Me and my girlfriend loved where we stayed. The place was cleaned and right by the beach. The host was great with communicating and check in/out was simple. I enjoyed my birthday trip and would stay here again!

The SunDestin overall was nice, they are currently working on upgrades and maintenance. The beach view was amazing but not a front view, it is on the side of the building. The rental was dirty, sand from previous renters everywhere, even inside the cabinets and the oven. (I know it’s the beach but come on). The windows were dirty with hand and fingerprints. The rug is filthy, and the furniture had crumbs, stains, and dried food. The toilet in the main bathroom off the bedroom ran and made noises constantly and had black particles in it. The exhaust vents were loud and caked with dust and debris. The garbage disposal smelled when in use. The blanket at the end of the bed had stains and smelled like spoiled milk and the bedroom closet had various linens just stuffed in it. The balcony had random piles of hair on it and a piece of corner trim that wasn’t missing from anywhere in the unit. With all that being said, I cleaned as much as I could so it was pleasant and we just dealt with everything else. On a positive note, everyone we encountered at the facility, from residents, to visitors, and all the staff, including the beach service guy, were incredibly nice and friendly, which made the stay overall great. Sometimes you have to pick your battles when on vacation.

Getaway

The view wasn’t as good as I had thought from the pictures online and although I was on the non smoking side there was someone smoking on the balcony under me. Overall had a good getaway.

Enjoyed my stay.. great unit

Didn’t fully understand the amount of construction that was taking place at this facility. In fairness it was shared upfront but it wasn’t clear what the magnitude of the construction project included. I love the unit that I stayed in. This condo is not exactly beachfront although you have a really good beach view. This unit is built at an angle to the beach

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
We were so excited for this unit. The pictures were amazing. We spent the entire week without a working fridge, the furniture is very uncomfortable, the bathrooms need updated, and there was sand everywhere upon arrival. The unit did not come stocked and we had to go buy even hand soap. Extremely disapppointed in this unit. Will gladly go elsewhere if we come back to Destin.

Disappointed in unit.

Very disappointed in how the unit was lacking normal supplies in kitchen and bath.Very scarce (none in kitchen) for a weeks stay. The cost was not justified for a condo for a week. We have stayed at SunDestin property for over 30_years..THIS IS DEFINITELY NOT AN ABBOT RENTAL. The vanities were not clean as should be. Furniture not very comfortable. Not sure if this management company is good for this property. The front desk people were nice, but could not help with our concerns. Love Destin and SunDestin used to be our go to place to stay. But having to reconsider that now.

Relaxing Vacation

We enjoyed the beach and the property. The only disappointment in the property was the availability of elevators. One was down the entire 5 days and another was intermittent and down a few times. We climbed 12 flights of stairs numerous times. Other than that all was great.

Awesome stay!

This was my birthday getaway & my man & I truly enjoyed the resort. The view was beautiful & the room had everything we needed on the inside. It was clean outside of the shower liner that needs to be replaced. Plenty of towels & the bed was comfortable. We will definitely stay here again.

This was our first time at this unit and we were very pleased in seeing it was just as described. communication was great. check in was easy. 12th floor with views of the beach from bedroom and Livingroom areas.

Sun Destin 1215

It was beautiful, clean, and no surprises in the appearance from online pictures. The only thing we wish it would have had is more linens. Only 3 washcloths and 5 towels for 4 adults. We didn’t come to do laundry every day, and not enough wash cloths to start off.
