The home was exactly as described. We had a short walk to the beach which was perfect! We had more than enough room for our group of 13! Ocean Reef was easy to work with, and super accommodating. One thing i will say, bring extra silverware with you! That is our single complaint. With that said, we are already discussing booking this property next year!

The house is big enough for a large group and the rooms were really clean and beautiful and each one has its own bathroom which is amazing. The pool was very clean and refreshing and the back yard was alot of room.
Problems:
*When we got to the house the floors on the bottom level looked clean but after we had all walked barefoot on them for an hour our feet were black. We ended up buying a wet swiffer the next day to clean it .
*The BBQ grill when we got there was unusable, one of the handles was actually broken off and the burner was stuck in the on position. The sink in the upstairs bathroom was basically totally clogged. (The good thing is that I contacted the company that runs it that night and they sent someone the next morning who remedied those two things)
*The carpet on the stairs is super ratty, the sound system upstairs was nice but was not hooked up right so only one of the speakers worked.
*And then little things like there was a small hole in the wall going up the stairs from someone of something running into it and the toilet paper holders were barely hanging on in a couple of bathrooms.
*There were barely any spoons for a big house like that so we ended up going to buy new ones and also bought a frying pan because they had about 3 but were so scratched up we were nervous about using them.
All and all the house is in a great location and near the beach so we had an amazing time. The house just needs some TLC and it would be a 5/5.

This property was clean, cozy, and comfortable, it was very spacious for everyone to have their on area. Only downside is that they really need to switch out the jean couch for a new one, that couch has to go. Overall everyone in my family truly enjoyed their stay and we will definitely stay there again. Plus it was a close walk to the beach.
4.0
We stayed at Beach Basket with multiple families for our Spring Break and had a great time.
The positives
- the backyard is at the top of the list - huge pool, patio, tons of space and a basketball court. Was so awesome to have and we lived out there when not at the beach.
- lots of space inside with each room having a bathroom
- lower floor (kitchen family room) was spacious too
- decks on both side
- upstairs movie room was fun for kids to have as their space too
- location - 3-4 minute walk to the beach and close to shopping (Whole Foods, Publix, etc..)
A few negatives:
- Needs some updates (worn-out carpet, baseboards chipping, paint refresh) - you can tell it's a spot for larger groups and gets a lot of wear and tear. With a group of teens with us, it didn't bother us but if you are looking for super fancy or luxury, this isn't it.
- Supplies like silverware - there wasn't enough forks, spoons and knives for what the house sleeps which seems odd. Also could use a few basics - broom, more kitchen towels. We had to go buy those. We knew we had to supply things like soap, etc.. but silverware and other household items should be there.
It's a great spot for a larger group looking to be close to the beach and have fun all together. We'd rent it again!

We had additional requests to join us and had to find something for everyone. This house did not disappoint. Interior provided great space, plus the movie room was great. my favorite area was the pool, nice seating and good size pool.

Over great place. Clean and open. Good response from owner. Minor inconveniences include only 2 teaspoons for our party of 17 and only 3 coffee mugs and no cookie sheets. We would stay there again.

Beautiful clean home that exceeded my expectations! The property managers communicated very well during the planning process. We were able to check in early because the property was ready ahead of schedule. If we ever come back to Destin, we would definitely stay here again.

Proโs/Conโs-
Conโs-
โโโโโ
-Dirty bathroom sink areas, there was old toothpaste residue on the counters.
-pool was dirty upon arrival
-outside is NOT maintained
-there was a used bandaid and an empty beer can left next to the pool upon arrival. (Extremely grossed out by the used bandaid.)
-Outdoor furniture is rusted and broken
-roaches of all sizes including baby ones in multiple areas of the house
-couches looked dirty/dingey
-maintenance guys randomly showed up with no notice. Just strolled into the backyard as we were back there. Cigarette hanging out of their mouth..super professional. They also took the leaf blower and blew everything into the pool
-balcony banister had bars missing
-balcony deck had no furniture on it
-photos on website are not updated.
-beds were all broken underneath
-bunk beds were broken
-Our feet and socks were black after walking on the floors the first day. So cleaning is subpar to say the least.
-Washer has mold and has not been cleaned. Smells moldy.
Proโs-
-neighborhood was safe and enjoyable.
-Had plenty of room. Loved that every room had its own bathroom.
-House smelled good upon arrival.
-Short walk to the beach
-Contactless & keyless entry
All in all- we will definitely come back to visit Destin. Itโs an amazing area, perfect for families..beaches are amazing. I donโt think Iโll stay in this house again and I wouldnโt recommend this house to anyone I knew personally. Iโve stayed in houses like this before on vacation and this was by far the dirtiest, and the outside was really disappointing by how under maintained it was. For the amount you pay- you expect better inside and outside. But this was not the case with this house.

The house was very clean. The outside area has not been recently cleaned along the gangway between homes. The beds were very comfortable with 6 bedrooms and 6 bathrooms. I would stay here again!

We vacation in Destin regularly and have usually had great properties that lived up to their photos & listing details. It does not appear that the owner has maintained the property in sometime. While the property manager did respond to some of our concerns (including replacing the unusable grill and providing us a small refund)...they could not fix many of the issues that were a result of lack of maintenance. The exterior pool/basketball area was a mess. The furniture was damaged, rusty or missing. The basketball court only had one hoop that was broken/crooked. The flower beds hadn't been mulched in at least a couple of years and so the yard was more dirt than anything else. There was no furniture on any of the porches/balconies. The coaches were so stained that we covered them in sheets just to use them during our stay. Exhaust fans don't work in all but one bathroom. Lastly the cleaning was subpar at best.
The location is great but the owner needs to maintain the property or update the pictures/listing to give renters a true sense of what they're getting.

We had my husband and I, my parents our oldest son, wife their 2 kids, and our daughter and her husband. It was perfect for our family as everyone had their own bathroom with King bedroom and the kids had a bunk room (we had an extra bunk room). The pool and basketball court were awesome for backyard fun. The property needs cleaning up (dead leaves all around that kept blowing in the pool). Nice outdoor seating. We spent a lot of time in the backyard. There is an outdoor shower to rinse sand off toys, feet etc. The kitchen is nice but, not well equipped. (No toaster) I would suggest bringing your own knife for cutting veggies etc. (We ate at the house a lot because of our large group and the restaurants were slammed with so many people in Destin). There is a regular coffee pot and a Kuerig which work great! There is a large theatre room area on the landing upstairs that is very nice. There are a lot of remotes so thankfully our kids figured it out for the grandkids. There are TVs in all rooms but, not all have cable boxes and there are wires everywhere. We did rent a golf cart to shuttle my parents, kids and stuff to the beach. Thereโs not a lot of parking at the beach entrance. All in all this is a great house for multiple couples and kids. We have been vacationing in this area for 22+ years and love it.

We loved Beach Basket for our family vacation!! We had both daughters and their families plus a couple of teenage buddies!! Everyone had their own spot and lots of room to move around. The pool was a huge hit with everyone as well as the x-box and the theater room upstairs. The beach was a very easy walk and we spent lots of time there.

We came to Destin with another family and had a great time at the Beach basket. Four adults and four teenage boys. Loved the pool and basketball court. The boys each had a room to themselves upstairs and loved the XBox and huge projector screen. We loved the heated pool! The only drawbacks were that we never could get the dishwasher to work. The lawn furniture was rusting out and one chair was broken along with the table umbrella. What a great deal, location and house! It was perfect for our group.

Beach Basket 2020
This property is close to the beach; a little too far to walk with all your gear, but a super quick drive. The kitchen is well stocked with utensils and cooking items. The house is a good size for a large group.
The back yard area needs attention: the fence slats are broken, the pool filter is not working properly, leaving the water murky and stagnant, and patio furniture is worn and a chair is broken. We had to call maintenance to replace the TV in an upstairs bedroom. Trash was full when we arrived and a first floor bedroom had sand in the bed. Decent house but cleanliness and better preparation for guests is needed.
