Wonderful family vacation
We had a great time! The check-in process was simple and seamless. The house was clean and had everything we needed, including a well-appointed kitchen with everything necessary to cook a few meals during our stay. We loved the proximity to the beach, and to shopping, and the golf cart was extremely handy. Our favorite feature of the house was the lovely outdoor living room.

We had a wonderful time. The house was perfect for what we needed. We were happy to have the golf cart to take to the beach and cruise around the neighborhood. We loved cooling off in the pool late afternoon. My husband and I enjoyed sitting on the patio with a glass of wine. The location of the house is perfect too! Since you are closer to town, less time sitting in traffic when going out to dinner or exploring the town for activities. The owners were great and attentive. The kitchen is well stocked with cookware and utensils. The upstairs was warmer than we prefer when we sleep so we did turn it down at night. We were with 2 of our grown kids(40&32) and 1 teenager(16). I loved the king mattress but the kids said their mattresses made them roll to the center all night. That was the only downside but over all we loved it and we would stay here again.

Walk to the beach!
The house was exactly what we needed! We wanted a few days at the beach with 2 moms and 8 boys. There was plenty of room for everyone to sleep, the living room couch was so comfortable and lent itself to gather everyone together to play games. The kitchen was easy to use and had plenty of pots, pans, glasses, silverware to feed the hungry boys. The pool with the turf around it was perfect and outside area had flexible seating and lots of space to unwind and enjoy after the beach. Lydia and Murray were excellent hosts!

Destin home away from home!
My family and I enjoyed Lydia’s place so much! It literally felt like we were home. The pool was great and the perfect size for my family. The kids stayed in it daily during our stay lol it’s great to know that this home was their family home where they raised their 3 sons. There was more than enough space for us and bathrooms and super close to the beach access. It’s walking distance but the golf cart was a great addition. Lydia was helpful in making sure we felt welcomed and knew the ins and outs of Destin. Communication was top tier. Any questions we had were answered/addressed promptly. We would love to come back maybe during the summer! Thanks again

This was the perfect house for the 11 of us that spent the weekend. The covered porch was great for hanging out in the shade, the pool was very clean, and the front yard is perfect for cornhole.

Last minute getaway
This was very last minute after cancelling my birthday trip to Jamaica. I was shocked to find such a beautiful property so close to the 4th. House was very clean and the amenities were great. Especially the pool. We didn’t need to buy anything. Property is right around the corner from everything. Lydia was very responsive and accommodating. I’m hoping we make this an annual trip moving forward - and will definitely stay more than two nights in the future.

Great location with nice pool
We rent in Destin every year. We enjoy the location and proximity to the beach. This property is average based on what we normally see. It is a nice home, but the previous reviews set unrealistic expectations.
We were expecting a little more based on the review we read prior to booking, but were not surprised with the reality. It has clearly been a rental for a very long time and needs a little tlc. The mattress in the owner's suite has two dips that are about 6" deep, with what feels like a mound in the middle (certainly seems like it was a nice mattress when it was newer). Your are basically stuck in one spot in the bed while sleeping. The outdoor cushioned furniture is torn. While the home is relatively clean, we found excess layers of dust in the downstair bath and light fixtures. Also, our kids feet would turn black when they walked bare foot.
