Bungalows with private beach access. Chic condos with stunning ocean views. Houses with pools. Colorful apartments just steps away from the best Destin restaurants…

There are a LOT of Airbnbs in Destin Florida. Hey, it’s a beach town after all. But you deserve an epic place to come back to after an epic day at the beach. In a city like Destin, vacation rentals are the way to go so you have space to sprawl out, shake sand off after beach days, cook meals and relax. I spent hours hunting down the BEST Destin Airbnbs for you. Keep reading for the list.

I judge a cool Airbnb based on style, decor, location, past guest reviews, the price for value and just overall vibes.

If you're looking for the best Airbnb in Destin Florida with private pool access, this it. Just look at that chic backyard! Those cute umbrellas! Those beautiful palm trees! It's literally next door to Henderson Beach State Park and a block off from the water. But it's going to be hard to leave this beach home with all its stunning porches, chic interior decor, comfy living room and fully stocked kitchen. Oh, and it's pet friendly too.

Renovated Crystal Beach House

Can we just take a moment to swoon at this newly renovated beach house just blocks away from Henderson Beach State Park? It's in walking distance to the water and some of the best restaurants in Destin (though it was a fully equipped kitchen AND backyard BBQ grill for any meals you want to cook on your own.) This airy beach house can fit up to 10 people which makes it perfect for families or large groups, like a bachelorette party.

Cute Waterfront Tiny House

Location: Santa Rosa Beach
Price: $116 per night
Guests: Up to 2

I think I squealed when I saw this tiny house. Just look at that cute back patio! I love cool Airbnb homes like this one - it's right on the water and it's SO different from what you normally find in the Destin area. Past guests love how beautiful the property is and how the host has thought of tons of little amenities to make the stay extra special. This might be the most unique Destin Florida Airbnb and perfect for couples looking for a romantic getaway.

Beachfront Condo w/ Sunset Views

Um WOW is really all I can say about this beautiful beach townhouse! It's literally right on the sand - no roads to cross. Talk about (almost) private beach access. Past guests rave about famous Emerald Coast sunsets and sunrises from the house's decks. how clean it is and the access to some of the best dining options in Destin. It can also fit 11 people!

Cozy Bungalow With Front Porch

Location: Miramar Beach
Price: $110 / per night
Guests: Up to 5

If a low key beach vacation is your style, you'll love this adorable little beach cottage near Miramar Beach. It has a front porch for happy hour people watching and it's just a few blocks away from all the top restaurants in Destin. The house provides beach chairs and an umbrella that you can use for beach days, too! It's not too far from Sandestin if you are looking for a cute Airbnb Sandestin Florida option, too.

Budget Condo With Private Beach

Location: Sandpiper Cove
Price: $86 / per night
Guests: Up to 4

This first-floor condo is the best bang for your buck if you're trying to do a Destin vacation on a budget. Guests have access to tennis courts, golf course and a private beach on Sandpiper Cove. It also has a fully equipped kitchen so you can cook meals to save even more. Plus, just look at how cute that patio is! It's probably the best condos to rent in Destin Florida under $100.

Luxury Beach House With Pool

Location: Santa Rosa Beach / Seagrove Beach
Price: $421 / per night
Guests: Up to 12

I would like to move into this upscale beach house PLEASE. It has a mini private beach, brilliant ocean views for sunsets, and simply some of the best modern - meets - beach decor on the inside. Look at those living room ceilings! All the bedrooms have TVs and there's a chef's kitchen (though the house steps away from top joints like the Old Florida Fish House). There's access to a community pool, but it's a true Destin beach Airbnb, so you'll probably find yourself in the sand most of the time.

The Crab Shack Cottage

Location: Emerald Shores
Price: $253 / per night
Guests: Up to 7 people

Hot dang, this Airbnb in Destin is cool. It comes with a private beach pavilion with restrooms, outdoor showers, beach service and its very own Cabana Cafe' & Bar. Inside you'll find a bright and airy house with colorful pops of decor and a fantastic back porch. I'm also eyeing that VERY Insta-worthy Crab Shack sign in the living room. How fun!

Oyster Lake House With Hot Tub

Location: Oyster Lake / Santa Rosa Beach
Price: $270 / per night
Guests: Up to 12

Two words: HEATED POOL. Plus a hot tub, a luxury pool and of course, steps away from the beach. This is a super unique Airbnb Destin Florida house since it sits on rare coastal dune lake (there's not many in the world!) If you love to bike, this house is for you as it sits right on the Timpoochee Trail (a 19-mile paved bike path.) It's also dog friendly, so bring your pup!

Haven’t found the one yet? There are a lot of beach resort hotels here. I suggest something right on Fort Walton beach, like the Hilton Garden Inn. You can also rent one-bedroom condos or beach condos out at places like Pelican Beach Resort on Airbnb if you’re looking for a mix of the two.
