Perfect for us!

We had a group of 13 and the space was more than enough for us. Host response time for questions and requests were quick. House was clean with several beach towels for use. The only confusing part was identifying which amenities or descriptions were relevant to our rental versus their other properties. Location was about a 5 min walk to the beach.

Spacious house

We were a party of 20. The house was very spacious and there was plenty of room for all of us. The game room and bunk beds were great for all the kids.The beach was a 2min walk and the golf cart, which we called the Tesla, was used all the time. We'll definitely be coming back!

Great experience!

We had a great time during our stay in Destin! The carriage house was perfect for our teenage kids to have their own space. The dishwasher was not working when we got there so we contacted the house manager and there was a new dishwasher installed during our stay. Other than that, we had a great experience. We would love to see the backyard be an additional space. The kids brainstormed things like a mini putt putt course, Cornhole area or even fire pit. Would definitely stay again!

Destin Dreamers couldn't have done any better with their rental for us! My kids and grandkids were delighted from the pool to the golf cart. My mother and my husband's mother was in ah of their rooms as we were! Love homes with cottages the side for several families to be able to come together. Very enjoyable experience for all families thank you again. We are already looking for our place next year!

Family Vacation

We loved the location. The walk to the beach was super easy and there is also a golf cart if you don’t want to walk. The house was bigger in person than it appeared in the pictures. I loved that they provided beach towels and bath towels. The carriage house had its own washer and dryer in addition to the one in the main house which was really nice. I wish there was a way to have the upper level of the carriage house connected to the lower level with an interior set of stairs, this would allow families with smaller children to utilize the game room as a sleep area but we had plenty of beds and the kids enjoyed the game room during the day. Check in and check out was super easy. We would definitely stay here again.

Clean and Comfortable

The house was well kept, supplied and best of all clean. The golf cart was nice to have on hand. My only "complaint" in the listing is that the bunk/game room is not listed as basically a separate unit. We anticipated the smaller kids staying in that room, but if they needed anything in the middle of the night they would have had to come out through the pool area, through the gate up the stairs unlock a door to get to parents, but we made it work. If it was listed that way I missed it, my apologies. We had a great time!

Spring Break 2024

Overall it was a fantastic stay. Thank you for allowing us an earlier check in. We did have a very minor issue with the pool heater and someone was out quickly to fix and very polite. It was Spring Break and the noise was an issue, but we understand the environments around us. Roku remotes were out in almost all rooms. We did bring extra and did replace. We love to cook and one recommendation would be for 2 larger size sheet pans. Location to the beach was unbeatable and the use of the LMV/golf cart was an added bonus. We loved the stay!
