The complex was beautiful.condo was in need of major repairs
Silver Beach Towers is a beautiful,clean ,accommodating, and friendly complex. However our unit was in need of major repairs. From shower heads, oven doors loose,dishwasher door and bottom rack broke, drying never shut off and became very hot, Lights burned out, mattresses need to be replaced. This unit is expensive and should not be rented out until these are fixed. I reached out to Compass when we checked out and have not heard back,disappointing!

We want your vacation to be the best experience possible. We sincerely hope that you will give Compass Resorts and Silver Beach Towers another opportunity in the future.
Thank you,

It’s been hard for me to figure out how to review this property. The views were magnificent. The condo had all the space we needed and the location was great. However, the upstairs a/c had problems, the upstairs shower didn’t drain for a few hours, the toilet in that same bathroom bubbled, the master bed upstairs had a very well worn mattress and the dryer damaged some of our clothes. Once we notified the front desk, within a day these issues were addressed (not necessarily fixed). My thoughts are that we paid a penthouse price (and yes the views were awesome) but I felt like there were too many issues that we shouldn’t have experienced at this price point.

Hi, Shanna!
Thank you so much for taking time to provide your feedback! We have passed these items to our maintenance team and rental manager to have them addressed. We hope you had a great stay otherwise. We can't wait to have you back! Have a great day!
This penthouse will accommodate a large family. Has a well stocked kitchen. Beautiful views. Has a great rental company that helps make your stay as nice as possible.
With all that being said, this penthouse needs updated. The mattresses in a few of the bedrooms needs to replace immediately. Some of the furniture in the living room needs to be replaced. The balcony furniture was weathered and some chairs broken. As much money that was spent I expected higher quality, at least “standard” quality. The a/c wasn’t working upstairs and was in the “process” of being replaced all week of our rental and potable air conditioners were placed in the upstairs bedrooms. The bathrooms smelled of mold - not a housekeeping issue - a mold issue. I would go back to this location - just not this particular rental unit unless the owners did some much needed maintenance and updates.
Very clean and great location. Property was as advertised.

Thank you for choosing Compass Resorts. Have a great day!
Four adult couples stayed at this property and we were very pleased. The only thing we didn't care for was that it was dated. The views and space made up for that! All 5 bedrooms have a balcony (the master upstairs has a sliding glass door overlooking the patio and town with no actual standing space). The 2 masters have a gulf view and the others have a city view. The beds were comfortable and it was nice each couple had their own bathroom with shower. One thing I was surprised about was the traffic sounds on the patio. We were so high up and the gulf is right there I thought it would have overtaken that sound. It wasn't horrible, but in other places we've stayed that is just one thing I love the most is the ocean sound... The facility is nice and clean as well as the beach. Beach service was fabulous! Location is just like any other beach front location, easy to get anywhere you are going. (Destin is a small town)
Overall, my 40th (delayed covid) birthday was a blast and if the price is right, will stay here again!! :)

Not worth the money
Overall, the property and PH 1701E are dated and not well kept. The furniture and appliances are very old and low-end - not what you would expect for the money. The worst part of all was that we found two cockroaches in the PH. While the property manager did take immediate action, this is unacceptable in my view. The only bright spot of the trip was the view and the beach. We will never stay here again.
Property was in very good condition and the views were incredible. Highly recommend and will definitely return to this property.

Great place with big family
This place is in a great location, has amazing views from every room and accommodated our large traveling family. 3 adult couples and four teen/pre-teen daughters had plenty of room. We were there for Spring Break, so the ocean water was a bit cold for swimming, but the beach was great for running, pictures and wading in a bit. The resort hot tubs and heated pool filled in when we wanted to get deeper in the water. The sand of the beach is like powdered sugar. The condo had all the necessities we needed. I didn’t hear any complaints from the 4 young ones, so it had to be good! I would also recommend Captain Dean with The Seahorse for deep sea fishing. Amazing time with tons of fish. Fudpucker’s with Gator beach has great food and is an experience. Right across from the condo is a small pizza joint named Merlin’s (I think was the name) and it was great. Also check out the 3 level race track, mini golf place, and bumper boat blasters in the arcade about a block away. Highly recommend the condo and the trip
