Italian Villa · 200 steps to beach · Free cruise tickets · Pool views · Pets OK!

This million dollar "Old Veneto'' villa is located in one of the nicest private neighborhoods in Destin / Miramar Beach area - St Tropez; a high-end, exclusive, gated community with exotic lush landscapes, and a resort-style lagoon pool that is only 200 steps away from the beach - or the distance you often walk from one corner of a supermarket to another.

This Italian themed 3-story, high-ceiling, luxury home is perfect to accommodate a large family or two, with it's 4 bedrooms + 2 "bonus" bedrooms, 5 bathrooms, beds for up to 12 guests and luxury soft 1000-thread-count egyptian cotton bedding.

An antique renaissance-themed decor furnishes the house. Relax, decompress and catch the vibe. Cook an authentic Italian dish in our fully stocked gourmet kitchen featuring granite countertops and stainless steel appliances. Or use a grill for a grigliata (italian BBQ) for your family. Whatever the occasion is-there is a bottle of olive oil and some handcrafted artisan dinnerware set waiting for it in the cabinet.

Enjoy the quiet and beautiful view of the large pool with sparkling fountains, oversized hot tub, and the tropical garden with tall palm trees from furnished lounging balconies. Or, take our provided beach chairs, umbrellas, and wagon, and walk into the oasis of sugar-white sand beach and crystal clear waters of the Emerald Coast through the private beach access gate. There is a nice oceanfront seafood restaurant that is conveniently located right next to the beach for a quick meal or a drink. The villa is in close proximity to all local attractions, the shopping mall, and restaurants and has a convenient parking for up to 3 passenger cars or light trucks. Larger trucks or boats can be parked at the overflow parking right across the street.

For the entertainment we provide free wifi internet, large 4K Smart TV in the living room and smart TVs in every bedroom, complimentary Disney+, Netflix, Hulu, Amazon Prime and IMDB Tv with tens of thousands premium on-demand movies and shows.

One free ticket to a dolphin watch and sightseeing cruise included with every night you stay with us. Means if you booked let's say 5 nights, you will get 5 complimentary tickets.

Weekly and monthly reservation discounts are available. We are pet friendly (breed restrictions and additional fees apply). We have a very strict homeowner association in order to make sure that all guests are comfortable. No house parties are allowed and no one under 25 is allowed to rent in the neighborhood. We hope you will enjoy your quiet, safe, and family friendly stay in our Mediterranean-style villa. Please call to ask any questions you may have and reserve your spot today. Ciao!

*There is an extra twin pull out bed in the master bedroom and bonus bedroom downstairs for larger parties or people with difficulties using stairs. We have a lot of stairs!

Great spot and location!
We had a rather large group, two family of four, with kids ranging from 1 year to 3 years old. As well as a set of grandparents for each. Having the pool directly out back for the little ones was one of the best features. Also included a hot tub that was HOT and toasty. Pool water was a bit chilly at first, first full week of May but nothing that you couldn’t get accustomed to, at least for these midwesterners. The beach was a bit of a hike, probably about 200 yards in total or so and included plenty of stairs so made taking a full wagon challenging. Also to note, beach chair/umbrella rentals are set up directly in front of the stairs and you need to walk probably 25-30 yards down in front of Surf Hut and there is a area of about 50 yards of public beach you can set up at. We didn’t have much challenge finding a spot but I imagine during summer months when school is out it’s a bit more challenging. I also want to point out the bedroom layouts as I think the description is a bit misleading and I did communicate this to the property manager, so maybe it may be updated. But when you enter the home, I consider this the 1st level. There is only the bonus room with the pull out couch. You have to go up a level to get to the first set of bedrooms that are listed on the first floor and then one more flight for the next. Overall place was great and I wouldn’t hesitate to book again, especially as kids get older and able to walk more themselves.

8 days at St Tropez
We had a rough start because the house had not been cleaned, but Irene helped us get sheets and towels for the first night, and the cleaning crew showed up early the next morning. The house is in a great location with easy access to beach, stores, restaurants and entertainment venues.

5 STARS AT OLD VENETO!!
Our family had a WONDERFUL stay at Old Veneto. The St. Tropez villa's are AMAZING!! The location was superb- very close to the beach and local resturants and a huge variety of shops. The walk across the way to the beach was an easy one; but our favorite activity was sitting at the beautiful pool & hot tub or just enjoying the Florida sunshine from our 3-story balconies. The villa was very clean and had plenty of pool & beach toys and chairs for our kids. Irene, the PM did a great job of answering all of our questions and was very attentive during our stay. We CANNOT wait to return to this beautiful property!
