Spring Break

Great location. Will definitely stay at Beach Retreat again. Sadly this particular unit wasn’t big enough for our family. Our sons are tall teens, and the second bedroom with bunks is just too small to accommodate them. The sliding door is in serious need of repair. Very difficult to open, has a torn screen door. Would also suggest not having cushions on the balcony furniture as they were soaking wet every morning. Enjoyed our stay and will always go back to Destin area.

Beautiful Beach Views and Great Location

This condo has one of the best views of the beach and is within walking distance of several restaurants. We are a family of 4 and the condo was perfect for our needs. Check-in and check-out was easy. The owners are quick to respond to any questions and issues as they arise, but honestly we had zero issues during our stay. The condo is clean and spacious and has everything you need during your stay. Anything that may not be available is clearly listed in the documents. We loved having the two beach chairs and umbrella included with the reservation, which we utilized regularly. The men running the beach service were attentive and happy to accommodate requests. Thank you for a great stay. We would stay here again.

Great Views

Owner was wonderful and had the communication one should expect (you don't get that nowadays)! 2nd bedroom is tiny bascially bunk beds with slight walkway to bathroom. Master was sufficent. All rooms have TV but finding what remotes worked with each was a burden. Never got them all to totally work. (I guess we are spoiled). Kitchen supplies were adequate but at this price would have liked wine bottle opener and tupperwear to store food for later. Overall, loved the place.

Gorgeous view

We checked in I’m Friday. and discovered water on the floor in the kitchen. The refrigerator wasn’t working. Ice had formed on the shelves. We quickly informed our rental agent. She told us it would just take awhile for the fridge to cool down. She brought bags of ice over and told us to put our items in our cooler. Finally on Monday afternoon a repairman came by, spent an hour de icing the freezer. By Tuesday we had a nice cold fridge. Too bad we were checking out on Wednesday. Other than that everything worked well and we enjoyed our stay.

Spring break 2022

We loved the location and that it was pet friendly!! Great price for a amazing view and super close a access to the beach. The Master bathroom toilet was broken during our stay. No response from property manager via Vrbo app so I had to rig it up myself during stay. Master shower is outdated a bit but otherwise really nice clean unit. Would stay again for the price.
