There is a full bath downstairs that features a sink, toilet, and a multi jet body spray shower. The 10ft Sile stone custom kitchen island is the first thing you will notice though.

The living room features a large screen TV, Streaming only on all TV's, fireplace, custom recessed lighting, seating for everyone, and high-end full body porcelain Italian tile.

The first level of the outdoor space is a large, semi covered deck that has sectional outdoor seating and a gas grill, large patio umbrella, and seating for 8+. This then leads down to the second level that features an outdoor fireplace to cozy up in front of during those sometimes chilly nights on the beach and additional seating to keep everyone in your party comfortable. This then leads to the third and best level of the outdoor space. The last level is direct beach access with a white sand path leading to the emerald green water of the Gulf of Mexico, perfect outdoor oasis for you and your family.

Take the stairs to the upper level and you will find 2 bedrooms and 3 built in full twin size bunks. Both of the bedrooms feature 18" memory foam Queen sized beds and upgraded showers with rain shower head (double in the master) and full body spray jets.

This place is so amazing! I loved watching the sunset over the ocean every night. The beach and ocean are your back yard!

Great vacation spot

It was very clean, big spacious rooms, modern style, and great location. Many of the doors didn’t work properly, had a hard time with the shower and it never did really work properly. The grill did not have any Propane and the maintenance man said they would bring some and they never did.
- Posted: 8/21/2024

We absolutely loved this place. Modern kitchen, very spacious room, nice and clean. The views were incredible! I would definitely stay there again. A couple small issues we had were dealt with quickly.
- Posted: 8/21/2024

Only one very minor issue that was handled IMMEDIATELY- great place to stay!
- Posted: 8/10/2024

Amazing stay! No complaints!!
- Posted: 6/30/2024

This was our first time staying at the Klaus house and we usually rent big but this time we had to rent two houses and I think the place was great. They were so friendly and I loved how organized everything is. It helps maintain a clear space specially with small children. The beach access was so convenient. We grilled and we also did some s’more’s in the fire pit that’s outside. We had a great time there. I would recommend.

We had a pleasant stay at the property. The location offered a stunning view of the beautiful beach, and the place was well-maintained, with suitable space for parking.

We will absolutely rent this home again, it was easy and comfy enough. The price is perfect but keep in mind it’s likely set for the understanding the couch is an outdoor couch and dinner table is made for outdoor as well but none of this was an issue. Can’t wait to visit again!

Great location with beautiful view of the beach. Also has it’s own pathway right onto the beach. The home was clean and comfortable. They have cook wear if you decide to cook. The living room furniture is patio furniture but no complaints we expected that from the pictures. The built in bunk beds were a perfect. Would recommend this place to friends & family.

We had a great time .the location was nice and the property was great we loved the access to the beach
- Posted: 10/14/2023

We had an amazing time! My kids are 6&9 and this place was perfect for them! If you're looking to rent here, the deciding factor should be convenience vs luxury. We prefer convenience so Klaus was perfect! The bedrooms were spacious; we LOVED having 3 full bathrooms (which were clean!); bedrooms and linens were clean; being able to walk out the back door and onto the beach was priceless! My husband and boys were able to fish right off the shore; it was very private!
None of the following bothered me, but I wish I would have seen other reviews with this info. The back porch and back "yard" could use some fixing up. I liked the tile floor throughout but it's also on the stairs which could be hazardous. If you plan on cooking, bring your own cookware. The couch is outdoor furniture and looks and smells like it was used as such prior to it becoming the couch.
Overall loved our stay! I would definitely stay here again! It's not upscale, but the privacy was worth the price to us.

Fun location

Very clean and fun location...would highly recommend
- Posted: 3/15/2023

Superb daytime views and million dollar sunsets!

Overall it was excellent. The only complaints would be that the living room furniture needs to be changed out because it's outdoor patio furniture. Replace it with leather. The showers were cool. But they will leak on to the floor through the door if not careful. The water pressure at the sink needs to be checked. The front door needs adjusted to close better. Having said all that... Overall it has been the best place we have stayed at without breaking the bank! The outdoor patio and grill were very useful. We grilled and ate outside often. Beautiful sunsets! Wonderful access to the beach! Location was very close to the grocery store and Pier Park. Overall 9/10! We loved the place and location!

Fishing Getaway

Everything was great. We walked everywhere we went, which is what we wanted.
- Posted: 5/30/2022

Great Place to stay

Lovely Destin. Ejoyed going to the beach on the shuttle. The place was great! Stay out of the family hot tub.
- Posted: 4/29/2022

Clean and comfortable

I booked Klaus 1&2 for my family and it was a great experience. Everything you need is just down the street, that was great being that mother is disabled. Easy access to the beach with no crowds to worry about. Clean and comfortable for a family, I would definitely book again.
- Posted: 4/21/2022

Great condo with beautiful view!

Since I had been to Destin before and would spend a lot of time at the Harborwalk, I decided to stay there on this visit and it did not disappoint. The accommodations were excellent as well as the facilities. I arrived early and as expected, had to wait to check-in so we went and had lunch. They did give us a parking pass so that we would be covered. Once we checked in, it was a very quick and simple process. The only complaint, if you can call it one, is I wish they would have told me about the guest parking area. It didn't affect me until my last day there when the garage was just completely full. But other than that, the location is perfect and you can walk to everything unless there is something specific that is off location that you want to do. The beach shuttle boat is great and all you need is what ever snacks/drinks you want to take since the towels, chairs and umbrellas are all provided. Will definitely be staying there on our next visit, so long as there is availability.
- Posted: 3/31/2022

The condo location was perfect. The decor was lovely.

We enjoyed our stay in a the beautiful beach town of Destin. Loved the condo and location.

Family vacation

We loved how we could walk right out of the house to the beach!!
- Posted: 8/7/2021

Overall enjoyed

Would rent again if stove is fixed. Stove top shocked us with about 28 volts when we accidentally touched it. The top is cracked and water or condensation dripped from the range hood constantly. It quit working before we ever used it. Overall I love the location and the beach was right out our back door.
- Posted: 8/4/2021

Very pretty and contemporary

Great experience. Property was very comfortable. Smaller than the pictures show but still comfortable.

Great location!

Our family had a great time this week at this property. We really appreciated the modern renovations, the proximity to the beach, and the great location. It was perfect to unwind, enjoy the beach, see amazing sunsets, and it’s just a quick drive to restaurants and shopping. Would definitely stay here again.

Just what we needed!

This stay was amazing! My 5 year old loved the bunk beds. Being steps away from the beach is the most convenient thing especially with kids!! The only thing I wish it had was a dining table inside.
