Beautiful place to stay and very close to the beach. I only wished they had informed us that although the condo is pet friendly, the sand in Destin is not.

We had a fantastic stay at this Vrbo! The unit was very spacious and comfortably accommodated our group. Everything was spotless and well-maintained, which made it easy to relax right away. The pool area was great, clean, inviting, and never too crowded.One of the best parts was the location. It’s just a one-minute walk to a private beach on the Gulf, which made morning and evening trips incredibly convenient. The area was peaceful and quiet, perfect for a relaxing getaway.Overall, a clean, roomy, and well-located place, we would definitely stay here again!
