Absolutely loved this property! It worked out extremely well for our group of 9 plus family & friends who visited while we were there. We enjoyed the pool as well as the beach access. I would definitely recommend to others needing several bedrooms & room to spread out! DeWanna was very responsive!

We had plan to stay for 7 days but had to leave a day early, we did have to baby proof and move furniture and remember where things went, but it was a great place, we had 8 kids and all had plenty of room. We would 100% rent this home for our next vacation. House didn’t have high chair, but host sent one right to the home, highly recommended this listing

Family Vacation

We enjoyed our stay. The property worked out well for us with the way it is set up. Having the separate but attached space across the garage was helpful for our family. We had hoped the beach access was a little closer, but it was not hard to get to. Overall, we would recommend & we would come back again.

House was very comfortable and family friendly...pool was amazing and very well kept, and was used several times each day. Only negatives were living room couches were not comfortable, and floors were not as clean as we would have liked...it looked like they had been cleaned with dirty water, particularly the in law suite, and by the end of the day, the kid's socks were black from the residue left behind. Overall, our stay was terrific, and helped make our family vacation amazing!!

Great vacation rental

House was big and roomy , plenty of sitting space . Was very clean , beds were comfortable . The carport fridge was a very welcome addition . Pool was large enough for us all . Wish cleaners had come by and vacuumed sooner than they did , but still wasn’t an issue . We had a great time . Hope to be back next year.

Great getaway!

We had a great experience with this house. Plenty of room for all 10 of us. The private pool was very clean and we used it every day, as the beach/ ocean was a bit too rough our week for a toddler. We found all the dishes we needed to cook all of our meals. Linens were clean and in great shape/ quality. Host was very responsive to any needs, not that we had many. House was very private, short walk or drive to the private beach. We would definitely recommend.

Wonderful family vacation

This house was perfect for the Ten of us. The attached sleeping quarters was perfect for our son, wife, and 10, and 8 year old. Master suite was spacious with lots of storage, Our Daughter, husband, 4yr old and 2yr old had the Two other B/R and bath. We did bring a pack and play for the 2yr old. Kids enjoyed playing in Florida room even without A/C. Wi-Fi was a bit stained with all using it. The private Beach was wonderful and close, and much less crowded then the other beaches. The pool was the best ever, it was large enough with lots of pool toys.the depth ranged from approximately 2.5 to 5ft. Would highly recommend this place for a large group.

Beach Sanctuary was perfect week away with family

The private pool was amazing to swim everyday with the kids. The beach was just a short walk everyday and the private beach was really nice. We enjoyed the space and it was perfect for our family and our daughters family too. Everyone had a great time. We enjoyed eating together at the big table and then everyone still had a separate space. It is just the right distance from Destin. The only changes I would make would be two fobs for beach access for two families and families with teenagers.Also, the separate in law suite needs an additional air conditioning unit, the boys were too hot to sleep and we did bring a fan which made it tolerable. Additionally, a golf cart would be a luxury addition. Very clean and great neighborhood! We hope to return.

Loved Our Stay

We had a wonderful stay at Miramar beach. The house was large enough for eight adults and one infant. We never felt like we were too crowded or needed more space. The air conditioner kept the house cool during a very hot week (heat index was over 100 degrees). The pool was perfect and was a huge hit with the whole family. We cooked almost every night and loved having a grocery store less than five minutes away. The kitchen had plenty of glasses and plates, but it could use more spoons, coffee mugs, and baking sheets. The beds were comfortable, but the bunk beds could use better mattresses. We were concerned about only having one key fob, but we organized ourselves and it seemed to work itself out each day. We truly had no complaints and had one of our best family vacations ever.
