Very Clean Property with a beautifully landscaped private yard. Having such lush full grown trees and landscaping gave it alot of privacy in a rental vacation neighborhood. So close-2 blocks from the most beautiful white sandy beach. Beds were very comfortable and the house was very well stocked. The kitchen was well stocked with high quality items for a person who likes to cook. The management staff was available right away when we needed something or had a question. The only thing I was disappointed in was that the pool was very small, more like an oversized hot tub. This is common in this area. Our family had the BEST time at this property and with the area it was located.

Excellent Vacation Home

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a family vacation and stayed here. The location was wonderful, a short walk (or cart drive) to the beach. We enjoyed the chairs and umbrella set up for us. The house was spacious and had everything we needed. It was nice to have our own pool and enough room for all of us. We had no issues and would stay here again.

We loved our stay at this home! Check-in and communication was very easy. The home had everything we could want and more. We loved the spaciousness, location, and layout. The porches were incredible (especially during storms) with rocking chairs and a porch swing. The property offered a great amount of privacy thanks to strategic landscaping that also kept temperatures enjoyable even with a 110 heat index. We would absolutely stay here again! Thank you so much for a wonderful week in Destin!

Perfect for larger families!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The main house and apartment were very clean and well supplied. Even the porches were well maintained and very clean. Plenty of space outside to sit and relax in the shade and let the dogs run and play. Plenty of rooms to accommodate several families. Beds were comfy! Pool was clean. Pool is small, but we still had a good time in it! The only downside is unless you’re super early, you won’t find a park at the designated beach access. It’s always full, and on the 4th, we couldn’t find a place to set up a tent bc space is very limited so we had to hang by the pool.

Family vacation

The home is nice, the living space is small for the amount this home can accommodate. The kitchen needs stocked with more silverware to accommodate a large crowd. The skillets could use a replacement. I would recommend having some additional chairs on porch that are appropriate for senior citizens. We did enjoy the swing in the mornings and evenings. Thank you for sharing your home, it is in a quiet neighborhood.

Family Vacation

Overall we loved the home, location, and the communication. I do wish that things in the kitchen could be left for others to enjoy. Seasoning, non parishable food items especially, etc. We were able to disperse to neighbors, just hard to throwing a lot of things away because you’re flying! I do highly recommend and we will look into this rental in the future.

Family Time

The best part of this vacation was down time with the family. We enjoyed the beach during the days and game night in the evening. There was 14 of us and there was plenty of room. The little ones loved the pool in the evenings. I loved the double wrap around deck. I was impressed at how well the kitchen had everything we needed from utensils to pots and pans The beds were very comfortable. I woke up feeling refreshed every morning. The only thing that I would add to this stay would be rugs in front of the doors coming from outside to keep the floors from getting messy. We will definitely be back !!

Destin Vacation House

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Property is the best house by far in Destin. Location only about a block walk to the beach. Three story hose has plenty of room for families. Fenced in yard for those traveling with their fur babies. Nice private pool with a golf cart to make trips to the beach easy. We stayed in master bedroom on main floor, with my only complaint there was no dresser for your clothes, just a small closet. Nightstands were packed full of old computer printers, modems, board games and general junk, so no space for additional storage in either of those. Overall though, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend this house for the amenities offered and especially for families traveling with pets. Beautiful house with great location!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall the house was exactly what we were looking for , space and closeness to the beach. However when paying 8k for a place to stay you do expect it to be clean. No paint peeling on the ceilings. No rusted floor vents. Shower heads to be working completely. Bath tubs you can stand on without the fear of getting cut. Floors and walls dirty. A comfortable bed. The entire house smelling of mold and mildew and the vents especially in the in law suit having mold pouring out of them. The carpet looked filthy. The golf cart charged was barely hanging on it was melted to the extension cord and frayed. We went and bought a new charger and extension cord. And the entire house just seemed very outdated. This is our fourth year to Destin and was definitely disappointed in the conditions of the house.

Close to the beach, shopping, grocery stores, etc. We would definitely stay in this home again. Dealing with Frangista Beach Properties was wonderful. They communicated with us about the trash pickups, send us reminders about various things and when we had a small issue, we were able to talk to them to solve the issue.
