We had additional room for more family members to fly down and join us! The private house pool was well maintained and such a nice feature for our kids (ages 2, 6, 9).The house was very clean upon arrival, well stocked with kitchen equipment, linens and towels were presented nicely, and furniture and beds were very comfortable! I would highly recommend this property to families with children, it was very accommodating with beach wagons, chairs, toys, stroller, and more!

Spent a week with my wife, our 2 year old daughter, my brother-in-law, his wife and their 2 young children. And the house was perfect size for all of us.

We wanted private pool; easy, convenient beach access; enough beds and bathrooms for 6 adults and 4 kids...and shade for me > to escape to but still being able to enjoy the kids in the pool. This was perfect!! ##### Cindy M.

With 3 young kids the private heated pool was perfect and came so well equipped with pool toys for the kids. The house itself has a great layout for large families. The kitchen was so well stocked and had everything we could think of for cooking and was kid friendly. The beach towels/chairs/toys/wagon were a huge hit too. We cannot wait to come back again next year and enjoy more time at the Sugar Sand cottage :) Nichole was the perfect host- always quick to respond and answer any questions we had. Thank you so much for making our stay so wonderful and letting us use your cozy beach house to build more family memories! ##### maggie j.

This was our favorite property so far! Pros: 1 - comfortable beds! So many rentals cheap out on mattresses and bedding. We all agreed that these beds were the best we’ve had. 2 - heated pool! Granted, this is the first rental we’ve had with its own pool, but wouldn’t rent a property without one. 3 - extras! Spice cabinet was full. Likely a combo from the owner and previous guests, but appreciated not have to buy a lot. Beach towels provided. We used our own for the beach and the house towels for the pool. Games and snacks were a nice addition. Cons: Gold carts not allowed. The walk to the beach isn’t terrible, but would be nice if community allowed the use of golf carts. I’d recommend this property and will likely stay here again in the future. ##### Bryce M.

This is an excellent property! We have stayed a multiple properties at Destin Pointe over the years, but this one by far has the largest private pool, which was excellent for getting the laps in without additional people in the way. With our group of six, there was plenty of space and we had one room to spare. The house itself has a great layout for large families. The house was very clean! The kitchen was well stocked and had everything we needed for cooking. WiFi was a little slow most of the time, which made it a little difficult to work away from the office, but most plan to be on vacation instead of connecting to the office anyway. Nichole was a great host and easy to communicate with. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay at your beautiful Sugar Sand Cottage! ##### Stephen B. Stayed 5 nights in May 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Victoria S. 17 Sept 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy Disliked: Check-in, communication #### Great property, bad management Check-in code I recieved on the Vrbo platform was incorrect. When I tried to message/call/do anything I could the day of to reach the host, I couldn't make any contact. Luckily there was a sign outside that had a "for emergencies only" number... after calling 4 times a poor lady in the middle of her workday picked up and answered, informing me that this was not the first time this had happened, and that her number was supposed to be taken down. She promised to call the owner though and inform her what was happening. I received a call from the owner a few minutes later who apologized and opened the door. But then even after that I tried calling back/texting to receive a working door code so we could lock our stuff inside. No answer... we just gave up and chose to leave the house unlocked all weekend. Otherwise, we enjoyed staying at the house. ##### Victoria S.

Family vacation for 9: two parents plus 6 kids (one adult, three teens and two elementary age), plus one granny. Interesting feature of the house was that the living area was on the upper floor with bedrooms on the lower. Backyard pool can only be accessed thru master bedroom, otherwise you’d have to go out the front door and around to backyard. Note: Wi-fi didn’t have enough range or speed for our many users. We do have a bunch! Decor was great! Location was great! Having a pool was great, especially if you have a wide range of kids. House was well stocked with bath and kitchen necessities. Beach towels available. Plenty of bedding. Beach chairs and all that, if needed. We had a wonderful time. Very thankful for this cozy, relaxing house to stay in while at beautiful Destin! ##### Stephanie S.

It is close to beach access although there is a bit of a walk. If you catch the shuttle it helps alot. The house is lovely with a spectacular view of pond with lots of bird activity.

We rented bikes, rode them to beach and restaurants close by. The pool was wonderful too! The host is so kind and helpful with instructions for check in and check out. We will be back soon! ##### Courtney D.

Great pool, quiet neighborhood, easy access to shopping and food. The beach access is great and even offers a tram service to take you there and back. The home is well equipped and basically turn key vacation ready. ##### David B.

Our family spent everyday in the pool. The neighborhood was nice and quiet and very close to the beach. The house was very clean, and the owner was very easy to contact. Highly recommend this property! ##### Jennifer S.

Nichole was a great host. She answered all of my questions, day or night. The check-in process was easy and we were even able to check in a little early. There was plenty of pots, pants, utensils, etc for cooking. Since we had a group of 11, we definitely utilized the kitchen a lot. I would definitely book this place again. We had a great time! ##### Brittany G.
