Description of the Destin vacation home rental
"Down By The Sea" is a NEW 5 bedroom & 4 bath Luxury Beach Home that includes 3 King Suites, spectacular Gulf views from the 2nd & 3rd levels, a large Private Pool with a one-of-a-kind shallow kid’s play area (i.e. only 16" deep) that is perfect for toddlers and small children, 2 heated community pools, private beach access to Destin’s famous sugar white sand beaches, and is located in an exclusive gated Destin neighborhood just steps from the sugar white sand beach!

This home is custom built for 1 to 3 adult families that each want a Master Suite / King bedroom for themselves, 2 bedrooms for the kid's, a crib room for up to 2 babies, and one of our King Suites is located even on the 1st floor for the grandparents or anyone that may have trouble climbing stairs! For families with small children and babies, we provide a full sized baby crib that resides in its own baby room inside the Primary Master Suite. We also provide a pack-and-play, high-chair, 2 toddler booster seats, baby walker seat, umbrella stroller, and kid's pool / beach play toys free to charge! Even though this home has 5 bedrooms, it is perfect for groups between 4 and 14, and we generally offer special discounts to smaller groups! This NEW $1.7+ Million luxury home was carefully designed to exceed the expectations of the most discriminate vacationing family yet was also designed to accommodate the most basic needs of a mother with small children, and is therefore perfect for those desiring to generate lasting family memories!

Our home is also a short walk to 2 very fun family appropriate beach restaurants / beach bars that offer open air seating and beautiful views of the gulf and sand! Both are perfect for drinks, lunch or dinner. Additionally, there is a nice ice cream/sandwich shop less than 1 minute from the back of our home that is a favorite destination for our kid's after dinner! Approximately 2 blocks to the east is a gourmet coffee shop that also serves breakfast and lunch sandwiches, and there is a great family style pizza parlor that has video games and a juke box! In addition to the local amenities within walking distance, we are less than a 5 minute drive to countless other restaurants, shopping malls, movie theaters, grocery stores, amusement parks, golfing, fishing, etc.

The home boasts 4300 square feet of luxury living space including 900 square feet of private balconies. The home also offers spectacular views of the Gulf, is located approximately 100 yards from the private beach, and is a one-of-a-kind custom Mediterranean style home with a rich stucco exterior and custom tile roof! For families with small children and babies, we provide a full sized baby crib that resides in its own baby room inside the Primary Master Suite. We also provide a pack-and-play, high-chair, 2 toddler booster seats, baby walker, umbrella stroller and kid's pool / beach play toys free to charge!

The yard is truly an oasis and includes a spectacular one-of-a-kind large PRIVATE swimming pool (12'W x 24'L) PLUS a shallow kid’s pool area (7'W x 9'L) that is only 16" deep and is a perfect play area for toddlers and young kids! While the big kids swim at the deeper end of pool and the small kid’s splash in the shallow kid’s area, the adults can relax on the Lounge Deck "INSIDE" the pool that also can accommodate 1 or 2 full-size lounge chairs for sunbathing without leaving the cool waters of the pool! Adjacent to the pool’s lounge deck is also a large sunbathing area on the pool deck, an outside shower, a large covered porch that overlooks the pool, and a professionally landscaped yard!

The 1st FLOOR of the home boasts 10 foot ceilings, a fully stocked gourmet kitchen with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a spacious open floor plan that includes a large dining area that can accommodate up to 10 at a time, and a large living room that includes a large TV with Digital Cable, DVD and surround sound entertainment.

The 1st floor also includes a large front bedroom with a king-size bed and attached bathroom and walk-in closet (This bedroom is perfect for those older residents or those that have trouble climbing stairs!).

We were a family of 7 adults and 3 children, ages 8, 5, and 3 yrs. old staying in this home. Everything is just as the pictures show-this is a beautiful home inside & out! The home is decorated beautifully and looks new. It has been well maintained by the owners and previous vacation renters. The kitchen is well stocked with anything a cook would need. We grilled a couple of times on the outdoor grill. The children loved playing in the pool when we were not at the beach. We especially liked the 16" water in one area of the pool for the 3 yr. old to play in. There is an outside storage bin with all the pool toys one would need. The beach is a short walk and there is a convenient place to shop across the street. We look forward to our next trip back as a family reunion.
