Vacation Homes Destin Blog

For many Americans, pets have become a big part of our family. When we travel, we opt not to leave our pets behind and we treat them as one of our children. Most pets are impeccably groomed, and know how to behave in public. We are devoted to them as much as they are devoted to us. With 14% of vacationers demanding to bring their pets along, the travel industry is starting to accommodate them (U.S. Travel Association). The percentage of households traveling with their pets increases dramatically during the summer when more families travel on Vacation.

With the constantly growing demand from pet owners for vacations that include their dogs, Vacation Homes Destin is listening. We have three pet friendly vacation homes and are looking to manage additional homes that will accommodate Fido. If you cannot stand to leave Fido alone while you venture out to eat, check out some of the pet friendly restaurants in Destin such as Jim and Nick’s BBQ, Hammerheads Bar and Grill, and Destin Harborwalk. Take a casual walk to Camille’s Cafe at Crystal Beach where they leave out water and dog biscuits for Fido.

Vacation Homes Destin has seen an incredible increase over the past year for pet travel. We hope when you visit Destin that you will check out our pet friendly homes.
