Aqua Vida is located about 2 miles from the Silver Sands Outlet Centers and is convenient to both the action in Destin and Grand Boulevard Towne Center with incredible eateries, upscale shopping and a park with pop up fountains at its center.
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. For the younger guests, 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. Destin Commons features over 75 shops and restaurants, including Godiva Chocolates, AMC Movie Theaters and Bass Pro Shop.
If you are near Miramar Beach, the snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Dolphin Reef, deployed in 2017. Located just 685 feet straight out from the Miramar Regional Public Beach access (by Pompano Joe's), it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Dolphin Reef is at a depth of 12-20 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

We loved our stay!! It was clean, fully stocked with supplies, and in a great location! An absolutely beautiful home!! We will for sure be coming back!
The house was perfect just as described in the listing. The walk to the beach was about 10 minutes which was nice. They provided several extra chairs and a wagon for your beach items. Our group of seven visit each year for Fall Break and this house did not disappoint. I would definitely stay here again!
Great location!
Could use more basic necessities like trash bags, toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap. Other than that, great location, great for large groups.
Overall loved the gated community. Peaceful walks around the ponds and down to the beach. The included beach service was such a bonus! The house has wonderful updates from pictures shown including screened porch and open deck, window shades and storm shutters. Great communication as needed.
First Impression was Clean and Tidy. The House is Perfect for Anyone, Family's or Couples. 4 Large Bedrooms, Each With Their Own Bathroom. The Kitchen, Dining, and Living Room Are Setup Perfectly. Plenty of Space. Equipped With Beach Accessories Was Also a Plus. We Had a Great Time, We Will Be Back, And We Would Recommend Staying Here.
The property exceeded our expectations. Everything was clean and kitchen was fully equipped. The house was in a great location. It was less than a mile away from the beach, and close to restaurants, grocery stores, and shopping centers. Overall, the house was very family and child friendly. We will definitely be booking again next year.
Beautiful home that was just right! It was fantastically clean- which was HUGE for us. The house was just as described on the listing. The beach was a bit of a hike, which we knew, but didn’t realize how far it truly was until walking it with all of our beach gear. Definitely a perk to have beach service!
We had a great time. We had unexpected death in the family and had already planned this trip prior to this. It was decided to go and go and so we did. We needed this. The home was beautiful and accommodating and we will definitely be back again. Thank you for sharing your home. It’s a home away from home. Thank you.
The Aqua Vida house has a modern kitchen. Dining area and table are spacious. We also enjoyed the covered porches. Bedrooms have their own bathrooms which is useful for families or two couples. Trees around the house create a nice setting.
Beach is a 10-12 minute walk. Wagon provided makes it easy to carry items. Community pool is also nice. A few shops and restaurants are 8-15 minutes walk, depending on store. Groceries are close driving. We loved the Aqua Vida house.
Everything was neat and new...almost too new. The dishwasher was never used and we found out that is was connected wrongly and almost caught fire with bad wires...LOL, but only thing I would add is televisions in each room. Other than that we will request the same home next year with hopefully those updates and a Golf Cart for travels.
1.) parking requirements are not logical 2.) management company/neighborhood “security detail…?” are not friendly 3.) Destin has become the vacation rental capitol….so keep that in mind
There are literally thousands of accommodation rentals…if not hundreds of thousands
My suggestion: visit another beach/area
Too much squeeze for the juice
Overall the house was as advertised. It was very clean which is a priority for us - so thank you. Please don’t let the following issues infer we didn’t like the house we did! It is beautiful, close walk to beach. It is a very nice home!
Two issues: please advise that the steps are quite steep. We had a disabled person and the stairs were difficult to manage. Even the kids complained about the steepness. Next every door in the house needs oiled. You could not open a door at night without waking others! This is easily fixed.
Thank you to RealJoy for being available with answers! Staff knowledgeable and very courteous!
Thank you to the owner of this beautiful home for providing a place for our family to enjoy.
Great place. Clean. Propane grill worked well.
Cooked food with stocked kitchen. Garage could fit a car. Some beach stuff in the garage. Very nice place. Lots of towels.
We absolutely loved staying at this house! They supplied a wagon and beach toys, chairs etc for the kids to enjoy. Great neighborhood and in walking distance to the beach. There are TVs in all bedrooms and the house was extremely clean! We will be staying here again!
