Destin, a beautiful city on Florida’s Emerald Coast, is a great place to visit. Blessed with stunning white beaches, the city is famous for its plentiful fish population and crystal-like white sands. It is even referred to in some circles as “the world’s luckiest fishing village” as fishing is one of its main attractions. This fantastic city offers visitors several exciting activities to do. Chill on its pristine beaches as you watch the kids build sandcastles, shop in one of its upscale boutiques, play golf at its lush golf courses, dine on delicious cuisines at the numerous world-class restaurants, or have a family day at one of the top theme parks in the city. Destin is also teeming with great places to stay. If you are visiting this idyllic destination and you don’t know where to stay, here is a list of the best Airbnb vacation rentals in Destin, Florida.
What to look forward to:
- A trip to the coast certainly warrants gorging yourself on fresh seafood. When hunger strikes, look up the list of best seafood restaurants on the tourism website for Destin-Fort Walton Beach. The list includes Dewey Destin’s Crab Island, where you can try shrimp, crab and fresh fish prepared by Destin’s founding family, and McGuire’s Irish Pub, which is famous for its sushi.
- Catch a fun dolphin or sea lion show at Gulfarium Marine Adventure Park or enjoy interacting with and learning more about the marine species living here.
We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) Superhost status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and amenities. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on April 19, 2025.
1. Destin Doublemint (from USD 115)
Enjoy easy access to the shores by booking this property that’s part of the Destin beach house rentals in the area. With a master bedroom and a bunk bedroom, there’s enough sleeping space for a group of friends on break or a family looking to enjoy the Florida sun. This rental has the advantage of having its own private yard and entrance completely separate from the upstairs unit.
There are plenty of family-friendly amenities here, in case you’re thinking of bringing kids along. From a travel cot to books and toys, your kids will be both safe and entertained.
Apart from the beach being within walking distance, renters will have access to community amenities such as the community swimming pool and a handy shared laundromat facility. Do note that the cost of using the laundromat is 2 USD per wash load and 1.75 USD per dryer load. You’ll also have to bring your own detergent. You may also rent bicycles and golf carts for getting around, so you won’t need to bring out the car.

2. Seventh-floor apartment with resort view (from USD 331)
This spacious three-bedroom condo provides a perfect setting for anyone looking to spend their time overlooking the ocean. The living area here offers the best view from the apartment through its floor-to-ceiling windows. Make sure to step out onto the balcony and take in that ocean breeze, and you won’t be disappointed. As someone who also travels to uncover more about himself, I particularly love that I can just spend hours on the balcony watching the waves clash against the shore.
This rental comes with private beach access. So, make sure to grab the access card to get to the beach and other parts of the building, including the parking as well. Other amenities available here include a shared hot tub, gym, and a pool. You’ll even have a jetted tub in the master bathroom.

3. Deja View (from USD 419)
Deja View is a gorgeous beachfront apartment with private beach access. The best part about this rental is that you won’t have to worry about your child crossing a street or a crowd while heading to the beach, as there are none along the way.
While at the beach, you could consider renting the beach amenities from a local beach service. However, the host does provide beach towels for added convenience. And don’t worry about getting the sand all in your hair because there’s an outdoor shower on the way back to the apartment. Prefer safer swims? There’s a shared heated pool on site as well, accessible throughout the year between 8am and 10pm.
Consider traveling light and throw that dirty laundry in the complimentary washer and dryer provided at the rental. Moreover, the rental offers extra pillows and blankets, so you only need to bring what’s necessary for the trip. Make sure that you check out all the amenities offered here before you begin packing.
