Great stay

We’ve been renting through VRBO for many years now and this condo was VERY clean!!!! I’m really picky about where I stay and I would definitely stay here again. It was the perfect location and such a quick walk to the beach. Beach chairs were very easy to get on the beach. The pool was cleaned every day. The front desk was very helpful and there was plenty of parking. It was also very close to all the restaurants and not to far from Miramar beach. We had such a great stay and will be back to Destin very soon!

The Condo was as just as pictured. The only minor complaint was the master bedroom mattress was a pretty worn and had dips on either side, but not bad enough to be a significant concern. The condo was very clean and right on the beach. The balcony had a beautiful view and comfortable chairs to enjoy morning reading while the sun came up or at sunset. The kitchen was very nice and had basic necessities. The staff was friendly and helpful. The beach service was a plus but was a little confusing the first day. The unit came with 2 small beach chairs which came in very handy when we strolled to the beach. Overall, for our first beach condo rental we could not have asked for a better stay for the price. We were very satisfied with the facility and the condo itself. We will definitely try to stay here again on our next trip.

Perfect beach vacation

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a fantastic relaxing beach vacation. The condo was clean and the property was beautiful. The only issue was the beach service provided was challenging getting a good spot because they allowed certain people or groups to hold spots in the front the day before and told us we couldn’t do that! But everything else was perfect!

Perfect

My granddaughter and I stayed 4 nights in this beautifully decorated and comfortable condo. Our view of the beach was lovely and we were directly over the pool. We enjoyed the many choices on the TV at night, and the kitchen was well appointed with everything we needed, including a functioning ice maker in the fridge. The shower was spacious, the whole place was very clean, and the king bed was comfortable, although a tiny bit soft for my liking. We were just near the fitness center on the same floor, and fairly close to the elevator. I like the fact that the property is gated, and it was easy to find a parking spot each day when returning from outings. I wouldn't recommend very small or lively children in this unit due to glass table and mirrored wall. My granddaughter is 12 and quiet, so it was perfect for us and felt very spacious. I could tell that the owners of this condo put love into the decor, it was really a pretty unit. I would rent here again, if I ever come back.

Owners provided beach chairs, extra pillows, etc. Which are thoughtful extras. The desk staff were welcoming and helpful and common areas were kept clean. Location is off the main highway where there is lots of road work. Henderson Beach State Park is nearby and worth the $6.00 fee. Great experience overall.

Perfect condo

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We loved staying here. Only problem the ice machine was not working and the refrigerator would not shut so the light kept on. We had to throw away bad meats that was warm over night and the fridge had a big puddle of water from the condensation and ruined some fresh vegetables. Sofa bed sheet was dirty and had sand all over. Other than that the view and location was peaceful and beautiful!

Honeymoon

We had a great time. Quiet and relaxing stay. The beach service was great, it made our beach time so easy. The property was very nice and clean. We grilled out one night and enjoyed sitting in the grill area it's a nice piece to the property. Our room was beautiful couldn't ask for a better experience. We arrived on April 24th so I can imagine our experience may differ from summer. With that said it is still a beautiful place to spend your vacation.
