This house I thought was even prettier than in the photos. The stone throughout the home was beautiful, all of the bedrooms were gorgeous, and the outside pool area was very nice. I would stay here again. The management company was fantastic to work with and very responsive on some work requests we submitted. The kitchen is well stocked, and the towels and linens were great as well.

Great for families
Our family enjoyed the house and location. It was very accommodating for the 9 of us. The proximity to the beach and having private beach access was a main attraction for us. We also appreciated the pool since it was unseasonably cold during our trip and having the heated pool made it more enjoyable for the kids. We would book again just during a warmer season.

We stayed a couple houses down earlier this year & just had to stay in the same area again! The walk to the beach is so close & convenient with littles. Having the outdoor pool/spa was a bonus. The outdoor kitchen was perfect for cooking seafood!! Plenty of room for all of us.

Incredible!
We had an incredible stay at this beach house! The location was perfect—just steps from the beach and close to everything we needed, including great restaurants and local attractions. The house had plenty of space for our large group, and the layout worked really well for both adults and kids. One of the highlights was the private pool—it was the perfect size for the little ones to splash around and play safely, which made the trip even more enjoyable. The home was clean, well-equipped, and the host was responsive and easy to communicate with. Highly recommend for families or groups looking for a fun and relaxing beach getaway!

My family and I had an amazing stay at this property! The location was AMAZING!! Close to everything and literally across from the beach. It would have been even better if the weather had been sunny! But we made the best of it. I think there was a little confusion on the sleeper sofas as we didn’t find one of them in the home however there were still plenty of beds for everyone to sleep comfortably! Communication with the host was top tier! I’d certainly stay here again and recommend it to others staying in the area!

Spring Break 2024
This beach house was beautiful, exactly as listed! The location was perfect, we never drove more than 10 minutes to get anywhere and the beach was literally a few steps away! There was 10 of us and we all slept comfortably, each couple having a room to themselves! The only con was the Wi-Fi, my daughter didn’t get to watch her favorite YouTube channel each morning. Other than that, this house was perfection!

Ideal multi-family location
We had 3 families- 3 couples and 7 kids. There was ample room for everyone. The beach was a very short walk across the private community street. When the kids were tired of the beach, they swam at the pool and played tons of air hockey at the house. We went to the nearby water park one day. There were numerous other nearby attractions that we considered visiting but everyone had so much fun at the house, we spent most of the time there. Property management promptly sent assistance when we had a little trouble figuring out the elevator (it came in handy for luggage and groceries) and were quick to handle a wasp nest on the balcony. Overall, it was a really great vacation.

Great family vacation
The house was great. The location was perfect. The beach was amazing and just a few steps away. We had 6 adults and 7 children ages 6 to 14. There was plenty of room. The few notes. The area with the bunkbeds is actually in a small area immediately off the garage. No big deal but not a room so be aware. There are no beach towels so we had to buy some and leave them there. Minor things that didnt impact our time but just FYI. The management was responsive to any calls we made . Lots of activities and restaurants close by. I would absolutely come again.

Excellent
Wonderful location and property. My only complaint would be that the hot tub is actually a “spillover spa.” So it didn’t get hot, only warm. Management was quick to respond to us regarding this matter though. Overall, it was a pleasant stay for a large family.

Great experience!
The property was described perfectly in the listing. Our party consisted of 7 adults, no kids. There was plenty of room for several more people to sleep comfortably. The beach is just steps away. We will be renting this property again in the future.

We had a family of 8 adults and 2 children stay a week. It was awesome and we will definitely go back. Only suggestion is there should be detailed instructions on the heated pool and hot tub. We struggled to understand how to operate them. Overall a wonderful experience!

Absolutely beautiful house!
Beach access is 15 steps away, once we got the new heater for the pool amd spa it was amazing! We had 8 kids and 5 adults amd it was plenty room for everyone. The elevator was such a plus to get everything to and from third floor!:) management definitely take pride in there work amd they really made sure to accommodate amd make us happy. Really appreciated since we spend so much money on vacays out here. We will definitely be renting again from compass resorts.

Loved how close this property was to the beach and how many people it could accommodate. The pool was also a great feature with the outdoor bar! The only thing we did not like was we found a few cockroaches throughout the house, but besides that everything was pretty clean.

Family Vacation
This property was perfect for our family! On the 2nd day we were there, we called the property manager to tell them that the internet had stopped working. They sent someone out right away. To our embarrassment, when they arrived they found out the problem was only that one of our young children had unplugged it! Looking forward to renting this same house again next year!

Our group of 11 adults thoroughly enjoyed our time in Destin at this property. The home had nearly everything you could desire, and was well appointed. A short walk to the beach allowed for casual strolls and gorgeous views of the sunsets. I look forward to returning some day.

Grains of salt
Beautiful home. Needs some attention. Dont be fooled by kids bedroom area, it is the mudroom off the garage. Loved elevator. Nothing except small fridge worked on outdoor stuff, including grill. And got lots of pushback about calling about grill. Love beach access, although garbage cans need wheels.

Spent 4 days for my dads 80th birthday here. Plenty of space. Hot tub was fantastic. The property manager was great to work. The best asset to this amazing home was the elevator. Great for my dad and made moving food, coolers and baggage that much easier. Would stay here again no doubt.

My family members really enjoyed our stay. Thanks for accommadating our arrival and departure times.
As I stated, we really enjoyed our stay. However, following are a few little hiccups experienced: We could not get the outside burner between the sink and stove to heat our fryer more than 300 degrees, which was too low for frying; There were a number of ants patrolling the kitchen counter near the the coffee pot/wet bar areas; The front door bell did not work; lighting in kitchen/living room area was poor for approximately half of the group, who are in their 70s; and there was a leak underneath the face bowl nearest the jacuzzi in the master bedroom/third floor; and, we had difficulty finding be bedding for the sofas near the kitchen. The elevator was a hit, in particular, for the over 70 year-olds. Over all, we enjoyed and would say with you again.

We had a wonderful stay at this house. It was in a perfect spot to walk to the beach and it had all the amenities that our kids could ask for if they just wanted a break from the sand! It was perfect for the 12 of us and could possibly accommodate a few more if needed. We will definitely use this house again in the future:)

I would highly recommend staying here
I would not say it sleeps 25. The correct # would be 14. Adult couples would account for 10, 2 in each of the 5 bedrooms. The bunk room is right off the garage and it is really not a room. It is perfect for kids though. I would say 4 should sleep there. You could have them share the bottom bunk and make it 6. That would require kids sleeping together. We had 5 couples and 2 kids. It worked out perfect. 2 more kids would be fine in my opinion. Everything was excellent. Nothing to complain about. The elevator is a little tricky, so don't count on it. It works fine, just needs to be done correctly and that takes everyone knowing what to do. If one doesn't, it'll stay on a floor and not move. It is decorated great. Kitchen is awesome. Outside kitchen is awesome! Pool is perfect. Watching TV in the jacuzzi is cool. Have fun on your stay!
Blake T. - Posted: 8/25/2016
We are glad these guests enjoyed the home and found everything was excellent. We sincerely appreciate getting positive and constructive feedback from our guests as we want our guests to have a great experience. We get lots of good comments on the TV the pool deck, we think it's pretty cool, too. We will take a look at the elevator to make sure everything is working as it should be and see if we can do anything to make it less tricky. On the # sleeps, the max is listed as 22, don’t forget about the three Queen size sleeper sofas, one on the first floor and two on the second. We recognize not all adults are going to want to sleep on a bunk or sleeper sofa, but if you have a large group, the home can accommodate.

We loved having all the space for our large family.
I was relieved to find the property as lovely in person as it is in photos. I have stayed in some places that definitely were not! We loved having all the space for our large family. We were able to cook meals and share them around that large dining table. I could have done so many fun things for our family without ever leaving the house had we been staying longer (and if the weather had been a bit more cooperative!) I loved all of the outdoor seating areas and outdoor kitchen! Overall we did enjoy our stay and hope to come back!

Great family vacationThe house was great. The location was perfect. The beach was amazing and just a few steps away. We had 6 adults and 7 children ages 6 to 14. There was plenty of room. The few notes. The area with the bunkbeds is actually in a small area immediately off the garage. No big deal but not a room so be aware. There are no beach towels so we had to buy some and leave them there. Minor things that didnt impact our time but just FYI. The management was responsive to any calls we made . Lots of activities and restaurants close by. I would absolutely come again.

Castle By the Sea
My family recently stayed at Castle By The Sea, a beautiful home in the Dunes of Destin complex. The house was incredible, and it was only a three minute walk to the beach. This was a very unique home, with a bathroom for each bedroom, plenty of room to hang out together or have your own space. The staff at Compass Resorts were friendly, caring, considerate and ready to help with any questions or concerns we had. We had a wonderful time, and can't wait to go back. Our family highly recommends Compass Resorts, and this awesome home.
