Thank you for the lovely feedback! We're so glad you and your wife enjoyed the accommodations and the easy access to the beach. It sounds like you had a relaxing time—hopefully next visit you’ll be able to stay that extra day! We'd love to welcome you back anytime.
Former Ft. Walton resident and this did not disappoint. My brother and I came down after visiting military family in Georgia. We are already talking about planning our next trip and bringing them!

Perfect Location & Great Hospitality
We had a wonderful stay at this condo in Destin! The location was perfect — close to everything and just steps from the beach. The unit was clean, comfortable, and stocked with everything we needed for our stay. Midway through our trip, the washing machine broke, and while they weren’t able to repair it during our stay, the front desk was quick to accommodate us by letting us use the laundry in another unit, which we really appreciated. Overall, a great place to stay and we’d be happy to return!

Thank you so much for the thoughtful review! 😊 We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the location, comfort, and convenience of the condo—and that it had everything you needed for a great stay. We’re sorry about the hiccup with the washing machine, but we’re glad our team could step in and offer a solution to keep things running smoothly. Your kind words mean a lot, and we’d be absolutely delighted to welcome you back anytime! 🌴🏖️
The view was amazing. The space was comfortable. The beds were super comfy. The only thing I would complain about is the dishwasher was coming out of the cabinet, not screwed in so difficult to use. We would definitely stay here again though.

My daughter & I had a wonderful week! We enjoyed every minute. Any needs/requests we had were taken care of in a quick & efficient manner. Highly recommend!
This was a great place to stay for our week in Destin. Great view of the gulf, where we were able to see dolphins swim. Our room was just as it was described. Beds were very comfortable and being able to listen to the waves crashing was great. Location was great as well. We could walk to some places but driving to others was very easy. Definitely recommend staying at Emerald towers.

Last Minute Stay
This unit was available at the last minute and we are so glad it was. Unit was clean, well furnished and had a beautiful view. King bed was comfortable, which I am pretty pick about! My only suggestion is hanging a ceiling fan in the master bedroom as we like to sleep in a cooler room.

4 star rating
The only reason for the 4 star rating is because you have to make a U-turn going west. I know you can’t do anything about it, but with heavy traffic it gets difficult.
Chris D.
Response from VrboOwner on Sep 9, 2025
Thank you for your honest feedback! We completely understand how navigating the area—especially with heavy traffic—can be a bit frustrating at times. While it's true we can't control the road layout, we truly appreciate you still giving us a strong rating and recognizing the overall experience. We're glad you enjoyed your stay and hope to welcome you back again soon!

Great stay
Overall we really enjoyed our stay. Great location, courteous staff, and comfortable accommodation. The bedding was excellent and we had most of what we needed. Like others said, the carpet in both rooms needs to be removed. At the very least, put down an area rug to cover those high traffic areas that are the issue.
