The view was amazing!! We watched dolphins swim every morning from the balcony. The rooms have been renovated and there are many imperfections in the work but the room was very clean. It was furnished very nicely and had everything we needed. We would definitely choose to stay here again.
Amazing view, condo very clean would definitely stay again!

Over half the building was under construction and I ask when I booked if there was any construction and they stated only minor construction work was going on. the noise whet on all day long. All the amenities were closed inside and out. Also to get into the building or beach the enterances were closed.
We enjoyed this property so much!
Clean and just as described! Plan on staying here again in the future!

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location
The best part of this place was the incredible view to wake up to, and the near flawless beach that’s only foot steps away. We enjoyed that every day. Check in was easy even when we came in late, house staff was courteous. Neighbors weren’t rowdy. Our kids LOVED the bunk beds. We cooked daily in the well set up kitchen. The main issues I had were related to the washer (did not work, wouldn’t drain well, no one told us that was an issue) and that the AC was really loud. I wish they would have told us the washer didn’t work, but instead I get a call that someone is coming to fix it on our last day which is more of an inconvenience. Also, the AC was really loud when it kicked on near the bedroom which would actually make us wake up. the bed had a very plush mattress topper which was uncomfortable for our backs but maybe better for others. Lastly, the internet was too slow for streaming, which was a bummer on our rainy day. The pictures make it look pristine, but it’s a bit more rough around the edges. Would come again, but keep in mind these caveats.
Jessica, we are very happy to know that you enjoyed the beautiful view during your stay in this clean one-bedroom, one-bath Gulf-front penthouse condo. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.
Whether you’re lying on the beach or visiting the many fun establishments you’ll have plenty to do

It was just my husband and I for a getaway of just the two of us. We appreciated the pool and quick access to the beach. The views were amazing and lots of nearby restaurant choices.
Everything was A+….. Was a great location and everything about the property was quality. Definitely will be back again!!!

Beautiful condo, the beach was perfect … the condo building had a bit of a crazy hotel vibe with lots of kids sports teams staying there, but the staff at the front desk, gift shop and restaurant were excellent. We’d come again.
We absolutely adored the condo! Loved being right on the beach, Destin is an amazing vacation location!! We will definitely be interested in staying again. 😊 😊😊

Check in was quick and easy.Condo was as described and welcoming.View was un-beatable. Laundry machine in condo did not drain the water,so we just used the machines on the floor.We didn't report till we left cuz it wasn't that big of an issue,everything else was fine.
Place had all basic things needed to enjoy a vacation. Location is right on the beach. This is top floor with good ocean views. Pool, restaurant, splash pad, etc were just okay.
