Stayed here for a cheer competition in Destin

This was a great place to stay for me and my family and my 4 month old golden retriever. He loved the back yard and open layout of the house. The house had everything we needed and there was plenty of room for everyone.

We booked this home to escape hurricane Milton, and it has been such a blessing to be able to have safe place to stay with my family. The house is very clean, is close to everything and has everything you could ask for. Kayla is an excellent and welcoming host and she responds immediately to any concerns. We are extremely grateful for her and her graciousness.

Weekend get away…

This was a nice long weekend get away with my wife and parents. We took our boat and fished in the bay. The property was in a VERY convenient location. It was a quiet neighborhood close to the grocery stores and Fred Gannon park where we launched our boat. The house floor plan was open, the accommodations were comfortable, lighting was good, coffee bar stocked with flavored creamers, and as a bonus to me, pet friendly so our dog could come along with us. We enjoyed our stay at Westin Haus and definitely recommend it.

Our stay

We loved the house it was very clean, and there was more than enough room for my family of 6. In the master bed room there is a gap between the headboard and mattress. The pillow that's there to fill in the gap kept falling in the gap whiIe I was sleeping, therefore causing my pillow to fall as well. I would wake up often in the middle of the night to readjust the pillow situation.

Will 100% book again

I have never had a better rental home experience. The house had so many little touches to make the stay more comfortable. From laundry pods to a variety of games for rainy days, they thought of everything, there was even a custom info sheet on the fridge with local restaurants and their price ranges and contact info. The house is exactly as described and 10 of us slept comfortably. I would say bring an eye mask if you tend to like blackout curtains or super dark rooms at night, but that was an easy fix for us. The kitchen is fully stocked for cooking and coffee supplies were provided. Our trip was Destin focused and it was about 25min to the beach but be aware there is a toll ($4 each way) if you take the fastest route. Overall I liked the location, it was away from the chaos of Destin but still close. But best if all, Kayla was the easiest host to communicate with, she was kind, personable, and helpful with the entire process. I live about 3 hours away and travel to Destin regularly and I will absolutely stay here again! Thanks, Kayla!
