Outstanding!

Great house, well maintained with plenty of space for a large group. Owner was easy to work with. Nice development in a great location. Only downside was limited parking - only 2 cars can park in front of house. Other cars have to park a block away in the overflow lot.

Very nice place. So much storage and ample dishes and towels. A bit further to the beach than listed but it’s a nice beach and loved that 2 chairs and an umbrella were included. Also like they had children’s puzzles and sand toys. We went for my dream of having our entire family for my 70th birthday. My dream fulfilled

Perfect for our extended family.

Our family has been vacationing in Destin since the grandchildren were babies. All four are now adults (3 in college and one married), and we are still able to carry on this tradition. We came from three different locations in Alabama and one from Colorado, which necessitated space for multiple vehicles. Maravilla covered that problem beautifully with its on-site overflow parking areas. This house with its five bedrooms and three baths was fantastic. I also want to say the kitchen is the most well-stocked one we have ever had in a vacay rental. The walk to the beach might be a challenge with young children (the only negative I can think of) but no problem for older kids and adults. Thanks to the owners for sharing.

Great Rental

This was the 3rd year traveling to the Panhandle of Florida/Alabama. This house had spacious room for our 2 families of 5. It is about 400 yards to the beach, but the wagon provided, sidewalks and easy crossing of Scenic Hwy 98 was very manageable. The 2 chairs and umbrella service was a major plus. We sent one of the dads down at 8am (when beach service started), got our setup location reserved and we all came back at 10 or 11. Plenty of dishes and amenities. The gated community was nice and only 5 minutes to a Winn Dixie and outlet malls. We liked being East of Hwy 293 coming into Mid Bay Bridge. We actually came into town and left town to the East and avoided the Mid Bay Bridge toll. The heated swimming pool and hot tub was used by all every night after the beach cooled off. There is a small fitness room with a treadmill, elliptical and bike; plus free weights and a bench. I was able to workout every morning before enjoying the day. Pam was very responsive and returned calls and emails in a timely matter. I would recommend this.
