitors will be inspired to plunge into the neighborhood’s lagoon-shaped swimming pool or hot tub. Better yet, guests are only two blocks from the emerald-green waters of the Gulf of Mexico, and there are two private beach boardwalks to lead you right to the water’s edge.
The main living area is on the second floor, which includes an open concept, multiple couches and chairs to gather around the flat-screen TV. The beautiful indoor fireplace is meant for visual enjoyment only and is not intended for guest use. There’s also a convenient half-bath adjoining this area. The efficient kitchen is fully outfitted with stainless steel appliances and bar-top seating. There’s also a quaint breakfast nook, but the balcony might entice you to dine alfresco while watching nature put on a show. Another guest room is on this floor with rich mahogany furnishings and a king bed. The ensuite bath has a walk-in shower with a waterfall shower-head feature.
The primary bedroom has a spacious king bed on the third floor. The ensuite bath includes a soaking tub, a glassed-in shower, and double vanities. Relax on the romantic, private balcony or in the sitting area just outside the primary bedroom. A second guest bedroom on this level has a king bed and an ensuite bath with a walk-in shower.
The first floor is the perfect area for an entire family. One-bedroom features two queen beds while the other has two full-size bunk beds, both with ensuite bathrooms. An added bonus on this level is the living area, where everyone can gather on the wrap-around couch to unwind with bedtime stories from a day at the beach. There’s also a convenient desk to write postcards to friends back home.
As if this weren’t enough, this Destin luxury vacation rental is conveniently located to various dining options, popular coastal attractions, and shopping adventures. A fun option is the Crab Trap, a Gulf-front restaurant and beach bar within walking distance of Ocean Views. What better time than now to book this luxury vacation rental in Destin, Florida.

Great house - perfect location
We’ve done multiple different spots over the years in Destin but this location was the best so far. Private neighborhood and beach were well maintained and getting to the actual private beach from house is 2 minutes via walking at most. House was clean and the layout worked well for a large family of 8.

Got to town early, was able to check in early, comfortably slept 6 adults and 7 kids, golf cart made store trips so easy, literally just over a short block to ocean, beach is full of cool wild life, kids will remember this forever, will definitely come back to this same gated community

Beach palace
For a group who travels around America, this is by far one of the best houses we have stayed at yet. Location is in a gated neighborhood right on the beach with friendly neighbors. Beach is quiet and relaxing. The house was very comfortable and we had plenty of room. The roof top was a great feature and nice when the sun was out. Location of the house is 10 min away from any restaurant you want to go to

Great property and location
Our group had a great stay at this property! The location was excellent and the house itself was beautiful and spacious. We particularly enjoyed the private beach access.A few things could be improved for future guests. While the kitchen was large, we found the cookware to be a bit lacking for a house designed to accommodate so many people. Also, the ice maker in the garage was leaking, though it wasn't a major issue for us.The biggest point of concern was the beach access bracelets. We checked in with a party of 17, but were only provided 14 bracelets for the private beach. We brought this to the attention of the management twice, but it was never resolved. Thankfully, we were only asked to show the bracelets once and the beach staff were understanding. However, this could have been a much bigger problem.Overall, we enjoyed our stay, but hope the management addresses these minor issues, especially the bracelet situation, for future guests.

Location location location
This house's location is spectacular. You are about 5 min walk to amazing (private beach). 15 min to public access beach. 3 min walk to the community pool. a few houses down from private gated entrance (security guard there). We loved the huge bedrooms all having own bathroom, beds were so comfortable! We loved the pretty well stocked kitchen, even though kitchen is a little small for us (16 people). We couldn't all sit down to eat together but we made it work (adults at dinner table, kids at buffet). Some of the pots nonstick is peeling off and eggs were sticking so we had to buy 2 pans since we were there all week. The bunk beds and queen beds on bottom floor were perfect, all the kids were downstairs. The views were incredible, our masters had sliding doors with balconys to enjoy views. We got to watch the fireworks from the rooftop deck on the 4th. very cool! The only things that made this stay less than perfect.Rules... there are A LOT of rules.. and I have no issue following rules but they are really strict about certain times putting out the trash and bringing it in, and if you make too much noise and the cops come you have a fine, and if you lose a plastic wristband its a fine. It just seemed we would be fined for a lot and it honestly just didnt feel very welcoming. My own fault for not knowing rules for private beach (no tents/canopys). rentals are $35 a day for 2 ppl which was pricy for us. We used the public beach during day & private for sunsets.
