Mainsail Beach Cottage - Miramar Beach, FL, Miramar Beach, Florida Vacation Rental by Owner

We had such a lovely week at Blue Haven. It was close to the beach, but far enough away that we had some quiet and not the noise of spring breakers. There was plenty of room for our family of four and the setup was perfect for us. There is a pool just steps outside the patio door and, unfortunately, that was closed for repairs the week we were there so that was the only issue we ran into. Otherwise, we would highly recommend! I also cannot say enough about the owners. So kind and helpful throughout our entire stay. Made the whole process so easy! Thank you!

This was the perfect place for our family. My husband and I went with our son and his family and our daughter. Our granddaughters loved the bunk beds. This cottage is beautifully decorated and very clean. The kitchen is stocked well with anything you may need, by far the best we have ever encountered. Tim and Amy are awesome to work with. We will chose this place again next time we travel to the area.

Tim and Amy Jaynes's reply:

Thank you Rita! We loved hosting you and look forward to having you back again! Tim and Amy

We had a beautiful time, despite the rain! We enjoyed all the things that made this cottage personal. Amy and Tim were easy to work with and any questions were answered in a timely fashion. We will definitely be back to this quaint little piece of heaven! Thank y’all for allowing us in your paradise!

Our stay at the Blue Haven was more than we expected. Every thought that went into furnishing this cottage made our stay feel like we were at home, with exception of the gulf.... We never wanted for anything! It was stocked for a large family with children in mind. The hosts were nice and easy to get in touch with if we needed them. We will revisit again. Thank you Jaynes for an amazing rental!

We had a great week at Blue Haven! The owners were so easy to work with and so very hospitable. The cottage is lacking nothing for a big family - they have thought of everything you need to have a great vacation! It is convenient to all of our favorite places while being at the beach!

We had an amazing time at the Jaynes property! Everything was perfect! Thank you for sharing you home with us!

We got to stay an entire 2 weeks!!! June 3rd-17th. This was our best vacation in YEARS!!! This wonderful home and hosts are spectacular!!! Not enough words to express our happiness with this home away from home. Great communication from host at all times through the rental process and during our stay. Our Hadley Blair loved it the most she said and never wanted to leave. She also lost her first tooth sitting at the bar!! So many great places to eat and close by. We will definitely stay in touch and be booking next year’s vacation.

This place is a gem!! I can not say enough about how beautiful this place is! We felt right at home immediately and they had everything you could possible need to make your stay enjoyable !! Private beach access, fun places to eat in the area, and so relaxing !! Perfect vacation stay !! Owners are excellent! Highly recommend!

I selfishly debated keeping this gem to myself, but these fabulous hosts deserve recognition. Our experience started with excellent communication from the friendly owners. Tim & Amy quickly responded to my questions and enthusiastically shared info about the Destin area. We felt like guests of the family, not “renters”. They truly want you to enjoy their home and the attention to detail ensures that you will be equipped to relax, explore and play! The cottage is sparkling clean with gorgeous updates throughout. The cleaning standards are showcased throughout with WHITE linens, bedding and towels. The beds are comfortable with quality bedding for a dreamy sleep. The area has amazing restaurants featuring southern cuisine and fresh seafood. Our fav for dinner was Boshamps and the Donut Hole is a must for breakfast. The cottage kitchen is fabulously equipped for dinning in. As coffee enthusiasts (aka “addicts”) we enjoyed the Keurig and Mr. Coffee options in the cottage and the familiar menu of Starbucks just across the street. The beach, pools and other resort-like amenities are all close and easily accessible. Now, about Miramar Beach… We thought we had experienced “the best” on the islands of Turks & Caicos, but Miramar exceeded all of our past beach experiences! The pearly white sand is clean and soft. We didn’t see any of that smelly ocean debris you on the Pacific and Atlantic coast beaches. We felt like VIPs on the private beach decorated with green chairs and umbrellas and spent hours in the clear emerald waters. Photos do not adequately capture the magic of this beach! We are done searching for the perfect family vacation spot. (I booked our next stay before submitting this review!) Thank you, Jaynes family, for sharing your beach home in paradise with us!

I wish I could give 10 stars. I booked this house for my husband's 50th birthday vacation. It was so perfect. It was clean, stocked with everything we needed and so comfortable. The communication with the hosts was impeccable. We can't wait to go back!!!

What a wonderful escape to paradise! This cottage is so spacious and is beautiful with every amenity. It is perfectly updated, right by the heated pool, a 5 minute walk to one of the most beautiful beaches ever and close to the best restaurants and shops in the area. The inside feels like the home I wish I had and the outside is a magical haven. Stay here! You (and your family and friends) will not regret it!
