Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Naked (boxers and shirt, don't want to scare the children)coffee every morning on the deck. The free chairs where a great gift and the attendants very helpful as was the desk staff. Beautifully decorated. Convenient to our favorite shopping and dinning. Pool was at the back door and beach was a skip and a jump past the pool and tennis courts. A short walk on the beach to the Destin pass for snorkeling the sea wall and fishing. Thank you all for making it a wonderful vaka.

The Master Bedroom mattress could use an upgrade. both sides of mattress have a dip where you lay and a ridge in the middle. Foam pad could help.

Nice unit, very crowded beach.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The unit was very clean; Couch and chairs in living area quite comfortable, kitchen small but efficient for short stay (knives are excellent, which is very unusual for rentals). Master bed very comfortable, but pillows need upgrade. Sleeper sofa very disappointing with springs missing and mattress quality low. Gulf water is beautiful but beaches are very crowded (of course, our stay was during July 4 weekend so this was not unexpected). Pools are kept quite clean, nice pickleball courts, no other amenities to speak of.

Our First Trip to Destin but Not our Last!

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: Our family of five adults had a FABULOUS time in Destin, but what made it so great was the beautiful condo Unit 508! The remodel of this unit was everything the owner claimed it to be. The view was absolutely picture perfect, one that I'm framing. The resort grounds were beautifully maintained, the pool and hot tub were clean every day, the grill area was lovely and located right by the ocean, and the walk to the beach from our condo was convenient and short. Having two beach chairs and an umbrella available to us on the beach during our stay was wonderful and greatly appreciated. Our family had zero negative comments about our accommodations and the resort. We will be back!!! Thank you so much!!

Lovely view

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Condo 508 had a lovely view of the ocean. The confo was clean, but it was not the most updated condo. In the kitchen, the utinsel drawer stuck and squeaked when you opened it. The resort amenities were very good, except the basketball court is on the tennis court, and that interrupted our play. They had eight pickle ball courts, which were nice but not all used at the same time, so one of them should really have the basketball court. The two pools were lovely, but a little warm in July. The location was lovely, the sand was very white. The ocean was very clear and the temperature of the water was perfect. We were close to the west harbor to watch boats go in and out. We also watched fireworks there over the harbor on Thursday night. The condo only gives you two rolls of toilet paper, and a couple packets of dishwasher soap everything else has to be bought. Overall it was a very nice place.

Disappointed

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Room was clean but has a dark ambience to it. The Islander property as a whole is starting to feel run down after coming here for 10 years. Elevators are outdated, one was non-functional the entire stay. The other feels likes it’s going to stop working any minute. The bathrooms by the pool were not working and closed. The stairwells by the trash chutes were dirty and had remnants of people’s garbage liquid stains on them. They ran out of space at the beach one day that they had to put our umbrella and chairs near th trash can furthest from the water that was possible. It was a disappointing stay this time for sure.
Response from VrboOwner on 15 Jul, 2023
Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear that you were less then pleased with the unit that you stayed in. We will make sure to reach out to the Owner's and give some recommendations for our future guest bookings. We do try our best to make sure that our guest feel at home when they come to visit us and we want to be sure that they are comfortable. We do apologize for the condition of the property but our common area cleaner tries to stay on top of things as much as possible. Unfortunately, we have no control over mechanical issues when it comes to the elevator but we have been working very hard to get this issue sorted out. We hope that you will consider being a guest of ours in the future.
