Perfect

The house was perfect for our family vacation. We like to cook a couple of nights, and the kitchen had everything we needed to do that. We loved having the full size washer and dryer. We will definitely consider this house for future family vacations.From the time the house was booked, until after we checked out, the communication with the owner was excellent.

Great family vacation

The house was spacious and clean. There was adequate dishes and cookware. Beds could have been more comfortable. Long walk to the beach but not unbearable. For the cost of cleaning fees it could have been cleaner( candy found under and behind couch on arrival). My only real complaint would be that we couldn’t really go out and enjoy the back patio due to the remodeling going on next door, too loud and no privacy. Altogether though it was super nice and we all enjoyed our trip.

Great getaway

We love the destin area and even though July is crazy busy the gated community and private beach made it a great experience. We like having a kitchen since the restaurants get really busy. No issues with the place. It was great and there are tvs in every room. I recommend renting a boat and going to crab Island or the beaches in the bay.

Family Gathering at the Mara Lee Home

Larry and Mara Lee were the perfect hosts for our family gathering! They provided a whole folder full of things to do while we were in the area, and there was something for everyone for our extended family of 7. Our favorite times were at the pool and private beach, which were within walking distance. We used their wagon for the grand kids, and we also had the option to park closer to the beach in the resort parking lot when we went at sunset. Their home was equipped with everything we needed to grill our freshly caught fish, and there were many fishing charters to choose from! We took a day to explore Grayton Beach State Park and HWY 30A, and the grandkids, ages 3 and 5, loved our Buccaneer Pirate Ship cruise, located at Destin Harbor, which we did in the evening to enjoy the sunset. The floor plan of the house was perfect for all of our needs! Mara Lee and Larry had great ideas and were readily available, and we felt very blessed to share this family time in their beautiful and very well-kept home!

Perfect for our family vacation.

The house was just a pictured. Very clean, well maintained and equipped with everything you could need. It was perfect for our family of 6, including 3 adult children and a teenager. The beach was a short easy walk, a pool and pickle ball/tennis courts even closer. Communication with the owner and property manager was excellent. After booking, we received an very organized folder of information that covered everything including local restaurants and attractions. If we return to Destin we would definitely book this property again. Highly recommend!

Best trip in a long time

Mara Lee's property was superb!! She made me feel right at home. The home was a perfect size for my family and friends, we really enjoyed it. The beach was a good proximity to the home maybe not in walking distance IF you have mobility problems but it is doable for younger people in the heat. I will definitely refer my friends and family to stay there and I will definitely be back. Thank you

Great vacation!

Miramar Beach/Destin is our favorite vacation spot. This is our second time staying in Maravilla, but our first time renting a house. Communication between Mara was excellent. Her and her husband were so kind and helpful. Chuck met us at the house to give us access and keys to the house. Mara Lee's house was wonderful, and was perfect for our party of 8...4 adults and 4 kids. Kids ages ranged from 9-17. Everyone was very comfortable in their own spaces. We only used the front pool, which was wonderful. My 9 year old loves it. We were so sad when we had to leave, but cannot wait to return next summer!

Great family home!

This is our 2nd time I’m Destin and fell in love all over again. This year it was a larger group of us ranging from 8 years old to teenagers and a few adults. Mara Lee was a great host! She was very prompt at answering any questions I had and gave us a ton of ideas on restaurants, activities, etc. Last time we went to different beaches, but this time we stayed at the one for the resort. It’s a very short walk and the free umbrella and chairs is a definite plus!! I recommend this place again and will stay again when we come back.
