Awesome place
This place is a great place to stay. We had fun at the beach and our private pool. Only thing I would ask is for better deck chairs that sit higher then the railing so you can look over the deck easier. Other then that, great place.

Splendid Family Vacation
This was our favorite family vacation yet! The house location was perfect! Close to restaurants and bars! Right on the beach! Walk out the back door into the white sands and emerald waters of Destin. The complimentary beach set up was super nice. Overall the house was fantastic, a few shower heads could be updated and provide some household items/beach towels. We can’t wait to come back and stay again!

Perfect Location!
Perfect location on the beach and also walkable to some restaurants (and the mall). Super responsive managers -- they sent a person to fix a broken banister right away. You cannot beat the convenience of this place. It is a bit well-worn in places, but super comfortable and convenient.

This is a house in a great location with great view and nice amenities but needs work to be really spectacular. The furniture has a quick and economical fix! Either buy some new furniture or at least furniture covers and wash them in between uses to cover the stains and hide the rips on the arms of the chairs. To keep the upstairs rooms cool, keep all the shades and doors closed at all times. Don’t forget to empty the water reservoirs in the two humidifiers located in the two primary bedrooms and disinfect them in between renters. Something in the two primary’s smells. Find the source and fix it. Washer makes a horrible noise. The best features of this rental are the free setup and tear down of the six chairs and three umbrellas. Priceless when you have young children and elders who cannot help setup. One deck board on the deck needs to be replaced and is a tripping hazard. We are embracing the positives since we spent most of our time at the beach or the well maintained pool. It was our grandchildren’s first time at the beach and they loved using the boogie boards. Thank you for a fun and memorable vacation!

Amazing view
This VRBO was exactly what we were looking for. The view was amazing, we had plenty of room for our family to hang out and relax and loved that we could walk right to the beach from the house. We also walked to restaurants, it was very convenient!!

The house was extremely outdated. The first floor bed was broke. The ac was broke. The house smelt like gas. There was mold on the vents. Several lights were burnt out and didn’t work. We were extremely disappointed in this property.

Review: Serenity Shores – Destin, FLWe recently stayed at Serenity Shores and experienced several issues that significantly impacted our trip. Based on our experience, I would not recommend this property as significant repairs are needed.Major Issue – Ceiling Leaks:There were multiple active leaks in the primary bedroom requiring pans and even 5-gallon buckets to catch water. The ceiling showed bubbling and worsening damage throughout the stay. Repairs were attempted but leaks continued whenever it rained.Ongoing Disruptions:Maintenance and contractors were on-site multiple days. While communication was responsive, the constant presence disrupted privacy and the overall vacation experience.Safety & Water Intrusion:Water leaked into the garage, creating standing water and a slip hazard. With children, this limited safe use of the space and children could not access the refigerator in the garage.Other Issues:Dishwasher did not work for several daysCockroach found in the kitchenThird-floor bathroom outlet not workingPrimary bathroom light fixture came loose and was hanging by the electrical wireRepairs & Relocation:Fixes appeared temporary (sealing/tarping) and did not resolve root issues. A relocation was offered but was smaller and not beachfront, so it wasn’t comparable.OverallGreat location, but the home had ongoing maintenance, water intrusion, and safety concerns that were not resolved during our stay.

The pool was dirty when we got there. we were charged 80 for one hour early check-in. The house is in bad need of repairs. Most of the rooms smelled of mold. The beds were horrible. The furniture was stained and dirty. There were workers there every day we were not able to sit by the pool and relax we could not get out of the driveway or in because of the trucks the Noise we had to put up with. There were insects upstairs in the bedroom. They were light fixtures hanging from the ceilings and mold everywhere.

Excellent location!
It was a wonderful stay in a wonderful location in a beautiful house. Only problem I had was after check out I got an email stating that I was charged $545 for a pool setting being switched to spa mode that put our pool at 104 degrees. We wasn’t even aware that a setting existed so when they told me this I emailed and explained. It didn’t help I was still charged even though we don’t know how it got switched and it was confirmed that the setting was not on spa mode when we checked in on Monday. I was supposed to be credited $200 since it was confirmed Monday and Tuesday was not in spa mode, but that hasn’t happened yet.

MOLD
For starters - this is the first time I have ever left a negative review on a property. I’ll start by saying the location is absolutely perfect. Right on the beach. The complimentary beach service is great.But the house has a major mold problem. The suite on the second floor smelled SO badly of mold, that we couldn’t stay in it. The ceiling in the second floor bathroom is covered in black mold. I have pictures for proof. The air vents have mold in them. There is evident water damage in the garage, bathrooms, and kitchen ceilings. I contacted management to inform them of their negligence in letting families with young children (or anyone for that matter) stay here knowing there is a clearly evident mold problem. They sent someone out with nothing but a spray bottle in hand to “fix the mold”. Absolutely not.This would be a wonderful place if they would take the time to fix the problems and remediate the mold the RIGHT way.

Great house!
Beautiful home on a gorgeous beach! Plenty of space in the house and on the patio. We all had a great time!
The house came with 6 beach chairs and 3 umbrellas, which was very helpful! The house is near a hotel that provided drink/snack service on the beach, which was nice to be able to order tasty treats without leaving the beautiful beach.
We were not impressed with the hospitality of the rental agency. Upon arrival, we had to call the agency, due to the codes not working to get into the house. We called a few minutes later when we noticed the two large trash cans were overflowing with trash. Then, we had to call again when the WiFi wasn’t working. The WiFi didn’t start working until the next morning. There were basic household items we had to order and have delivered, such as laundry soap, dishwasher soap, paper towels, trash bags, and beach towels. While we were there, one of the windows blew out and we called the rental agency immediately. They did send someone out to fix it, but hot air was still coming in and that bathroom was extremely hot the entire time.
Overall—the house location and size was perfect and we had a great time. We overlooked the lack of basic supplies, but figured we should let others know so they can plan to either bring those items or add them to the grocery list.
