We had such a great week in Destin! This condo was perfect for our group. Even with 3 small children we had plenty of space. We never felt crowded. The condo was beautifully decorated, very clean, and had everything we needed. Very family friendly! The kids loved the beach toys, and the wagon was wonderful! Hope to be back again soon!!! Thanks!!

We really enjoyed our stay. This was our second stay at Joe's condo; each time we come to destin we love it! This is the best family environment we have been in on vacation! The beach is amazing and the condo has everything. We were on vacation for mother's day and I was suprised to find that the condo had everything to bake a cake and homemade pancakes which made mother's day special for all the moms that came! We had a group of ten and we never got crowded, condo is very spacious! Love it would refer it to anyone and plan on returning next year!

We have stayed in this condo before and it is like coming home on your vacation! It is so comfortable and everything is there that you would need. It is very conveniently located to beach, shopping, and food and you will not find one for a better price. Thanks again. The Sides

We had a wonderful time at your unit this year. Our daughter celebrated her 4th birthday during our stay & we had a great beach themed party complete with hawaiin shirts & flower leis for all. The condo was great, every need met. We LOVED the addition of the beach wagon. Great idea! We rented bicycles with child seats for our 2 week stay. We traveled many miles & really love the garage access for storage. Thanks again, we can't say enough.

We had a great week in Destin. The condo was perfect for us and easily accommodated both of our adult children's families. We loved the proximity to the beach, the beach toys from your garage, and the pool.

Joe, we really enjoyed our first visit to Destin the week of March 31 - April 7. Your condo was beautiful, and it was evident there were many things that you did to make the stay extremely pleasant. The wireless connection was extremely handy as my son had on-line school work, and my daughter is a realtor, and had to take care of some business while we were there.The décor was lovely, and the condo is located in a great location in Destin. Again, thanks. I'm sure we will return to Destin in the future, and your condo will be our first choice. Lorre H

Hi Joe, Just wanted to say thanks for letting us rent your beautiful condo. It is a wonderful place to stay at. We loved it. The boys loved the fact they each got their own queen size bed to sleep in. Destin is a beautiful place and we hope to come back again. Weather was good though, chilly at the beginning of the week but lots of sunshine. Thanks again, Gena

The condo was everything we expected and more. The extra space was just right for us, our daughters and their families. You have thought of everything anyone might need, right down to the beach chairs and toys. I miss having coffee in the morning on the balcony, watching the ocean.

Joe, Thanks so much for working with us and allowing us to lease your condo. It was great and we had a wonderful time. You could not have been more accommodating and helpful and we really appreciate that. David and I also left a couple of kites in the garage for your girls or any other children (or adults for that matter) that might want to fly them at the beach. Thanks again for everything…we have all of your information and are very interested in renting from you again next year…we will be in touch! Connie

Dear Joe, I just wanted to tell you how much we enjoyed your condo. I don't think I could have found a more perfect place to stay. I hope we will be able to stay there on our next visit. It was so convenient to have the key right there and not have to worry with finding a realty office to check in. Thanks again, Cindy

Joe, We got back from our trip to Destin yesterday. Just wanted to let you know we thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Your condo exceeded our expectations, and we hope to stay there again next year. We didn't want to leave Destin, but I guess it is time to turn back into pumpkins again. Back to the work grind - 'sigh'! Regards, Scott Davis & Family

Joe, Just wanted to let you know we had a great time in Destin. Your condo was absolutely beautiful and very tidy. The floor plan was perfect for our family and our friends family to all be together. I hope we will be able to visit again next summer if farming permits us to. Thanks so much for everything!
