Our family of 5 was able to comfortably stay with our friends family of 4 for the week. The home had everything we could need and Danette was quick to respond to any of my questions or needs. Would absolutely recommend staying here!

Perfect home for a large family
We had a great week in Destin. The house was perfect for our family of 10 and the kids really enjoyed the bunk room and games at the house. We used the shuttle to and from the beach almost every day for our grandparents. The host was very nice and super responsive to any questions we had.

Cute Counts was the PERFECT beach house for our family of 9! Beautiful home and very CLEAN. The hosts have every detail covered, the house is completely stocked with everything a family with kids could need and want for a week at the beach. The free beach shuttle was a huge plus, making trips to the beach a few blocks away even more convenient. We hope to be back!

Cute Counts Review
Great location, great house. Loved access to community pool plus walking distance to beach. Accessories (carts, chairs, umbrella) for beach use very much appreciated. With kids, having kids plates/utensils also welcome. VRBO hosts very responsive to any questions.

We really enjoyed our visit. The grandkids loved their bedroom with bunk beds! Perfect space for family time. Balcony with the two swinging wicker chairs, was wonderful when you needed some relaxing time. Less than a block from the pool. Thank you,The Jordan, Smith and Willis families

Fun Stay
The house and pool where great and in a great location. just a few small things to note, the bunkbed comforters had a few stains, a throw blanket in master closet had a bad smell and the grill was full of grease and that was the only thing we weren't able to use
Other than that it was a great stay, kids had a great time

Perfect, Perfect Spot
The arrival was seamless, property was absolutely immaculate, and the owner was so easy to work with. We loved the short walk to the beach, Waffle House, and the pool! Outdoor shower was a life saver for the little ones and my 4 month old.
I will 100% be staying with Danette in the future.

Spring break vacation
We stayed here with another family for spring break. The condo was modern, clean & definitely well equipped for all 8 of us.
Close to shopping & close walking to the beach if you so desire.
This was our first trip to Destin & I cannot say enough about the beautiful beach! We will definitely come back. The pool at Crystal Beach was great too, the kids had a blast!
Looking forward to seeing Destin again soon 😊

1st time in Destin
The house was very nice and clean. It had everything we needed and more. It was plenty of space for our family of 12. The people in the neighborhood were family friendly and nice. The location was great. We had a vehicle and everything was a short distance. The beach was a short walk. Michelle the host was very attentive and helpful.

Review
We had a great time
Pros
Condo was clean and very up to date
Short 10 minute walk to beach OR you could call free shuttle who would pick you up at your door steps and bring you back to your door steps when you call you need to be ready because he is there immediately beach is unbelievably beautiful
Cons
My four teenagers used all the hot water but they do so at my house too 😂😂. There are really no cons we would definitely stay there again

Grandparents, adult children with grandchildren getaway
We had such a great time at Cute Counts! The house fit all of our needs. We brought our grandchildren who are 8 month old twins, Michelle purchased and sent a second pack-n-play with mattress for the babies. The walk to the pool is a short block away. The walk to the beach is a short stroll, we did meet the trolley van, but decided to walk instead. We spent a lot of time in the house for nap time, we all had our own space, very accommodating!! We would definitely stay again!

Lovely Beach Vacation + Helpful Staff
we had a wonderful time at this house with people of all ages. It is a great area for kids. our propane tank even went out and the owner quickly replaced it for us! two things to note were the pool was not heated and was very cold and we struggled to get in. we also had a short supply of spoons. overall awesome experience we definitely recommend.
