"Great Location for a beach stay - I'd like to share some important details about the place we stayed at recently. The location was fantastic, with the beach being just a short distance away and not too crowded. However, it's worth noting that the golf cart is not included in the initial price and comes with an additional fee. Additionally, there are rules in place due to the HOA regulations - for instance, you're required to rent an umbrella instead of using your own, but you can bring your own chairs. Overall, the house was lovely and the location was enjoyable.
I had a great experience with RealJoy. I reached out to them twice, and both times they were really helpful and easy to work with."

""Summer Blast" was just that! This was our first trip to Destin and for context, we're seasoned travelers used to nice accommodations. The home is as-advertised, but the neighborhood - Destiny by Sea - was the pleasant surprise and is the nicest in the area (just check out the home values on Zillow). Any home there wocuuld be a treat to stay in! The home is large and comes with three levels very well-equipped for entertaining with two balconies, plenty of seating and a wet bar with plenty of ice. The master suite on the upper level is like a honeymoon suite, so be the first one in to get dibs on that. "
