No real issues, but it was aggravating to set out looking for the lockbox on the side of the building. The building number was excluded. Just FYI, that front door is badly damaged. It has the appearance of someone kicking it open while it was locked.

Beach access, private

This location was great if you are looking for something around Destin, but not so close to the hustle and bustle of the town. It’s a short drive to shops, boat rentals, and restaurants. You’ll definitely need to drive to get places. It’s not very friendly when it comes to walking, besides to the beach! Easily a 3 minute walk, and it was gorgeous!

Easy in, easy out, would stay again

Anytime you stay at a place and think -- this is exactly what I would want if I were to live here -- then you've got the right place. I mean, I'm not sure I'd pick the exact same decor, but it was a great place for us to finish off our road trip vacation.

Great place

We spent 8 days here and it was a cozy little place. The view from the patio could not be beat! It’s out in the end of the island, so it’s on average a 15 minute drive to get to restaurants, etc., and be aware that food delivery is primarily Postmates, not DoorDash. The unit itself is bright and cheery, and generally clean. A little dated in the bathroom—agree with previous guests that a new shower head would be a worthy investment. Be sure to pack your own paper products and food items (down to salt and pepper)—there are only dishes and pots/pans in the unit. The beach was clean, gorgeous, and looks exactly the way the pictures do. No false advertising there! Would 100% visit this unit again!
