Awesome stay! Condo was gorgeous and had everything we needed for a great trip. Carole and Carl were incredibly helpful and we couldn't recommend this rental more!
Very nice unit equipped with everything you need including lots of little extras in bathrooms and kitchen. Beautiful view of harbor and boardwalk. Enjoyed all the boat activity and lights at night including fireworks! Quiet beach area and new park area within walking distance. Short drive down hwy 98 to lots of shopping and the busier beach area. Great communication with the owner who was always available. Had a wonderful stay and would come back!

Property and location are great, Enjoyed being close to everything but far enough away that its feels like your in a more private condo. Definitely have a car if your going to travel around. We hit a few different places each day and enjoyed each one. The condo has everything you need to relax amd have plenty of space for small families. We used the grill a few times which were great to have, pool was always accessible and clean. Hosts were great amd had everything covered if you needed anything. Definitely would stay there anytime we travel

It’s perfectly located near fantastic restaurants, entertainment, and just minutes from the beach. Everything you could possibly need is right at your fingertips.The hosts, Carole and Carl, were absolutely amazing—welcoming, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in making sure our stay was perfect. Their hospitality made all the difference.This place has officially become my new yearly rental spot whenever I visit Destin. Already looking forward to the next trip!

Lovely, well furnished, comfortable condo in a great location. Wonderful balcony with nice view. Two king beds (very hard to find) were very comfortable. Owner was very friendly and responsive. Only complaint is vertical blinds in both bedrooms were missing slats allowing light in rooms; more of an issue in second bedroom because of lights from across the bay. Owner indicated they are being replaced soon. Minor cleaning g issue was addressed satisfactorily with owner.

Very clean & well appointed condo & extra touches with toiletries provided in each restroom. View is fantastic & I spent great deal of time on the balcony watching the boats come & go. Communication with Carole was easy & she was quick to reply to any questions we had.

Rarely does a property exceed your expectations, but this unit really did. Fabulous views of the harbor from the unit, and the jetty from the pool including fabulous fireworks. Clean, spacious and wonderful amenities supplied by the owner. Will definitely rent again.

Condo was very, very comfortable. Love the view of the harbor, having the big screen TVs with dish network, 2 king size beds comfy mattresses, comfortable power recliners, washer and dryer in the unit with a nice side by side refrigerator and not to mention the front row seat to the fireworks show on the balcony. Thanks for such an amazing comfortable condo. Owner provided extra things just in case you forgot to bring something. Very appreciative.

Had a wonderful stay in Destin area for a little getaway. Carole and Carl have a great location and a welcoming atmosphere in their condo. Nicely decorated with plenty of room. Nice pool area as well as a sand beach area to the seawall. Public beach was next door and in walking distance. Public beach was open but under some update construction with the parking area closed off with limited parking so we had plenty of room at the beach and lagoon areas. Carole was reached easily and responded to any questions. Overall, it was one of the best experiences we have had in rental.

Property was as described. Construction outside was very loud which made sitting on the patio bad. No direct access to the Gulf to swim. Had to drive to another location. The view of the Harbor was great. Overall the stay was good.

Trudy,
Sorry for the construction, I suppose, in the city's progress. It is finally coming to an end: new bathrooms and facilities at Noriego Point are on the way! The fences will be in place for a bit longer, but access to the three beaches remains available. There are other beach accesses north, such as O'Steen Beach.
Sorry for the inconvenience, I am hoping it is about done.
Best regards,
Carl n Carole
My husband and our families had the best time at this beautifully decorated condo with more amenities than expected. Communication with Carole was exceptional which made our check in process easy breezy. The large balcony with the harbor and East pass view is accessible from the living room as well as both bedrooms. We enjoyed watching all of the boat traffic and the firework show is a bonus. Would absolutely recommend to friends as we hope to come back soon ourselves.

About the host
Hosted by Carole Shackelford
Carole and Carl have had condos on the beach for almost 30 years. They are both realtors past renters and treat customers the way they would want to be treated in Destin, Ft Walton, Navarre , Perdido Key, Pensacola Beach, or any beach property. We bring this property to you as one of our favorite all time condos. Beach Access and Harbor Views where boats are always moving, and a water taxi is right at your disposal to go to bars and restaurants without driving. We enjoy using this condo and feel it is a great place to relax and unwind and enjoy all the activity unfold in front of you.
Why they chose this property
This is one of the most happening places in Destin. It is back in Gulf Shore Drive where you are the last condo on the cape. Thursday night fireworks, shuttle to the nightlife, and access to the water to fish or sunbathe. If you brought your boat you can pull it right in front of the condo on Norriego Point near Crab Island just under the bridge.
What makes this property unique
Quiet at the end of the street, and views of the jetty's and the night life and all activities in between. 3 New grills at the pools side with hot tub and nice pool looking over the Pass Snorkelers tour by the condo enjoying the clear water. Bring your fishing rod and fish off the bulkhead near the condo.... do not forget your Florida fishing license. There is a beach just next door for swimming and relaxing on the beach. The neighborhood is away from the traffic with coffee cafe, restaurants, and gas station. Just outside the neighbor hood you will find Winn Dixie, Wallgreens, CVS, restaurants, Target, Post Office, & shopping. Destin Commons is a few miles down Why 98 with shops, restaurants, and a movie theater.
