    Our vacation rental was fabulous, very nice decorated but still felt homey. It has more amenities than most rental,like 2 ovens, ice maker, warmer and super nice long island where the family really enjoyed watching others cook and was able to do a lot of tasting. TVs are everywhere you want one.
    The carriage house was perfect for our son's family. The 4 kids were in a separate area from parents.The elevator was a big plus considering my legs, lol
    The big bonus went to our daughter n love who was celebrating a birthday
    They got the top suite with a separate seating area, huge bathroom and king size spacious bedroom. All I can say it was the price and we enjoyed every minute we were there.

    We really enjoyed our girl trip. The house was furnished with everything. The only thing we were confused about the trash pickup. We had more trash on our last night and we really didn't know what to with the big trash can on the outside. We had a lot of trash from the Birthday Dinner.

    Manager's Response

    Thank you for your review of Sun Palace! I am so glad you had a 5 star stay for your birthday celebration! We are always a call or text away if you are unable to find all the needed details in your arrival information. We hope for your return in the future!

    Our very large group had a blast! Just a super quick walk to the beach (stairs to get to sand level) and a quick walk to the pool! Everything is right where you need it to be! The house is exquisite and the chandeliers in many room make you feel like you are staying in luxury! There are a few kitchen small appliances that need updating but nothing that ruined our trip and the property manager agreed to see to the items once I made them aware. Their whole staff was wonderful to deal with and quick to respond. This is definitely a corporate owned house and you are not dealing directly with the owner which was actually nice in that they had staff that could respond within a few minutes.
    The views from every single balcony were beautiful! While not ocean front you can definitely get your morning coffee or evening cocktail with a view of the water! Definitely book this property for your next vacation.

    Manager's Response

    We're thrilled to hear your group had such a fantastic time! It sounds like the location and amenities were perfect for your needs, and we're glad you enjoyed the luxurious feel of the house and its beautiful views. Thank you for choosing our property, and we look forward to hosting you again on your next vacation!

    My family and I recently stayed at Sun Place and could not have been happier. The home is beautiful, and the location is perfect. It's easy to get spoiled with the spacious house and its many accommodations, convenient access to the private beach & community pool, gated community, and so much more. The MVH team members were great to work with. I would also like to recognize Sun Sand & Sea, Beach Service, LLC. for the excellent service. Everyone was very accommodating and never missed a beat. Overall, we had a great stay and will be partnering again with MVH in the future.Best, Joe M

    We had a very nice time on vacation. This home is beautiful and accommodating for our large group. The location is also perfect with great beach access. The reason I did not give it 5 stars is because the master suite AC was not working when we arrived and the temperature in the suite was in the upper 80's. The management company did respond and put in a space AC which struggled to cool off the whole space. The 2nd floor AC was not working well either but not as hot. They did repair this but the humidity in the home was still high. At the end of the week, the main floor AC was not working at the management company was not able to get anyone one site to repair. They ended up moving the small space AC unit to the first floor. They notified us that someone would be out but never followed up after to say that they couldn't get an AC repair company to respond. I realize these types of things are hard to manage but good communication is always best. My other recommendations would be for additional porch furniture.

    Manager's Response

    Michelle, we apologize about the AC problem and please understand that our team worked diligently to resolve this as quickly as possible. Unfortunately, sometimes the problem requires a third party vendor and we have no control over their schedule. We thank you for choosing to stay and do hope that, despite the inconvenience, you were able to have a wonderful vacation and make some lifelong beach memories.

    It is a super house like with all the characteristics described on the web. Live is super more beautiful. I am super delighted with this property. They are very attentive. I experienced that the air in the house was a bit hot and I called and they immediately solved the problem. The comfort of the bed is extraordinary. The decoration is spectacular. My family and I will be back soon. We left more than delighted. we love this house. all the amenities are perfect. rather, there are two houses in one, why on the other side there is a house. smaller but super comfortable.

    Destiny by the Sea rivals all other Destin locations in my opinion. The beach is private and access is steps away from the Sun Palace, not a “short walk” or just private access as so many places in Destin advertise. This beach is like no other as only guests and owners may use the beach. It’s never crowded, always clean and the water just takes your breath away. There is company right on the beach who offer rentals for the week, umbrellas, chairs, kayaks ect. This home also comes with its own embroidered beach chairs. We have stayed at other homes in the neighborhood and this one is at the top of the list. It’s location to the pool (one house away) and the beach along with the amazing amenities make it a five star for sure. The carriage house is an awesome space with an additional kitchen, laundry and enough space to sleep at least 8 people. Rent a pontoon at high tide and go out to crab island for some fun, eat at Boshamps, Brotulas, walk to the Crab Trap for the top shelf Margarita and the smoked tuna dip. But really just spend as much time as you can on that beautiful beach!

    Manager's Response

    Wow, Melissa! What a stellar review! We are thrilled to hear you had another successful trip to Destin and that this home takes the cake. It sounds like you found a new home away from home! We are so glad the rental and the location met all your needs and that you were able to soak in that Florida sun on the shoreline. We can't thank you enough for your review and for continuing to choose MVH for your rental needs. We look forward to hosting you again soon! Until then, be well!

    We had a wonderful vacation in Sun Palace. The neighborhood was beautiful, but the home was STUNNING. Everything was clean and well stocked.

    Manager's Response

    We love hearing that you enjoyed the beautiful Sun Palace, Kayla! It really is a lovely, luxury home, and we're happy that it was the perfect place for you to enjoy your beach vacation.
