Kimble’s Amazing Beach Condo

Before our visit, the property manager was very personable, communicating with us on how many beach towels we needed, the age of our grandkids staying in a condo nearby so that they could leave them a surprise toy. They gave us all the information we needed prior to visiting, and the condo was amazingly stocked for our convenience with paper products, salt pepper spices cooking oil; laundry, dishwashing, and many Essential products. Not to mention packs of Mentos by the bed. We travel yearly with 18 people and shared with our group what a great Condo that we had found. Not to mention the beach chairs, Toys And umbrellas. Everything in this condo was of the best quality and very clean. The furniture and Wall hooks were built for efficiency and convenience during your stay. It was an amazing beach condo. Thanks, Belinda Kimble for all of the hard work & special touches that you put into making our stay the best ever!! We will definitely be back for many more beach trips.

Perfect

If you’re looking for a place to stay that has it all this is it. I’ve never stayed at a rental that was set up and managed as perfectly as Belinda’s. She has thought of absolutely everything you would want and need while on vacation. We will definitely be renting with her again.

Above and beyond

If you have read any of the other reviews, you will know that if you rent this condo, you will be very well taken care of. Belinda goes way above and beyond, from the communication you will receive before you arrive, to the ease of checking in, to the all the little touches she does to make you feel very welcome, to the checkout process, which she allowed us to stay longer due to no one coming in the next day. - The condo itself was perfect for my wife and I. The location is a minute walk to the pool and a few minute walk to the beach. - Everything you need for the beach is at the condo—chairs, umbrellas, beach carts, sunscreen, etc. - The condo is in a beautiful gated resort area with a golf course - We parked on the upper parking garage. The condo is right through the doors and past the elevators so it made it very easy to bring in our stuff and groceries - The kitchen isn't huge but works perfectly and is the best-stocked kitchen I have seen in a VRBO There are many more things we can say about the place, but just trust me, if you rent from Belinda, you won't be disappointed.

Best VRBO experience ever

This has by far been my best experience with a VRBO rental. Belinda is the best host ever. We traveled with my 8 month old and Belinda had the pack-n-play set up before we got there and there was a high chair so I didn’t have to worry about where my daughter would eat or sleep. The condo was beautiful, very clean, and stocked with every essential you would possibly need. Belinda is a conscientious and amazing host. I would recommend one of her condos to anyone who plans on visiting Sandestin.

best condo experience

AWESOME! Best condo experience. Belinda(owner) committed herself to ensuring her guest are well informed from the first email sent. The Sandestin complex looked clean and maintained. The condo itself was clean, equipped with all modern appliances, and had everything else most of use at home. Spectacular view of the beach and ocean from patio, living room and the bedroom. The courtyard welcomed you with its set up of palm trees, outdoors pools and lounge chairs. The unit itself was huge, very clean and organized. To my surprise it was pleasantly quite.(sometimes no matter the season of travel or event, condo walls can be thin and hallway noise raises your eyebrows). Not this one. The building was about a 3rd full and I stayed 4 nights. No regrets whatsoever! As a matter of fact, if and when I return to this particular part of northwest Florida, I hope to secure the exact same unit. Much thanks to Belinda and her team. You folks made the accommodations experience AWESOME!

Both the condo and Belinda were amazing! I can not say enough good things. We had everything we needed and Belinda makes sure you have all the essentials so you don’t have to worry about anything. We had all the beach stuff we needed, laundry pods, all the kitchen essentials, bathroom essentials, and the condo was right beside of the beach which was perfect! The condo is also located in a great area close by to so many things, while also being at the resort where the beach is not crowded. Belinda also made sure to provide great information so we knew exactly what to do when we arrived and gave us great tips on places close by to go see and do. Our stay couldn’t have been easier or more perfect. I definitely plan on staying here again whenever we visit Miramar beach/Destin again!

Belinda was so kind and helpful. The condo was perfect. Exactly what you see in the pictures/video! We had some friends staying at a different condo at the same time. They came by and saw our condo. They were so jealous! Said they paid the same amount for a condo that had deceptive photos and wasn’t in the Sandestin resort! They said next time they come they want this condo! She also had everything you could imagine and everything we never thought to pack. So thankful for Belinda and this condo!

Perfection!!!

This condo and property is a must see. Belinda, the owner, treats you like family from the minute you book. EVERYTHING you see on the listing is true and in real life it's BETTER. This 1 bedroom condo was perfect for my husband and I. Plenty of space. The condo is furnished with literally EVERYTHING you might need from kitchen supplies to beach supplies to bathroom supplies. The kitchen is well stocked with all your cooking and baking needs, as well as spices, sugar, etc.... There are 4 very nice beach chairs with umbrella, beach toys, boogie boards, beach towels, sunscreen, aloe, etc... The bathroom has almost everything you might need (minus toothbrush/paste, comb/brush- but wouldn't you want your own anyways??) We stayed 6 days and the only thing we needed to buy was our food. Plenty of toilet paper, paper towels, detergent, dish soap and more. This condo is on the lobby level and you are literally a 1 minute walk from the parking area and pool area... maybe 2 minutes to the beach. The resort itself is amazing and beautiful. We went to Baytowne Wharf three times. Thanks, Belinda.

About the host

Hosted by Belinda Kimble

I, Belinda Masdon Kimble, grew up in Haleyville, Alabama, about a six hour drive away from Destin, Florida. I formed Bed & Beachfront after utilizing the services of several management companies in the area, and realizing that no one can host my guests better than I can. And so, I self-manage, and I have never looked back. I enjoy sharing this lovely condo with others, but I get the most joy from being a part of your family vacation. I have never met a stranger, and I know for certain that this world is full of wonderful, kind, and considerate people.

"Be not forgetful to entertain strangers: for thereby some have entertained angels unawares." [Hebrews 13:2; attrib.: the Apostle Paul, found within his letters]
