We’ve stayed in multiple condos on this strip. The condo was nice and what we needed. Other than not having 2 full bathrooms as the other condo’s have and the door facing the ocean not closing properly, everything else was fine.

Thanks for the review. I happy the property was nice and what you needed. We'd love to have you back anytime.
The property was clean, well maintained and well decorated. It was a very welcoming environment. The location was fantastic we were steps from the beach. Our beach chairs were set up for us every morning. It was a wonderful experience we will be back🤍

Thank you so much for this wonderful review! We're so glad you loved the space and that the beach setup made things easy for you. It means a lot to hear you're already planning to come back. We'd love to have you again!
We had an amazing stay! The place was spotless, and the host was incredibly kind and considerate when we ran into a small issue. The best part was the location, the beach is literally right across the street, which made everything so convenient. We’ll absolutely stay here again!

Thank you so much for the kind words! We are so glad we were able to help when that issue came up and that it didn't put a damper on your trip. Having the beach right across the street really is hard to beat! We would love to have you back anytime.
This place was really nice. However, we noticed that whenever someone downstairs used the toilet, a raw sewage smell would linger in the apartment for 20-30 minutes.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and for the kind words about the property! We're glad you enjoyed your stay overall.
We sincerely apologize for the sewage odor issue you experienced — that is absolutely not the experience we want for our guests and we take this feedback very seriously. We have never heard of this happening before with any of our past guests and will look into it and make sure there are no issues.
We appreciate you bringing this to our attention. Thank you again for staying with us!
Loved this property! Great views from both the front and back of the property, short walk to the beach, great pool, and easy parking! Would definitely book here again. I had no direct contact with the owner, but the management company responded promptly when we needed something after check-in. Top notch service!

Thank you for great review. We work hard to provide the great service that our guests have come to expect. We hope you choose us for your next beach escape.
Nice place and clean. EXCELLENT location for beach access. PLUS you get beach chairs and umbrella right on beach. We have no complaints. CHECK OUT THE VIEWS!
We enjoyed our stay in the villa! The views were spectacular. Check-in and check-out was a breeze. It was my first time renting a VRBO and thought there would be hiccups in the process but it was all smooth, directions are accurate and reliable. We stayed here with parents and children and was enough room for us to all feel comfortable. Only thing I didn’t realize was that there was only one shower but wasn’t too much of an inconvenience. Beach is literally just feet away and beautiful view from kitchen/living area. We also don’t realize there was extra blankets in the sitting bench in master room until we were leaving - those would have been handy. Kitchen was fully stocked (y’all should add this to description) as I wondered if there would be pots/pans for cooking - that was a plus!

We love the Destiny Beach Villas! Can't beat the location and the beach service was a big plus! We will be back. Beautiful sunsets out back every night!
Es nuestra primera vez de visita en Destin, y de verdad que nos encanto la estadia, es un lugar muy tranquilo y acogedor, con buenas vistas, limpio, organizado y con excelente ubicacion, todo queda cerca, y el servicio es muy bueno, atentos ante cualquier inquietud...lo unica queja que tenemos es que la cama de la habitacion principal no es cómoda, esperamos puedan cambiarla, porque queremos regresar muy pronto...Sin duda alguna es un lugar para recomendar, gracias por todo!!!

Thanks for leaving a review. We hope you decide to come back and stay with us again.
This second floor with a private Cate entrance was amazing. Cute decor; very comfortable beds and very clean. Great location with a view of the beach. Main toilet needs a new in tank mechanism (took forever to refill) but that’s an easy affordable fix. We plan to stay again. Communication with the rental company was quick and helpful!

Thank you for the review! We work hard to provide each guest with a very clean condo. Maintenance will check on the toilet and make sure it is filling properly. We appreciate you staying with us and would love to have you back again.
This place was absolutely gorgeous. We had one of the best views of the gulf and beautiful view of the lake as well. You could walk right across the street to the beach. The pull out couch was even surprisingly so comfortable. Easily left with all of our clothes washed, thanks to the washer and dryer in the unit. We stayed with 3 little boys, one in a pack and play. It was perfect for us, and you could even just sit on the couch and enjoy the view. They had the kitchen fully stocked with appliances and everything was very clean. Would stay 100 times again thank you!

Great location! Disappointed that you couldn’t watch regular tv on any of the tv’s.

Thanks for taking the time to review your stay. We do provide regular tv on all the TVs in the condo. Our service provider is YouTubeTV and you get all local channels as well as over 75 of the most popular cable channels.
The location is amazing! You are right across from the beach and it’s so easy going back and forth. No onbstructed view of the gulf either!! We absolutely enjoyed our stay and would definitely visit again.

We are so happy you enjoyed your stay! Please come back anytime.
Great location and enjoyed our stay. The only issue was the parking. We put the parking passes on our dashboards but when we got back from the beach on the first day there was a tow warning on our vehicles. After speaking with the host I guess we had to fill out the pass ( this was not in any of the instructions ) there were other cars with tow warnings as well and they had passes on them that weren't filled out either. After filling out the pass we had no issues.
Property is in fairly good shape. Washer/dryer is quite old and could be replaced. Rugs were a tripping hazard and definitely need to be replaced as they are rolling up on all edges and everyone in our group tripped on them at least once. I would not attempt to sleep 6 here. It was a little tight with just 2 adults and a toddler.
Extremely close to the beach an easy 2 min walk across the street. Great views of the ocean from the small balcony. Parking is great, while not reserved there was no problem finding a space close to the unit.
Overall, 4/5.
Thank you for leaving a review! We agree that the views are the best. Please come back and stay with us soon!
