We enjoyed the house. Vary spacious and accommodating to what we were looking for. With the carts easy access to the beach.
Our stay was amazing! We had 15 people total- 7 of which were children. The home itself had more space than expected and everyone was surprised at area of individual space/rooms/beds. However the best part was that there was large areas where we all could gather and spend time together. The house was located in a cul de sac on a quiet street. It was not far from the beach or from our favorite restaurant. The golf carts were great and provided a faster/easier/more fun way to get around.

Beautiful home that my entire family enjoyed. Very clean and well stocked. Two golf carts allowed for easy beach access. Bedding was comfortable. Pool was clean and the kids loved it.

We loved having our family in this home. Great location, great neighborhood, we liked the golf carts included and bikes. The only negative I would say is the home had some things that needed fixing. -the grill only worked on one side and took forever to grill for everyone-the fridge and freezer drawers were very difficult to roll in and out - the fridge in laundry room leaked - the mattress on the pull out sofa in master bedroom was horribly thinThose are easy fixes and would make it even better. Minor stuff but great space and it was good having the pool toys and beach supplies there. It would help to add to the listing what the house includes so guests know what they do and don’t need to bring. We would absolutely stay here again! Loved it!

Overall I would describe our stay as pleasant. Its a nice rental and they provide ample items for the beach as well as two golf carts. The kids also loved the ping pong table. The only complaint was that the pool is on the small side and is alot smaller than it appears in the pictures. Besides that its a lovely property with plenty of space and is in a good area. The rental company was also super responsive to any issues.

Reviewer Comments:
My wife tripped over an improperly placed raised paver stone around the pool and sprained her wrist, multiple abrasions on knees, hands and face and caused a slight concussion with a black eye and pain around her orbital socket that has lasted for 3 weeks so far. The swimming pool is deceivingly small and turned our white swim suits and t-shirts green and 3 ladies in our family's blonde hair green. Many of the kitchen accessories were dirty and had to be washed before initial use. The neighborhood, golf carts and proximity to the beach are very nice. Jamie at Glass Casa was very nice to work with through the issues, but evidently the owners don't believe my wife's pain, due to their property negligence is worth even a partial refund...very sad for my wife!!!

This was our second year at Pearl of Destiny and it is a perfect place for our family. The house is just what we wanted with plenty of space and everything we were looking for. The location to the beach and with the pool was perfect for everyone especially our little ones. The only note I would have for the owners is the second refrigerator for the second year in a row was not working well filling with water each day. Guests who look to enjoy this level of rental would expect everything to be working.That being said it is a lovely house with everything one is looking for. I would highly recommend this location to anyone.

Other than parking problems with security and some issues with the house, the stay was pleasant and relaxing. The house is located close to the beach and amenities. Although small, the pool was nice and refreshing.
This house is very spacious and beautiful! Located in a quiet cul de sac in a beautiful neighborhood! Just me, my husband and our two dogs stayed, and it was perfect! The only recommendation would be to increase the heat of the pool; it was a bit chilly!
Great house that allowed for multiple families to come together in living room kitchen and also have own space. Two golf carts made getting to beach easy . No better beach than Destin!
This was easy check in and we got early check in. The house is beautiful . There are a few small things that need fixed but overall wonderful stay. The beds were comfortable and it was very clean . The 2 golf carts were such a bonus we got a lot of use out of them. The neighborhood was beautiful . The pool was nice and the space was perfect for our family of 8. We brought my grandpa on his 90th birthday. Would deff stay again
Everything was fantastic, the rental company was very helpful and quick to respond to any need. We will definitely be staying with them in the future. We were in the middle of a hurricane and they were right there with us! We can’t thank them enough for a great vacation
The house was wonderful and roomy for our very large group, we had room to spread out and not be on top of each other. Our only disappointment is that the pool wasn’t clean or clear.
Destin couldn’t get any better. Great place to be on vacation.
Its was Clean, big, lots of amenities. Walking distance to the beach, restaurants, shops. The clubhouse pool was beautiful. The private pool was so convenient. So much space for everything. Comfortable and relaxing, would definately book again!
Our family vacation in Destin East was a huge hit with the entire family! Our proximity to the beach, the spacious living areas and built in pool were fabulous! We were slightly disappointed in the “tired” conditions in the property, not all of appliances worked properly and furniture was in less than ideal condition.
The property was very spacious. Easily accommodated 11 adults and 1 one child. Enjoyed the private pool. The six and four passenger golf cart made it extremely easy to get to the beach. I would definitely return.
Great indoor and outdoor spaces, private, quite. Only suggestion, with capacity for occupancy would be beneficial to have some additional cookware, including a few different size pans, griddle for breakfast, etc

Destin Palms was very helpful before and during our stay. They were quick to get back and if there were any repairs they were efficient on getting them fixed.
The property was just as pictured (except the size of the pool is a bit tinier than it looks) Very clean.
There was plenty of room for all eleven of us! Plenty of sleeping space. And plenty of room to get to yourself when needed.
The kitchen could use a bit of updating on items, but it was still great!
We enjoyed our week, just wished we had been able to book longer!

The house was beautiful and in a great location. Great amenities however we felt constantly targeted by an employee. The community was not friendly to vacationers. I made a complaint but did not receive a response.
