Welcome to the Bananarama Beach House. Our family has been coming to the Destin area for years, and we are excited to welcome you to our home located in Seagrove Beach. Located in the heart of scenic 30A, Bananarama is located a short walk (560 feet!) to the beach and is a short bike ride to restaurants, activities, and fun (Seaside is only 1.5 miles away). We know it is difficult to find the right rental home, and we hope this website will help provide you with helpful pictures, maps, and area websites.
In addition to the house specifics (4 bedrooms, a bunkroom loft, 3 full baths, private heated pool, and 3 parking spaces), we also would like for you to know that we have outfitted the house with extras to help with your decision, including beach toys, pool floats, ice chest, beach cart, beach umbrella, free movies via Netflix, books, games, pack'n play, high chair, wireless internet, and other items we hope you will enjoy.
New in 2012: In a constant effort to keep our home up to date, and to provide our guests with the most comfortable environment we have improved a number of things in 2012 for the 2012/2013 season, including a new air conditioner, new mattresses, and a redecorated decor. We will be making investments each year for yours and our enjoyment. Check it out and see.
If you have any questions, please send us an email at bananarama.beach.house@gmail.com because we would love for you to stay and enjoy Seagrove Beach bananarama-style.
