About the owner: Welcome to Gulf Breeze Vacations! We have three 5b beach houses that are steps to the ocean: Southern Sands, Ocean Retreat Villa & Beach Walk Retreat.

I'm Jan - lover of food, travel, exercise and meeting new people. I am a mom of 22 year old twins and 2 cats. I am originally from the sound, then moved to Atlanta; and now I spend most of my time in Destin.
I look forward to sharing our beach house with you and your family/friends! Our goal is for you to have a memorable vacation! If it is your first time to Destin, we can assist you.

Why this property? The pool, spa and lanai are all amazing!

Guestbook comments from the host:

My wife and I were joined by our three adult kids, their spouses and our 7 grandkids (all 9 and under). The house was very spacious and clean. Plenty of living, eating and sleeping space. Location was perfect. Short two minute walk to the beach and a five minute drive to grocery stores, restaurants and gas stations. The area was very safe and clean. The pool was also perfect. Large enough for multiple people with steps and shallow platform for kids to play. Also had an attached jacuzzi. The pool was perfect for young kids and adults. Highly recommend!!! We are planning our next stay.


Jun 2024

I think the key points about this home are that it's super close to the beach with a couple different places to access it easily. I had to talk to Jan on a couple occasions through text and phone call and she was quick, kind, and super helpful. The home is rated for 14 people and that's exactly how many we had (4 families) and the home was more than accommodating. && Finally the pool...it was amazing. We literally never left the beach or pool the whole time we were there!! (Other pools in this area were not near as big or as nice.)


May 2024

We’ve been vacationing on the Florida coast for over 20 years. We have found our forever house in which to stay. Everything, and I mean everything, has been thought out so perfectly. It is everything the description indicates - and so much more. The pool and spa are amazing. I wish I could have hugged the owners goodbye before we left. It was a wonderful experience!

We are a group of 7 adults who regularly travel and stay at rental homes. The group agreed that this home is one of the best we’ve stayed at. The outdoor pool area is well thought out and we spent many hours out there. The layout of the home with 3 masters with en suites on the main level is great for the early risers. The walk to the beach is quick and easy; we went down nightly for sunset walks! Highly recommend, we would definitely stay again.


Apr 2024

Our family of 9 get together once a year so we put high priority on location, accommodations and convenience. This home scored 10 on all counts. Plenty of sleeping options, bathrooms, sitting areas and can not emphasize enough the AMAZING pool/hot tub! Convenient location to beaches and restaurants. This beach house will keep you coming back…enjoy!


Jun 2023

We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home. It was spectacular. Eleven of us (seven parents, four HS senior boys) had all the space we needed and the house was perfect. The home is less than a five minute walk to the beach. The pool and hot tub are huge. The following is a direct quote from one of the other parents in my group... "It was perfect. We absolutely LOVED the house!!! The pool was AMAZING...the best one we have had while on a vacation. It was so nice that they had a basket of towels to use. We would for sure recommend this home to others that would want to stay in Destin." Additionally, the owner was super responsive. She called me two nights before we arrived to answer any questions I had and promptly replied to the texts I sent during our stay. Five Stars All Around.

This house and area was perfect for our "hurrication" in the aftermath of Hurricane Ida while we awaited getting our power back at home. It was close enough to the beach to walk, close enough to Camilles to walk to breakfast or dinner, and close to Destin Commons to do shopping anytme. Would highly recommend! The house was cute and big enough for our family and visiting friends to have space. Each bedroom had a tv and great assortment of games in the den. The host was quick with replies and I am sure if we would have had any issues during the week, she would have been on top of it. Thanks again Jan for letting us rent!

Perfect home for our family!

This home was perfect for our family of 10! The house had all the amenities and a fully stocked kitchen for cooking needs. Everyone really enjoyed the hot tub and heated pool. The backyard was a hit in the evenings after a day at the beach. The covered lanai with all the seating around the pool was amazing. The golf cart came in handy for trips to the beach, to the Crab Shack or Pompano Joe’s. I really can’t say enough good things about this home. We had a perfect week in Destin. Thank you Jan for your hospitality! We hope to be back again next year if it works out for us! Thank you!
