Our Christmas in July at Miramar Beach on Ruth Street was an amazing family gathering. The home was extremely clean and had everything imaginable for us to use. The outside pool and barbecue area was very spacious. The golf cart was so handy to get around the beach area. The bedrooms, baths, laundry room, and kitchen and living room was very nice. We will definitely go back to this location..

"Thank you so much for such a great review! We are so happy that you and your family enjoyed everything the home and our area has to offer. We look forward to having you back as our guests!Your Team at Travel Life Vacations"
Beautiful home, very clean and private
This was by far the nicest home we’ve stayed in on the Emerald Coast. The property is brand new, had lots of space for everyone to spread out, and we did not expect it to be in such a nice, quiet (gated) community. It was close to the Outlets and lots of nice restaurants. We all agreed that The Barnacle would be our families yearly vacation spot from now on.

Our Favorite Beach House - We Will Book Again!
Our family vacations in Destin every year, so we know what to look for in a vacay rental. This was our first time staying in the Frangista Beach area. I got to tell you... It's Miramar Beach's best kept secret. The house is located right off the beach road, tucked back into a gated community. If you have kids, you'll love this neighborhood. It's just off the beaten path to experience a private quiet night in the pool, but close enough to make a golf cart run for coffee - or - a sunset session with the fam. The pool is perfectly heated (optional add-on), which is nice for late spring and cool nights. Plenty of seating around the pool, and a great quality BBQ. Everything is brand new. This house was just built! We shared the house with 4 families w/ kids, and had plenty of room and privacy for all. For a new home, the attention to detail was awesome. We love the cape cod beach vibe they went for. It feels like an Imagineer from Disney helped with the decorating. We like our vacation homes to be an experience. This one delivered. Memory foam mattresses in every room, really cool built in bunk beds on the 3rd floor (not those squeaky cheap things everyone has), and a brand new electric 6 seater golf cart w/ paddle board. Also, Josh (the owner) and his helper Will checked in on us a few times that week too. Super nice and responsive to any questions we had. The list goes on... Stop reading my review, and book it before someone else does. Tell 'em Stan sent ya!
