Owner was very receptive to questions. We would love to stay here again. Lots to do for the kids and so close to the beach. Having our own pre-rented beach chairs was the cherry on top. This home with so many private bedrooms, the heated pool and pool table were perfect for our large group. Home was also super clean and homey. Thank you Dana!

Perfect location!

Our family vacation was perfect staying at Chill Pill! Plenty of room, exactly as described, location to the beach was easy to walk to with a great restaurant nearby. And the setup every day at the beach was awesome so we didn’t have to rush to get a place especially when it was the Fourth of July week! The pool was great to have after beach time. I can’t recommend this location enough!

Perfect Location

If you’re not staying directly on the beach this is the next best thing. Easy beach access about 50 yards away. Beautiful pool facing the main road. The house had more than everything you could possibly need. The bottom level is perfect for hanging out with the pool table and shuffle board and open floor plan. Easy access to shopping, restaurants & fun. Highly recommend. Would stay again.

Wonderful house for large families or groups!

We travelled with 8 adults and 6 kids. The house met all of our needs for space and then some. What we loved about the house was the shuffleboard table and beach service so no one had to wake up early and claim our spot on the beach! It is such a beautiful place and Dana was very responsive when contacted. I will definitely consider booking again either this property or one of their others.

Best week at Chill Pill!

We just spent the best week at Chill Pill Destin! My family of 18 (10 adults and 8 kids) went to celebrate my parents 40th anniversary and this house was everything we needed and more. Every family had their own bedroom/bathroom and even had the master on the first floor as a spare bedroom. which became the cozy place for the early riser kids to go and watch tv before the rest of the group woke up. Four “big kids” slept in the bunk room. Which is massive! It isn’t closed off (doesn’t have a door) which we were initially concerned about, but had zero complaints from them about noise even when adults were downstairs playing pool and shuffle board so the music on. The kitchen has everything you’d need for cooking and plenty of places for ordering out! The pool table and shuffleboard was being used constantly, fun for adults and kids. The outdoor pool was easily the kids favorite place. They would have stayed in it from morning to night if we let them. But we had to force them out to go to beach. Which is one of the best (if not the best) beaches I’ve ever seen. Powder soft sand and turquoise water, it was heaven. The included beach set ups (6 chairs and 3 umbrellas), set up every morning for you was amazing! And lots of extra in shed. I think the only “complaint” (more like a suggestion) we had was we wish there was a dining set of some sort outside. Lastly, I have to say that I don’t think I’ve ever left a rental in all my years of renting houses and been genuinely sad and thought to myself, “I can’t imagine never being here again”. Closing that door and leaving was so hard. So I guess that means I just have to come back! Thank you Dana!!

Spent a wonderful week with family at this beautiful property! The space is performing large groups! Each bedroom having an en-suite bathroom made it so comfortable for everyone. The location is great, just a few houses away from an amazing beach. The chair service at the beach was such an appreciated luxury. The shed is stocked with every beach and pool toy that you will need. The kids also loved the outdoor shower and the backyard pool. Inside, the house is beautiful and well organized and labeled. Can’t say enough nice things about this vacation space!

Beautiful Home

The layout of this home was perfect for myself and 5 girlfriends. One had a knee replacement, so the first floor bedroom was perfect for her and then having 5 king sized beds on the 2nd floor with on suite baths for each. All of the beds were very comfortable. The 3 floor with the bunk beds wasn’t even used. Our weather wasn’t great but the heated pool made it possible to enjoy the outdoor area. We did sit at the beach a couple time, with sweatshirts on. Kitchen was well stocked. Owner was very responsive, I did let her know that a few things could have been cleaner and she let me know she has hired a new team that would be starting after we left. It will be a shame when the house across the street will be finished … the beach view will be minimal at that point.

Excellent property and location!

Indoor/outdoor living just a short walk to the white sand beach. Backyard pool is ideal for a big group and the kids barely got out! Big open floor plan on main level and spacious bedrooms with nice bathrooms upstairs. Loft area way up top provides a great retreat for kids and adults alike. Plenty of room to park and great restaurants steps away on either direction, Soleil and Camille’s. Communication with host very quick and easy. Great stay and you won’t regret it either!

Beautiful house, fantastic location - something to do for everyone

Three adult siblings, spouses and a lot of cousins - our best vacation yet. All the couples had a big room, a king bed and bathroom. All the cousins mixed up for nightly sleepovers. Everyone could do their own thing. Some were swimming in the pool, some went to the beach, some went shopping and a lot watched football, snacked and napped. In the evening we had a big family meal.

Our stay at “chill pill” could not have been better. There were a couple very minor issues that the owners quickly resolved. The communication was great and the owners were very friendly! We brought way too much stuff, because they had everything we could have needed for the beach and/or pool. Internet worked great, even with a house full of people and many devices hooked up.
