Beachfront Destin Retreat at Henderson Villas | Sleeps 16

We had an amazing spring break vacation! The home was beautiful and comfortable and fit our entire group without feeling cramped or losing privacy. We ran into a few snags that were totally out of our control, but McKayla went above and beyond helping us out, which allowed us to still have a great time. I look forward to renting from McKayla again going forward.

Beautiful Home + Incredible Host = Unforgettable Spring Break

You would be making a mistake to visit Destin and not consider staying at McKayla's place. This home is spectacular and everyone in my family wished this was our home. Steps away from a private beach, spectacular views of the ocean from several rooms, a rooftop heated pool, luxury kitchen, movie theatre, spacious rooms and bathrooms, and an elevator for convenience. This house is perfect for large groups, but also perfect for small ones, like our family (2 adults and 3 kids). We enjoyed meals while listening to the ocean, watched movies in the awesome theatre, spent hours in the pool and LOVED the privacy of a quite beach inches from the back patio. And the decor is fantastic in EVERY room. McKayla was very accommodating and went above and beyond to make sure all our needs were met. The house is well stocked with kitchen appliances, linens, and beach toys. It was really hard for all of us to leave ... and we have already recommended the place to many and can't wait to go back!
