About the owner: Destin Beachfront 4 BR 4 BA: I'm a retired school librarian.
Why this property? Destin Beachfront 4 BR 4 BA: I chose our place in Destin because of the beautiful white sand beach and emerald water in front of the house. I had looked at other places in Destin and found the water to be cloudy. It's also within driving distance of where I live. We're also close to Wine, Jazz, Seafood, Mullet, and Art Festivals and the Fishing Rodeo - all events, which I enjoy and anticipate yearly.

Steven S.Perfect Family Stay
This was the perfect condo for our family to relax and unwind. There was plenty of space for all 10 of us (6 adults, two 8 year olds, an infant and Ottis our black lab). The unit was immaculate! The kitchen was just the right size and the kitchen table seated the entire family for each meal and for game time. Wifi was accessible on all floors for those that needed it and having Netflix provided for some great family movie nights.And then there was the view, it was breathtaking! Three floors all with balconies was perfect for us. A few steps down the stairs and any beach chairs we needed, umbrella, boogie boards and more were provided for us to use with direct beach access just a few steps away. We had great beach time and the water was perfect for us, even in January.Our stay was issue free and Lois personally saw to it that we well informed about all details prior to our stay and made sure everything was perfect upon our arrival. When we visit the Destin area again, we will definitely be staying here again.

Owner response
Steven and his family were perfect guests. When they left, the house looked as if they had cleaned it. We are so appreciative of our guests and work very hard to insure they have a nice house to enjoy. Vacation time is short and precious. Thank you, Steven, for taking the time to post your Review.
Ryan & Maria A.Superb Family-Friendly & Pet-Friendly, Beach-Front Condo!
We could not ask for a better location! Right on the beach, all 3 floors with stunning views of the powdery white sand beach, the gorgeous blue ocean and the breathtaking sunsets! We are repeat renters and literally come every year because this is such a fantastic setting to kick back, relax with our family, including our Bengal cat, and take a break from the stresses of daily life. Brisk morning walks are a breeze, soaking in the sun, the cool breeze and the relaxing sounds of the gentle ocean waves rolling into shore...We absolutely love this place and plan to continue to plan our 1-week getaway here.

Jessica P.Amazing Beach Vacation
Our family of 10 stayed at this wonderful 3 story condo over our fall break! We could not be more pleased. Lois was so easy to work with and was available 24/7. The house is stocked extremely well with everything you could imagine and the beach storage area is stocked with all kinds of boards, floats, sand toys and chairs! The house was spotless and there is plenty of towels, sheets and pillows!! The beach is just steps away and not crowded at all, as it is private with only your condo neighbors to share it with. We will be renting with Lois again in the near furture!!

Darla C.2019 Family Vacation at Miramar Beach!
I want to say a Big Thank You to Lois! She is the owner of the Sanddollar Townhome that we rented for our 2019 Family Vacation. Our family of 10 drove in from Texas to enjoy a week of fun and relaxation and that's exactly what we did. Lois's second home was wonderful. Clean and ready to go upon arrival. Plenty of sleeping and bathroom accommodations. A fully stocked kitchen with every dish and cooking utensil needed. The three decks/balcony's were fully furnished for relaxation with a grill. The storage room had every beach toy imaginable including a canopy and plenty of beach chairs. Just steps from the townhome straight to the white sand and turquoise water. It can't get any better than that! The beach was not over-crowded and we had some great neighbors! We had three vehicles (1 truck and 2 cars) - all three fit in the assigned parking space. We had a 3 minute walk to Pompano Joe's Restaurant for some of the best fish in the area. There is an ice cream shop and souvenir shop straight across the street and Alvin's Souvenir shop is one block down. You can sign up for a banana-boat ride right down the beach near Pompano Joe's. Such convenience is hard to come by at most places. Lois, the owner, is a delight to work with. She is very attentive to all your questions and needs and responds very quickly to all emails and phone calls. My family and I will definitely be renting from Lois for all of our future family vacations in Florida. Thank you, Lois for a fun and relaxing week at your beautiful Townhome at Miramar Beach! Darla C.

Daphne Jean M.Great house right on the beach and affordable
This is the 3rd time we have rented this home and it’s always clean and tidy and comfortable. Lois is very easy to work with and is easy to get a hold of if need be. This house is right on the beach and roomy and very affordable! I will definitely rent here again!

Lois T.Great location and view
We stayed here and it was perfect for our family. The location is right on the beach and close to good restaurants. Our kids enjoyed walking to the beach and back. In addition, we had our dog with us (a family member) which made our stay a lot more enjoyable.We'll definitely visit again.

Patricia S.Beachfront Paradise
After multiple trips to the beach at this location on Scenic Gulf Drive, the quality and standard of the property is still outstanding. The home was immaculate and beautifully furnished. From the appliances and kitchen gadgets for cooking (if desired) to the toys available for small children, everything that can make you feel at home was provided to make the experience that more memorable. Each trip to the beach has been better and better and I look forward to my family's next vacation there.

James S.Great family getaway!
Our 2 families had a great time here. It was in a perfect location with everything close, golf courses, shopping outlets and restaurants. We will definately be back, hard to beat walking out your door right onto a beautiful white sand beach with plenty of activities nearby. They take great care of the place and have everything you need. Nice to have a kitchen to cook in and have nearby restaurant options. Owners were very easy to deal with and they make sure you have an enjoyable visit. I give this place an 11 out of 10! Thanks again Lois.

Bill B.Wonderful Beach Vacation
Our family of 12 people and 2 small dogs stayed in this townhouse for the second consecutive year. It is so conveniently located and is directly on the beach. The owner, Lois, is very easy to work with and a very nice lady. Lois and her husband update the townhouse regularly and keep it well stocked. There is a storage area downstairs that is loaded with balls, floats, umbrellas, and other beach equipment. If you are looking for a place directly on the beach and a place that is not so crowded, this is the place for you. It is fabulous.

Rhonda M.Our Yearly Favorite Vacation Spot
It's that time again at our favorite vacation beach spot! It is so convenient to grocery stores, drug stores, outlet shopping, restaurants, leisurely activities to do, scooter rentals, parasailing (on the beach next to this property), souvenir shopping......,etc. Pampano Joe's is next door and one of our favorite restaurants in Destin. With it within a block away, if we are on the beach and just want to walk over and have lunch or dinner, what at better atmosphere than right on the beach, without getting all dressed up, not to mention dealing with traffic. This vacation spot is right on the beach , 3 stories with beautiful views! If we want to bring family or friends, it is very accommodating and sleeps 12 comfortably! The owner is extremely nice to work with and available for any questions or issues that might come up! She even allows pets which is one of the few vacation places that allows pets. Our family cat goes with us. Each year when we go, something new has been added or updated! It definitely has all the amenities and convenience of gadgets and small appliances, to an outdoor gas grill, to beach umbrellas, chairs, and sand toys. We love it here and highly recommend this home away from home vacation spot! Rhonda - 05/26/2018
