Beautiful Views!

We enjoyed our stay here. The room was clean and ready on our arrival. The room was great just a few cosmetic updates would help, a little paint and trim work to keep up with but it was not anything that we could not deal with. The property has many amenities and places to enjoy the pools, tiki bar and beach. The room was clean, great size for our family of 2 adults and 2 kids. It had the needed cooking utensils and starter care package which was great. The view from the balcony was amazing, we enjoyed coffee in the chairs every morning listening to the waves crashing! We hope to be back again soon, great value!

Short stay

We only had an overnight stay and I was honestly glad. The condo was filthy and I would have been super upset if I was staying a week and having my son's young family (2 yr. old granddaughter) come over to visit me which lives in the area and is the reason for our vacation in Destin. Super glad a I booked another home for the remainder of our 10 day stay. I have supporting pictures to back up my statement of just how filthy the unit is. If the unit was to have a major cleaning it'd be an awesome stay.

Beautiful View

This is going to be long Pros: I’ll start with the resort itself first. The location was perfect! The property is very secure. My husband and I felt safe the entire time we were on the property. The workers are nice. There is a cafe and tiki bar on-site. Both are great! Beware ice for coolers are scarce. Once they are out, they don’t get anymore until the next day. This is the second time we’ve stayed at this resort and the first time with this owner. Now the condo itself. The view from the balcony is beautiful! This condo is on the 5th floor and the pool is right below. It closes at 5 so there isn’t any noise at night. I pleasantly surprised to see there was no carpet in the condo even though the pictures show there is. Cons: The condo floor was covered in sand when we got there. I know it’s hard to get it all but the other condos we’ve stayed in, the floor was much cleaner. The shower head in the master bath is disgusting, there is mold on it. Gross. If you are tall, you’ll have to squat down some to use the shower head. My husband is 6’2 and had to use the other bathroom because he couldn’t stand the other shower. There was hair in the sink and on the counter when we got there. Also gross. When they say they don’t supply much, they mean it. 2 trash bags in the place, one roll of paper towels, no salt or pepper, no scissors, barely any dishes, and no extra blankets. The quilt on the master bed is very thin. The couch is not comfortable and very small. The balcony furniture is very low to the ground so you’re staring through the rails the whole time you sit out there. I had a question about check in and I sent a message 6 hours before we were set to arrive and didn’t get a response from the owner until like 3 days later so that was very annoying. Not good communication at all. When we first got there, the refrigerator was not very cold. I’m not sure if they unplug it and then plug it back up when a new renter is coming. Either way it took 4 hours before it was actually a good temperature for a fridge. The next time we come to Destin, we will be going through a private owner and not a company owner. Our experience with a private owner was much better than this one unfortunately.

Great view. Condo was very nice. Did not use beach service as you have to reserve it well in advance to get a spot close to the water. Used our own chairs and umbrella ans saved money but was required to stay behind the beach service chairs. Tiki bar on beach was very nice. Overall a very nice stay.

Perfect!

Absolutely LOVED this condo! Had a beautiful view of the ocean and the size of the unit was just perfect for my husband, my 2.5 year old and myself. They also had a cafe and a tiki bar that was very convenient with great food! However if you are wanting to rent chairs on the ocean on the beach, be sure to do that prior to your stay. They were all booked up while we were there. Everything else was great and we are planning on booking this condo again next year!

This unit was clean and convenient. The unit is a small apartment. Not much room for my four children but we made it work. Kitchen was stocked well with lots of cooking pots and pans etc. The shower is spacious and nice. Mirror's make the room look bigger than it actually is. Restaurant on site is only open from 8am to 3pm. They have 2 pools on site. We would definitely stay in this unit again. We only spent 2 nights due to Hurricane Michael.

Absolutely perfect!

The unit was clean and comfortable. It was directly across from the laundry room but we never heard anything. Quiet unit. Elevators were quick. The trash Shute stayed locked the whole time so we couldn’t throw trash away. The water was chrystal clear and temp was perfect. Enjoyed the tiki hut drinks. The only negative was the beach space was tight. Since it is a private beach all the chairs and umbrellas were very close together. It was hard to even walk between the umbrellas and you pretty much sat with strangers. We would stay here again!
