Acres Away @ Driftwood Townhomes, Destin, Florida Vacation Rental by Owner

Beautiful place ! Looks like something out of Southern Living Magazine. So Beautiful. So many special touches with fall decor. Thank you for the great communication. We loved the house

We had such a lovely time here! I cannot say enough good things about our stay. We were just a short walk from the pool, beach, and a few good restaurants. Jilenna is the best Airbnb host I've ever had. She was extremely proactive, messaging me multiple times throughout our stay to ensure we were satisfied. I would absolutely stay here again!

Stayed here for a cousins trip and to celebrate my sister getting married. This place was PERFECT! Plenty of room for everyone and so close to the beach. Lots to do near by and loved that we had a pool as well! Would recommend this place to anyone planning on visiting Destin!!!

Beautifully decorated, spacious, clean, comfortable beds. It was as shown in the pictures. Loved it!

We had a family vacation with 15 of us (8 adults, 7 kids) and Jilenna’s place was perfect! It was super clean, had quality furniture/bedding, and was truly just a short walk to the beach. The hosts were very responsive. We had a small issue with the ice maker not working, but the hosts offered to have maintenance come out asap (we just got bags of ice instead). The house is 3 stories with 2 washer/dryers, and plenty of space on the main floor for the entire family to hangout. All appliances etc were high quality and easy to find. Beautifully decorated too. Overall would highly recommend!

Nice. Clean. Spacious. Location is as advertised. Highly recommend. Beach access is a walk away. A must stay if you're visiting the Destin area.

Can't wait to come back!
We absolutely loved the home and will be back in the future.

Everything was great!
Easy access to the beach, and enjoyed having a small pool for our use. plenty of room for our group of 8!

Clean and beautiful! We absolutely loved our stay and can't wait to come back. The space was spacious and clean. Steps from the beach and a short distance to great shopping and dining!

Stunning!
Stunning house in walking distance to the beach! The place was more beautiful than the photos. Also easy to Uber downtown if you...

Me and my family loved this place!
Everything about this house screams amazing!!! Literally everything you see in the pictures is exactly what you get! I love it t..

This property was perfect for our family. We truly enjoyed our stay as we spent most of it in the townhouse. The owner provided all the basic necessities and more. This place was incredibly clean and well decorated. We even received a welcome card and placements for the Thanksgiving holiday. The elder family members had challenges with the stairs but it didn’t stop us from Al coming together in the family room each evening. Our only negative is that the owners had the thermostat locked so we couldn’t make any adjustments without calling for it to be unlocked. The good thing is they responded quickly and unlocked it. Al in all, we definitely recommend this property and would stay again.

Beautiful Home! Would stay again and again! Thank you! Everything was perfect!

It was a very clean and beautiful place. It was the best because it was close to the beach. I will make a reservation again next time.

We were so close to everything! We will definitely use this property again for future trips!!

Within walking distance to beach, but due to no side walks we decided to drive the 2 minutes! House came with an awesome wagon, beach chairs and inflatable tubes to use at the beach!! It was very clean and well stocked with cooking utensils. I recommend bringing extra toilet paper, paper towels, and trash bags— you’re given one for each room at check in. Overall perfect spot for a fun bachelorette trip!

We loved the place! Everything was very clean and a convenient location. We had a perfect vacation

Plenty of space. There were 11 of us and we never felt cramped. The master bath is out of this world. Walk to the beach was reasonable. We pulled a wagon with our tent. Public parking at beach so if you’re early, it’s a breeze to drive and park

The townhome was beautiful. We stayed there for our annual family vacation and let me tell you, the place is amazing. Very spacious, close to the beach , pool was never crowded , Everyone loved it.

This is a great house. Check in and out was so easy. It’s a short walk from the beach. And the beach wasn’t too crowded. There is an amazing bathroom on the top floor. The host let’s you know there are basic supplies when you arrive and you will have to get the rest (such as toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap)

Nice clean home exactly as shown. About a 5 minute walk to beach. I would definitely stay here again. Jilenna is a great host and very responsive.

This house was beautiful! Very clean and looked just like the listed pictures. A short walk to the beach and located at a perfect spot for going to either the boardwalk or Baytowne Wharf. Would 100% recommend.

Beautiful home! Nicely decorated! Clean and up to date!

The unit is more than expected 😍 love it will recommend it to others thanks again

Spacious, contemporary home within walking distance to the beach! Decent sized pool that we used almost daily. We had an issue with the doorlock, but they were easy to contact and fixed it appropriately! It was great having two sets of washer/dryers as well (one on ground level, and the other on the third floor.)

Great house and location!! Can accommodate a lot of people and beautiful inside!

Beautiful townhome. Very spacious and cozy. Great location near the beach, shopping centers, restaurants and almost anything you like 👍🏾

Thank you so much for the accommodations. It was truly appreciated. You were prompt and kind. We will be back and give recommendations!

My fiancé, our bridal party, and I stayed here for a long weekend to celebrate our wedding. We could not have asked for a better host, a more beautiful location, or better accommodations. Thank you for everything!

This home was amazing! It literally looks like the pictures and it was very clean! Short walk to the beach and a great location! Thanks, Jilenna!

The house looks just as good as the pictures. All the beds and sitting areas were super comfortable. The beach was a very manageable walk away and it was gorgeous. I traveled with my 2 daughters (6 and 8), husband, parents, 2 teenage nephews, 1 teenage niece and my brother. The house was more than spacious enough for all of us. We all very much enjoyed our stay.

We had such an amazing stay. The moment we walked into the house we could just smell how clean it was. Each room was very cute and had enough space for each couple. We are definitely coming back.

This house is beautiful! We were so excited once we saw all it had to offer!! We had no complaints, wish we had decided to stay and enjoy the house longer.

The house was very nice and clean. Great location, close to shopping center and restaurants. And the beach was a short walk.

The place was just as pictured, just beautiful! It was very clean and enough room for the whole family. They let us know what items we needed to bring and the book advised every thing we needed to know for check out. A lovely note and snacks were in the kitchen to greet us when we arrived.

The home was amazing

Great place to stay very beautiful decorated!

His space is beautifully decorated and will offer lots of room if you're traveling with multiple families and friends. We really enjoyed the fact that all 8 of us could fit around the dining table. Make sure you pack your own beach towels, laundry soap, dish soap and anything you need for cooking. There are no basic cooking supplies provided, although there are plenty of pans, utensils, and dishes. The property is about a 5-10 minute walk from the ocean depending on how fast you are able to go.

Amazing home, spacious, clean and near everything!!!! Will definitely stay here again!

This place was breathtaking ! Jilenna provided everything that you could need and more. We did not want to leave. We really enjoyed the place and it is super close to everything.

Awesome host! Great place for our bachelorette trip!

Beautiful place! It was spotless and a close walk to the beach! Jilenna was a great host! Strongly recommend staying here!

Pictures did it justice but when you step foot in this property it will take your breathe away!!!!

Great place, really enjoyed the stay

“Great place. Beautiful house, home away from home!!”

The property was very clean and help was reachable anytime we had questions. Great location and easy access to public beach.

Perfect house for our large family! Beautifully designed and furnished. Will definitely rent again!

Wonderful place to stay. We enjoyed every minute of our stay!

Wonderful place to stay. We enjoyed every minute of our stay!

This was a great location! Super clean, and well decorated!

Beautiful house. Very clean. Great layout with a lot of space. Community pool is a bit small. The walk to the public beach is around ten minutes. Also there are no sidewalks available to walk to the beach.

This property was truly a hidden gem!! My entire family raved about how beautifully decorated and spotless the condo was. It was well stocked with everything we needed and the owner even left little holiday goodies and extra treats for us. The welcome basket (wine, cheese, summer sausage, and handwritten note) was an awesome touch that meant so much to all of us! The condo was just a 5 minute walk from the beautiful white sandy beach and a close 5 minute drive from all of the shopping areas and eateries. This was my families first time to Destin, and we spent our Christmas holiday here and the property owners went out of their way to put up a small tree and lights and decorations and even left gifts for our smaller children. There were 14 of us in total and we all had more than enough room and space to move about comfortably. It's very spacious and modern and the master bathroom is like a honeymoon suite. :-) The pictures don't do it enough justice. There is even an outside grill. What more could you ask for? We are already looking into booking to go back for Spring Break!! Great property!!

My wife and her family are from Colombia. When they really like something they describe it as SPECTACULAR and this place is SPECTACULAR! We looked at lots of places online for our family gathering. Most places were were outdated with old furniture with no style. This place is new, very nicely furnished, clean and has an excellent floor plan for family gatherings or groups. The owners had a nice welcome basket and note. My wife thought she forgot to pack my Apple Watch. The owner and office were very helpful in searching the unit. We did find my watch packed in the suit case when we arrived home. We would definitely make this our place to stay for our family outings in Destin.

The house is beautiful and clean. The owner came by and checked to see if we needed anything. Lots of room. If there’s 5 couples someone will be sleeping on the twin bunk beds.

“Acres Away is an incredible home! From the moment we walked in, we were struck with the 'wow' factor this place provides. The home is still very new, extremely well-maintained, and meticulously clean. The furnishings are well-built (not cheap and flimsy) and sturdy, clean, and comfortable. The beds and linens are beautifully made and slept very well. Having the washer/dryer combo on both the first floor and the third floor was awesome- we washed a lot of our beach towels and it was nice to be able to get laundry done quickly. Speaking of the beach, it was a nice walk each day, and the wagon provided made it very easy to move all our things to the beach at one time. Although we were at the beach almost daily, we did spend one rainy day in the townhome playing cards, watching movies, and just having fun. There were 11 of us (6 adults and 5 teens) and we never felt like we were 'on top' of each other. The second floor living area is very large and has a main area with the TV, and behind it a cozy nook that became a popular sitting area to just hang out and chat with each other. There are TVs in all bedrooms and in the living room, and all were equipped with Roku (which was an extra touch). The Wi-Fi is very good and was easy to connect to our phones. The kitchen is VERY well stocked with dishes, pots, pans, utensils, silverware, and appliances. We ate at home every night but one, and had everything we needed for a variety of types of meal-prep. The outdoor gas grill was also used and worked well for us. The pantry space and empty cabinet spaces were great for all the food we bought and stocked while we were there. It was nice to be able to keep clean, uncluttered counters since we were able to have everything put away! Perhaps the best things about Acres Away are the special touches that the owners provided. When we arrived we were met with a goody basket, a handwritten note from the owner, and gourmet cupcakes freshly prepared for us. In fact,the owner dropped by to restock pans and drop off hot pads, and we had a wonderful chat with her and her husband about Destin and the area. It is evident from the level of attention to detail in this home that these owners care very much about making Acres Away the very best it can be and really want their visitors to have a great experience. Most certainly, when we return to the area our first choice for accommodations will be Acres Away!!”

I really enjoyed this town home. Very spacious and very clean. Not far from the beach or the pool. Everything on the listing was on point. The master bathroom was beautiful absolutely loved it. I have saved this on my favorites definitely would book this home again.

Great place for a family vacation

This is a beautiful home that is just a 5 min walk to the beach. Perfect rental for a large family or a multi family group. There was a very thoughtful hand written note along with refreshments upon our arrival. My family enjoyed every aspect and we will definitely book this place again.

Gorgeous home just a short walk from the beach. Tons of great restaurants nearby.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Acres Away! There was more than enough space for all of us! So clean, beautiful decorated, and comfortable!

Beautiful home, it was perfect for my family and I. Definitely 10 thumbs up.

Wonderful host! Awesome place! Close to the beach and stylish interior. Will come back again!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and recommend this house to anyone looking for a very nice and spacious place to stay.

Acres Away is a beautiful townhome located close to the beach. The unit was spotless, decorated beautifully, and the furnishings were luxurious. The owners were incredibly gracious and left the most thoughtful and personalized welcome basket. The kitchen was fully stocked, the beds were comfy, there were plenty of towels, and the bathrooms were furnished with numerous travel items such as extra toothbrushes and toothpaste. We had a fantastic stay and wouldn't hesitate to stay here again on a return trip to Miramar. Book your vacation at Acres Away. You won't regret it!

Clean and spacious house. The location is very good.

This home is stunning, just like the pictures.  It a perfect retreat for any family our group stay!

Clean and spacious house. The location is very good and want to return.  Working with a nice company made is easy for us.

Jilenna Parmeley's reply:

Thank you so much for the review. We look forward to helping you with your next vacation back to the beach.

Wow what a house! Our family were just there for our annual summer vacation. The kitchen was fully stocked. Plenty of towels in each bathroom. We hope to come back next year??

Remember to mention you are a past guest to receive the Happy Guest Perks as seen on our website at Forever Vacation Rentals.

Very beautifully decorated new townhouse. Love the thoughtful details by the host: extra toothbrushes/toothpastes, cupcakes for 6 kids in our group, and extra towels. Day of check-in the owners of the townhouse stopped by to say hello with a small gift. Great hospitality!”
