Area Attractions:
Frangista Beach is located less than 2 miles from the Silver Sands Outlet Centers and is convenient to both the action in Destin and Grand Boulevard Towne Center with incredible eateries, upscale shopping and a park with pop up fountains at its center.
Close by is Destin Commons, a beautifully landscaped, pedestrian-friendly area and a great family venue where children will love to play in the interactive water fountains. Also for the younger guests, a nautically/pirate themed outdoor playground features a 1,750 square foot soft play area with various creatures from the sea, slides, and a treasure chest! Destin Commons also has a mini-train for the kids. Destin Commons features over 75 shops and restaurants, including Godiva Chocolates, AMC Movie Theaters and Bass Pro Shop.
If you are near Miramar Beach, the snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Dolphin Reef, deployed in 2017. Located just 685 feet straight out from the Miramar Regional Public Beach access (by Pompano Joe's), it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Dolphin Reef is at a depth of 12-20 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

My family and I loved this beach house everything was near by and had all that we needed thank you for everything we will definitely be back next year!!!
This property is super cozy beach house it’s in a great location very short walk to the beach and many other things we really enjoyed the front porch 😊
We stayed here to celebrate our sons high school graduation. It was perfect for our family and a couple of his friends. The back patio area was a favorite for the kids! The location was great and we will definitely come back!
The place was exactly as described and made for a wonderful vacation. My kids loved the backyard and I enjoyed my coffee every morning on the front porch. Excellent house and excellent vacation!!
My family and I enjoyed this house. It was better than what we thought and saw through pictures. My family and I are thinking of making it our new little vacation rental go to place. Just satisfied with everything.
We had a really good time,the house makes you feel like home,we loved it if you have a small family its a perfect house we had a blast and will return a next time..only thing we didnt liked was the back porch because the neighbors could see everything we were doing yall might wanna get a taller fence lol..anything else was perfect..
The property have only 2 full rooms and 1 is not good because the A c not work good on side
And the property have onlyb2 full rooms and 1 is not good room the AC not go inside too small one of those bathrooms have the shower broken but I buy and I put another one other after that everything was good
This property is in a really good, quiet area. There were zero problems with noise at night.(there was even a rooftop party across the street that we hardly even noticed. They were very respectful of the noise level.)It is a very handy location to walk to the beach, or to Alvin’s Island to shop. Don’t miss the ice cream shop right next to Alvin’s! There’s a coffee shop, DQ close by as well.
In reference to an earlier review that said they needed to update the technology, here is what I gathered...the TVs are old enough that you cannot stream shows wirelessly. They need hard wired internet. (They only have WiFi)That being said, bring a Roku or WiFi compatible laptop or expect to not watch anything if you’re staying in. (unless it’s dvds) The cable channels provided are very basic and won’t help you in your quest to watch a preferred show.
You will need everything, down to the spices and condiments to cook if you choose to do so.
You will need to buy shampoo if you take more than a couple showers. They are sample size. If you have frizzy hair, just bring your own. My hair really suffered with the provided conditioner. Also bring laundry detergent. The beach access we used had chairs and umbrellas set up on the nice days.
There were a couple problems , but the property managers really did a great job to resolve the issues. They also followed up with a phone call on my personal message with them.(which I did appreciate)
Rent the place if you get a chance! You won’t regret it.
The house was nice, greatly decorated and clean. There was plenty of dishes and utensils for us to use when we cooked. Enjoyed socializing in the backyard too.

BEWARE of RealJoy Vacation Rentals
House, check in , etc. was great! However, the power of VRBO - that we have been using for almost 20 years for multiple trips per year - is in the renters feedback. 4 days into our trip at 7PM we were given 45 to leave the property or the police were being called. No discussion, no complaints we were aware of, nothing. One phone call from Jonathan that was after-hours with no one from RealJoy willing to review the rental agreement with us and discuss any issue. Tony showed up 10 minutes later, checked IDs and again no discussion was allowed. It was a scary and frantic situation that I have never been put in, EVER! Our group vacated, spent the next 4 hours finding a new place for 8 people to relocate…only to discover the next day that the family coming in next had called and requested to come early. I guess it was worth it to evict us, attempt to keep our money and rent the property again. The story from RealJoy Vacation Rentals changed several times over the next 2 days and we are ultimately leaving it up to Visa with a chargeback to hopefully help us! Simply put - it was a nightmare - BEWARE!
We had a good experience staying here. Very clean and comfy beds! The first code we were sent didn’t work, but customer service was about to help me fairly quickly! Parking was easy in and out! Would stay here again!
Excellent location and within walking distance to the beach. Only recommendation for the owner would be to replace the bedroom carpeting (stained) and living room couch/chairs (worn and flat). Those small updates would make this house a perfect little hideaway.
