Optional Beach service: As a courtesy to guests, we offer a discounted beach service. If you choose this option, vendors will set up two umbrellas and four chairs, Sunday-Friday from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Many of our guests enjoy this amenity as it guarantees a reserved spot on the beach and does not require you to lug the umbrellas and chairs back and forth yourself. This typically runs about $500 a week, through the vendor. But, because we have a contract with them we offer it to you for the steeply discounted rate of $250 + tax.

Memorial week
Our family and close friends returned to Destin to fulfill my husband's final wishes and spread some of his ashes. It was a difficult trip and I didn't want to book where we normally stayed. This property was absolutely perfect for what we needed. Plenty of common space for many people, EXCELLENT back yard and outdoor kitchen, quiet area, very easy beach access, water view. We loved it and the gold cart was handy.

Beautiful beach house!
My family enjoyed our weeks stay at this place. The heated pool was lovely and we enjoyed it each day after the beach. We used the grill and the guest house. My favorite room was the master on the second floor. The shower looks like it has been updated. Beach access close by and we rented a golf cart which we used a lot. Definitely a nice place to stay!!!

Bahama Breeze - Destin
The back yard is great at Bahama Breeze in Destin. The house is clean, but certainly not a luxury home. We have been going to Destin each summer with our sons and now with their families for over 20 years and have stayed in 'luxury' homes. The inside of the house does not look like the pictures. Its kinda beat up inside and the living room furniture is old/worn looking - not what is in the pictures. The kitchen is well stocked with all you need to cook, etc.; however, the overhead light is nothing more than a nightlight and there is no light over the sink or under cabinets which makes it impossible to see what you are cooking or doing. There is an extra refrigerator in laundry room, but it has no shelves or drawers. Front door cannot be locked from inside. Our 2 1/2 year old great granddaughter opened the door twice and ran out so we had to barricade the door and move the stuff to go in and out. Driveway is listed as fitting 6 vehicles, we could only get 4 in it. The house is close to beach - short walk or golf cart ride. One family member said the house reminds them of a frat house.

Perfect Week in Destin
We thoroughly enjoyed the house, and everyone had plenty of room. We were traveling with our adult children and their friends. The golf cart was a fun extra vehicle for short nearby trips, and the beach chairs and umbrellas set up were super close. The house was well stocked, with many items not included in other vacation rentals—plenty of extra beach chairs and a wagon. We used the grill multiple nights, and it was very nice. The pool was hit for all of us, and beach towels were provided. The property manager had communicated all the helpful house information before our rental, so we were all set as soon as we arrived. Thank you, Freya!

Destin for Sixty Trip
I had this trip planned for close to a year. The owners and Vrbo were great to work with in communicating before the arrival and were quickly available to address any questions. The place was perfect for my months stay with different groups of family and friends. The pool and outdoor space was perfect and the beach access was right across the street. I plan to come back! It was a wonderful birthday celebration!

Family Holiday
We had a wonderful family vacation. There were 16 of us ranging from 2 yrs old to 83 yrs old. Everyone had a great time. Golf cart was a nice bonus to haul around kids and beach toys. The kids were in the pool every day and we had absolutely no issues with the heater as previously mentioned. Any issue we had was immediately addressed and resolved. (There weren't towels in every bathroom and a couple beds were missing a blanket). The location is perfect and the house is just beautiful.

Great House, Not the best beach access
We had a good stay. Comfortable beds, tons of items in the kitchen to use for a large group. Loved that there was a large pantry. Backyard was nice, pool was great. Communication was wonderful, we had a couple issues with the pool heat and they responded and took care of the issues very quickly. The house could use a good deep cleaning. Glad we didn't have 6 cars, 4 was a tight fit getting in and out. Only negative thing was the public beach access across the street. It's an entry way not a beach due to the private beaches. People were literally right on top of your stuff. We didn't walk to the other access down the road due to how much stuff and kids we had with us. When booking we booked based off of the beach access being right across the street so that was disappointing.

Would stay again
Communication with the property manager was great. Freya was so nice. The kitchen is fully stocked with anything you could need to cook family dinners. The house could definitely use some upgrades. The fence in the backyard was pretty raggedy. The floors really need a good cleaning. It didn't seem as if they had been scrubbed in quite some time. While waiting on our uber, we did run into one of the maintenance men. He was also very nice and told us the house will be receiving updates very soon. We told him the front door was coming off of its hinges, he was very quick to fix it. The beach service is kind of far. It would have been nice if it was at the first beach access. With all of that being said we would still definitely stay again. Our flights were changed on both the day we arrived and the day we left. Freya was very accommodating in letting us leave our luggage outback before check in and after check out which we were so thankful for. My family loved the stay and we didn't want to leave.

Great place, lousy neighboring beach condos.
The house had great beds & pillows, the kitchen had lots of good knives, stainless pots & large bowls & pitchers that were big enough for our family (8 adults & 7 children). The pool & yard activities were fun, and it was great to have 4 couches in the living room. The closest beach access is bordered on both sides by condos that have taken their “possession” of the beach way too far! They rope off “their” area and have bouncers (at least on Sunday) How unpleasant! It only leaves 30 feet of beach access. It is much nicer to walk down a few blocks (even though we had 2 nursing moms & diapers & naps). So, we weren’t close like we wanted to be because of the lousy neighbors ☹️

Destin never disappoints
We all had such a great time! The property was very comfortable with the large group we had. Enough space for everyone. Pool was a nice feature; however, it was more like a hot tub since the temps were so hot, so not the best at trying to cool down. Since there were some teenagers with us, the pool table and ping pong table were a hit. It was nice to have a washer and dryer to keep items clean and dry. There were two refrigerators, which made it nice to store our beverages in one and food in the other. The only issue was the second refrigerator needed some tlc. It lacked shelving and it took a long time to cool things down. We had one little snag with some amenities that weren’t readily available or functioning properly but after contacting the manager, they quickly responded and took care of it. The property was in walking distance to the beach, as well as to restaurants, shopping, and other entertainment. The only thing that was needed was more paper towels and TP. This was a large group and we were provided the bare minimum (two rolls of TP per bathroom and only two rolls of paper towels). Overall, we had a great experience and would book this property again. Thank you!
