Thank you so much for your feedback! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the beautiful view from the balcony and found the space clean and welcoming. We truly agree—the beach here is absolutely amazing! We’re sorry the construction impacted your stay, and we appreciate your understanding as improvements are made in the area. We hope to welcome you back soon for an even more relaxing experience!
This was our first visit to the Destin Florida area and we were not familiar with where to stay. I feel we were so fortunate to find this condo with a great ocean front view and plenty of space for two people. The beach, pools and hot tub area are well maintained and clean. We would return to this area in the future.

Wonderful stay
We had a wonderful stay from the time we arrived to the time we left !! Everyone was so helpful and perfect location .
Everything was wonderful. I didn't care for the AC unit being on the balcony. Annoying noise when trying to enjoy the sounds of the ocean.

Thank you so much for sharing your feedback! We’re thrilled to hear that everything was wonderful during your stay. We truly appreciate your note about the AC unit on the balcony. We understand how important it is to enjoy the peaceful sounds of the ocean. Your comments help us identify areas for improvement, and we’ll certainly take this into consideration for future enhancements. We hope to welcome you back soon for another relaxing getaway!
The only part of our stay that we enjoyed was the 'VIEW' from the balcony to the ocean and time spent at the beach. The HVAC unit is ON THE BALCONY!!!The entire entrance was blocked off the entire time making arrival and departure and absolute inconvenience. Each day started with construction hammering, drilling and loud noises at 8 a.m., TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE when most of the people were OBVIOUSLY there on VACATION!!! The closet door in the main bedroom was off of the track up on arrival, which I reported to the front desk. The bathroom was missing a light bulb on the vanity, the shower bar holding the curtain was rusted and nasty and the floor of the closet was not secured to the floor, you could see the half done job very clearly. The barricades for construction on the 14th floor practically blocked our room door upon entering and exiting the elevator each time. Also the elevators were filthy, the rugs looked as if they had never been cleaned, ever. The end of our hallway was a complete opening to the outside. I am not sure which cleaning service is used to clean the unit, but they clearly failed in their job. The room was nasty, I guarantee we left the room cleaner than we found it. The room smelled musty and not fresh. Do not stay at the unit! Host never responded to anything TV is OLD

We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a much better experience in the future.
Our Place had an amazing view. The place is very clean. The front desk was very helpful.

Great Space with Spectacular Views!
The condo was perfect! It was very clean, we were provided with enough towels for the duration. The views were amazing. Our only complaint was the extremely slow WiFi. We traveled with a young child and we went back to the room early wanted to watch a movie through a streaming service and it was too slow and couldn't get it to work. Other than that, everything was great. The staff was very nice, very friendly.

We were very delighted with the room. The property was in the middle of construction so there was some noise in the mornings, otherwise it was a great place to stay. Very central to lots of things.The only thing i have to complain about is the toilet off the bedroom was constantly refilling. I didnt tell the front desk, my fault, i just didnt want anyone comingbin while we were there.

Your comfort is important to us, and we hope to have the opportunity to host you again for a more relaxing experience.
Overall it was great. The condo was as it was described. The check in process was easy. We were warned about parking, the building is going through renovations and parking is limited, it was fine. WiFi is awful. It was hard when we wanted to stream something.Traveling with a 4 year old we do have to return earlier, we made it though. The condo was very clean and had everything we needed. The views from the balcony were truly spectacular!

Great stay, perfect location
Loved the beach view and sounds. Friendly staff. We met several people who have been coming there for several years and said they used to have karaoke by the tiki bar that that was great. Apparently don’t do that anymore. Should bring that back.

Tiki Bar
One of the reasons we chose SunDestin was the advertised Tiki Bar. We thought it would be a great place to have drinks without being inside with others. It wasn’t open at all during our stay. The rest of the vacation was great! Room was clean and the staff were amazing!

Always great!!
This condo is always very clean. Love this condo! Awesome views! Only problem is this is a non smoking building yet people continue to smoke on their balconies. Kind of ruins your morning when trying to look at the views
