Could use some repairs

Location was great and overall the condo was great. The only issue we had was that the condo could use some repairs/updating. The bed my daughter slept in was wobbly and creaked at the slightest movement. The dishwasher didn’t work properly, one of the closet doors was jammed, and several scrape/chip marks on trim.

Loved Sterling Sands 206 needs a refresh.

Absolutely loved Sterling Sands. The location, the beach and the pool were fabulous but…. Unit 206 needs updated disparately. The furniture is dated and stained, the cabinets barely close and they’ve attempted to patch holes in the walls without much success. We visited several other units while there that had all been updated. I would not stay in 206 again until it’s been renovated.

Overall, you pay for the view, it was SPECTACULAR!!! The Condo itself DEFINITELY needs updating, from the shaky dining table to the well sat sofa to bathrooms that need updated. But again…. The View🤷🏼‍♀️

Tired Condo needs rehab

I've stayed at the Sterling Sands 3 times, and always enjoyed the place, location is great and so is beach. This unit 206 was disappointing. I would not stay in 206 again. One of the beds in the second bedroom was not full size and my 14 year old son had to sleep on the sofa bed. The stove was junky with the drawer not staying on the track. The shower head in the bathroom actually fell off when we went to use it. The place wasn't properly cleaned, old half finished sodas in the beverage refrigerator, something like jelly smeared on the balcony glass and lacked towels. I will say that the manager was most responsive and helpful, responding quickly to the issues, having the glass cleaned and towels brought up, had the shower repaired. She took the issues very seriously, and was very pleasant and apologetic and even refunded the cleaning charge which was very nice and showed her sincerity. I wouldn't hesitate to VRBO or Vacassa again and I would stay at Sterling Sands again, but would not stay in this particular condo ever again.

Perfect Location!

I always worry that the pictures are misleading but these pictures did this place justice! The location is perfect! Just a few steps from the beach or the beautiful pool area. The unit was clean and set up nicely. This is in a central location where you are close to everything, restaurants and attractions or Walmart and target! I would definitely stay here again or in another unit in this building!

Our Destin(ation)

Right when we opened the door, we had the wow reaction. After driving for 10 hours, the room felt inviting and relaxing. Everything was supplied from cooking to laundry. My only criticism would be if we pay for cleaning fees, we still had to take out the trash and run the dishwasher machine even though we never used anything. It’s our first air bnb so not sure if it’s the norm. All in all is was a wonderful stay.
