The Neighborhood:
Destiny by the Sea is a unique, luxury community that boasts some of the Gulf Coast's most iconic vacation homes. Community amenities include immaculately landscaped ground, the clubhouse, community pool and hot tub, two private beach access points, and beach service rentals available in season. Favorite local restaurants such as The Crab Trap and Pompano Joe's are within walking distance.

Nearby Attractions:
Close by is Destin Commons, a beautifully landscaped, pedestrian-friendly area and a great family venue where children will love to play in the interactive water fountains. A nautically/pirate-themed outdoor playground features a 1,750 square foot soft play area with various creatures from the sea, slides, and a treasure chest! Destin Commons also has a mini-train for the kids and features over 75 shops and restaurants, including Godiva Chocolates, AMC Movie Theaters, and Bass Pro Shop.

For the Active Vacationer:
Nearby are 6 miles of paved trails - perfect for walking or biking. Gorgeous and seemingly untouched, Henderson Beach State Park is not your average State Park. You can find something for everyone, from beach walks and bike trails to wooded hikes that highlight Florida's unique natural landscape.

Destin Information:
Known as the "World's Luckiest Fishing Village," Destin is home to the largest fishing charter fleet in all of Florida. These fishermen have to be on their game year-round, with Destin's seasonal fishing ranging from Red Snapper all Summer to shorter seasons for Cobia and Tarpon during their annual migrations.

The house was in a wonderful location. The layout was great for two families. The furniture is worn down and it could use come basic updates. The lower level has a mildew smell. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would come back to this neighborhood again.

I was very disappointed in this property. We knew we had a late check in (6pm) but what I didn’t know was you can’t even get in the neighborhood to use the pool or go to the beach before your check in. Check in at 6 pm and check out is 9 am so you are losing a full day. The condition of the house once we checked in was terrible. Three beds had dirty sheets (body hair and clearly not laundered), sand was throughout the house and in all showers. Hair in bathroom drawers and dresser drawers. Dishes were dirty and so were the pots and pans. The grill was dirty and rusty, recycling had not been emptied in the kitchen. Fire detectors started chirping also during our stay and the alarm panel chirped our whole stay. Ice maker on the refrigerator worked about every other day or so. The property manager will get back to you in a timely manner. They offered to send the cleaners back but we had already cleaned everything ourselves. After calling them with issues for the first 2 days we just decided to deal with everything else. We had friends staying in other houses in the neighborhood and they had zero issues. You can definitely find a nicer house for the same price in the same neighborhood. I would recommend getting a different house in this neighborhood.

We had issues with check in time which was late (6pm), however the property was not ready until 7.30pm because an issue withe cleaners. We found the house quite dirty. Dirty floors, carpet, room furniture, sheets, kitchen utensils etc. Very disappointing having to clean ourselves after a long car trip but contacted the property manager and they responded right away. House needs to be thoroughly clean and needs updates. Furniture is very worn out and dirty

we went to Destin for a family reunion. We were 11 adults and one dog. We had so much fun! The house was more than we expect! The location of it was 3 min walking to the beach. It also had bikes that we used them to go around the neighborhood. The communication with property manager was excellent! My cousin left her wallet at the house the day of the check out and they helped her to find it and also to send it to Dallas, Tx where she lives. Thank you! We highly recommended it

We loved the location and house and Ron was very nice who greeted us upon arrival. It was stocked well with plenty of towels and kitchen utensils. Just a couple of suggestions for the cleaning crew... it would be great if they steam mopped the floors as they were really dirty as seen on everyone’s socks. Under the master bedroom bed/ nightstands was really dirty and dusty. The mold in the vents (stairwell) and mold in the shower floor corners could be easily steamed and bleached away and possibly re-caulked.

My wife and I stayed at Life's a Beach for twelve nights with our two dogs, plus a couple of friends joined us for a few days. We love Destiny-by-the-Sea and have rented homes there on several occasions. We really enjoyed this particular property, and hope to stay here again in the future. The top floor master bedroom was spacious and luxurious, with a quiet balcony and elegant desk that came in handy for some unavoidable telework commitments. The bottom floor includes a 2-car garage, queen bedroom, and kids' bunk room with gaming chairs, and a Jack & Jill bathroom. The middle floor has a queen bedroom, full bathroom, powder room, large living area, dining area, kitchen with counter and stools, and a very large balcony with a gas grill. Tons of space that our small party hardly took advantage of! The house was very clean and well-stocked with towels and other items, and all of the appliances and thermostats worked great. We enjoyed the short stroll back and forth to the beach several times a day. We had some special requests that were accommodated by the owner and management company, and we received excellent customer service. I honestly can't think of anything that would have made our stay more enjoyable, it was really a perfect twelve days at Life's a Beach!

Property needs upgrades. Floors and furnishings were not clean. I am not sure if cleaners did not show up or what. Kitchen utensils, pans and pots are in poor condition, need replacement. Too many broken handles, malfunctioning appliances etc to even report. Most of them worked but barely. Overall it is an okay property not worth the price.

Great neighborhood. Very well kept gated community. Living area and dinning area very small. Make sure all of your questions prior to paying are answered in writing. Things that were wrong with the property were not addressed during the stay. Excuse was hard to get things scheduled during peak season. No one on site to talk with personally except security at gate and not always friendly. I could list a lot of negative things however my family and I (11) total did make the house work and enjoyed the time together. Neighborhood was very well maintained just lots of miscommunication on phone call prior to booking.

What we loved about this property: that is was dog friendly, in a gated community, close walk to the beach, top floor suite couldn’t hear activity on 1st & 2nd floors. There were 5 bikes, scooter, some beach chairs and wagons in the garage. What we thought could use improvement: The property could benefit from a deep cleaning, communication-too many different people, Property Management to manage the property better - inspecting property after cleaning to make sure property is ready for next guest - are pool wrist bands, garage remote there? Are dishes clean and enough per occupancy? Do sinks drain, do light bulbs need to be replaced. We checked in on Sat and didn’t get pool wristbands until Monday afternoon - apparently previous guest took. The 1st floor side entrance light wasn’t working - the entrance has no railing and it is a hazard in the dark - someone could fall. We were unable to change the bulb ourselves as we needed a tool to remove the globe over the bulb - no tools at the home - repeatedly asked for it to be fixed while there but wasn’t. Will email more details of things we noticed or experienced.

Overall we enjoyed our stay at Life’s a Beach. The beach is only about a couple minute walk, the neighborhood felt safe, and the staff at the gate were very kind. The pool is very nice and clean. Don’t forget your bracelets, some people did and it’s really an inconvenience for the staff to have to be rude because you didn’t follow the rules. Now, for the negative and hopefully constructive feedback. When we arrived: the house was not clean. It was certainly not clean enough to justify a huge cleaning charge like we had. There is dust under and behind all the furniture. There was a load of clothes in the dryer that we had to take care of. The floors had not been swept and mopped. The microwave doesn’t work. The refrigerator and stove didn’t work. The grill was gross and there were dirty tools left. There are no cleaning supplies. I reached out to the management company. They informed me it would be within 48 hours and I told them that wasn’t acceptable due to us having 9 of us and we have to be able to cook. They sent their maintenance team and brought a new grill. They were able to get the stove to work. The microwave is now on order. The ice machine has to be started when you get there by clicking the arm down. The carpets are in a desperate need of someone to take the time to clean them. Furniture is worn but that’s to be expected in a rental These things were inconvenient but we made the best of it. Not worth the amount of money we spent on the cleaning for sure.

The neighborhood was beautiful and quiet, with a great community pool and private beach access. However the listing failed to mention that you cannot rent a golf cart due to association banning rental gulf carts. Only owners that have gulf carts at property already are allowed which was very frustrating to find out after we book since we planned on using the golf cart to haul all our stuff to the public beach everyday because the private beach you are not allow to even put up an umbrella of your own. They all have to be rented which is again very frustrating to spend all this money on a house with a private beach we couldn't really use unless we wanted to spend even more money every day on a small nearly useless umbrella for our size family of 6. The cleanliness left much to be desired, sand everywhere when we first arrived. I understand its a beach house but literally me and my other family members just swept and vacuumed the floors and wouldn't you know it we didn't feel like we were walking on the beach anymore. Our feet where also black from walking around in the house there is no way they clean the floors. There were sticky pieces of candy on our bathroom floor and in kids bedroom popcorn and food pieces everywhere. Once I brought all these issues to there attention they refunded our cleaning fee at least but that is not how you want to start your vacation by cleaning for three hours to make yourself feel comfortable especially since our check in time wasn't until 6pm due to "COVID CLEANING" yeah right there wasn't even basic cleaning let alone additional covid cleaning done. Overall the location was great and it was a nice neighborhood but probably wouldn't stay in this house again since no gulf cart included, and cleanliness of the house.

Check in process was seamless and communication through out our stay was top notch. Kitchen was stocked with everything you could possibly need and refrigerator water and ice dispenser we’re in good working condition (at the beach this is very important). Furniture in this unit is high quality. Cleanliness was than ideal and the lower level was musty. that is the only reason I didn’t give 5 stars.

The property and gated community was amazing. The house was stocked with basic supplies and ready to relax. We enjoyed the clean and less crowded private beach. Ramped access to the beach would be nice to take all the extra things with kids.

This house is in a great location and is awesome for families with young kids. We traveled to Destin with our neighbors and collectively had six kids under age 10. The bottom floor with the bunkbed room was their favorite part of the trip. It also gave adults some time upstairs to enjoy company without kids constantly begging for snacks!

Amazing location! Loved the 1 minute walk to the private beach which was the cleanest beach we’ve experienced so far! The house is decorated super cute so you feel right at home. We needed toilet paper which we couldn’t find in the house (thankfully, we made it til the last day). All in all, a really great experience!

The location of the property was fantastic! There is private beach access just a block away. Secure and gated community with one heated pool and Jacuzzi tub. The only negative comment is the check out time, which was nine and the check-in time wasn’t until six, though I understand there are more thorough cleaning procedures going on because of Covid. Fortunately we were able to get in prior to 6 PM but that is a very early check out and late check-in time. In addition the “guest preparation fee“ which is the basically the cleaning fee, was almost $700. That is extremely high compared to other properties in the area I inquired, but I would still definitely rent again.

Great property with plenty of room for our 8 guests. Home was clean and check-in was very easy. Great location for the Destin area. We loved the private beach access and enjoyed the great sunsets there. Only complaint was the community pool was not heated. It was clearly stated that was the case, but given that many homes in the community participate in vacation rentals, consideration should be made so you can enjoy all areas of the property.
