Pre Thanksgiving Escape

The pictures showed everything just like it was. Place was immaculate. A lot of room for a big family or group. The distance to the beach was a short walk that was really short. Not like some of the others on the web. Only wished that we could have stayed longer.

Fabulous vacation home

5 of 5
Submitted: September 25, 2012 Stayed: September 2012
I would absolutely recommend this vacation home to friends and family! The description of the property, it's layout and amenities were very accurate. The property was very clean and well-maintained. The house was beautiful inside and out! It was very close to the beach and a very comfortable and relaxing home to return to after a long day at the beach. And the owners were very easy to work with, friendly and helpful.

Great Family Vacatuion Home

5 of 5
Submitted: June 18, 2012 Stayed: June 2012
Nine family members from Kentucky, Nevada, and Florida met in Destin for vacation. What a treat Villa Bella was. Large, clean and comfortable. We enjoyed every inch of this home. Nice large kitchen and family room area for us to have dinner and breakfast together. Walking distance to dining, bike rental and activities. Great pool a few steps from the house. The beach chairs and buckets came in handy for my two grandkids. If you are looking for a great vacation home in the middle of Destin almost on the ocean consider beautiful Villa Bella.

Great vacation home

5 of 5
Submitted: June 18, 2012 Stayed: June 2012
We just returned from Villa Bella. Nine family members on a family vacation.
What can I say. It felt like home only with the ocean steps from our door.
Great vacation home. Clean, big, comfortable. We enjoyed the large kitchen and
family room all in one area and big enough so we could all be together for
meals. Perfect location in Destin. Walking distance to eating, bike rental,
yoga on the beach, jogging. As a disabled person home was perfect for me with a
nice king bed and bath on the first floor. Friendly gated community. Kathy was
great keeping in touch with us. Would definitly rent again from her and Mike.

Great House!!

4 of 5
Submitted: June 14, 2012 Stayed: June 2012
We stayed at Villa Bella last week and it was exactly like the pictures. Very well equipped with everything we needed. Since we had never been there before, I wish we had known was that the pool and beach access and all other facilities (fitness room, grill area, etc) were shared with the huge building of apartment/condos, not just the other 23 houses. I think there were approx 44 units in the building. So everywhere was much more crowded than what we expected it to be. Definitely need more chairs at the pool. Overall, we enjoyed our trip and the house.
Recommended for:  Age 55+, Girls Getaway, Families with Teenagers, Families with Young Children
Owner's Response: Thank you for letting me know about the need for more chairs at the pool! I will send this information to the association right away! I am so pleased that you enjoyed your stay at Villa Bella! Please come back to see us again soon.
