Description

You can have a "surfin safari" when the waves are high while staying in this award winning vacation home since the emerald hued gulf waters are just a short stroll away. However you may have a hard time departing from the refreshing private swimming pool out back. The paver patio is expansive with groupings of lounge chairs pointed towards the sun, a grill and a large table with chairs provided so that you may dine poolside. A Tiki Hut nearby has raised chairs, a built-in bar, a mini-refrigerator, a sink and a blender to prepare your favorite frozen drinks. A wall mounted flat screen TV sits above so you won't miss a minute of that "must see" game.

This Destin vacation rental home has fresh vibrant appointments with comfortable upscale furnishings, beautiful decorative arts and state of the art amenities that include flat screen TVs in almost every room. The first floor hosts an open area incorporating the living, dining and kitchen areas. A wraparound couch faces a wall mounted TV for entertainment. The dining room is beside a window overlooking the pool with seating for eight. The modern kitchen has a sleek white bar with four matching raised seats where savory seafood and drinks may be served. This kitchen features stainless steel appliances and has everything you need to create a fun family feast. One of the four lovely bedrooms is on the first floor and has a queen size bed with access to a full hall bath that doubles as an elegant powder room.

The spacious Master Bedroom upstairs has a luxurious bath en suite with duel vanities encased in European styled customized cabinetry, a large tub and a separate glassed in shower. This suite has a large king size bed and a gorgeous tray ceiling which gives it a regal look. An intimate romantic balcony looks down upon the pool below. Another comfortable tastefully decorated Guest Bedroom is right down the hall with a queen-size bed. This shares a full bathroom with a great Bunk Room for the kids that includes a pair of colorful full/twin bunks. All in this entire home can sleep up to 12 happy surfers!

This Miramar Beach location is close to popular beachfront restaurants on Scenic Gulf Drive and championship golf or tennis at Seascape where Ocean Reef Resorts guests receive special rates.

We definitely recommend this home!
Our family very much enjoyed staying at Surfin Safari! From day one, ocean reef was very helpful and always responded promptly. The house was in a great location, close to shops, restaurants and a short walk to the beach that even my youngest didn’t mind walking. The house was very well kept and very clean!! We definitely recommend this home!
Mallory W from Columbus, GA - Stayed April 2025
Thank you for the kind review! We're so glad your family enjoyed Surfin' Safari and that the location, cleanliness, and service made your stay even better. It's great to hear the walk to the beach was easy for everyone—even the littlest travelers! We appreciate the recommendation and would love to welcome you back with Ocean Reef Resorts anytime.

Great family memories made!
The house was as described and so close to the beach! We spent the mornings at the beach and afternoons by the pool. Within walking distance to the outlet mall, Starbucks and Chick-fil-A.

Spring break ‘22
We had a wonderful time staying at this property. Had an awesome tiki bar, heated pool as well as plenty of space for my entire family. It was extremely close to the beach as well as restaurants and shops. Definitely one of the best spring break vacations we’ve had. I would strongly recommend this property to anyone interested in a beach getaway.
