This condo is lovely and the view of the Gulf of Mexico is absolutely stunning. The listing description and the photos accurately reflect the condo's appearance and amentities. Lillian, the owner, was efficient and easy to deal with. She responds quickly and is extremely thorough in addressing questions. We loved this "oasis in paradise". We highly recommend this property. We will return!

Recommended for: Age 55+, girls getaway, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

Owner response: So glad you enjoyed your time in Sandestin. We certainly appreciate your staying in Beachside II and hope your travels bring you back to the white sandy beach we call home.

The owner Lillian was excellent to deal with, it was so nice to deal with her, and not a management company. Her condo was the best VRBO that we have ever stayed in, the pictures do not do it justice. The decorating was professional and tasteful the views amazing, it was one of the best holidays that we have had and we love the San Destin Area, so much that we are returning next year. thanks Lillian for a great vacation.

Recommended for: Age 55+, girls getaway, romantic getaway.

Owner response: It was a pleasure to meet you this season and I am so glad you will be returning in 2014 ! Sandestin has so much to offer in the way of shopping , dining , golf & beach activities its worth a return visit for sure. Great guests make it all worthwhile !

My boyfriend and I travel a lot... we stay in a lot of places that are not home. This condo was the closest feeling to home we have yet to experience. LOCATION: most incredible view of the ocean... you can actually get a little sunrise and a little sunset. INTERIOR CONDO: incredibly clean and new. The bed was so comfortable and the bathroom was spectacular. OWNERS: Lillian was so helpful and communicated everything we needed in great detail. It kind of felt like we were staying at a family condo. RECOMMENDATION: If you happen to stumble upon this property, don't go any further!! I promise this is the one!! My only request... don't book it when I'm going!! HA ENJOY!!! Thank you Lillian... we will absolutely be back!!! :)

My girlfriend and I stayed in this condo for four nights over the New Year's holiday. It was exactly as the owner portrayed in her listing--and that's good! The unit was beautifully decorated. The view was just as the pictures showed. The size was perfect for two people--roomy yet cozy. As added value, the owner was very good about communicating with me leading up to our arrival. She even passed along New Year's Eve resort transportation information which was helpful. On our next trip to Sandestin, we won't consider any other condo. Why would we? This particular condo was perfect!

Recommended for: Tourists without a car, romantic getaway.

Owner response: You guys were the most awesome guests. New Years Eve was definitely challenging but we made it . Thanks for staying with us & please come back soon.

From the moment we got there, we were blown away by the amazing view of the beach from the balcony and bedroom! This condo is beyond what we expected, very clean and well-maintained with beautiful decor. Lillian was so wonderful and helpful, which made our check-in very easy and we appreciated the local restaurant recommendations! Baytown Wharf is right across the street, making it a very convenient location for eating and shopping. The weather was perfect, and the beach was very private because of the time of year, which was nice. We will definitely recommend Beachside II to all our friends and family. It was a completely relaxing and memorable vacation, thank you!

Recommended for: Tourists without a car, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

Owner response: Oh how nice ! October was a wonderful month in Sandestin and I am so glad you got to enjoy your too brief visit. Please come back & see us again and be sure to spread the word about the amazing fall season.

My husband & I arrived Sunday to the condo, it was more beautiful than the pictures and so was the view. It was so convenient to all the eating and shopping establishments. The weather was perfect. The pool was very nice, not a lot of people using it. It was just a short walk to the beach, having the chairs and umbrella included was very nice. We had a fabulous time and hope to return in the near future.

Owner response: October is the best kept secret on the Gulf Coast ! This year was picture perfect and I am so glad that you got to spend it in Beachside II. Please come back & see us soon.

This was our first time staying at the Sandestin and the first time using VRBO - we really lucked out! The condo was wonderful! Beautiful views, steps from the beach, kids loved the pool - we couldn't have asked for nicer. The owners were beyond helpful and took much time in helping us and answering our many many questions. The Sandestin Resort is beautifully maintained and minutes from shopping and restaurants and there is a Starbucks Coffee House at the entrance - great surprise! We would definitely recommend this condo and resort to our friends and hope to return very soon ourselves!

We arrived at beachside II and were amazed at how beautiful the resort was. When we arrived at our condo we opened the door and it was beautiful. When we walked out on the deck the view was great, but the view from the bedroom was spectacular!! The stay was amazing! Everything was so clean and beautiful. We will definitely be back!!!

Owner response: That's what we like to hear. There's nothing better than the moment when you open that door and go wow ! Sunny codo on a sugar fine beach. What more can you ask for? Please come & see us again !

Awesome place to stay. The owner was so helpful. During our stay somehow the latch from the inside locked us out of the condo. We called the owner and within minutes someone was there to assist us. The only two things I think I would improve would be HD tvs (but your in florida who needs tvs!!) and a more comforable bed. We both have pretty bad backs, and this bed seemed a little uncomfortable. (Although it mostly could be because of what we are use to at home and our conditions.) The most important thing to us was the view and location and that won this condo a 5 star from us. The view was just amazing. (We even watched the dolphins from the balcony while eating dinner. Amazing!) Thanks again and we will be back! The Koehls

Recommended for: Age 55+, tourists without a car, romantic getaway, sightseeing.

Owner response: So glad the Koehls enjoyed their stay. I am always asking my guests what they need to make a 5 star visit and glad for the input. I'll be shopping with these things in mind. Please come and see us soon. Lillian

Couldn't have asked for better help from the owner. The property was exactly as advertised. Very clean. Can't recommend much as we found many places seem to close for January.

Recommended for: Age 55+, girls getaway.

Owner response: So glad you got to give us a try in January and excited you are booking for the month of February 2013 ! That is awesome. We look forward to your next visit.

My wife and I just returned from a wonderful stay at your condo. We have been visiting Sandestin for over 25 years and your condo ranked right of the top of our favorites! The views are amazing and the location is perfect. If you are considering this condo, book it now! You will not have any regrets. We will be back!

Darlene and I just arrived home and were discussing how much we enjoyed the weekend. We loved the location and found the condo quite comfortable. We spent most of the time right on the resort since it had pretty much everything we needed with none of the traffic and congestion. We’re thinking about coming back in October for a week so keep us in mind. Originally we were focusing on specials in the Caribbean , but we had such a good time this weekend we’re considering a trip back to Sandestin.

Super condo with all the amenities of home. The views from this condo are some of the best you will find anywhere on the property! The amenity card is a huge plus also- takes you to the golf course or Village without having to move your car. Hope to be back next year- thanks again for making everything so easy!

We just returned from our first visit to the Destin area. The condo is spectacular and the Sandestin Resort is incredible. Living in Myrtle Beach, we're familiar with beach resorts and this ranks with the best of them. There is an overabundance of great restaurants, shopping, and entertainment venues. The resort has everything you would need to relax and enjoy. The condo is impeccably decorated and the views from the 11th floor are incredible. To see pictures with descriptive captions, go to pbase (dot) com (slash) traderboynh and visit the Destin August 2008 album. This should give you a more pictorially idea of what to expect. Nancy and Wendy are great to work with. You can't go wrong with this VRBO rental. I very highly recommend it!

You will not be disappointed with your stay here. The condo is convenient to the beach, golf and all of Sandestin's amenities. We really enjoyed the bike paths. The condo has a great view of the gulf and the beach. The washer/dryer combo in the unit was great and we were able to head home with the laundry already done. King size bed was very comfortable. A covered parking garage in Florida is a big plus. Also liked having a code lock on the door instead of having to worry about carrying keys around. Walk out the back and be on a golf course or walk out the front onto the beach. Does it get any better than that???
