The spaceRelax and let the stress of the everyday melt away the second you step into this newly remodeled home only steps from Destin’s beautiful Crystal Beach. The home is immaculately designed in an upscale nautical theme and is filled with every amenity you can think of—large private pool, chef’s kitchen, firepit, gas grill, and numerous other entertaining spaces.

The home comfortably sleeps 17+ with 3000 square feet, 5 bedrooms, and 4.5 bathrooms—there’s room for the whole and extended family!

A calming color palette, open concept, and modern design will invite you inside the second you step across the massive front porch and open the front door of this unique beachside home. You’ll immediately notice that every aspect has been thoughtfully designed for your ultimate comfort and enjoyment and to ensure the ease and convenience of your vacation. Stone flooring runs throughout the main level, bringing cohesiveness to the space.

The chefs in the family will likely gravitate to the bright, modern kitchen. High-end stainless steel appliances, all the cooking essentials, and endless quartz countertops make preparing an elaborate meal a breeze. You’ll also find a fully-stocked coffee station (essential before your day of exploring the best part of Destin). The living room is immediately adjacent to the kitchen, so you can remain in the action while you cook or just grab a snack or a drink. Once the food is ready, you can dine at the shiplap-wrapped peninsula/breakfast bar that seats six, or the dining table with a gorgeous chandelier overhead that seats at least 10. (There are also plenty of outdoor dining areas, but we’ll get to that!)

The living room comes with a large, plush sectional, gorgeous accents, and a refined boho flair. The large flatscreen smart TV is mounted above the gas fireplace on a shiplap accent wall. It’s the perfect spot to settle in with a favorite beverage for movie or game night after a day on the beach.

Just off the living room, French doors open to the pièce de résistance—the backyard. With a large private pool (with optional heating), a wood burning fire pit built into a lovely stone patio and surrounded by Adirondack chairs, a propane grill, comfortable lounge chairs, and two separate dining areas on a large deck, you could spend your entire vacation there and be totally content. String lights overhead give the space a stunning nighttime ambiance, but day or night, it has a fun and leisurely vibe that makes it easy for family and friends to reconnect.

There’s also a game room just off the main level. On nice days, open the garage door and let in the fresh air while you play ping pong, foosball or play games on the Ultimate Arcade (300 Games). Catch your favorite sports team on the large, mounted flatscreen smart TV. There’s also a fridge in the room for easy access to drinks, and a pub table for spectators or snack breaks. There are truly so many spaces to make memories with those you love!

Upstairs was made for rest and serenity. Each of the five bedrooms is spacious, immensely comfortable, and beautifully designed, but the master suite takes the crown as a true sanctuary. A king bed with premium linens (which you’ll find on all of the beds), a seating area (with a pull-out double bed) and office nook, French door access to the side deck, and the master bathroom are just a few highlights. After an evening in this room, you’ll be refreshed and ready for another active day, and you’ll probably want to sleep in. In the master bathroom, you’ll find a high-end double vanity, a soaker tub, and a separate stand-up shower.

The remaining bedrooms fit plenty of sleeping space and storage into comfortable layouts that allow for everyone to spread out.
Guest Bedroom 2: 1 king bed
Guest Bedroom 3: 1 double bed/2 single beds (bunks)
Guest Bedroom 4: 1 king bed and 1 queen bed/1 double bed/1 single bed (bunks)
Guest Bedroom 5: 1 king bed, 6 single beds (bunks)

The home’s four and a half bathrooms come with hotel-quality soaps and towels, and ensure everyone has plenty of space to get ready for a day or night out.Guest accessGuest will have access to the entire home.Other things to noteDue to our cleaner's schedule and guest check out times we are typically unable to accommodate an early check-in or late check-out.

GOLF CART:
If you are interested in renting a golf cart during your stay we have a 6 Seater Electric Lifted cart available to rent. Golf carts make it super easy and fun to get around - explore the area in style with the many beach spots and restaurants along Scenic Hwy 98 including near by Destin Commons! As a valued guest of Stingray Getaway we can offer you a discounted rate and the convenience of it being available on property upon your arrival!
Please contact us if you are interested in having this fun amenity available during your stay.

BEACH SERVICE (1 March thru 31 October):

Your reservation includes exclusive Happy Days Beach Service (two chairs and umbrella on Crystal Beach at Barracuda St Access).

PARKING:
There is plenty of parking for 3 full size or 3-4 full to mid-size vehicles in the driveway (no more than four vehicles are permitted). We recommend you carpool to bring the minimum number of vehicles possible, as Destin gets very busy in the summer. NO parking on the grass, streets, or sidewalks. Any illegally parked cars are subject to fines and towing. Any fines/towing fees are the sole responsibility of the vehicle owner. Our neighborhood does not permit trailers of any kind.

POOL:
Guests must request that the pool be heated before arrival. * Pool heating is a minimum of $300 per week unless noted as free during your stay. Payment must be received within 48 hours after booking.


IMPORTANT NOTE:
- Absolutely no animals of any kind no exceptions.
- Please understand, we are in close proximity to open areas, the beach, and Henderson Beach State Park. You might see or encounter wildlife while in our home or neighborhood, including, but not limited to: lizards, raccoon, opossums, birds, bees, wasps, mosquitoes, spiders, ants, crickets, palmetto bugs, tree roaches, rolly pollies, and silver fish to name a few. These creatures reside in nature, and we have no control over them. We do spray in and around the home regularly to reduce incidences of bugs. However, we cannot control mother nature, and therefore, please do not request a refund if you encounter her business during your stay.

If I could give it 100 stars, I would!!    Nov 01, 2022

review star



This home was even more beautiful in person than in pictures. The back yard was perfect for kids completely stocked with pool and beach toys and totally fenced I so the littles couldn’t wander. The kitchen was completely stocked with anything you could have wanted. An air fryer, blender, coffee makers, instapot...I could go on and on. The beach was just a minutes walk away or quick golf cart ride. Close to stores and restaurants. This will definitely be a home we will plan our dates around to stay in the next time we travel to Destin. Evan was a wonderful communicator and was always responsive with anything we needed.

I frequently use this site and had given up on great properties after inaccuracies being shared for listings. However, this property is exactly like what’s offered in the listing. Not to mention the amazing communication with the owners. It is surely worth the price!! If I could use the owner of this property for each stay, I would. My family is still truly blown away and saddened vacation ended so soon.

There are tons of things to do in the home and sleep arrangements seem endless. We decided to rent the golf cart top which is fun for short trips.

The house is gorgeous and met all of our specifications    Aug 01, 2022

review star



Everything was perfect from check-in to check-out. House was clean, owner was always available, and really thought of every amenity to make the stay as great as it could be. Portable batteries, chargers, beach & swim gear, really we just needed to bring our beach towels. A variety of comfortable beds and plenty of bedroom space for the kids to spread out. Very accommodating for two families with the in-law like set-up over the garage. We will definitely be looking to come back next year!

The pictures of this beautiful home don’t give it the justification it deserves    Aug 01, 2022

This house is gorgeous and by far the most fully stocked of any place my family has stayed in. The communication with Evan is second to none. He makes you feel as your comfort and happiness in his home is the most important part of the stay. The short walk to the less crowded beach is great. Not to mention there is 2 chairs and an umbrella reserved already with the house. We opted for the golf cart and it was waiting at the house fully charged when we arrived.

The proximity to the beach was great, the neighborhood was really nice, and we loved the outdoor space in the backyard! The various rooms accommodated our group great and could have slept many more! The house was well kept, and Evan was very responsive and accommodating! Would definitely stay here again!

This home has everything! Great location! Great amenities! From the time of booking until the time of checkout and beyond Evan (and Tammi) were amazing hosts. They went above and beyond to make sure everything was in order for our stay. The pictures does not do this home any justice. It's amazing! Close proximity to the beach and shops. Access to a golf cart. FULLY STOCKED kitchen beyond any vacation home we have every stayed. We will definitely stay again!

This was an amazing trip- largely because of this place.    Jun 01, 2022

 It is a beautiful place and we would definitely go back again. Not only is the house beautiful and well-appointed and equipped, but the pool, backyard, fire pit, game room, porches and balconies put this stay over the top for us. The very short walk to the beach was great and having the beach chairs reserved was wonderful. Close to everything!

Thanks! We had a wonderful time relaxing in the Stingray property.    Jun 01, 2022

The house is modern, beautiful, clean & has plenty of beds. We have our elderly parents with us. They liked the decent master bedroom very much. We enjoyed spending time together in the backyard at the swimming pool, BBQ grilling and having dinner on the deck the most.

The rental golf cart was very convenient and fun to ride around even though the beach just few minutes away to walk 😄

Evan was nice to work with. Tammi and Mike were very responsive.

Beautifully appointed, spacious home that is perfect for families! This home is close to everything-restaurants, groceries and beach! One of our family members said, “Luxurious!” and another noted the very comfortable beds! Kitchen is large (food prep) and stocked with everything you need and more! The house was so clean and had everything we needed. Great furniture. This property is my new favorite. Would definitely stay there again.

We had one snag where there was stained linen on the master bed and he had the cleaning team to come and replace the linens immediately! He also refunded some money for the inconvenience.
That one detail did not take away from the cleanliness of the home overall. Everything was nice and the kitchen had all of the amenities stocked to prepare any meal.
The rooms have adequate beds and smart televisions- convenient for the rainy days because we spent most of our time outback.
The outdoor backyard area with the pool and fire pit were a treat as well! Not to mention the grill that was also provided.
The family loved it…there was also a wagon at the property that we used to take our beach accessories over to the beach. The beach is super close and just a quick walk a block over. The home is also very close to shopping and other activities. I highly recommend staying at the Stingray property!

Absolutely Amazing !    Apr 28, 2022

review star


We had 16 stay comfortably in this beautiful vacay home. Everything you could possibly need was available for use. Pool and beach supplies, kitchen pots, pans, etc… The layout of the home allows you to be with the crowd or get away and have your own space. The back yard is Amazing and the perfect spot for entertaining. There is a chair that sits on the porch connected to the master , hands down the best spot to slip away for a nap. Jus overall an Amazing Home … you will be in Awe!!! The host Ed and greeter Tiffany are Amazing as well. Great communication, they checked in on us and even recommended a spot to rent golf carts that drop them to your front door… can’t wait to book again .

Best rental experience ever!    Apr 01, 2022

review star


We take a large family group on a trip a couple times a year, at least. This is by far the absolute best experience we have EVER had with a rental property! It was exciting to have such a good experience. The hosts and people we encountered in relation to the rental property and the community we were in were all amazing. The hosts were communicative, helpful, caring and we truly felt welcomed and we felt their genuine good will for us to have a great stay.

The property itself was GREAT; by far the best property we have stayed in for a family trip. Large, clean, amenities were great, and located in a good area. It is good to walk in to a home and have no issues with the cleanliness, things missing, televisions working, etc.

Everything was all wonderful and we look forward to booking this same space, again.
