We had a wonderful time in Destin. The condo had a new mattress that it made getting up and on the beach a challenge, but awe that beach. White sand, clear blue water. We walked out so far before it was even deep. Close to lots of great restaraunts! Pompano Joes, Captain Daves, Kenny D, Crap Trap....and many more just a few miles from the condo. There was new tile throughout. New entertainment center, coffee table, dining table and chairs. We are already planning our next trip! Janet is the best owner!

Owner response:Thanks for the great review Robyn! So glad you enjoyed your trip! See you again later in the year!

Our stay at this condo was excellent. We so enjoyed sitting on the couch and looking out at the water. The condo had everything we needed. We will stay here again. We especially enjoyed the movie selection and the big TV. The condo decor was beautiful.

Owner response:Thanks so much for the great review! Glad you enjoyed your stay, and we hope you will come back!

It was my first longest stay ever in Destin, We enjoyed every moment. This unit is beautiful, clean and so close to the beach, Well priced. When we arrived there was no key in the box but we did not worry, a phone call to the owner and she drove to the unit and gave us the keys plus $30 refund toward purchasing beach seats. We came back with wonderful unforgettable memories, We will definitely come back, this time, not ust with family but with other friends we easily convinced with photos how beautiful was this vacation.

Owner response:So sorry that happened with the key. We have installed a combination bolt lock on the door now, so that should never happen again. We hope you will come back again!

We have stayed at Gulfview several times, but this was the best experience by far. Great view and very short walk to beach. Condo, grounds, pool, hot tub very well kept. We WILL stay here again and recommend this listing to any and all. Thanks so much!! We hated to leave!!

I loved this place so much I going back in October. The owners are just perfect landlords and really had a great time here. The place is located right in the best spot as you have stores/restaurants nearby but not atop you. The marina is a short drive( 5 miles), and most sights are with-in 10 mile radius. The other guests that stay/live in this complex were very nice to get to know, as you feel like family here. This was my first trip to Destin area and will be returning soon and yes I have booked this place for my next stay. Keep up ther good work and I hope to use your place each year for multi-trips down.

We stayed in the condo for a week in April. We had a great time, the condo had everything we needed. The kitchen was great and the balcony had a great view of the beach. We could hear the waves on the beach with the sliding door open. The pools and the hottub were great to use when we wanted a break from the beach. Lots of great restaurants in the area and lots to do. We had a great time, thanks Janet!

Wow! What a retreat. We absolutely loved this condo. The location is ideal right across from one of the most beautiful beaches around. Wish we could have stayed longer. Miramar beach/Destin is a great get away. The condo is spacious and the sunsets are beautiful. Hope to stay again soon. Kelly

Date of Stay: 06/12/09 Review Submitted: 06/26/09

My two teenagers (15 and 17) had never seen the beach, so this year we made it happen. The condo was very convenient. Definitely better than staying in a hotel room. Everything was nice and clean and made us feel at home. Plus it was nice to be able to eat in some nights to save on money. The location is nice with such close beach access, etc. We also enjoyed visiting the other beaches at the State parks. (Grayton Beach and Henderson Beach)

Hello Janet, Thanks for making our stay on the beach a remembrance! Everything from registration to departure was very easy and convenient and hassle free. It was very much appreciated that everything we needed for our stay was provided in the unit. Just as important was the cleanliness and decor was very comfortable. The location was perfect having the beach access and close to shopping and dining. My brother and his wife stayed previously and agree...we'll be back!!! Thanks Again.. What a great Stay!!!

The fact that the condo was spotless from top to bottom, including linens and kitchen utensils, told us we had found the perfect place. We had a wonderful time! We could see small part (a LOT for an inlander!) of the beach from the balcony and hear the waves if the door was open.

Date of Stay: 08/29/08 Review Submitted: 01/07/11

We thoroughly enjoyed our vacation in Destin. Although we live in South Florida, we had never been to that part of our state. What a wonderful place!! The beach is fabulous and the condo was very convenient as it is directly across the street from the magnificent beach! We had "sunset" drinks on the deck leading to the beach on many evenings...enjoyed the sun & fun, the great restaurants in the area and the shopping. All in all, it is a wonderful spot for a get-away. Janet & Mark are very nice people and made sure we were comfortable in every way! Thank you!!!!

Janet, I would like to say Thanks So Much for giving me the opportunity to enjoy an awesome week with my family. The condo is A+++. We lacked for nothing while we were there. The fully furnished place to stay made things so much easier. I have twin girls that are 2 years old and they woke up every morning wanting to go to the beach. The proxemity to the beach made this a reality for them each and every day. I can not say thanks enough or express our gratitude to you. We were able to experience the beach in a way that would not have been possible if we had stayed at a hotel. We were able to grill fresh seafood. We walked to supper at Captn Dave's on the beach. Thanks from the bottom of my heart and pocket book (it was very affordable).

Hi Janet, we are back in Mississippi and wanted to let you know how much we appreciate you seeing to it that we got in our time in your condo. This was a very nice gesture that we will not forget. Everything was very nice in the condo. We could not have ask for anything to be added. You had it setup so that you didn't have to run out because you forgot something. Again, "thank you" for being so kind. We plan on coming back in 2005. If you are ever in Jackson call us, we would love to buy your dinner. Many Thanks, Ron and Judy Page

My mom and I spent the 4th of July week at the Gulfview Condo and had a great time! The pictures we saw before arriving looked great...but the Condo was even better than we expected! It is in a great location and close to most of the happening places. The condo is supplied with everything you need for your stay! We had been to Destin before, but this was our 1st time to stay at this location. However, on our next visit...we hope to stay at Gulfview again! Enjoy your visit!

The condo was very well equipped and comfortable. There is nothing that I can think of that needs to be changed. The kids were content with enough room to run around in (hallway was great for that). My husband and I loved the space of the kitchen and the privacy of our own bedroom. We will be back.

We had a wonderful stay here. It had everything we needed. Most places do not have the furnishing that this one had to offer. A big Thanks to Janet for allowing us to stay here. Everything was close to get to and the access to the beach was nice. Although we had red flags flying for the 1st half of the week and the 2nd was great the water was beautiful and clear. Just a reminder to all that reads this when visiting Florida and the red flags are up please obey them for within the 1st few days of our stay they had 5 people drown in the water for not listening about the danger and yes all were vistors. So please be careful for it is not worth your life to get into the ocean, use the pools instead or stay very close to the shore when on the beach. Again you can't go wrong with renting this place from Janet she had lots of furnishings provided. I'm looking forward to our next stay and will reccomend others to stay here also.
