Notes from the host
Simmply Summer
Destin Beach House is located approximately 2 blocks from the gorgeous sugar sand public beach access points along Scenic 98, a short walk or even shorter golf cart ride! We are happy to offer our guests a six passenger golf cart at a competitive rate throughout the year, so please inquire when booking for seasonal pricing, regardless of your length of stay! A golf cart rental certainly makes trips to the beach easier, as well as a fun way to cruise around town!
Our home welcomes you with the ease of keyless entry, and parking for up to three vehicles directly in front of the home (sorry no parking for RV, Campers, or watercraft with our limited parking).
You'll walk directly into our small foyer area that opens to the dining area. Guests can enjoy comfortable seating for twelve at our long dining table. The open concept living area boasts floor to ceiling southern style French doors lining the walls for an abundance of natural light. Our comfortable sofas, large SmartTv equipped with YouTube TV for guests, and gas fireplace certainly set the tone for relaxation.
Our kitchen opens directly to the living and dining area with a great open aire feel. It offers a full suite of stainless appliances, ample counter space, dishes, cutlery, pots & pans, blender, a Hamilton Beach Flex Brew (standard coffee maker & Keurig!), crockpot, toaster, and bakeware. Your meals in will be a breeze!
Directly off the kitchen is a queen bedroom, complete with a dresser & smartTv. This room also has its own private entrance from the side of the home as well (with a few stairs to enter).
The garage can be accessed right off the kitchen area as well, and we know your kids (and kids at heart) will be enjoying making memories here. There's bonus accommodations for sleeping here with two sets of twin bunk beds with twin trundles that pull out beneath each bed. We've packed the game room with a SmartTv with YouTube TV, Golden Tee arcade game, ping pong table, cornhole boards, and even an additional fridge! Even a rainy day won't put a damper on your Destin vacation!
Heading back indoors, towards the staircase, the first floor bathroom offers a small standup shower, toilet & sink.
Upstairs, to the right, guests can find two bedrooms. Both rooms have vaulted ceilings, King sized beds, SmartTvs, and beautiful natural light from the large balcony doors. A hallway bathroom with a large standup shower & large vanity is located right at the end of the hall.
Going back to the staircase, to the left, in the hallway is a full sized washer and dryer. Straight from here is the 4th bedroom, with two twin bunk beds. A small closet & SmartTv complete this room.
The final bedroom is located just a little further down the hall. The spacious master boasts a King sized bed, SmartTv, Dresser, and a great balcony for that early morning coffee. The en-suite bathroom has his & hers sinks, toilet, a spacious shower, and a large garden tub. The bedroom also has a giant open closet, for luggage storage!
Our outdoor space includes a porch with dining for ten, and a propane grill on the back porch. The side porch overlooks our in-ground pool with a few chairs for relaxing poolside. The entire yard is fully fenced in as well.
Enjoy sitting around the fire pit, or shooting a game of putt putt golf right in the back yard. A sand pit even brings the "beach" to you, if you feel like avoiding the crowds for an afternoon!
We welcome our tiny travelers & have a few items that leave your packing a little lighter: a pack & play, high chair, & plastic dinnerware & cutlery included at the home for every reservation (no need to request these items).
We hope to see you soon to create memories with your friends & family at Destin Beach House!
