Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My three teenagers and I had a wonderful 4 nights at the Islander. It was the first condo in Destin where we have stayed that was not beachfront, so we were a bit uncertain, however this is now our favorite! The westerly view was perfect for relaxing with a view of the beautiful sunsets! It felt more private! We all loved the exposed concrete floors also! The condo layout and furnishings met our needs perfectly.

The unit itself was very clean, bed was comfortable, well stocked kitchen, and very pleased overall. The front desk staff were very helpful and we were able to use their computer to print up our flight boarding passes. The extra beach chairs were helpful too. If there was any down side, it was the fact that the beach was very crowded and small.

The kitchen was stocked with everything needed. The property was very well maintained and the staff friendly. Having the beach chairs included was a huge bonus. I brought my 2 teenage sons for Spring Break and we all had a great, relaxing vacation. Only complaint is the basketball goal is very old and broken down, but that is a property issue and does not reflect on the condo itself
