We had four families to stay in the condo and it was great. We could not have asked for a better place to stay. Everything was perfect the condo, location, beach, pool and all amenities. We will definitely try to stay there again. We go to FLA every year and this was the best by far.

Thanks for the "welcome home" message. It's rough getting back to reality. Our vacation was wonderful! The condo was wonderful! The weather was AWESOME! We couldn't have asked for more perfect weather! My husband and one of our son-in-laws went Deep Sea Fishing and had a great time; caught enough fish for dinner that night! Other than that, we just LOVE hanging out at the beach and pool and we enjoy the shopping in the Destin area. We grilled a couple of nights using the great grills at the condo and then tried to go to "kid friendly" places where we could eat outside since we had a 2 year old and an 8 week old who don't always like to sit still and are not always quiet. So we went to the Crab Trap one night on the Fort Walton side and then went to Sandestin Bay Towne Village one night and ate at a place by the bay (can't remember the name) but it was outside. Our last night out (Friday) we saved for McGuires right at the bridge - we always go there - and ate upstairs outside. We couldn't have asked for a more perfect condo. Every couple had their own bathroom and either a king or queen bed and the kids' bunk room was great. Of course we spent a LOT of time on the wonderful balconies. The views were awesome on both sides, morning noon and night! We did see the dophins too so that was a treat! We would LOVE to come back but next time our son and his wife would like to come. Honestly, it was one of our best vacations! We had a wonderful time. We were all sad to leave yesterday morning! Thanks again for sharing your condo.

Excellent family vacation in beautiful, spacious condo

This condo was perfect for our extended family of 10. There was plenty of space for everyone, even when my brother (who lives in Destin) and his family of four would spend an afternoon/evening with us. The balcony was amazing (the best place to relax) and I can’t rave enough about the views. A couple of us even saw dolphins out in the Gulf. The only thing missing in the kitchen that would have been helpful was a cutting board; everything else you could need is there, including plenty of space to store enough food and snacks for hungry people (two of them teenagers!). The pools and Jacuzzi were excellent, and the beach access very convenient. Having beach chairs and an umbrella was an added bonus. We very much enjoyed dining at The Back Porch (crab cake sandwich was tops!). We tried to get into Dewey Destins but the wait was too long, so we settled for Fisherman’s Wharf instead and still had a good meal. My husband and I celebrated our anniversary at the Beach Walk Café at Henderson Park Inn – wow, what a fantastic meal! The rest of our group enjoyed a picnic on the beach down at the Destin Harbor and watched what I’m told was an excellent fireworks display. Our best day was spent on Crab Island, enjoying the fun party festivities. All in all, this was a wonderful family vacation, and I’m so glad we had a nice, spacious place to enjoy it.

Great fishing trip and caught the limit of red snapper!

Thanks for reaching out to us. Our stay was very relaxing and we had a great time. We enjoyed the condo very much and it seems like they have done a good job of keeping the facilities very clean and well managed. As for entertainment, we had a great fishing trip and caught the limit of red snapper and several other types of fish. It was a very successful fishing trip. We took the kids across the street to the arcades and race tracks. I would definitely recommend to anyone that it is a very nice condo and I would suggest they stay there. I have kept all of my information and I will definitely consider for future trips to Destin.

Owner response:Thanks so much for telling us about your stay at our home last week! Since we are not there in the summer we depend on our management company to have the place spotless and your every need attended to! Looks like this was the case, Good job on your successful fishing trip! Snapper season is the best fun I am sure the kids enjoyed it all! Thanks again for your kind words..Hope to hear from you again! The Slone Family

The condo was fantastic!! The view from the condo was out of this world gorgeous!!! The condo in general was very clean and very spacious. I loved the fact that there was a closet full of beach equipment for our use (hope you don't mind but we left a few things there to add to the beach closet). The sunrise and the sunset was beautiful from our balcony. I have two teenagers and they both had a wonderful time and have already asked when is our next trip to the gulf? We really enjoyed our stay and look forward to visiting there again. We visited Shell Island for a day and it was the most beautiful place that we had ever been. On our boat ride to the island we seen two dolphins, and of course we all loved that. The water and the sand was a must see for everyone. Our favorite resturant was probably Spinnakers, however, we did enjoy Pineapple Willy's too. Some family went along with us and stayed in other condos at Seychelles and they too had a fantastic time. Our total for our group was 31 people and everyone of us had a tremendous time!!

Owner response:We bought our places for the view and to be directly on the beach!! So glad you enjoyed your vacation! Come back soon, The Slone Family

We had a FANTASTIC vacation!! The condo was wonderful and the view was breath taking. Loved having coffee in the mornings and watching the dolphins. I actually saw a shark Friday morning and could not believe it until I took out the binoculars and confirmed it. The weather was wonderful and the water was so beautiful!! We absolutely love Destin and the beaches there!

The emerald water of destin was breath-taking. Your condo was so nice

• we had such a wonderful time. the weather was amazing. your condo was so nice. the location, ammenties and beach couldn't have been any better! The emerald water of destin was breath-taking. I am sad we didn't have more time to stay there. • We had so much fun eating at restaurants every evening like joe's crab shack. the entertainment, service and food was terrifc. We went there two nights in a row! There was a seafood restaurant we ate at on the beach and only a few steps down from the condo. It was incredible! what a beautiful and relaxing view while eating. highly reccomend. I think you actually mentioned this place to me. • The silver sands outlet center was only 8 miles from the condo and easy to get to. It was fun to visit the morning we had cloudy weather. • I (personally) enjoyed the healthy grocery store options; however the popular ones had healthy food choices, but were limited. • My son and I were just tickled with the thrill of the airplanes traveling over our heads. The helicopters, Navy planes and business aircraft were a treat for him and I to watch!

Owner response:Thanks for your review! Glad your vacation at our place was all you had expected! You pointed out every reason why we bought at Silver Beach Towers and love the location! Hope to see you again in the near future! Again our many thanks! The Slone Family

The view was great and the location was excellent

we had a great time in Destin while staying at your condo. The view was great and the location was excellent. We actually went parasailing for the first time which was an adventure especially with the water being rough the day we went. Whew, the banana float ride was the most exciting part of the adventure. The waves that hit over our heads on the way out to the other boat for the parasailing actually took the sunglasses off one of our grand daughter's face and took them out to sea in a matter of seconds. smile We kidded her later that we saw a dolphin swimming by with her sunglasses on. But in reality for some reason we saw only one dolphin swimming by our whole time there.
