The views were unbeatable and absolutely stunning. This unit was in an easy to access location next to the main set of elevators. Kitchen was minimally stocked and every time someone showered in units around us it sounded like a ship horn blowing in the distance. Overall, a little worn but a good place to stay.

Not the same

Having stayed in this exact unit before this time was not as great as the first time. Upon arrival the couch and chair were steamed clean so they were wet and unable to be used until Monday. So from Saturday to Monday we had to sit on the floor. Rap music was playing as we were told music is put on to set the mood. But acknowledged it should not have new rap music The blinds in the master bathroom did not work. The furniture on the front deck was not what was there previously and pictured in the listing new furniture with no table to put your coffee down on. The elevators were sometimes not working on our departure date only 2 elevators worked so to depart was a challenge. This was one of our favorite places and based on this trip we will not be returning.

Fall break in Destin

We had a great time on our trip! Parts of the unit seem like they recently had some nice updates! The beach was beautiful but crowded! A few disappointing things; building was showing her age and while the unit itself had some updates, you could still tell it was aged. That was why the cleanliness had 3/5 rating. The furniture is modernly nice but not high quality, very cheap made, no dining table. I would suggest renting beach chair set ups well in advance! Beach was very crowded but it was a peak time. Overall we enjoyed our stay!

Kinda disappointing

We rented this condo and was really excited until we arrived, unfortunately. The Lobby at Pelican Beach was filthy (doors, elevators, everything). Then we made it up to our unit only to be further disappointed. The room was filthy. I was took several pictures immediately and contacted Real Joy. The walls and floors were filthy, the fans were covered in an absurd amount of dust, the dishes still had food on them, there was tooth paste smeared on the door to the master and even some on the comforter of the bed. There was some yellow, sticky liquid on the walls with long black hairs stuck in them, the toilet seat was broken, the couch was broken, etc. I could go on and on. Real Joy contacted me back promptly and sent someone to fix the toilet seat. They also offered to have the cleaning service come back in but at that point, I declined because it’s clear they aren’t very good so having them come in again seemed pointless. We just told them we wanted everything noted so we weren’t charged. The kitchen (besides the dishes) and the bathrooms were clean which were my main concern. We saw two cockroaches while we were there but 1 was in the hallway (where it is open to the outside) and the other was on the outside screen of our patio. I wanted to freak out but then I read they’re common in that area & I didn’t see them inside our unit therefore I just tried to move past it. We met a few other couples who showed us similar conditions in their rooms which was disappointing. Aside from the above, the pool/hot tub area, beach area, tiki bar, etc. were wonderful! My only complaint was we saw a massive rat run in and out of the tiki bar area (while we were sitting in the more enclosed hot tub right next to the tiki bar). Again, disappointing. I understand critters will be outside, but eww. Overall, the reason we booked was for the view, the proximity to the beach and the outside experience which was nice enough for us to have a good time. RealJoy was always quick to return messages which was also a plus. Unfortunately, we will be booking a different location on our return to the area, and I hope they start taking their cleaning standards are a little more serious. I wish some kind of refund would have been offered to us for the issues, but none ever was.

Walked into a disaster, but great stay overall.

We checked in, and walked into a very unclean room. There were sand piles on the floor, slept in, unmade beds, used tampons in the bathroom garbage, food in the fridge, coffee grounds in the maker, and we found glass shards on the kitchen floor. Not exactly how we pictured entering the place we'd stay for a week after a 18 hour drive. After I got in touch with a representative, a cleaning crew did come out the next morning and it was wonderful coming back to a cleaned condo. Unfortunately, we were told we'd receive a money refund in the mail and that never did turn up which is very disheartening. After we had the re-start it was a very enjoyable stay and the view from the gulf facing balcony is incredible. We were able to see dolphins a few mornings, and watched them play in the waves.
