Our Southern Destinations beach house was perfect for our family of 10 plus 2 dogs. The kids loved the pool, and it was great to have a 2 minute walk to the beach. The game room was great for the kids. Having a large driveway was perfect for 3 vehicles and a boat trailer. Great time!

My main priority when finding a VRBO home is cleanliness. I am willing to pay a higher rate for a clean space. This home was immaculate! The owners take great care of this home. We immediately felt at home when we walked through the door. The house was spacious and beautiful and the outside space was well equipped with a heated pool, outdoor furniture, and outside refrigerator. The communication before our stay was always quick and courteous. The location is perfect as it is just a short 1/4 block walk to a main access point to the beautiful beach. I would highly recommend this 5 star property.

Exactly as described. Short walk to the beach and close to all area attractions. Excellent backyard with a refreshing pool that was great to relax in after a day out in the sun.

We enjoyed our stay at this home!! The house is very spacious. I liked how well lit the home is, not dark at all like some homes. I really loved the open concept for the kitchen, dining table and living area. We were able to all sit around play cards and communicate with those not playing. Kids loved the pool and the little game room. Each room was spacious as well. This is a well kept home and everything was really nice. Our family would most definitely hope to rent again in the future!! The only recommendation for the owners is to maybe deep wash the towles. My wife has a nose for smell and thought they had the smell to them. Other than that the home was perfect for or family vacation. Thank you for having such a beautiful home.

Very nice accommodations, with close beach access. Good pool and well taken care of. My only suggestion and this is a minor point, would be to have more dishwasher tablets (only 2 provided) trash bags and washing detergent. (None provided).

In order to stay at this rental, you are required to sign a lot of paperwork beforehand, and it made it feel like we were walking on eggshells while at the house. I remember stating to my husband that it felt like we couldn’t fully relax and enjoy the space, and ironically, I just received a claim for a broken nightstand glass from the insurance company you are required to elect prior to renting. (We rented 2 weeks ago.) Had we actually broken something, it wouldn’t bother me that a claim was made and we would have had the courtesy to report it ourselves, but I am 100% sure we left the house in almost unused condition given that my kids were in pack n plays/cots and we ended up having to leave a night early due to my husband’s return to work. The renters never communicated or asked about the “bedside table glass,” so I’m not sure what the alleged damage is.
That said, we loved having all three bedrooms on the same floor. The pool was clean and there were plenty of towels to use at the house and the beach. You cannot beat the location.

We just left this absolutely beautiful house! We had for sure, a 5* stay! The house was immaculate, very updated, and beautiful decor throughout. The patio/pool in the back was so comfortable and inviting. Plenty of chairs, tables and the pool was sparkling and so clean. The party lights around the back area at night added a nice touch, great ambience! We loved the fact that the house was about a 5 minute walk to the beach and the house supplied beach chairs, an umbrella and a wagon to bring everything to the beach. PERFECT location, PERFECT house in every way! The owners thought of everything to make sure we had a very comfortable stay. So nice to have a pretty washer and dryer to use also! Thank you to the management team too! Sandy was so helpful and was happy to remove the canopy covering the pool since we are sun lovers! Amanda was very helpful when our coffeemaker wasn’t working right. She brought a brand new coffeemaker to us within about 30 minutes. Both ladies were really on it, resolving our requests quickly and efficiently. A HUGE thank you to Gerald and Kathy for allowing us to enjoy their really special home! We enjoyed our stay so much and hope to visit again soon. Our stay will certainly be to Southern Destination our next trip to SPI!

The house was great and we loved the location. There were a lot of rules to try and remember, especially while on vacation, but we did our best. We loved the short walk to the beach and everyone enjoyed sitting out by the nice pool. We also liked how much space there was and my family felt comfortable in the house.

My wife & I planned a family vacation with our adult children & grandchildren. The facilities could not have been better! Beautiful home and the grandkids spent most of their waking hours in the pool. Very clean, nice floor plan allowed for family time and privacy when needed. Perfect for our group of 13.

The property is nice and met our needs. However, the pre-check-in is a royal pain, and in my opinion, unnecessary!!! We also were not told about this until we had booked and paid! We had to list the names and ages of every occupant! And complete details about our vehicles! Also, a list of a hundred things you can be charged for at the owner’s discretion! Because of this pettiness we will not be renting this home again! By the way, there appears to be an ongoing water problem in the game room ceiling, a crack in the pool decking, and a sloppy tile repair in the master bath.

The entire family had a great time. The house was very cozy, even with 16 people. Insanely close to the beach, clean house, and good communication with the hosts. Will definitely be back for big family beach days.

Family fun
Southern Destination was a fantastic experience! My family and I enjoyed all the amenities the property offered. The beach was an easy walk across the street. We also enjoyed pool time and grilling for dinner. You could see fireworks from the front top balcony which was a bonus because we didn’t have to leave the property and get stuck in the July 4th traffic. I highly recommend Southern Destination or a fun family getaway.
