Newly Remodeled House with new Pool! Walk to beach on the Bay!

Attention Snow Birds! If you want to stay a month or more contact me through VRB0 for a great deal!
The Area:
The house is only 6 miles from the beautiful Emerald Coast beach on the Gulf and only 150 feet from a secluded beach in our neighborhood on the bay (see the pictures)! We are also only 1,200 feet from another public beach on the bay that has a free boat ramp for smaller boats! There are at least 5 other launches nearby for larger boats. Nearby are state parks, museum, 3 golf courses, the Gulfarium Marine park, Okaloosa pier, Okaloosa island beach access, Destin Harbor walk, putt-putt golf courses, go cart tracks, adventure park, and MANY fun things to do within 15-minute drive! If you adventure further, you can drive down scenic 30A to Panama City or to Navarre and Pensacola to the West. I recommend you check out the many Destin travel videos on YouTube. One in particular by Tampa Aerial Media is extremely detailed and even shows you the prices of the various activity and event options.

The Home:
The home is located in a quiet cul-de-sac with absolutely no through traffic. Great for your peace, relaxation and safety of your children. This home was recently totally remodeled and is FULLY furnished for your vacation! Large 2,100 square ft home with 3 bedrooms for 6 persons. Master has a large King bed. Second bedroom with a Queen and third bedroom with 2 twins. Two bathrooms. The master has a walk-in shower. Massive open area with kitchen, dining room and living room combined for plenty of room to spread out. Large washer and dryer in house.

The Pool and Backyard:
Just installed on 5 May 24 a brand new pool! The old pool was 12 feet deep and a hazard. This new one is only 4 1/2 ft at the deep end. Perfect and safe for the entire family. I do however, require all adult guests to sign safety and release waiver for them, their guests and their children. See rental agreement for details and restrictions. The outbuilding has its own bathroom with indoor and outdoor shower for your use when enjoying the pool. There are several chairs, tables and area to spread out by the pool or under cover by the back of the house. The charcoal grill is available for your use as well.

Need Extra Space? A separate mini-apartment!
If you have more than 6 guests, you can also rent the newly built cabana (mini apartment) by the pool for small additional fee. It can hold up to 3 additional persons with a Queen bed and pullout sofa. The cabana has its own in wall AC unit, refrigerator, sink, TV, microwave and coffee pot, with downstairs bathroom. If you book for more than 6 persons, I shall be sending you additional bill adjustment for use of the Cabana. If you do not wish you rent the Cabana, and you still have more than 6 guests, you will need to cancel the reservation due to the space limitations.

Other Amenities:
You get much more than any standard rental. We provide a complimentary bottle of wine, coffee and some drinks. The remodeled kitchen not only has all what you would expect but also includes extra amenities such as air fryer, rice cooker, and MANY cooking containers and utensils. Cupboard is full of pots, pans, dishes and everything you would have at home, plus more! You can borrow an extra fold-out table for your grilling. I also have probably dozen beach towels, a beach umbrella, floaties, inner tubes, several coolers and plenty of extras you can borrow for the pool or the beach!

We aim for your Satisfaction!
We live just across the street and available for your questions, concerns or perhaps to let you borrow something not in the house. Check my satisfaction rating on my other property at listing 2115124. I am one of very few with over 100 ratings and they are all 5-star! I aim to satisfy my guests.

Rental Agreement:
You MUST read the rental agreement! This is designed for your safety and ours. By making a reservation, you agree to the terms. In addition, when your party arrives, we will meet you and ALL adults in your party will be required to sign.

Make yourself comfortable in this air-conditioned vacation home, which features a private pool and a Smart TV. A kitchen is outfitted with a refrigerator, an oven, and a stovetop. Complimentary wireless internet access is available to keep you connected. Conveniences include a microwave and a coffee/tea maker.
Enjoy recreational amenities such as a water park and an outdoor pool.
Guests will find features like internet access and onsite parking.

This house was perfect for my family. The house is in a nice quiet neighborhood. Access to the bay is either a short walk or drive from the house. It is also close to the airport, which was handy for us. The property and amenities were clean and plentiful. The pool was a great addition. We were also close to places we love to visit when visiting my sister.

Awesome rental property!
Loved the house in a nice, quiet neighborhood! The bed I had in my room was more comfortable than my own - I slept great every night. Mike was very attentive to our needs and met us the first night to show us around, showed us the amenities and told us about the area in general. Although we didn’t use it as much as we normally do, the pool was really nice and very clean. Definitely a great place to stay for the week, and we’d come back again! Thanks Mike to you and your wife for a great week and sharing your home!

Fishing trip
We have a boat at two George’s marina and didn’t want to stay on the beach. This property is very convenient to get to the marina. We stayed in the main house and the pool house. Both were perfect for what we were doing. The main house has lots of space and even with seven people we never feel cramped. All the beds were very comfortable and the main house bathrooms were very nice. The pool house bathroom is not air conditioned so it gets a little stuffy in there when taking a shower. That really didn’t bother any of us but if that is a concern you could always go in one of the main house bathrooms to shower. Will definitely stay here again!

Overall a great experience. The house host was super friendly and helpful. The house was clean and we really enjoyed the privacy of being in a house as opposed to a large condo. Conveniently located close to the beach. Quiet neighborhood. We enjoyed our stay and we will be booking again when we get ready for another family beach trip!!
