This property has it all, pool, beach and all restaurants and attractions 5 to 10 mins away. The townhome is stocked with everything you’ll need and Mark is so nice! Will definitely book again soon.
3 adults, 1 ten year old and 1 two year old slept comfortably. The private beach is literally a 3 minute walk away. Possibly best low occupancy beach in the area, your aren't competing with an entire high rise complex, just a few dozen or so condos.
The condo was nice and clean. Mark was pleasant to talk to and gave any information we needed. We enjoyed the views and relaxing on the beach. I would definitely recommend marks Condo to anyone looking to stay in Destin.
Such an adorable place. Owner is so nice. Most equipped place we’ve ever stayed at. Short walk to the beach. Pool right out back door is nice. Has everything! Will be back for sure.
Our entire trip was excellent. Accommodations were exactly as described and just amazing. On the beach, just walk through parking area and you are on the beach. Host was amazing. Townhouse has everything you need to prepare meals for the family. Beds very comfortable. Highly recommend! If available when you are booking, book! Thank you Mark for a wonderful week vacation for our family. We will be back and hope your place is available again. Thank you!!!
Adorable condo and well stocked, located just steps from the beach, pool is right outside the patio door. The community is gated and convenient to retail and restaurants. The host is incredibly kind. I rate 10/10, do not hesitate to stay here.
Great location! Parking right out the front door. Super short walk to the beach with complementary beach chairs and umbrella. Nice pool right out the back door. House was super clean with everything provided down to hand sanitizer, cleaning wipes, fully stocked kitchen, linens, beach towels, games and DVD’s. Beds were super comfy and we had plenty of room for our family….felt right at home. Thank you so much for the best family vacation ever! Hope to stay here again!
We booked this condo for a family vacation with our toddler and my husband’s mom and sisters. The space was the perfect size for us and it was better than the pictures! The pool is literally right out the back door which was very nice since we had a 2 year old to entertain. The beach was only a parking lot away so it was nice to not have to walk miles to get there. Taylor, the chair service guy, and his crew were extremely helpful with getting us in a good spot. He would even set our chairs out for us before we ever came out for the day. Traffic was something crazy when we were there, but this condo is located right in the middle of town so you weren’t in traffic to long when it was time to go somewhere! Mark is a great host, he even took the time to come by and look for a baby gate for me. If we go back to Destin, we will definitely be contacting Mark!
This property is fully stocked and super convenient to the beach and pool. They had all you needed from beach towels and toys to a everything you would need in the kitchen. Just bring your own K-cups and toiletries and you are set to have a great vacation. The pool is just steps away and the beach is a short walk across the parking lot. The lake is close as well and has turtles and fish. This property was the cleanest I have seen and the owner was awesome. All my questions were answered promptly and I knew exactly what to expect when I got there. I 100% recommend this property especially if you have kiddos.
Amazing host, beautiful condo, convenient location - everything you need for a great vacation.
