Charming Coastal Resort Cottage - Gated Private Beach Entrance

Bright, cozy and airy within the Maravilla gated beach resort. Lots of space, windows and light. Great for kids too with room for cribs. Walk to the beach with 2 pools, tennis courts, gym, basketball and clubhouse. On a non cut through road with low traffic, great if kids are out front. Close to everything ,about 340 yards or less than a five minute walk to the private beach entrance. Close shopping and restaurants near the Destin Commons and Silver Sands Outlet Mall. Fantastic place to experience the Emerald Coast. Welcome to pets and the home backs up to a large grassed field to walk them. Best of all private beach access to limit the crowds on the beach.

The location in Miravilla and the floor plan of this house are both great. The house is on a quiet street - not a lot of traffic going through - which is also nice. The mattresses in a couple of bedrooms need to be replaced but the hosts were very receptive to that feedback and I am sure they will address it. Overall a very nice stay.

Great Stay

Check in directions were super easy to follow. Neighborhood was lovely and close to the beach. Host was great at responding and communicating when needed. One major downfall was the internet being out the majority of the trip and it not being able to get fixed during our stay.

Wonderful experience!

The house was the perfect size for our group. It is walking distance to a beautiful beach. The house is clean and well maintained. The host is very communicative and helpful! I wish there were more plates and silverware - the house sleeps 12, but there are only enough dishes for 8. So make sure and bring paper plates and plasticware!

The house had a lot more room than I thought it would. I was pleasantly surprised. Great location. It was nice to have access to the private beach. It wasn’t near as crowded as the rest of the beach.

Perfect beach retreat

We stayed in this home prior to moving to the area. This house was perfectly located near the beach as well as other attractions for much-needed R&R before the big move. The property manager was amazing. Communication was swift and any questions were answered promptly. Our family of 6 plus our fur baby had a wonderful time.
