BEACH Just off the pool area, you will find the boardwalk that leads to the beautiful beaches of the Emerald Coast with crystal clear waters and fluffy white sand making it a great spot for relaxing the day away. Looking for a tropical drink or a tasty snack? Slide to the Sand Bar Tiki Bar and Grill at the end of the boardwalk near the pool and grab one of their seafood sandwiches, juicy burgers, or tasty salads.

From the unit/balcony is a peek-a-boo view of the ocean.

Stay at Picture Perfect
Our stay was good. The description of the condo was a bit deceptive in my opinion. You can only see glimpses of the water through a couple of buildings. In the description it said that this condo was a three bedroom, it is a two bedroom with two bathrooms. During the afternoon, you have to keep the curtains closed because the sun heats the bedrooms. The bedrooms still get pretty warm with the curtains closed. The first day, the washer leaked and they replaced it very quickly. Overall, we had a great stay.

Beautiful property & condo.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay & it was central to everything including the pool & beach. We enjoyed St Croix and the reserved parking close to the elevator was perfect. Only complaint would be that we only had 4 in our party but if there had been 6 which it holds there would not have had enough towels. We were only supplied one roll of toilet paper per bathroom for 4 days so we had to find a maid to get more. I contacted the property manager by text a couple of times for small things but they never answered. Other than that it was a perfect stay. My husband who is usually picky loved the place.

Fun resort
We stayed here as we were in Destin for a baseball tournament. The resort had a lot of amenities that make the stay a lot easier. The pool was big and fun for the kids to play in. There is also a tiki bar that serves drinks and small bites. They serve you at the pool and beach. The pool only has umbrellas around the tables at the pool. We were hoping the chairs would have umbrellas too to help stay cool. You cannot set up your own umbrellas at the beach. The chairs were really expensive to rent but you can either rent chairs or walk down the beach and set up an umbrella there. The gym was great! They had a cardio gym with treadmillls, row machine, gym with a lot of options to use. The pickleball courts were a lot of fun. Lots of restaurants and stores nearby. We wouls stay here again.

Amenities Galore
This property was clean and accessible. It was in the heart of Destin, close to everything that Destin has to offer. It was close to fun for the whole family. On property you had a choice of several pools, beach access, pickleball, tennis, a gym. For an additional cost you could go to the spa and rent beach chairs and umbrellas. There is a quaint ice cream shop and fun beachside restaurant close enough to walk to. We also ate in several nights with access to a kitchen with most tools required and grills on the patio below. There is some noise from a nearby airport but with all patio doors closed that was minimal. Highly recommend this property!

Spring Break fun
The resort and room were exactly as pictured and advertised. We had everything we needed. We would stay here again. Perfect location, pools and tiki bar, gym and tennis courts were our favorite. The sleeping arrangements were great for our family of 5. The parking garage was so convenient. The only thing I would suggest are some extra hooks inside to hang towels to dry and reuse.

We enjoyed our stay. The place was just as pictured. The beach is close and easy to access. My only complaint was our door code to enter our room changed twice. We got home at 10 pm one evening to realize we couldn’t get in and had to call to get it changed. No one answered of course since it was after hours. There were a few moments of panic before someone quickly called us back and resolved the issue.

I rarely leave reviews, but this place definitely deserves praise. We would definitely stay there again.

Overall lovely stay. We called management but never figured out how the tvs worked (March Madness was on) with Samsung+/Direct TV. I’m sure there was something simple we missed, but it may be helpful to leave an instruction card in room. We would stay here again, though. Good time!
