Our family had a wonderful time staying here.
The house is in a great location between Destin and Panama City, plus walking distance to the beach. It was spacious, clean, had comfy beds and couches, and plenty of towels (including the beach variety). Actually these were the most comfortable beds I've ever slept in away from home.
The best part about the house though is the AC. We did not do our research well enough and had looked up average temps for June thinking 85 felt like 85, but it never cools down at night and the brutal humidity adds a minimum of 10 more degrees. Thankfully the AC in this house is a beast and has no problem hitting the 70 degree limit they have. I would be very scared staying in an older home.
One other tip for future guests. The conditions on the beach are unpredictable. There were red and purple flag warnings almost every day we were there, but driving up or down the coast sometimes resulted in much better conditions. I have seen reviews of this beach as being pristine, but in addition to the rip tide and jellyfish warnings, the water was clogged with algae and seaweed when we were here. Just something to be aware of if you are expecting nothing but picturesque waters.
The only minor inconvenience I had with the house was that the garage was too hot and small to really make use of the ping pong table. We had looked forward to using that, but barely touched it because of these reasons. Not a big deal though - we were usually exhausted at the end of the day anyway.
Thanks for hosting us. It was a fantastic stay and we would come back here again, although probably earlier in the season.
