Luxury High End total Renovation-240 yds to beach-PetFriendly

“As Goos As It Gets" A perfect '10' cottage is now even better as Spring 2020 remodel includes a new high end luxury kitchen and new master bathroom. Everything is freshly painted and beautiful new driftwood tile floors. This is a luxury stay! The property features a front covered porch, rear screened porch, and a lushly landscaped yard with a picket fence with lavish pool right out back. Very clean! Beach service (Chairs and unbrella) for 2 included!
NO GOLF CART REQUIRED - 2 min walk to beach! Restaurants nearby for short walk!

A VERY short walk to private uncrowded Frangista beach (4 minutes and your toes are in the famous Emerald Waters) with the uncrowded neighborhood pool directly behind home. You can sit on screened porch and watch the kids swim in the luxurious large pool. This charming cottage has 11 ft ceilings and all driftwood tile floors (no carpet). The owner is an interior/kitchen and bath designer and has left nothing unattended - you will be pleasantly surprised by the tasteful vintage decor. Colors are soft and relaxing and no detail has been overlooked including high quality bedding. You will be charmed by the iron beds, cotton quilts and vintage linen fabrics. There is a large LCD TV with surround sound in the gathering room and 3 flat screens in bedrooms as well as DVD in living room. There is a luxury king bed in the master (guests rave), a king in bedroom 2 and queen in the other bedroom. There is also a queen sleeper sofa (new in 2019) and a queen air mattress with integrated air inflation.

You will feel as if you are staying at a Five Star Luxury Bed and Breakfast. The master suite, named La Jardin Suite (the garden suite) has soft pistachio green walls, hydrangea wreath, garden statuary, wrought iron accents, and beautiful art and accessories. It is refreshing and relaxing and perfect in every detail. The secondary suite, named La Petite Suite, is decorated with a Country French cotton quilt and bedding, black iron bed and black distressed furnishings. Beautiful original oils and limited edition prints complete the pleasing ambience of this room.

The kitchen is fully equipped so if you prefer to donning your apron instead of waiting in line at a restaurant, everything you need is there including stainless appliances, a new LG induction range, a new Bosch dishwasher, Bosch side by side fridge with ice and water in the door and and refrigerated filtered water at the sink.

The gathering room is something out of a magazine with it's slip-covered furniture, original oils and vintage touches. The large oval table in a distressed red finish will seat 3-4 plus 5 at the kitchen island.

The walk to the beach is about 200 yards (very very short). Your toes will touch the beautiful white sands of the Gulf in minutes. You cross Scenic 98 which is not busy. It also has speed bumps all along the road and at the private beach access. Although we have wireless internet access, you can also walk to the corner to 'Bad Ass Coffee' for internet access and a great cup of java. If you are not familiar with Scenic 98 location, it departs from hwy 98 at the Destin Commons Mall and comes back into 98 at Silver Sands Outlet Mall (shopping mecas). This is the road where Pompano Joes and Destiny By The Sea is located. The beaches are uncrowded due the absence of high rise condos in the area.
We are confident if you stay once, you will return, making 'As Good As It Gets' your Florida beach tradition.

It Really IS As Good As It Gets!!!
This cozy and beautifully decorated beach house has everything you need for a perfect beach vacation! We slept great in the cozy beds and enjoyed cooking meals in the well stocked kitchen. The owner seriously thought of EVERYTHING to make our stay as comfortable as possible. Just a quick walk and you’re at the beach or the community pool is right behind the house. This is the best VRBO property we have ever stayed in! We will definitely be back!

This little cottage was perfect for my "solo" getaway after a very long winter. I loved the very comfortable homey feeling. The location was ideal and loved the very peaceful, quiet neghborhood. It was heaven!

Spring Break 2024
Beautiful cottage for our family of five plus one! Community pool was never crowded and literally in the backyard…beach is just a (very) short walk with chair and umbrella service for two. Traffic was heavy, maybe just the time of year…golf carts everywhere, we’ll definitely rent one next trip. Everything was perfect, I didn’t need to bother the owner with anything!

Love this cottage
I’ve stayed here before. We always come back. The renovation is top notch. Kitchen has everything to cook full meals. It’s really beautiful and the owner is very responsive. So close to beach and the pool is right in the back of house. We love the screened back porch. The chairs and umbrella with your name is the icing on the cake.

Myself, husband and two year old son had the best time. The pool is right behind the property and they have a lot of beach gear ready for your stay! Rafts, boogie boards, corn hole, sand buckets, etc. Easy walks to grab coffee, the beach and eateries - Pompano Joe’s!

As Good As It Gets
We loved our stay! The cottage gave off a wonderful Beach/ Farmhouse feel with a cozy decor and high ceilings. We cook a lot so got a lot of use out of the stocked kitchen. The owner's small touches made it feel like home. It had all the amenities we needed and short walk to the beach. Would love to come visit again!
