This condo was exceptionally clean and was exactly as described in the listing. We were very comfortable there. We had some difficulty with the unit's wifi network, but the nice folks at the registration desk gave us a card with the login for the building's network, which worked just fine. The resort itself is nice and has tons of amenities. We enjoyed our stay!

This condo was a wonderful stay! The beach chair service was great, loved the cafe food options for breakfast and lunch, as well as the tiki hut convenience on the beach! Kids took advantage of the pools and hot tub. Unit was very clean and I appreciated the leftover previous guest sunscreen. This was a last minute get away and it was easy, comfortable, clean and wonderfully relaxing!!

Perfect Location

We loved the area. 30 mins from Airport, stopped and got groceries 2 mins from condo. Ocean view was perfect for morning. The condo was perfect for me and my boyfriend and quick access to beach and pools. Bigger pool was busy with kids, smaller one was perfect for us, less little kids because deeper. The Tiki hut was perfect for drinks and mid day snack. Then uber ride down to Harbor to tonssss of restaurants and bars. The condo had 2 beach chairs and mat/umbrella if needed. All in all, we loved destin. Crab island is a must. So funnnnn. We saw dolphins and enjoyed the clear water! We will be back.

Well-equipped condo - great location

The condo is well equipped in the kitchen and some bath towels were provided. You may want to pack extra if you have more than 4 people staying, especially wash cloths. Excellent location in Destin and the beach was so nice! Would recommend and we would definitely stay here again. Joan the property owner was quick to respond to any of my messages too.

Family getaway

We absolutely loved our condo and the property owner. Everything on that end was wonderful and the owner was very accommodating. The resort was very clean and there were workers constantly making sure everything was clean. Our only complaint was the pool. Very strict on drinks near the pool and they closed the pool down very easily for weather and weren’t quick to reopen.

Perfect location, great condo

We really loved our stay. The condo was very clean, with soft, new looking linens on all the beds. It was equipped with a wide array of cookware, all in new condition, plenty of tableware and food storage for what we were needing. The view from the balcony was fantastic and I was very pleasantly surprised by the speed and ease of getting from the condo to the 2 main pools on the property and the beach. The condo owner was quick to get back to us and very friendly and accommodating. We definitely plan to stay here again!

The property was absolutely perfect for my family. The unit itself was very clean and well furnished. It offered great unobstructed views of the beach from the balcony and the sunsets were beautiful looking out from the entry. The resort itself was also great- the zero entry pool was the kids’ favorite and I was impressed with how well maintained the entire property grounds were - even the grills were clean! Drinks and food were even better than expected and good value. Wouldn’t hesitate to book again!

Nice on-beach property

The condo was very nice overall and wonderfully located. Staff was friendly and inviting. The interior decor was inviting, fresh, and up-to-date...you definitely felt as if you were at the beach! Check-in was a breeze, and the communication with the owner was timely and responsive. Improvements needed: Lysol wipes revealed that kitchen island countertop had not been cleaned properly for some time. Skillets and kitchen cutlery need to be replaced- very worn. Patio furniture was filthy and tied everywhere with yellow caution tape. I had to spend time wiping down the furniture to clean it and removing the tape so we could enjoy the patio (it was plastic patio furniture). Quite off-putting.
