Excellent Place to Stay!

Guest: amtj (Birmingham, AL)
Date of Stay: 04/13/09 Review Submitted: 04/28/09

This condo is an awesome place. You can not go wrong renting this one! Everything was just like it was in the pictures. It was very clean and taken care of. The owner was exceptional to work with. This was a sudden trip with special circumstances for us and he was more than willing to work with us. We will definitely rent from him again. I also have already recommended this condo to two friends.

Great Place for the Family

Guest: Sharron (Lexington, KY)
Date of Stay: 10/09/10 Review Submitted: 10/19/10

We were tempted to stay at another condo closer to the Emerald Grand, but we are so glad we stayed here. It was perfect! The golf course is in your backyard and the ocean is a quick skip across the street. Everything is really close and for those nights that we didn't feel like going out, the Cabana Cafe was an excellent choice which is located on the first floor of the condo building. We even had beach chairs in the condo and beach toys. We will definitely stay here again when we return to Destin. Thank you for making our vacation very special and full of good memories.

We took our vacation here with our three children. We had a fabulous time. The place was immaculate with top notch decor and ammenities. My kids really enjoyed the pools, and we all enjoyed the beach here. The beds are unbelievably comfortable. Excellent condo. We hope to return. A wonderful bonus was the fact that the condo was full of inflatables, beach chairs, a beach cart, sand toys. Fully stocked kitchen made cooking for the family easy. The owner was excellent to communicate with and made booking the condo easy. Thanks again!

This condo has everything you need from games, to movies, to beach chairs.  It was nice to show up and find "that little something extra".  The owner is a real nice person to do business with also.

The best we have ever experienced at the Beach.

Guest: Bill & Karyn (Nashville. Tn)
Date of Stay: 09/05/08 Review Submitted: 09/12/08

A wonderful condo- the pictures are true pictures - we have rented 15 different condos over the years and until this one each one was never up to par with the photos. Not so here. The amenties are great, the cafe at Ariel Dunes has super food, so convenient. The view from the large balcony is so enjoyable. The pleasant walks, the first rate kitchen, being close to the elevator - all of the beach supplies there - plus everyone we met was just so nice, all of this adds up to a happy relaxed vacation. I cannot say enough about how great the place was and the owner follows up with you to make sure it is what you expected and if you need anything. It was our 25th anniversary and it meant a lot to have such a wonderful place to celebrate it. The Beach and the pools were awesome. Easy walk to the beach it is really very close and the walk is down a palm tree path. We will not stay anywhere else.

Wow what a wonderful vacation! Our entire family enjoyed this condo. The location was great and kids LOVED the pools even our 10 mth old. The condo was fully equipped with more then I even imagined. The beach toys and chairs were a real surprise. I would definitely recommend this condo to anyone going to Destin because we are planning on going back next year and would not stay anywhere else!
