  We love Destin and this condo was the perfect home base to enjoy it. The condo was spacious, attractive and well-equipped. The unobstructed view to the ocean from the windows/balcony was beautiful. We really appreciated having access to wi-fi and to the beach equipment including umbrella and chairs. The location on Scenic 98 is ideal, too. We were very comfortable during our stay and will definitely return.

  Thank you so much for making our stay at the beach one of the most memorable experiences we have ever had. You made us feel welcome from the start, and we appreciate your kindness and the welcome letter that made everything so easy for us to know what was expected. Your condo exceeded our expectations, so beautifully decorated, spacious, immaculate, centrally located near highly rated restaurants, shopping malls, outlets, outdoor activities, and over the top with accommodations. We had everything we needed and felt right at home. It was comfortable, peaceful and offered a very relaxing atmosphere. Many mornings we were entertained by the dolphins emerging from the water. Our experience was so incredibly delightful we are excited about our next trip, as we plan to return as soon as our schedules will allow. Thank you for sharing your home away from home with us. With sincere appreciation and thanks, KLT

  My wife and I stayed here in March of 2012..... It was our honey moon. I have no words for how wonderful our stay was... All, I can say is if you have a chance to stay here you should... It’s very quiet and romantic. The decor is out of site. The beaches where not packed... Being that close to the beach is out of this world. I doubt we will stay anywhere else if we vacation in Destin. There is a King size bed that is so comfy, that it’s really hard to get out of bed in the mornings. You just feel at home here…. . Louise the owner was very helpful in making sure that our stay was perfect. She called this condo her baby; she didn’t cut any corners when she remodeled it. It’s just perfect. If you’re looking for a rental this is one I would really consider. You can sleep 4 or 5 people if you needed to... Thanks again LOUISE…. Lisa and I loved our stay…….

  My husband and I stayed here when we got married in March. We got married directly in front of the condo (which made things much easier). We LOVED this condo. It is in the best location and we could not have been happier. The inside is beautiful and the bathroom is AMAZING! We cannot wait to go back for our 1 year anniversary. Thanks for making our wedding and honeymoon so memorable with such a great place to stay!

  I almost hate to leave this review because I may never get the chance to rent this place again. I read review after review (for weeks) of condos in the Destin area and kept coming back to this site mainly because someone had written "stop looking, this is the place". And they were right! This is a wonderful condo, quiet, spacious, newly remodeled, clean and neat with a private beach and balcony plus an owner that truly cares about her property. Don't let the pictures fool you, the couch is red not pink (maybe my monitor) and the colors are all warm earth tones, no pastels here! It's on the 4th floor and there is an elevator. We didn't find the rolling luggage carts until later, but they are under the stairwell if you need them. The kitchen is stocked with everything you need from pots/pans to china and wine glasses. IF I had cooked all I would have needed was my favorite spices. The Crab Trap restaurant is just a 5 minute walk away and very handy after driving all day to reach Destin. Take out pizza on the balcony was wonderful, try the EBA from Jordano's Pizza & More - 2" thick at least, we could only eat 1 slice each of a 10"! There are take-out menus in the drawer beside the frig. We watched dolphin every morning from the balcony and were lucky enough to see a school of tarpon on the 2nd morning, all starting about 7:30a. Our next trip I plan to bring my own binoculars (stronger) even though there is a pair provided. There are also plenty of beach chairs and childrens beach toys in the closet. My husband isn't a "beach" guy but had a wonderful, relaxing time and has said that he'd gladly come back to Destin if we could stay here again. The white sand is beautiful anytime but there happened to be a full moon while we were there and the beach just glowed all night long! You won't find an easier person to work with than Louise. We found a broken chair on the balcony and let her know when we left (there is no shortage of seating out there) and by that afternoon she had replaced ALL the chairs, not just the broken one. She has created a tranquil, comfortable atmosphere that makes you want to just stay 1 more day and then 1 more...... So, I am already planning our next trip. We can't wait to come back and bring family or friends. Thanks Louise!

  The condo was beautiful, clean, and convenient. The view is fabulous. And the location of the Cabana Club is perfect. This condo is even prettier than the pictures suggest Sitting on the large comfy couch facing the ocean view was just wonderful even without going out to the balcony which was even better. The moonrise from the balcony was spectacular. The arrangements and any questions we had were handled in an efficient and friendly manner and we highly recommend this condo to anyone and plan to rent it again as soon as possible. Our favorite restaurant in the Destin area is The Royal Orchid, a splendid Thai restaurant we visit every trip.

  My family just returned from our stay in this condo. I could go on & on about how much we enjoyed this place. The Cabana Club was perfect!! From booking the condo and corresponding with detailed arrangements to decorating the condo and making it feel like home, the owner went above & beyond to make everything easy & enjoyable. The small building that it is not surrounded by any "high rise" buildings allowed us plenty of room on the beach. The owner provided beach chairs, toys, and mats which were a GREAT bonus. The unit itself is decorated to feel like a modern home - no pastel sea shells or wicker furniture here. There were even board games for our family to play, which our 4 year old loved. The location is perfect - a short drive to anything and everything that you want to do. We loved having a "code" to get into the unit so there was no key to keep up with or struggle to find. We had a great vacation, HIGHLY RECOMMEND this unit to anyone, and plan to visit again soon.

  We booked this condo from the UK lured by a generous offer of one night free because it was almost out of season. I read the previous comments and thought they might be hype. However to the delight of myself and my husband, they turned out ot be totally truthful. The location is excellent, no horrid highrises near, quiet, classy and the condo itself was delightful. We did spend a lot of time on the balcony looking out at the beach, sea, butterflies, (Monarch), dolphins, pelicans etc. as the weather was perfect. When we did retreat indoors, there was anything we could wish for. It was truly like being at home. I even baked buns in the tray provided. The bed was very comfortable and there was endless space in which to relax. It was immaculately clean. We did have a little problem finding the parking permit. (It was under the drawer liner!) But this could be solved by calling the owner who lives reasonably close. I would definitely recommend this to my friends and family. (I already have)

  This condo was gorgeous, even prettier than the pictures! Every attention to detail was taken care of by the owner from the directions, to anything and everything needed by someone renting this place. The cookware (anything you would need was provided) was new as we enjoyed cooking a few meals while we were there. There is nothing like cooking while looking at the beautiful ocean water view!! My husband really enjoyed the flat screen TV's. The bathroom set up was great as we each had our own "private" area! The Jacuzzi tub was awesome! We have stayed at many places during the years but this place is by far our favorite! The location was close to shopping, eating places, and groceries. We drove to Grayton Beach (approx. 20 min) area to eat at the "Red Bar" that I had heard about and would HIGHLY recommend! The place was by far the best meal we ate (went with the special that our waiter recommended) plus live music and just a very interesting establishment. The Original Dewey Destin's is good too...basically a small place on the water (NOT fancy!) Recommend the seafood platter. We also got some take home crab cakes from Sarah K's Gourmet (close to the condo) and cooked at the condo. Excellent! There are several antique places close by that we enjoyed walking through. We went for a nice romantic, relaxing vacation and this condo was the PERFECT setting to make our week Perfect! The only "problem" we encountered was leaving to come home. We would very highly recommend staying at this condo and plan on returning as soon as possible.

  My husband and I absolutely loved this condo! Fabulous view of the beach and the beach was just steps away from the condo. No lie, you will see dolphins passing by in the mornings and enjoy beautiful sunsets. The decorations were beautiful! It was like 7 days in paradise. We were very sad to go home and we were very thankful we could bring out little black pug, Mr. Big! If you are looking for a place, I can guarantee you will not be dissapointed! Great price, great accomodations and close to EVERYTHING! We met so many nice people but not too crowded at all, people just friendly and happy to be staying at the CABANA CLUB. We are already planning on going back next year. We have stayed in Destin before but by far this was the best place ever!

  My husband and I just got back from a stay at this condo. We have stayed in condos all over Destin, but this is the one I will be going back to. I normally spend hours trying to find the right spot and price. Hopefully, I will not have to waster my time any longer since I have find this "Little Jewel". Most comfortable bed and liens ever! Louise goes all out with all the little extras that makes it feel like home. This condo is decorated beautifully. The balcony affords a the best view. The owners are great to work with. Take my word for it, you will not be sorry that you booked this unit.

  I say ditto to the previous reviews. My husband and I chose this condo to celebrate our 21st wedding anniversary and it was an excellent choice. The condo was so beautiful (the decorating is lovely) and the location couldn't be better anywhere. The beachfront location was spectacular! We enjoyed coffee watching the sun rise from the balcony and then made very good use of the umbrella and beach chairs! Wonderful restaurants are nearby (we really liked the Crab Trap). It was our first time on the Florida Panhandle/Gulf Coast and we are very glad we came to this condo at the Cabana Club. It made the occasion of our anniversary very special. The owners were most helpful and accomodating. I would recommend this place to all my friends and relatives.

  This was one of the most relaxing vacations my husband and I have had. The condo was very cozy and just steps away from the beach. The beach is quiet and beautiful and not at all over crowded. The owner was incredibly easy to work with and easy to contact. The pictures really don't do the condo justice, it is better in person. We will certainly be returning next year! We highly recommend this condo to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway.

  We had the best time here! Beautifully decorated, beach front, pet friendly, and so much more! There was EVERYTHING in this condo that we needed and more. We didn't want to leave. The owner was very helpful and accurate with all the information. The location was perfect it was about a 3-5 min drive from the Destin commons shopping mall and so close to everything. I would highly recommend renting here we are defiantly coming back again!
