My husband and I truly enjoyed staying at this beautiful resort. We stayed Jan-Feb 2025. The Palms Of Destin is a friendly, pretty, clean place I would highly recommend to my family and friends. I loved the rooms and the gorgeous pool area. We could walk to the stores, restaurants and the beach.

The property was great!!! Great staff too!!!!!Only disappointment was that the bar/restaurant was not open while out at the pool. Pool needs tables with umbrellas for those of us that are only allowed so much direct sun light.Would stay again and recommend to friends.

We decided to do a quick long weekend trip and I wanted a place with a nice pool. Pool was beautiful but beach area is public and horribly crowded. Condo was nice and does have a partial view.
The resort was clean, friendly staff, easy & quick checking
The property is nice....,as the pictures, comfort mattress , but the bunk bed in guess room.., the top one was so closed to the ceiling..., we couldn't use it
- the drier machine need to change...( it took for long time to dried out the clothes.)..
- kitchen stuff..such as , pan, pot (they're old).
Summarize: the property is nice place to stay. We have a great trip.
Beach: beautiful, white sand.....love it..! Absolutely! we will be back Destin FL

Our small family enjoys the Destin area for the beaches. This year we wanted some different and a pool for the kids to enjoy. The resort was great and the unit was perfect for us! The decor set the tone and having everything we needed was even better. One minor issue was the internet went down went down the evening before leaving and out until we checked out. Otherwise very happy with this unit and will stay again!

Overall good experience
I would have liked to be able to have my drink while sitting hot tub. Rule is: No drinks within 6ft of pool. But, it didn't ruin my vacation. I would still consider staying again.

Hi Robert, thank you for your feedback on this lovely condo! We are glad to hear you enjoyed the hot tub, and the lagoon pool at this awesome resort. All of us at Real Joy also love to have our drinks while relaxing in the hot tub, but sadly, safety takes precedence for us and all of our guests. Thank you again for your feedback, and for choosing Real Joy Vacations!
It’s perfect for 6 people, not for 8 as the describes it
It’s a perfect place to spend the vacation, close to the beach but a nice swim pool when you don’t want to go to the beach, but the junior suite it’s not for 8 people, it comes with two full bed, one over the other, are very uncomfortable for adults and bug kids, there’s not a enough space between the beds and between the ceiling and the upper bed, this beds have one tv, but it’s totally unnecessary.

Comfortable stay with good amenities
The property was nice and unit was comfortable. The view was over a shopping mall parking lot. The bunk bed was too close to the ceiling to be comfortable for my very small for his age 10 year old. My teen slept fine on the lower bunk. Otherwise we found it very roomy & comfortable for our family of 4. I liked the amenities & we did walk to the beach, but you do have to cross a major street to do so. The coffee shop was great!

Basic Condo
Destin is under construction. It's impossible to walk across the street until winter 2019 from this unit. The condo is the most basic of condos. No frills whatsoever. The staff is very unorganized. The codes to enter the building didn't work for 50% of the people we talked to. The balcony door handle was broken do I called the front desk at 3:00 pm on a Thursday (twice) but no one answered. It overlooks the Dollar Tree parking lot anyway so no big deal. Oh yeah! Dollar Tree right next door. That was a plus. We drove to the state park beach across the street each day and it was great. $6 a day for a nice clean beach was great. Getting across the street is the challenge until the road is finished. This is all of Destin on hey 98.
Ultimately we made the best of it. Destin has a few really nice places. I would like to go back when the road is done. This condo? .... Maybe upgrade a bit.

Hi Kevin, thank you for taking the time to leave us a review of your stay. We hope you enjoyed the awesome lagoon pool and onsite amenities. We would like to apologize for the inconveniences you experienced here. We did some checking and couldn’t find where you contacted us regarding any issues during your stay. The front desk at the Palms will not help you with room maintenance, Real Joy does. We are sorry that the codes for the building were not working correctly during your stay. The key cards are manned by the onsite HOA (Compass Resorts). We will forward your unit concerns to our Ops team to assess. Again, thank you for your feedback.
Everything about this property was amazing!! The condo was very clean and the view was great!! I enjoyed all of the amenities as well. The pool was a great place to go and relax after being out in the sun all day! I will definitely try to stay here again when I’m back in the area!
Nice unit! The parking wasn't the best but they were doing work on it!

We enjoyed our stay, no issues and a very nice place!
Not close to anything but a small shopping center center and they closed the pools for 2 of the days we were there. They wouldn't say why and many guests were upset. Wasn't happy on my last day, housekeeping came in our room at 8:30 when we didn't have to check out until 10:00 which made us uncomfortable but beside that mishap and the location the room was great with lots of room.
Stayed for a baseball trip. Condo was great and the pool was awesome for all ages. Only complaints are that the dryer takes up to 6 cycles to dry towels. But overall great stay.
This worked..there for a week..dryer takes some extra time..2/3 cycles most times...
Jr bedroom has big beds, just weird. Very high up and close together.. very little headroom in either bed and tvs in the way if you are tall..
But the condo is roomy and close to an elevator...good view..
