EARLY ARRIVALS

Therefore, if you have an early flight, please plan to book an extra day so that you may check in before 4 pm. If that isn't an option, our PCB properties have many options for public beach access, but our favorite would be Public Beach Access 54-57, right in front of Pier Park!

The best week ā¤ļø

We just stayed at Happy Times! We had the best week. The home was exactly as described and exactly what we needed. The walk to the beach was so easy and quick! Communication could not have been any better! The only suggestion I have is that I wish there had been a broom, I would have certainly swept up after us daily! And maybe a few more towels and washcloths. Other than that we had everything we needed! We look down to staying again!

Dirty Floors

The floors were dirty. They were never cleaned as I found a pair of socks in a bathroom and a razor cover in another one. The house needs an overall good cleaning.

About the host

Host profile image
Forever Vacation Rentals
Shannon and I moved from St. Louis, MO to Destin, FL in the Summer of 2011. I have over 20 years in the Property Management field, including Vacation Rentals, Multi-Family, and Senior Living. I am also a Realtor with Worth Clark Realty. Shannon is our ā€œgo to guyā€ and always goes above and beyond. He handles the majority of operations, which includes Inspecting and Scheduling Turns, Owners Statements, Accounting, and helping to oversee our Housekeeping Department. You will find that we are passionate and very hands-on. Not only are we available to our Homeowner's at all times, we are also available to our guests.

God has blessed us with our two children, Riley and Jax. Our hearts and home are also filled with our fur babies! We look forward to our Friday night movies at home with our children, fishing (although we aren't any good at it – haha), church, and Sunday football. We are very family oriented and find that most homeowners become like family to us.

In the Spring of 2016, we expanded our business by hiring Debbie. She is my amazing mom! When it came time to hire someone, it only made sense to bring her on board! You honestly can't find a more caring, loyal, and trustworthy person! Debbie handles all of our reservations and during the summer months, she helps with our inspections. If you ever want to hear a friendly voice and be uplifted, call her!

We can't forget about the rest of our team! EVERY. SINGLE. PERSON. on our team is important to our success. Our goal is to hire folks with passion, enthusiasm, and motivation to win! We want them to know that no detail is too small, and a happy guest is a repeat guest! There is nothing more rewarding than to receive a compliment about how genuine and hard-working we are! Small gestures go a long way in this business! We love to WOW!
