                                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.

                                This was our first snowbird experience. This condo was amazing. I miss it already. We have already booked for next year. This condo has everything you need or could want. The Cabana Club was fun and the Food was very good. I would highly recomend the condo. And Jeremy was a jewel to work with.

                                We were able to rent this last September 2012 due to a last minute cancelation. I had inquired about it and thankfully Jeremy also took the time to call me to let me know it was available (in case I mssed his email). Boy did we luck out!! We stayed with our son & daughter-in-law and 1 month old granddaughter. The condo was beautiful, cozy & comfortable. I loved sitting on the exceptionally large deck. The owners really take care of this one. The only downside was Tropical Storm Lee - even though we couldn't go to the beach for a few days, we relaxed & enjoyed our granddaughter & her first vacation. The owner, Jeremy, was exceptional to work with as well, .Would definitely rent again if opportunity arises.

                                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!

                                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.

                                Recommended for: Families with teenagers, age 55+, pet owners, romantic getaway, girls getaway, sightseeing, families with young children.
