Comfortable condo with easy access to beach in a less busy area of Destin! Just our style. Even when the pool area was busy, inside condo was quiet. Our teens enjoyed the pickle ball courts.

Thank you so much, Tracy! I am thrilled you enjoyed your stay and hope you can visit the beach again soon!
The condo was very nice and clean. My only complaint is that upon check-in, thereās a 20 per day resort fee, which added up to over 100 for our stay ā something I wasnāt expecting. Also, the two complimentary chairs are just basic fold-up beach chairs, not the beach service chairs I had assumed theyād be. Overall, itās a great condo and weāve stayed at The Islander before, but those two unexpected details caught me a bit off guard.

Weāre glad to hear you found the condo very nice and clean and that you enjoyed your stay at The Islander!
We always want guests to have all the details upfront, which is why the daily resort fee charged by the building is clearly noted in the listing and check-in information. That fee is collected directly by the resort and goes toward maintaining the amenities and facilities all guests enjoy during their stay.
The complimentary beach chairs we provide are intended as an extra convenience for guests to use at no charge. The beach service rentals available on-site are optional and offered separately through the beach vendor.
We appreciate you sharing your thoughts and are glad you enjoyed the condo overall
