We were in Destin for a beach wedding, so only there for a short period of time. The condo met our basic needs and access to the pool and beach worked out great. This is an old property so is a bit dated.

We booked this property for the location coming from Dallas to Destin. The host was communicative and replied quickly.The stay itself did not match the price. The place was not very clean, and we saw cockroaches. In one room the light switch didn’t work, so there was no light, and a lamp was also broken.What I disliked most: at almost 400 a night, guests are expected to wash towels, mops, and dishes. I’ve never seen that at this rate.I would not stay here again. The location is convenient, but the cleanliness, maintenance, and house rules don’t justify the cost
