The Lily Pad, Destin, Florida Vacation Rental by Owner

Enjoy the splendor of the private pool and lounging deck, walk to Seaside, take a short stroll to the beach, take a tour on one of the cruising bikes, try your hand at ping pong, or just relax on one of several cozy porches.

Your beach vacation will certainly "make a splash” of memories when you jump into THE LILY PAD offering of this luxurious rental in Old Seagrove. As well as being close to the aquamarine waters of the Gulf of Mexico and sugar-white sandy beach, another great feature of this five-bedroom home that sleeps 16 is the pool can be heated during the cooler months.

The first floor of this stunning, craftsman-style, two-story beauty provides a feast for the eyes, with exposed beams, crystal chandeliers, and a breathtaking open concept of neutral colors. The kitchen is a foodie’s dream, with luxurious marble countertops and glistening stainless steel appliances, including a natural gas stove. The butler’s pantry has a wine cooler and additional counter space for various entertainment options. There’s even a second, full-size refrigerator just inside the mudroom with cubbies for additional storage. Seating options include a cozy breakfast nook, bar-top stools, and a formal dining area. Also, alfresco options are available on the back porch, including a natural gas grill.

The living space has two charming window seats, perfect for curling up with a book or observing coastal nature. Enjoy the large, flat-screen TV while relaxing on one of the couches or chairs that provide plenty of room for all to unwind. The beautiful indoor fireplace is meant for visual enjoyment only and is not intended for guest use.

Also on the first floor is a primary bedroom with a king bed and ensuite bathroom. There’s a luxurious walk-in shower and double vanities; plus, all the home’s bathrooms have exquisite tile features.

The second floor provides a retreat all its own with three king bedrooms, all with ensuite bathrooms. Each bedroom has balcony access to enjoy the natural landscaping that surrounds the property. Families staying on the second floor will enjoy the thoughtfully provided wet bar and laundry area. And the younger set will love having their own private space with two sets of built-in, full-size bunk beds, a flat-screen TV, and an adjoining bathroom.

Take advantage of the bikes provided to cruise along 30A in Old Seagrove. You are also within a quick walk to Seaside, where you’ll find numerous restaurants and shopping! No detail has been overlooked in making this your most enjoyable vacation ever!
