the layout of the house was a perfect fit for our family and it was very clean.

This house was in a quiet neighborhood right across from the community pool and close to the beach.

looking forward to booking this location again.

Honestly… couldn’t find a thing wrong with this place. Instructions for our arrival were so easy. Our special occasion was for our daughter’s 14th birthday. Our guests included 2 adults and 7 teenagers. The teenagers used the back 3 bedrooms which was ideal for all of them visiting each other and getting ready. The 2 adults used the front bedroom. The house was very spacious, clean, plenty of houseware items for cooking, cleaning, etc. 2 refrigerators are in the kitchen - perfect for stashing drinks and food for the week. Even though we didn’t use the living room much, it was very nice. The pool is conveniently located for the kids to go swimming while we relaxed inside the house and/or porch. Beach is like 3-4 minute walk along with various stores within 5-10 minutes. The property management team was very responsive and helpful.

don't miss out! perfect vacation property in destin, florida

We loved the location and everything at the property. Property is just as seen in photos. Exceptionally clean. Pool access was right across the street. The walk to the beach is about 2-3 mins, with a covered pavilion with public bathrooms and showers to rinse the sand off. Newman-Dailey was wonderful to work with. They easily answered all the questions we had about the area and stay. Trash pick up was 2 times a week, and the beds were all comfortable. Parks up to 3 vehicles as well. The gorgeous home was super clean and easy to maintain. The kitchen was big and had everything needed for our 10 night stay. The grill was great too. Out of the 6 of us, we had zero complaints.

we loved loved loved the house!

We have stayed at this property two times and have loved both visits! We have a 5, 3, and 2 year old and it is the perfect house for our family. We love being close to the pool, but not having one to worry about with our littles. The fenced-in front yard makes a great play space for nap time. The house is clean and well-kept. We loved having two refrigerators in the kitchen and a grill to cook on. My children enjoyed the bunk bed room to relax and nap. This property is so close to the beach. Every morning I would get up and walk to take a peek at the beach conditions. We would also recommend the nearby restaurant/coffee shop that is less than a block away. We truly can't say enough positive things about this property!

the royal

This place is beautiful, the location was great with just a block from ocean, and a really nice coffee shop. The only thing I would change about it, is having to move the grill, where it’s placed was a pain, but with some muscles we were able to move it away from the garage and house. We had a wasp problem on the front porch, but once I reached out to the manager, they had someone there right away to get rid of them. All in all, the place is wonderful and I would stay there again!

perfect perfect location

The location was the best and perfect! You are less than a block away from the beach. Just crossing the street. Grocery stores are close by, the best beaches to walking distance and close to Destin's main dock. The surroundings are beautiful. A lot of cute beach houses. The place itself was great, they had almost everything for you to be comfortable and spend great vacations. Everything was nice and clean. Although, I think they have room for improvement, the bedroom with 2 individual beds had 2 mattresses that were not comfortable.

a great vacation!

We had a wonderful vacation at the Royal Bahamian. The house was adorable. The pictures don't do it justice. Everything was very clean. The kitchen was well stocked with everything you could want or need. The pool was small, but was only crowded one day when it was too rough to swim at the beach. Most other times, we had it to ourselves. The beach was very close as well and an easy walk. It's a great location as it's close to a ton of restaurants and stores. This was one of our favorite vacation rentals and we would definitely love to stay again!

Lovely Home with a perfect location for the Crystal Beach area of Destin. The house is a great and fun place. Stereo throughout the house was a lot of fun! Open concept is great and the furniture was very comfortable and inviting.

great location!

The location of the house was perfect for our needs! We were right across from the pool and a very short walk from the public access beach. With small kids this was ideal. We loved the fenced front yard with the porch, which is where we spent most of our time when we weren’t at the beach or pool. The house was a convenient layout for our 2 small families.

great stay and location

Our stay was great, we had an issue with the microwave and toaster not working, we had someone bring us a new toaster and replacement microwave within 24 hours. The location is a 5 minute walk from the beach, the kids also loved that the community pool was right across the street. The entire neighborhood was great, I was wearing my Ohio State hat and shirt, our neighbor just happened to also have graduated from OSU but 20 years before me, so there O-H I-O shouted daily. It was a really memorable experience and that came from the 12 year old who is unimpressed by just about everything. Thumbs up.

Nice house that is close to the beach and community pool. Newman-Dailey was very responsive with customer service. We added an extra day to our stay with no problem. The Wifi wasn't working and someone was out within the hour to fix it. Would rent from them again.

more than expected

My friends and I stayed at the Royal Bahamian house in Destin . The house was more than we expected. Newman Daily was the best realtor we have ever had. Another bonus the pool was directly out of front door just across the street. Loved it.

The house was very roomy and we really liked the decor. It was a very short walk to the beach and the pool was right outside our front door.
