Few more sneak peaks at the 30a house we are calling "Salty Shores." Not much is needed before we can officially list it but it is very close! We decided that the upstairs and down stairs needs a coffee bar. Sometimes you need it before you even go up the stairs ☕️

Hello! As the season comes to an end and the holidays are beckoning our decorative spirit, we want to thank our guests for staying with us.

Little throw back to this year's Memorial day weekend. We sometimes take a Stay-cation and enjoy what our guests do.

If you are new to our page, welcome! We post when we can, this year has been super busy but you probably already know that! We realize that traffic seems heavier, waits seem longer and early check ins aren't as abundant. Though we would love nothing more than to get yall in sooner so you can beat the crowds, it's always easier said than done.

We also want to make sure that if you have stayed with us before after booking through our VRBO, we definitely book the next time offline to save you those fees and offer a discount! Both properties have a private fenced in pool and you get the privacy of a home with a driveway, walking distance to the beach and no waiting for the elevator to come get you lol

Lastly, our newest house does have a heated pool option for any winter breaks you have! So let us know if we can cater to you and help you relax from your day to day routine!

If you haven't made plans for this fall, take a look at White shores with our heated pool option right in the middle of town! Located in a gated community of HWY 98, it offers a supreme location to anything you need or want. The property also has a private beach access you can walk to.

Happy Saturday! We know its been crazy this season and summer hasn't started yet. Here are a few helpful hints for your week here.

1. Avoid the toll bridge and road, come down Hwy 331 through Defuniak Springs. The toll one way with the road is $4+.
2. Get in to town early. Get some breakfast or lunch and scout out your location. Even if it is not ready, at least you are already here. You can arrive late as well but you may hit the dinner crowd.
3. Get groceries Monday, unless you arrive early Saturday. They restock on Monday and less busy.
4. Walmart is cheaper than the beach stores for chairs, umbrellas, floats and toys. Leave the beach stores for window shopping or trinkets.
5. Tip your waiters and bar tenders 20%. The town is super under staffed and they really do bust their butts.
6. Destin Commons meters are for charity, you will not get a ticket for not feeding it.
7. Plan your route when driving anywhere. The locals and contractors know where they are going but are just trying to get through traffic like everyone else, so planning helps easy road rage.
8. Private beach is only to 15ft with in the waters edge. No one owns the water or that 15ft of beach, so walk on it, plant your things.
9. Baytown Wharf, Grand Boulevard and Seaside are all nice places to visit that aren't as slammed as the Harbor.
10. Boogies water sports for boats and wave runners and the Swoop boat for deep sea fishing are what we personally recommend.
11. Don't get sunburnt, you'll hate it. 1 hour sun and the rest umbrella shade for the first day will ease you into things.

All other secrets we provide to our guests who stay with us or have in the past :)

After 4 years of the tired old fence, we replaced it. Wow, its pretty tall and looks so much better. We had also laid pavers down on the rest of the area but this is the final product :)

Hello and happy Tuesday! Nothing special today other than a really neat picture of Destin Harbor. Also that you is smart, you is kind and you is important. You is also super pale, like the sun reflects off of you... Time for some sun people! (talking to myself as well 😂😒😎)
