This was our first time to Destin, 1st VRBO and 1st family vacation with our grandsons. The home and location was perfect for 7 adults and 2 little boys. Sara and Carlos were very accommodating and always responded to us immediately. We loved the lake view, quiet area and short walk to the beach. We can’t wait to return!

Great location/Pool/Golf Cart
Perfect location, golf cart, pool, and beautiful views! House had several issues. Host did their best to address most urgent bathroom issues and response was quick-but we mostly dealt with the rest rather than complaining/taking valuable beach time. The two steps down to living room, curved staircase (varying width of steps), and decor (small rocks on the floor) are not kid friendly.

Les pieds dans l'eau de la Ria d'Etel, à 20 minutes d'Auray et de Carnac, 30 minutes de Lorient et de Vannes, 45 minutes de Quiberon, cette location est idéalement placée pour visiter le Morbihan. Les amateurs de pêche à pied seront également ravis. Accueil sympathique dans cette grande maison, le jardin se prête aux jeux d'été, et les repas au bord de l'eau sont plus qu'appréciés !

This beautiful home is so centrally located to shops, restaurants and the beach. It is also very, very spacious. We will be coming back again. It was a wonderful week! Thank you Carlos and Sara!

Overall nice place! Few things were not completed before we arrived, which was a little frustrating, but the management company was very timely to get them fixed. Young man apologized that they were not taken care of before we arrived. A few more amenities could be provided for two weeks stay. Some construction going on next door and across the pond, but no fault of rental.Neighborhood is great, very close to the beach, few close by restaurants you can walk too. I would recommend.

First time to Destin and we will be back! The house was wonderful but even better was Sara! So responsive to everything we needed. The house is more spacious than si anticipated. We had 9 people and had plenty of room. Beach is right outside the neighborhood so not much to walk however you may want to drive if your taking a lot of kids suff. Overall we will be back! Perfect house for what we like to do!

Great house. great location. Great time!
This vacation was so nice. The latest reviews had us worried about coming but we had a magnificent time. Yes there is construction next door but you’re at the beach. The view was awesome. House was great. Come with a golf cart. The management company has changed so look for correspondence from Travel Life Vacations. That isn’t stated well in the current listing and cause some concern when I wasn’t hearing from the booking prior to arriving. But they are wonderful and very responsive. We will be back to this house and Destin. There was something for everyone.
