Nice property & neighborhood
Property needs updating and painting. No access to the garage was annoying. Be prepared to walk stairs. Nice house though, the private beach and gated neighborhood make it

Great stay
Property was great and immaculate, however, could improve on kitchen supplies like coffee, sugar and cream, and salt and pepper. Also, no beach towel provided for a beach property. A few board games for entertainment would be nice too.

We had a good stay at this property. The property is located in a very exclusive area, with direct access to a private beach. The house is out 4/5 minutes walk from the beach. We had several age groups in our party, including our parents. The bedrooms downstairs were good for them, however, they had to climb a flight of stairs to get to the second floor kitchen/dining. We had a plumbing issue which was resolved promptly. The customer service/support was prompt. Overall, I would recommend this property for stay especially when you have more than 10 people in the group.

We had an amazing stay! The property was beautiful and very accommodating for our group. The proximity to the pool and beach was perfect. The only maintenance issue we had was that the locks did not work on the jack and jill bathroom doors. Overall, would highly recommend this stay and will likely stay again in the future. Customer service and the property manager was also amazing.

Only complaint was having to call customer service for the lock box code to get into the house. But they got us straightened out! Very apologetic and helpful customer service representative. Great location. Beautiful house. Quiet neighborhood. Two minutes from private beach access. Will stay again.

Amazing stay
We traveled to Destin to celebrate our Mom’s birthday. There was more than enough room for four adults and four kids. We enjoyed walking to the beach everyday and the kids loved being a few feet away from the pool. Any issues we had were resolved quickly. Plenty of beach equipment so don’t worry about packing floats, chairs, or buckets and shovels. Would love to stay again

A few considerations for future guests
We absolutely LOVE this neighborhood and vacation here every summer! There was definitely noise from the Main Street in the back bedrooms of the home. Bring sound machines :) ScenicStays30A was super responsive and easy to work with, but our biggest concern was the grease trap in the grill. There was grease from the grill everywhere underneath of it, which is a huge safety hazard. (My husband cleaned the grease trap & the mat!) Not something we had hoped to do on vacation but for the safety of our family and future guests, we have notified the property management company about it. The ice maker was full of mold, so we bought ice. The layout of the house was amazing for two families with children!

Perfect stay
We had the most wonderful stay in Destiny by the Sea. The house was comfortable, spacious and accommodating. The kitchen had everything we needed, the grill was brand new. There were plenty of beach toys and accessories in the garage. We had everything we needed right there. The beach was beautiful and chair service was perfect. Highly recommend.

Beach is our happy place!
We have stayed in this neighborhood for years, many times but never during the middle of July. We will never come during that time. Too many teenage boys, too many bikes on y The streets and sidewalks and in the pool. It was just a different experience than before. I guess it was baseball nationals but it was a different environment and will arrange coming earlier next time! The house was perfect though, and the convince of the beach just too many bikes, too many boys and too many golf carts! It’s dangerous driving through neighborhood,, afraid u could hit a kid on a bike or in a golf cart!

Overall
The check in process was very quick and easy. There was a nice supply of essential items for the first few days. The cleanliness was a problem. There was sand still in the sheets of the beds. One bedroom had sand in the sheets and at the bottom of the bed had a place where dirty feet were there we had to wash all the sheets upon our arrival, during a pandemic this is concerning. We had issues with the ice maker and the grill the response time to fix was fantastic. The house is dated for the price floor tiles were broken but we did enjoy the location
