The location is amazing! You are right across from the beach and it’s so easy going back and forth. No onbstructed view of the gulf either!! We absolutely enjoyed our stay and would definitely visit again.

Great stay
Great location and enjoyed our stay. The only issue was the parking. We put the parking passes on our dashboards but when we got back from the beach on the first day there was a tow warning on our vehicles. After speaking with the host I guess we had to fill out the pass ( this was not in any of the instructions ) there were other cars with tow warnings as well and they had passes on them that weren't filled out either. After filling out the pass we had no issues.

Great location, good property
Property is in fairly good shape. Washer/dryer is quite old and could be replaced. Rugs were a tripping hazard and definitely need to be replaced as they are rolling up on all edges and everyone in our group tripped on them at least once. I would not attempt to sleep 6 here. It was a little tight with just 2 adults and a toddler. Extremely close to the beach an easy 2 min walk across the street. Great views of the ocean from the small balcony. Parking is great, while not reserved there was no problem finding a space close to the unit. Overall, 4/5.

One of the best!
4A is one of the best villas to stay in. Great views of the gulf and of course Four Prong Lake in the back. An absurdly short walk to the beach. Complimentary beach chair service. The condo it self was really nicely decorated and kept up. The washing machine did give me some troubles. Management was very responsive when needed. I would definitely stay here again! (I’ve stayed in Destiny Beach Villas 3 times now!)

Great spot across from the beach
Overall we had a nice stay and really liked the location. The stay came with two chairs and an umbrella on the beach which was an added bonus that we appreciated. The checkin and checkout process was easy. The unit was clean and we had no issues with parking and felt very safe with the constant patrol of police in the neighborhood. There is a road out front and because the speed limit is low there is no road noise. The condo does not come stocked with useful items like laundry soap, dishwasher pods, trash bags, foil, food storage items, etc. and the water dispenser on the fridge was not working. We managed though and only used the kitchen for breakfast and lunch. We would stay again!

We enjoyed our stay a lot. The views were beautiful. It was easy to check in (we were very late due to traffic). If you rent this villa make sure to bring pillow cases or your own pillows and coffee to get you started the following day.

What a view!!
We had a fantastic stay in the villa! The view was fantastic from the top deck area. The villa was clean and very comfortable. We were located near a lot of very nice, upscale homes, and it was an easy walk to the beach. The views were amazing from front and back decks! We would definitely stay in this area again. There were plenty of towels, and necessities waiting for us and multiple grocery stores nearby in case we needed anything. Even 2 coffee makers! There was a great restaurant just across the street called the Crab Trap that was probably our best meal of the week. The shower was fantastic and the beds were comfortable! Thank you for an amazing stay and thank you VRBO for the communication.

Great spot!
Couldn't have been in a better location, 2 minute walk to the beach and also to a really good restaurant, The Crab Trap. Beach service which included 2 chairs and an umbrella was great. Beaches were very nice, views were outstanding, weather was awesome! Just a couple things that we found troublesome but not really a big deal was that the sun comes right into the rooms at 6 am so a shade or curtain would be a nice addition. Also just 1 shower with 5 people was a little hard to manage but it was doable. I wouldn't let these 2 things deter from renting this property. We had a great time and would absolutely do it again!
