About the property

Professionally Managed by Newman-Dailey Resort Properties

At Chateaux Sans Souci, life slows down just enough to savor every moment—Louisiana style. Tucked inside the gated Destiny West community and just a short 0.3-mile stroll from the Gulf, this 4-bedroom, 3-bath beach house is designed with families in mind.

Picture your crew starting the day with café au lait at the kitchen table while the kids chatter about who’s building the biggest sandcastle. The fully stocked kitchen makes it easy to whip up a hearty breakfast or a seafood boil after a day in the sun. Out back, the screened patio is perfect for playing games, sipping sweet tea, and swapping stories as the evening breeze rolls in.

With the beach so close, you’ll love the convenience of slipping on your flip-flops, grabbing your wagon of toys, and being in the sand in minutes. Parents can stretch out under the sun while the little ones dig, splash, and giggle to the sound of waves. If the kids still have energy to burn, the community pool, hot tub, and gym are only a three-minute walk away—no fuss, no driving.

And when it’s time for an adventure beyond the neighborhood, Destin has something for everyone: dolphin cruises at HarborWalk Village, shopping and kid-friendly dining at Destin Commons, championship golf, fishing trips, and plenty of Louisiana-style flavors mixed right into the Gulf Coast charm.

“Sans Souci” means “carefree” in French, and that’s exactly the feeling you’ll carry home from here—days filled with sand between your toes, laughter echoing from room to room, and family memories that will linger long after you’ve left.

This house has parking for 2 vehicles.

Guests receive a welcome kit with small dishwasher detergent, dish soap, sponge, a roll of paper towels, and laundry detergent. There will be an initial trash liner in each receptacle and a set of toilet paper and soaps for each bathroom provided. Guests will need to replenish supplies for longer stays.

We may require a minimum length of stay during the summer and over holidays.

We do not rent to anyone under 25 or to students.

We loved this home and had a great vacation. The location was perfect. It was a short walk to the beach, pool, and fitness center. The home was clean and exactly as described. The communication was outstanding as they made sure we had all the information we needed. We will definitely rent this home again.

If you’re traveling to Destin with family, this is the place to land. The home was clean, comfortable, safe and close to everything. We had kids of all ages, so it was ideal that some could be in the pool, others playing tennis, and others just a short walk away at the beach. I loved that we could walk to the beach and then return to the home for meals and breaks - no need to lug the cooler along. So fun! Make sure to bring everything you’ll need if you don’t intend to grocery shop. You’ll get enough paper products to get you started, but you’ll need more if staying for a week. Highly recommend!

We had a lovely stay at this beautiful beach house located a short walking distance from Destin beach. The house was amazing with everything you could need. The pool was fantastic and super close. The public parking at the beach entrance was awesome. I just got up early every day and drove all of our stuff to the beach, although some days we just walked as it wasn’t far at all. The owner was quick to respond to any questions we had. I would recommend this property and would love to rent it again in the future.

We had an amazing time staying here! The home was large, clean, and had everything we needed for the stay. The neighborhood was beautiful with lots of activities for us to do. The beach was so close that my toddlers had no problem walking the distance every day. Communication with the property manager was excellent! This home is the best deal and is beautiful. Thank you for an unforgettable trip!

This house has everything you need for a relaxing stay at the beach. The gated secure QUIET neighborhood we all loved. The kitchen is well stocked (you don’t need to bring anything from home) there is a container in the back yard filled with kid toys. Again you don’t need to buy anything to make a sandcastle. Beach chairs are available in the house as well. Did I mention the grill? and the beautiful landscaped backyard. The grill came in very handy and the backyard is an oasis. We will be back in and I’m hoping to book this house again. Thank you for a FABULOUS stay.

We really enjoyed our stay. The house was perfect. It was well stocked with all your kitchen needs and had beach chairs and toys as well. Bedrooms were large and accommodated our family of 12 with ease. The beach was just a short walk away. The neighborhood pool was also a nice option if you wanted to avoid the sand. I would definitely stay here again.

The home is located in a beautiful, gated community. It is only a few minutes' walk (5) to the beautiful beach and only about one minute to the community pool. The home is spacious and laid out really well. It is well stocked and clean. We had 2 families with kids that totaled 10 people, and we had plenty of room. The floor plan allows for plenty of privacy. The community is very close to lots of shopping and restaurants. Overall, very nice home and location.

Wonderful house - besides being beautifully decorated, immaculately clean, very roomy, and near the beach and other activities, the owners have gone out of their way to make sure guests have all the little conveniences that really make it a home away from home. They are also very easy to contact and quickly address any problems you might have. The dishwasher decided to balk while we were there over Thanksgiving and it was impossible to get it quickly repaired but the owners went out of their way to help and compensate for the inconvenience. The grandchildren survived having to dry dishes and it was well worth it to enjoy such a lovely home. Thank you for a great week.

sister trip

First let me say...What a lovely home! So warm and welcoming. For over 25 years, my sisters, Mom & I have been taking a trip together and of course we've all aged a bit so we were looking for something that was a bit more friendly to the knees, etc., and this was it. Everything is on one level and the bedrooms are huge. We love to cook, so we were very pleased to see how stocked the kitchen was with good cookware. The only thing we missed was having a book or something that listed places to go and things to do, also restaurants and places that delivered. Who knows...we may be back next year. Thanks again for welcoming us into your home.

The home was beautiful, clean, comfortable, and we'll equipped. The kids loved the bunk room. The house accommodates several different types of families. The Double room was perfect for a family with small kids, while the bunk room was great for older kids, and the other rooms allowed the adults their own space. The location was only a short walk to the community pool and beach. Community and beach were beautiful and peaceful, not overly crowded. We loved our stay and are looking forward to next year. Thank you for providing a great home!

This home is in a gated neighborhood with a beautiful pool. There are several permanent residents in this neighborhood but the ones we meet were very friendly and outgoing. Since there is a little bit of a walk to the beach ( just a few minutes) there are usually people walking, all were polite and friendly. The beach is beautiful and well maintained. We had a great visit and would consider renting this home again.

We, the Grandparents, 3 children and 5 grandchildren met in Destin for spring break. This lovely home easily accommodated us all. The house was clean and well stocked with the essentials when we arrived. The grandchildren enjoyed the basketball net and met many new friends for basketball every day. We all enjoyed the tennis court, exercise room and pool. The gulf was only a short walk away. We would highly recommend the house. I gave it 5 stars because it was perfect for us.
