This place was five star. Everything was clean, the beds were so comfy. Jeffry anticipated our every need, both in check-in and in the stay. The couches and chairs were inviting. The balcony was amazing. We only put about 16 miles on our car for the four days we there because everything was so close and convenient. Our one-year-old grandson thoroughly enjoyed the pool, as we did we.We loved our visit and plan to come back!!!

Had a smoke alarm start beeping literally as I got in bed around midnight. It was late so I didn’t want to bother the host but I couldn’t sleep because of it, so I did, and he responded very quickly! Even had maintenance come check it out the next day! Beautiful view! Can’t beat it!! Look forward to staying there again!

The location was great. The condo is as pictured. The view is beautiful. Open concept and mirrors make it feel bigger. the condo itself is well situated for beach and pool access. Parking was very convenient. Elevator was really fast and provided luggage carts were very helpful. Beds and bedding were comfortable. The owner has decorated with her own artwork and that was a nice touch. We would stay here again. We had an issue with the TVs - they were not equipped for netflix/hulu etc. However, they fixed the main TV quickly. Also, the condo is listed as having half baths besides the main bathrooms and there are only two bathrooms.

What a wonderful find in Destin! This unit is right on the beach, first floor with outstanding views. Easy access to everything you need including pool, beach access, grilling station, chair rentals, trash disposal, and parking. Great location in the center of everything - can even walk to restaurants. The owner made everything easy with no issue with getting in or understanding instructions for the unit. I think you would not be disappointed at all with this rental!!

Beautiful Condo- great location

We felt welcomed before we even got to Destin. Got a phone call from Jeffry, the property owner, wanting to ensure we had the necessary information before arrival. And her communication continued to be excellent. The condo is lovely- beautifully decorated and very clean. The kitchen is fully equipped - had everything we needed. Beds comfortable. Balcony was a favorite location for breakfast and evenings..so relaxing. The location is excellent…literally steps from the beach, and short walk to Back Porch restaurant. Pete, the beach attendant for the condos, is wonderful- very accommodating and helpful! Can’t say enough about this beautiful place. Hoping to stay again.

About the host

Hosted by Jeffry W. Armstrong

Host profile image
We are a 'divided' household with one from 'Ole Miss' and one from 'Mississippi State'. Both of us started coming to Destin for vacations when we were just kids and NOW in our next 'kid' life, we spend about 50% of our time either fishing or 'beaching' in Destin.

Why they chose this property

Location! Location! Location! That describes Destin Gulfgate perfectly. Destin Gulfgate is right in the middle of Destin....It is close to everything. We also bought into Gulfgate because of the quality of construction and the size of the units. Since our family likes to cook, we thought that the size of the kitchen allowed for family gathering in planning and executing the preparation of meals. Gulfgate is a community that is willing to work to keep the property at its very best with up to date amenities for its owners and rental guests.

What makes this property unique

Since Destin Gulfgate is only 65 units, its 465 feet of beachfront property.....right on the Gulf of Mexico, allows for everyone using our beach to be comfortable and not crowded. We have one of the best beach services available in Destin and your beach set up of two chairs and a umbrella will be calling you from the time you get up in the morning until the sun is almost going down. The new zero-entrance swimming pool and fitness center will be on your list of MUST DOs!!! Don't forget that with weather permitting, leave your sliding door open to get the benefit of the gentle wave action putting you to sleep at night.......what a great asset of being on the first floor(second level)........also being able to just use the stairway(and not go through the office or use the elevator) is something that makes one feel like they are in an island paradise all to themselves. Some of the other activities that you will enjoy outside, but close to our condo are the following:
The Track Amusement Park is just a very short walk across the street. The Big Kahuna's Water Park is less than 1 mile down the 98 Highway. The Destin Harbor Fishing Fleet, the largest Charter Boat port in Florida, is less than 2 miles away and we can offer good tips on who to charter with. There are 12 World Class Golf courses in the area as well as an easy public course. Destin Commons Village Shopping has many great shops, Bass Pro Shop, Hard Rock Cafe, Bonefish Grill, a Rave Movie theater and others nearby. Silver Shells Outlet Center, the largest Designer Outlet shopping in is within a few miles. One of the newer Italian restaurants is only a mile away. Put it on your list for sure.........'MIMMOS'
