Sugar Sand Fall Break

We have stayed at 4 different properties in Destin Point. This was our favorite property so far! Pros: 1 - comfortable beds! So many rentals cheap out on mattresses and bedding. We all agreed that these beds were the best we’ve had. 2 - heated pool! Granted, this is the first rental we’ve had with its own pool, but wouldn’t rent a property without one. 3 - extras! Spice cabinet was full. Likely a combo from the owner and previous guests, but appreciated not have to buy a lot. Beach towels provided. We used our own for the beach and the house towels for the pool. Games and snacks were a nice addition. Cons: Gold carts not allowed. The walk to the beach isn’t terrible, but would be nice if community allowed the use of golf carts. I’d recommend this property and will likely stay here again in the future.

Perfect Beach Getaway

Property was gorgeous and had every possible amenity you could think of. Loads of beach and pool toys/floaties, even beach wagons for lugging toys and toddlers to the beach! Hosts were extremely quick to respond to any inquiries and were more than accommodating. Spent a week with my wife, our 2 year old daughter, my brother-in-law, his wife and their 2 young children. And the house was perfect size for all of us. Will definitely visit this property again!

Excellent Property! Large Private Pool!

This is an excellent property! We have stayed a multiple properties at Destin Pointe over the years, but this one by far has the largest private pool, which was excellent for getting the laps in without additional people in the way. With our group of six, there was plenty of space and we had one room to spare. The house itself has a great layout for large families. The house was very clean! The kitchen was well stocked and had everything we needed for cooking. WiFi was a little slow most of the time, which made it a little difficult to work away from the office, but most plan to be on vacation instead of connecting to the office anyway. Nichole was a great host and easy to communicate with. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay at your beautiful Sugar Sand Cottage!

Amazing vacation

This house was everything we could have asked for. With 3 young kids the private heated pool was perfect and came so well equipped with pool toys for the kids. The house itself has a great layout for large families. The kitchen was so well stocked and had everything we could think of for cooking and was kid friendly. The beach towels/chairs/toys/wagon were a huge hit too. We cannot wait to come back again next year and enjoy more time at the Sugar Sand cottage :) Nichole was the perfect host- always quick to respond and answer any questions we had. Thank you so much for making our stay so wonderful and letting us use your cozy beach house to build more family memories!

Great family beach house

My family really enjoyed staying at this property. It was comfy, clean, and updated. The pool was perfect for days that we did not want to walk to the beach with a young child, and for hanging out in the evenings. House was well stocked with necessities. Nichole was easy to communicate with and prompt at answering questions.

First ever house rental

Alot of thought was put into the choice of this 'first ever' for me...our kids and grands have done similar trips in the past! We wanted private pool; easy, convenient beach access; enough beds and bathrooms for 6 adults and 4 kids...and shade for me > to escape to but still being able to enjoy the kids in the pool. This was perfect!!

From Houston to Destin

Great trip! Family vacation for 9: two parents plus 6 kids (one adult, three teens and two elementary age), plus one granny. Interesting feature of the house was that the living area was on the upper floor with bedrooms on the lower. Backyard pool can only be accessed thru master bedroom, otherwise you’d have to go out the front door and around to backyard. Note: Wi-fi didn’t have enough range or speed for our many users. We do have a bunch! Decor was great! Location was great! Having a pool was great, especially if you have a wide range of kids. House was well stocked with bath and kitchen necessities. Beach towels available. Plenty of bedding. Beach chairs and all that, if needed. We had a wonderful time. Very thankful for this cozy, relaxing house to stay in while at beautiful Destin!

This beach house is in a great spot for vacationing on the beach. It is close to beach access although there is a bit of a walk. If you catch the shuttle it helps alot. The house is lovely with a spectacular view of pond with lots of bird activity. The house to me

GREAT TRIP

We brought 7 kids with us for their Spring Break, ranging in ages from 7-15. Nichole was a great host. She answered all of my questions, day or night. The check-in process was easy and we were even able to check in a little early. There was plenty of pots, pants, utensils, etc for cooking. Since we had a group of 11, we definitely utilized the kitchen a lot. I would definitely book this place again. We had a great time!

Destin Pointe Amazing

Great stay. Check in process easy and good communication with owners. 1 early issue with pool heater but fixed by next morning. Owners emailed back quickly and addressed the issue. House clean. Mattress in good shape. Nice sheets and towels. Having owners beach towels available with nice luxury to avoid packing from home. Good choice of pots and pans. Fridge clean. Bathrooms spotless. Had 5 adults and 4 kids. Plenty of space. Kids loved the heated pool and used it everynight. Kids also liked the community pools were big and convenient. Enjoyed gated community and piece of mind letting kids walk to pool without constant supervision. Beach convenient and clean. Here in February but felt like a private beach. Worth the money and would rent again. Thank u Nichole and Chris
