Great, quiet place near the beach!

Pros: The condo was everything we needed for our girls' trip! The neighborhood was quiet. It is walking distance to a private beach entrance. The pool was steps from the room. Check in and checkout was a breeze! We would definitely stay here again! Cons: Seemed like we couldn't get the floors clean. We had to wear socks or shoes while walking around the condo. Also, the cookware needs to be updated.

Great Option for Families

We had a great time in Destin. The house and rooms were very spacious. The property was close to the beach, with private beach access, and all of the shops and food nearby. Rooms had clean sheets on arrival, with LOTS of towels available. I would suggest anyone bring house slippers or flip flops, as the floors are a bit dusty. I’m not saying it wasn’t cleaned when we arrived, just that all the sand somehow gets dragged in each time. We heard from others the same thing, so do yourself a favour and bring slippers! Thank you for hosting our family!

Chateau La Dirty

I would be embarrassed to own this property and rent it to vacationers. Property was dirty, no lighting other than lamps. Kitchen was poorly stocked and cabinets were about to fall in on themselves. For the money you spend, you will be disappointed.

Garbage

We had to walk our trash out to a central location on the property. Very inconvenient, and there was only one dumpster whoch was overflowing with everyones trash to the point where trash was being thrown on the grass next to the dumpster. Very disgusting. Also the description of the property made it seem like we were right on a private beach. The beach was actually a little bit of a walk and crossing a busy street, there was a private entrance shared with all the Chateu guests.

Affordable Unit, About a 2 minute walk to beach

Property was more spacious than I expected. Early check-in wasn’t available but guest services allowed me to go in before check-in to put my kid’s birthday cake in the fridge so it wouldn’t melt. Parking was difficult but guest services addressed the issue. The decor and furniture had a nice vibe. The pull-out sofa bed was broken so that wasn’t cool. The other beds were really comfortable though, and the unit was clean upon arrival. Pool was clean and never really crowded but it could be bigger. Our shower started leaking to the downstairs unit and they wouldn’t fix it until we checked out, so that was a bummer. The kitchen was stocked but needed updating. The open floor plan made the unit feel big, we didn’t feel cramped. The beach access didn’t have a place to rinse the sand off, so we had to walk all the way back to the unit where there was a rinse station nearby. All in all it was a good experience for the price we paid. Next time I’d opt for a downstairs unit.

Sadly We're Disappointed

Overall disappointed as this was a girls trip where we planned to stay in the unit and fellowship. Our unit and this property is in dire need of renovations and upgrades. Malfunctioning electric outlets, dripping faucets, dated and dirty furnishings, ripped, very low water pressure, ripped and dirty outside carpet needs disposal. Property description misleads you to believe that there's a washer/dryer in unit and complimentary beach service but there is not. Thankfully there was a ski rope tied across the balcony so at least we had somewhere to hang clothes to dry. All beds in the unit are uncomfortable and squeak everytime you move. The complex is across street from the beach and a fairly decent walk when carrying back beach chairs etc. Swimming pool is 8' which I liked. The bottom of the pool is stained and dirty and needs a good cleaning and painting. We didn't get in it but has ample seating for the guests. It was a great success for manual.

Good location, needs some issues addressed

We loved the location of the building, the price of our stay, and the openness of the floor plan. We had plenty of space for our family of 6. The pool was clean and the beach was roped off for the private beach. The only issues that need to be addressed are the balcony needs to be more secure and better cleaning. The wooden slats on the private balcony were not attached anymore which poses a huge safety hazard for children. We called for maintenance but they never came. Other than that the only other issue was a cleaning issue throughout. There was black stuff on the walls in the tub so the cleaning service came back out to clean it, there was hair from a man shaving on the sink still, black stuff on the windows, and the cabinets in the bathrooms and kitchen were really beat up as well as all of the furniture. There was a nail sticking out of one of the decorations in the master bathroom. Half of the laundry machines didn’t work. Overall, we will not rent from this unit again.
