🌴 Off-Season Value (November–February) SNOWBIRDS
November through February is our off-season, offering quieter beaches, cooler weather, and our lowest rates of the year. Guests interested in extended winter stays are welcome to ask about special monthly snowbird pricing. During this time, associations and owners may schedule routine maintenance, updates and improvements, so there may occasionally be nearby daytime noise between November 1 and February 28. Our reduced seasonal rates reflect this possibility.

Thank you for the 8/10! We’re glad you enjoyed the easy beach access and the double balcony. If there’s anything we can do to make your next stay a perfect 10, please let us know — we’re always happy to help.
We stayed many times at destin and fort walton area, this is far best we stayed in, clean, hospitality, the beach, the pool the condo equipped with everything you need for pleasure great and awesome vacation. Plenty of space two full bathroom in case the boss, the queen and the wife need her own bathroom, lol, the best that is out the world is the balcony and the view of the beach. Just sitting there early morning or late night just listening to the beach and the wave ohhh. That's is great and you need that balcony big and spacious and this balcony it is it goes around the building from the side. You will absolutely love this place and you will never forget it or regret it.

Thank you for the perfect 10/10! It means so much to hear that, out of all your stays in Destin and Fort Walton, this one stood out as the best. We’re thrilled you enjoyed the clean condo, the hospitality, the beach and pool, and all the amenities that made your vacation easy and relaxing. And yes — that wrap‑around balcony and the sound of the waves are truly unforgettable. We’d love to welcome you back anytime.
Absolutely the best place my family has stayed. Form the views to the location, to the staff. Everything exceeded our expectations! We will definitely be back next year. Hopefully the same room! 😎
First time to Destin area. Loved being at the beach level. The unit was nice. Well stocked. Beds were good. Updated baths were great. Could use new smaller furnishings in living room.
I would stay there again.

Great condo! Exactly as pictured. Easy access to walkway to beach. We took advantage of their beach towels and beach tote. They also offered a small cooler. I always order Walmart delivery when we get there. They offered to accept delivery and put frozen items and refrigerator items in fridge. It was great not having to wait for delivery Condo was clean and furniture comfortable. Will definitely book again.

Reviewer Comments:
We knew going in that construction would be happening, but had been told it should be on the other side of the complex during our brief weekend stay in Feb. So when it started directly outside our condo on Sat morning at 6:30am we chalked it up to the nice discount we had received and the vagaries of construction work. But, when we started hearing hammers and loud talking at 6:30am on Sunday, we were unpleasantly surprised. Sunday is not a traditional construction work day and to start loudly so early was very inconsiderate. As we had our coffee on the balcony enjoying the incredible view, we had painters right off it on their scaffolding. Our college age girls were freaked out by the many ants in their bathroom. They ended up using ours most of the time. It was just for a three night stay over a weekend, so we tried killing them ourselves and then mentioned them when we checked out. The view was breathtaking and the condo very comfortable.

This condo does have million dollar views, very clean and spacious. easy access to the pool and beach. only issue was the TV's in the bedrooms. the master bedroom TV was not very clear and finding the correct remotes was a fun game. the TV in the 2nd bedroom was so small it was hard to see the screen. those are very minor things overall i give it 5 stars and would recommend this to anyone including myself in the future

Reviewer Comments:
Upon arrival the south elevator was broke. The North elevator also had issues & wouldn’t go to 2nd floor. Very difficult getting all our luggage to the room with 3 kids..up the stairs. The south elevator was broken our entire stay. The unit was clean except under the furniture & behind furniture. I found good crumbs, a fork, & clothing behind a dresser while I was trying to plug in phone chargers & a baby monitor. With that being said, our unit could have been cleaned better before we arrived. We absolutely loved the balcony & the view! Perfect unit for families with little ones. Very easy to get to the beach with little ones also. Beach service was wonderful. Beds were comfortable. Overall a wonderful experience despite the elevator & trash under furniture. We would rent this same unit again. Hopefully the word will get back & the unit will be cleaned more thorough.
