Beautiful property and our family of 4 had a great time. It’s around a 5 minute walk to get to the beach. The immediate area is not very walkable, so I recommend having a car. We plan to book again next year.

Initially we were a little hesitant about booking in this building because we stayed in St Croix the last 2 times. We were worried we wouldn't be able to see the beach and water. We couldn't have been more wrong. Had a great view of the beach, water and sunset. The master bathroom is huge, rooms were very clean, and the beds were some of the most comfortable we've ever stayed in. We've been to destin probably 15 times and we would definitely book with Jim again. Can't wait to come back. Great location to walk or stumble back from the back porch restaurant lol.

This condo is perfect in every way!! It was clean and equipped with everything we needed. Even has beach chairs! We took the beach chairs down with us and rented an umbrella on the days we needed one. The chair guys were the best I have ever seen. The grounds are clean and safe! Once you are inside the gate, no one can get in without a key fob! Even the parking garage is locked down at night! The view is gorgeous on all sides. The owners were great to work with. I am very particular about where I stay, I will definitely be back to this condo. Amazing!

Wonderful Destin property

One of the best condo resorts I’ve stayed at in Destin. Great property only minor annoyance is the key fob for all the different gates through the property to access different areas, if it could be incorporated into the wrist band wound be easier. But this place is a 10.

Great views off the large balcony, well-manicured and clean property grounds, incredible pool, expansive beach, great place for families and kids of all ages.

WONDERFUL CONDO!

Great location, clean, comfy beds - you can't ask for much more when you're on vacation! The entire resort is perfect for families! Large pool, right on the beach (private beach - which is KEY!), pickleball courts (which our group was on daily), basketball, indoor workout facility, parking - they have everything right there! We also recommend renting a cabana for the week - we shared one with 3 other families and it was so nice being able to keep pool and beach stuff there and have snacks etc plus a private bathroom! The owner was very responsive with any questions! We would definitely stay again!

Perfect and we will return.

We’ve been coming to The panhandle 30yrs++. We just left Navarre Beach April 20th renting a poorly maintained condo- Vrbo, so we were skeptical. But to our surprise it was beautiful!! Perfect and comfortable! The resort itself was amazing. It was a walk to the pool and the beach, but doable. Met my daughter’s family with grandkids. They loved their condo as well & will return !!

Amazing! Quiet! Beautiful and relaxing!

This property is beautiful! It was so quiet that we wondered if we were the only ones there. The beds were so comfortable. The view from the balcony is so pretty. We enjoyed the full kitchen and made good use of the laundry facilities. The heated outdoor pool was great! Perfect for the windy cool (high 60’s) days we visited. The kids loved the beach and it was so nice to have the beach chairs available and a few toys to play with. We loved the proximity to the Back Porch and the Candymaker store. A dedicated covered parking space was a plus. Really, we could not have enjoyed ourselves more. It was so easy to be there. My only suggestion is to make recycling available. We will definitely recommend to friends and family!

An amazing condo. Just perfect!

The condo we stayed in was beyond what we expected! Everything was perfect! The owner keeps the condo immaculate. When we arrived we didn't have to worry about runnning to the store right away. They provided us with the essentials to get you started (toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap. And more) Everything was super clean. The view from the condo is absolutely beautiful! I could have just sat on the balcony all day watching the clear turquoise water! The beach is to die for at this location. Dealing with the owner was super easy. He made the booking and the details easy. He was easy to get ahold of and prompt with any questions I had! I will be there next year! In the same condo! Thank you!!!

Highly recommend

My husband and I stayed about mid-October 2023. Jim and his sister (owners) are super nice and easy to work with. So much so, as my husband and I are electronically challenged and Jims sister, during a family gathering, interrupted her evening to call us and walk us thru the process. So kind. Jim is quick to respond to messages. Very accommodating. The condo is stunningly beautiful. Beds are super comfortable. We both have bad backs; mattresses were great quality. There was nothing we didn’t have, even down to a blow dryer and filtered water from the refrigerator!! I decided to utilize the jacuzzi tub in the master bath and the water shut off. Alarmed, we texted Jim. (we didn’t follow the condo instructions they provide) It’s a safety feature since the condo is on the 10th floor. We just called the number in the instructions and they reset the water. Easy peasy. Security on the grounds is top-notch! There are multiple condominium buildings; which can only be accessed if booked in it. There is a guard and arm gate that one must drive thru before even entering the property. There is an on-site gym. Small, but has quite a bit of equipment for its size. Enough to keep up on a routine while on vacay. It even had foam rollers and exercise mats! The grounds are immaculate and beautiful. My husband and I are beach people so we did not take advantage of the pools or hot tubs. Will book again!!
