Welcome to Beach Buck Destin in the Center of it All. One of the largest homes in this gated community and with private Gulf frontage! Beach Buck, with 8,035 sq ft of space under roof with plenty of room to host your family reunion, corporate retreat, church group visit, guys trip or gals trip with beachfront living with an elevator and its on-site work out room. Dunes of Destin has a community pool 1/4 mile of Beach Buck.

First, a little history about us…Why is it named Beach Buck? We started with VRBO around 8 years ago with our 1st of 7 lodges in Gatlinburg, Buckhead Lodge. For years, our guests have asked if we had anything to offer them at the beach. Well, when we lost our 1st lodge, Buckhead Lodge in the wildfires, 2016, we decided to give them a beach option.

Located in the heart and soul of Destin, Dunes of Destin is a private, gated community. This upscale community is one of the most exclusive vacation communities Destin has to offer! Amenities include a private beach, a community pool, gazebos and a private lake with beautiful fountains that are lighted and look stunning at night. This community is beautifully maintained and lovely to stroll at any time of day.

Dunes of Destin is just minutes from everything the area has to offer. There is something for everyone in the family! You may enjoy world class shopping at one of the areas many shopping centers – Destin Commons, Silver Sands Factory Stores, Harbor Walk Village and the shops at Baytowne Wharf. The Destin area is home to countless award winning restaurants, nationally renowned golf courses and many great outdoor and indoor activities.

We have always held our guests in high esteem and cared for their health as well. We have our own commercial washer and dryer machines that are never integrated with anyone else's linens but ours. We have always incorporated bleach cleaning but have also added alcohol cleaning of high traffic locations such as tv remotes, light switches, keypads, alarm pads, etc. For many years, we have utilized an HVAC UV light purification system. The benefits for that air purification system are:

Reduce almost all the bacteria and mold, as well as other pathogen agents that are airborne and therefore, travel through your house. The UV lights installed in the HVAC system don’t allow the buildup of any organic material inside the system itself that would, otherwise, harbor these pathogens.

In the absence of pathogen agents, mold, virus and bacteria, the incidence of colds and flu will also be reduced. As a result, the cost efficiency of UV lights will show itself in time, considering their health benefits.

Get rid of fouls smells. They are also caused by bacteria and fungus which give out a musty smell that spreads throughout the house.

Prevent algae growth.

Enjoy this extremely spacious 8 bedroom, 9 bath beachfront home located in Dunes of Destin. Walk to Big Kahuna, Dunkin Donuts, Hershey’s ice cream parlor, Mellow Mushroom and more. Experience the beauty in this magnificent private home with a residential elevator that accesses all 4 floors. Views from the 2nd, 3rd and 4th levels of the Gulf with a private dune walkover.

A gem

Our family of 19 were so impressed with the accommodations. 8 adults and 11 kids ranging from 8-17. The 4 master suites were perfect for the adults…..each with a private balcony. So conveniently located we were able to walk to souvenir shops, fish market, ice cream and candy store. Publix is just a few miles away. Spent most of our time on the beach but did go deep sea fishing and caught plenty of fish for dinner. We have stayed at many VRBOs in many locations, but we all agreed…..this was our favorite. It was a 10. Thank you to our host Tari. The few times we had questions, she responded very quickly. We hope to book again.

50th Birthday Party

We celebrated my husband’s 50th on the property. We had 8 couples. Location is amazing and proximity to the beach was a dream! The kitchen was fully stocked with all of the amenities we needed. We had a small issue pop up, but I contacted the owner and it was addressed right away. Would definitely recommend staying at Beach Buck! You will not be disappointed!

An Amazing Vacation

We celebrated our 50th anniversary with our children, grandchildren, and other family members - 22 people. The house was excellent- clean, spacious, and welcoming. We felt at home and enjoyed the patios, the pool, and the beach. The view of the gulf was so breathtaking and relaxing. Our chef son and family were able to prepare delicious meals in the well equipped kitchen Ann the outside grill. Our hostess Tari was an excellent communicator and immediately responded to resolve any problems. This was the best vacation we have ever had in Destin.

About the host

Hosted by Tari Furey - Buckhead Rentals

Host profile image
My name is Tari. While I am most familiar with the Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg, TN area, the same things that guests want there can be and are applied in Destin. :) So that's what we've done.

Why they chose this property

The home is HUGE! Over 8,000 ft under roof after you figure the balconies and porches and exercise room situated on a private beach. Destin is becoming a mini-Pigeon Forge area with similar attractions there as found in Pigeon Forge so it's a nice connection for our guests.

What makes this property unique

An elevator to all 4 floors, beach front home, gated community, 2 miles to Destin Harbor.
