Reviewer Comments:
Everything was perfect. The Modern Beach team was 1st class and this house/location was exactly what we needed.
Beautiful home, fantastic location. Private beach access was worth everything. Having our own pool was the cherry on top. First time visiting the area, usually go further south down the gulf, we will definitely be back. Followed several facebook groups to get an understanding of shopping, restaurants and things to do. Very helpful. Thank you for sharing your home.
We spent a week at this home over Spring Break and had a wonderful time. The house was wonderful! Very clean and comfortable. It was just a short walk to the private beach for the community. There were many restaurants and shops close by, while Destin is only a 20 minute drive away. Our favorite feature by far was the pool and hot tub! They were both phenomenal!
Communicating with the host was a breeze. They were extremely responsive before, during, and after our stay. We highly recommend this property for anyone looking for a Florida panhandle vacation!

This home and the location was perfect! The pool was most definitely the best we have ever had in a rental property. The home was clean, beds were comfortable and the walk to the beach was easy! Neighborhood was safe and we even had the benefit of an ice cream truck that visited the neighborhood! Outdoor entertainment area was a big plus! Adults and kids in our party give this rental a 10 out of 10!
Everything was as described in ads except the heat for the pool was not yet available. Very clean and free of clutter. It was nice to have a few extra things that most rentals do not provide, like extra trash bags, a condiment cabinet stocked with basic products. And lots of beach/pool toys and chairs to use.
This is a beautiful home with a gorgeous pool with easy access to the private beach without having to cross a street to get there. The location is great because you are near shopping and restaurants, yet you feel miles away from it all once you pull into the small neighborhood. The front porch and the patio area under the house were a favorite of ours. Beautiful view of the ocean and the small park from the porch, and a beautiful view of the pool from the downstairs patio. The house is also beautifully decorated with lots of extra touches. Also, easy communication with Donna was excellent and appreciated. Thank you for a great stay!
We loved our stay at Old Florida Charm! The private beach and private pool were simply amazing. Our kids loved the put put area and the downstairs area by the pool was so nice to have, we ate many of our dinners outside. The outdoor shower was so nice to have after beach time. The private beach was amazing and never crowded. Took about 2 minutes to walk to the beach, was not far at all I honestly think its quicker than being in a busy condo waiting for an elevator to get downstairs. The neighborhood was so quiet and quaint and very close to shopping and restaurants. We felt very safe at this house. The property owners are top notch, never had rental management so in contact and friendly. 10/10 recommend.
We had a wonderful time staying here again this year. We loved the new landscaping in the yard and the addition of the new chairs by the pool. The only things we weren’t so excited about were the bedding and towels. They were the exact same ones as last year and are becoming a little worn. The house was clean and the kitchen was well stocked. We appreciated the spices for sure! I would love to see the golf cart included with the rental. The price was too high for a cart that only has access to the neighborhood. Other than those small things, we love the house and will probably be back next year.

The location with private pool and uncrowded beach cant be beat! The home was perfect for what we needed. It could have been a little cleaner upon arrival, we found beard trimmings on the counter in the hall bathroom and hair in the primary on suite shower. I would stay here again and would highly recommend!

They really need to update the photos on this place. It was 100x better than current pictures. The pool and outdoor space will keep us coming back! Modern Beach staff was very communicative. All around a first class experience.
This property is clean, fully furnished, has comfortable beds, has seating on the porch with a partial view of the ocean, and is a very short walking distance to the beach. I would stay here again and highly recommend it.
The house and location were perfect! The house was very clean. The kitchen had everything we needed. It is about a 5 minute walk to a private beach that was not crowded. The provided beach chairs were perfect for the location and could be worn as a backpack with storage pockets for our things. Our kids loved the pool and the putting green. We would definitely stay here again!
We loved our stay this week. The property was beautiful, great views with a short walk to beach, no shoes required. Plenty of beach toys, chairs, boards, etc. Enjoyed relaxing, cooking/grilling and evening beach strolls.
The property was extremely close to the private beach access. Plenty of parking. The kitchen was huge and well stocked. Even had sharp knives which is a rarity in a rental house. Bedrooms and bathrooms were excellent as well
The house was wonderful! It was perfect for our family and our stay. We have always stayed in condos and after this vacation we may never stay anywhere but a house! Kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to cook. The walk to the beach was really short. House was clean and decorated very well. Will definitely try to book this house again on future trips!
Our Kansas crew enjoyed our stay in Florida.
The property was perfect for our family of 5 with room to spare. It was just a quick 3 minute walk to the beach and the outdoor shower was perfect after returning from the beach.
