Reviewer Comments: We loved staying at the holiday surf and racquet club, because it feels like you’re not in the heart of Destin when you’re on the beach, but you’re also super close to everything Destin has to offer. Highly recommend this place if you’re looking to stay in Destin!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: #208 unit was a good fit for our family of 6. I had a good view of the pool, so I can watch the kids in the pool. We did have to call maintenance to come fix the fire alarm, and some outlets did not work. So i'm sure that'll be fixed soon. I wish you could have seen more 'beach' from our balcony, or had a lounge chair out there, but it fit our family just fine.

It is smaller than some of the other condominiums in Destin, so less crowded. However, our unit was not as clean as our units have been in the past. We found a dirty towel behind the door in the master, and there was some trash on the balcony. We will definitely come back, though. The beach is beautiful, and the location is perfect.

Customer Service is always great and our condo has always been fantastic! We have no issues with this location. Very family friendly. I only gave a 4 on location because the view from our condo this year was not the greatest. Also, 98 has become a nightmare to travel on, but that affects all of Destin. A shaded smoking area would be nice for my husband, and if we do not come back that will be why.

We Love Holiday Surf, but our unit had issues.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have stayed at Holiday Surf off and on since 2007. We love this property. Our unit this time needed some repairs. We didn’t have hit water in one of the showers the first days but the repair man was able to fix it. Our toilet leaked the entire stay until the last day we left. We used our bath towels all week to keep the water from running into the bedroom. It took days for the repairs to be fixed. Also, our automatic lock on the door would stick unless you press your body weight on the door so that it would open. We love the property but probably would not stay in the unit we stayed in again.
