Blue Whale ~ Destin, FL Vacation Home by Southern Vacation Rentals

You are in for a luxurious getaway when you choose this Destin, FL vacation home for your next retreat. Blue Whale features full Gulf views, a private pool, a game room, a stunning kitchen, and so much more. With eight bedrooms, seven and a half bathrooms, four stories, and over 4,600 square feet, this rental is the perfect choice for a family reunion, corporate adventure, or getaway with friends. 

Blue Whale can easily accommodate up to 32 guests. Not only will each guest have ample room for unpacking, but also plenty of activities to ensure they enjoy their beach vacation. There are quite a few amenities that make this home special. Some include hardwood floors throughout, private bathrooms for each bedroom, and a quick 5-minute walk to the sandy shoreline.

An entertainer’s dream, the first floor is home to a game room equipped with a tournament-size pool table, wet bar, and quick access to the backyard. Blue Whale’s backyard is unlike anything you have ever seen. A large pool, heating available for a fee, private putting green, and a private gas grill. Spend your day sunbathing as your kids splash through the pool. Whip up some hamburgers and hotdogs before heading in from your blissful day at Blue Whale. The first floor is also where you will find multiple bedrooms and bathrooms.

Head up to the second floor and discover a handful of bedrooms including the primary bedroom. The primary bedroom is finished with a walk-in closet and a beautiful balcony. The primary bathroom allows guests to relax and unwind each evening with a walk-in shower and garden tub. Each room is decorated and furnished with rest in mind. Cool coastal colors and plush furniture will make it easy for you to rejuvenate during your stay.

Continue exploring and find the living room and kitchen on the third floor of the home. After the sun goes down each evening, head upstairs to continue spending quality time with your crew. With stainless steel appliances, a wine cooler, and a large kitchen island, you will find it easy to whip up cocktails and appetizers in the unparalleled kitchen. Through the living room, you will find a private balcony with stunning Gulf views. Plan tomorrow’s adventures while savoring the sea breeze. For those who enjoy sitting down to a meal with family, a spacious dining room is attached to the kitchen. It also showcases stunning views of the Gulf. What better way to enjoy lunch or dinner than with incredible company and beach views?

Blue Whale is located in an area of Destin that is perfect for those who love to be outdoors. Wide sidewalks allow for peaceful evening walks or early morning jogs. The tropical landscaping will make it easy to stay in vacation mode throughout your trip. If you plan on heading for the beach, make sure to utilize the beach service for a fee! There is nothing like lounging in a beach chair, soaking up the Florida sunshine, listening to your kids joyfully building sandcastles, and swimming in the Gulf of Mexico. As you head in, wash away the sand in the outdoor shower and throw your beach towels in the washer so they are ready for another day.

Not only are you a quick walk from the beach, but also delicious restaurants and exciting activities. Our Gulf Coast Guide is the perfect resource for guests looking to enjoy Destin from a local’s perspective. Make sure to check it out for some vacation inspiration before you arrive!

The Grey Whale was a great family home. We hosted 32 family members and there was plenty of space for all. The beds were comfortable and the responsiveness of Southern Vacation Rentals was quick. I would recommend this home.
