Pet friendly, pool, garage & private backyard! 2 blocks to the beach!

Recently upgraded 2 story home is tucked away in the secluded, quiet (only 10 homes) community of Miramar Palms. There is a large, covered front porch, sun balcony, private backyard, garage and all 2 blocks or a 5 min walk to the beach!

Relaxing beach theme throughout the home with tile flooring downstairs including the spacious Master bedroom where you will enjoy the comfort of a high quality, new king sized bed with fresh, new linens. Plenty of storage in the closet and the beautifully finished Master bathroom has double vanities, a large walk in shower and separate oversized jacuzzi tub. A desk is provided should you have to attend to a little business between visits to the beach – high speed internet is included.

Upstairs, Bedroom 2 has a queen size bed, large walk in closet and access to the sun balcony (perfect little suntrap!). Bedroom 3 also has a queen size bed with large closet.
Shared, spacious bathroom with double sinks and walk in shower.

Fully equipped kitchen has everything you need to prepare a meal after a long day at the beach should you tire of eating out at the numerous restaurants in the area. It is equipped with Keurig and filter coffee makers, coffee grinder, toaster, toaster oven, tea kettle and blender.

The dining table has seating for 6 with 2 additional bar stools and the living room has space for everybody to enjoy a movie or watch TV. A selection of games and DVD’s are provided for a fun evening with family and friends. New smart Roku TV's so easy to stream all your favorite shows. A dartboard is in the garage for more fun evenings!

The fully fenced, private back yard is perfect for a day at home. Patio furniture with umbrella provided and there is an outdoor shower. Just a few steps to the neighborhood pool with plenty of seating for everybody – it is rarely busy.

Only 2 blocks to the beautiful beach with it’s white sands and clear blue/green sea – either take a short, 5 min walk or a 5 min drive to Pompano Joes restaurant where there is large public parking lot and beach access with rest rooms and showers to wash off the sand before you leave. We have also provided beach chairs, a beach cart and an umbrella for your use.

A full sized washer and dryer are also provided to freshen those beach towels after your day enjoying the sand and sea.

Perfect for a relaxing couples vacation or for families, this small community of just 10 homes on its palm tree lined private street will welcome you and have you in the mood to enjoy your vacation as soon as you arrive!

The front porch is perfect for enjoying your morning coffee with the birds or relax with a glass of wine in the evening. Children can play safely whilst you keep an eye on them in this quiet cul de sac setting.

Several restaurants and a coffee shop are within walking distance and there are plenty of shopping opportunities should you tire of the beach! A short drive will take you to Silver Sands Outlet Mall, Destin Commons Plaza and Sandestin Golf & Beach Resort. All offer endless shopping opportunities, dining to suit everyone’s taste and activities and events for all to enjoy – there is always something to do - or just relax and enjoy your vacation!

Great Space
This place was cozy like home! Very clean, nice back yard for our small dog, we enjoyed our visit! The pool was close by, the beach was a bit of a walk, but not too far! We loved eating at The Edge, and shopping was close by too!

Summer 2024 Family Vacation
The accommodations are exactly as described by owners. The house is vey nicely appointed and everyone enjoyed staying there. We enjoyed the pool several times and the beach is a bit of a walk but it isn’t unreasonable. The wagon is a big help to load chairs and bags. We would definitely stay again.

Great vacation, great location!
I really can’t say enough about how much we enjoyed our stay! The quaint location of this rental made it feel like we were in our own little resort area. Two blocks from the beach and a great restaurant made it easy to enjoy whenever we wanted, and the pool was always available and rarely had more than one family using it! The rental gave us the space we needed and the ability to bring our small dog which was so important. We will definitely stay again!

Wonderful Home Away From Home
My family & I enjoyed an awesome vacation staying here. The house was very clean & comfortable. It was extremely well stocked & we appreciated all the beach items (it made it super nice not to have to travel with all the extras usually required). The owners were always quick to respond to any questions we had. Truly a relaxing & wonderful time!!

The home is beautifully decorated and in great condition. We appreciated the quiet little neighborhood, and the close proximity to the beach and many golf courses. Also appreciated the desk, making it comfortable to work-from-anywhere. Also appreciated your prompt responses to questions, Gaynor. Thanks for allowing us to stay in your lovely home.

The house is beautiful and very clean and neat. The backyard is perfect for your dog! The garage is stocked with beach chairs and umbrellas. It is a bit of a walk in the sun to the beach but there is plenty of parking at the public beach access. We had a wonderful week!

Wonderful Stay!
We had a wonderful stay in Miramar Beach! The home is adorable! Very cozy, well-maintained and clean. We cooked several nights and the kitchen was fully stocked with pots, pans and utensils. It was so wonderful that they provided beach chairs, toys, bikes, etc. for us to borrow. It helped to make our stay perfect! We had to email back and forth with the owners a few times and they were extremely attentive and helpful. We honestly could not have picked a better place to stay! Thank you for sharing your home with us! We hope to be back soon!

Wonderful home for a relaxing vacation.
Gaynor was wonderful to work with. She was kind & helpful in making sure all the details worked out for us. The home was incredibly clean upon arrival & is located on a quiet street away from all the traffic. The bedrooms are very spacious & the open kitchen & family room are perfect for a family vacation. We loved having the bikes & body boards in the garage. There is an incredible path for biking & jogging about a block away. We had a very relaxing and enjoyable stay at this home and hope to stay here again. Thank you Gaynor.

Destin Vacation
The house was clean and the perfect size for our family. The pool is literally steps away from the house and most of the time nobody was there which was nice. The street was very quiet. We had plenty of privacy. The beach bikes helped out if you didn't want to set up at the beach early. You could just drop everyone out at Pompano Joe's, drive back to the house, and ride the bike back or you could load the bikes into the truck, get there early, leave your vehicle there, and ride the bikes back and bike back whenever you decide to return. Nice Place!!

An impeccably decorated pet friendly house with all the accommodations and more of home.
We were very pleased with this home! The location in its tiny community gave way to wonderful inner actions with neighbors at the pool but also gave quaint privacy. The house gave us a safe harbor when tropical storm Colin blew through. We enjoyed all the luxuries of home while away on vacation and this house had ample beach supplies, ex; beach cart, chairs, umbrella and bikes! We loved this house for its pet friendly accommodation and the fenced in back yard was appreciated! The house was beautifully decorated and had plenty of space. There was always an open line of communication to the home owner whenever we had questions. We left this house with sandy toes and salty kisses.

Cozy home, off the beaten path, but in the heart of it all. Great amenities, neighbors and hosts!
The Grays couldn't have been more helpful and accommodating if they tried! Wonderful hosts with a lovely home. The location was off the beaten path, just enough to not be bothered by the hustle and bustle of vacation life, but still in the heart of it all. Easy access to most everything. The home was well maintained, tastefully decorated, and had all the comforts of home. The beach items we were able to borrow were a nice bonus. The little neighborhood is a mixture of permanent residents and rentals. The permanent neighbors we very kind and welcoming. We were also able to bring our furry, four-legged family member without any concern. The fenced in back yard was intimate, with the front and side yard giving us even more yard to play in with our dog. A nice asset. Thank you for opening your home to us.

Amazing location and comfort!
We just returned from staying at Mike and Gaynor's beautiful home in Destin / Miramar and can't brag enough at how comfortable this place is. We traveled with family and 2 children who absolutely loved too. The house is VERY quiet and not once did we hear any neighbors or noise outside the home. The pool was great to swim in and the garage was full of everything you would need for a day at the beach. Mike and Gaynor were very attentive to my emails and kept us informed of the check-in and check-out process to make things effortless. I will 100% return and recommend this home to family and friends. Things to note: The master suite is downstairs. This is a very nice feature! The remaining 2 bedrooms are upstairs with their own large bathroom. The beds are very very comfortable. If you walk to the beach, the gate at the end of the road is never locked (not sure it has one) and is the best place to enjoy your day. Be sure to go to Crab Island as it was the highlight of our trip! Thank you for such a wonderful trip!

A beautiful home for our vacation
This house was wonderful. It was immaculate. It was very roomy and comfortable. The house was decorated very nicely and very clean. We had such a wonderful vacation and we want to thank Mike and Gaynor for allowing us to stay in their beautiful home. We did so many different things on this vacation. We rented a pontoon boat and went out to Crab Island. We also went on other excursions, such as a snorkeling and shelling excursion. We also went on the sunset cruise. We also went to different restaurants, such as Bubba Gump, Fudpuckers , and HarryT. All had very good food and they were fun. We hope to maybe come back again. And thanks again for everything. Gaynor is such a wonderful person to talk to and she also responds back to you very quickly, especially if you need to know anything. Thank you, Gale Newmaster and family. Jonestown, Pa.
