We loved our stay at this home! Check-in and communication was very easy. The home had everything we could want and more. We loved the spaciousness, location, and layout. The porches were incredible (especially during storms) with rocking chairs and a porch swing. The property offered a great amount of privacy thanks to strategic landscaping that also kept temperatures enjoyable even with a 110 heat index. We would absolutely stay here again! Thank you so much for a wonderful week in Destin!

Family vacation

The home is nice, the living space is small for the amount this home can accommodate. The kitchen needs stocked with more silverware to accommodate a large crowd. The skillets could use a replacement. I would recommend having some additional chairs on porch that are appropriate for senior citizens. We did enjoy the swing in the mornings and evenings. Thank you for sharing your home, it is in a quiet neighborhood.

Family Vacation

Overall we loved the home, location, and the communication. I do wish that things in the kitchen could be left for others to enjoy. Seasoning, non parishable food items especially, etc. We were able to disperse to neighbors, just hard to throwing a lot of things away because you’re flying! I do highly recommend and we will look into this rental in the future.

Family Time

The best part of this vacation was down time with the family. We enjoyed the beach during the days and game night in the evening. There was 14 of us and there was plenty of room. The little ones loved the pool in the evenings. I loved the double wrap around deck. I was impressed at how well the kitchen had everything we needed from utensils to pots and pans The beds were very comfortable. I woke up feeling refreshed every morning. The only thing that I would add to this stay would be rugs in front of the doors coming from outside to keep the floors from getting messy. We will definitely be back !!

Excellent experience

First family vacation we've been on in 10yrs this rental was perfect for the 11 of us we each had our own space but still plenty of room for all of us to be together. The house was very well located as far as access to the beach and numerous shopping locations along with many mini golf courses and arcades. Plenty of places to eat out within the range of the golf cart that's included with the property so that made it really nice. I would highly recommend this property and rental company to anyone looking my family will definitely be booking threw them again.

Fabulous place

The house was amazing. We found the property to be exactly as described and actually even better. There is a lot of room so families can be together or not. It can be your choice. We traveled with an 8 month old so the bonus room was perfect for allowing her to sleep in a quiet space. The pool area is small but perfect for the 9 of us. The walk to the beach is very short. It is only a block away. However, there is also a 6 person golf cart that we used daily! We used it for grocery runs, trips to the beach, going out to eat and shopping of course! Overall, i would highly recommend this property. The Frangista Beach folks contacted us several times to make sure we had everything we needed. Check in and check out could not have been easier!

Destin Dream!

The name definitely fits this house. It was perfect for us!! My best friend and I made a pact to travel with our families once a year to the beach and this place has been our favorite so far! It’s so close to the Beach you can hear the waves sitting on the porch. The covered Porsche and balconies were amazing. So much covered porch space which was a lifesaver bc it rained all but 2 of the 7 days we were there. I’ll be honest…reading the weather forecast had me questioning whether or not we would be able to enjoy ourselves knowing we would spend a significant amount of time IN the house…but it was perfect. The kids were occupied in the pool or playing some of the board games they had available. The golf cart was fun and very handy. Parking at the beach was a breeze in that thing. It fit all of us plus our beach gear. Just all around a very pleasant experience. The host made sure we had everything we needed and went above and beyond to accommodate our group! Thank you for the memories!!

We had a great week and Destin Dreaming met all our need.

The rental company was great and the location was wonderful. This is our 11 th year renting in Destin. Destin Dreaming was the most outdated / run down place we have ever rented It definitely needs some TLC. Carpets were worn and dirty. Kitchen is small for the size of the house. Overall it was fine, but there are much nicer more kept up properties we have rented through VRBO

Needs a very deep cleaning and lots of pest control

Positives were the location to the beach and Destin Commons. Property company did respond and was available for communication. However nothing could fix how dirty and gross this home was. It needs a massive deep clean; dusty baseboards, dirty doors, walls, and cabinets, carpet hadn’t been vacuumed when we arrived. We turned over the inside door mat and there were several urine stains. Worst was we arrived to two semi dead cockroaches on the living room floor. Then continued to find them in various places throughout the home (bathtubs, floors, walls). I was cleaning more on vacation than I do at home. Do not recommend.
