We enjoyed our stay very much. Millie was very quick to respond with any questions I had. The condo was very clean and smelled so good when we walked in. The location is very convenient to the beach and restaurants. Brett was also very kind when setting up the umbrella and chairs. I would highly recommend staying here.

Great location, responsive host

The condo was in the perfect location, great views, and in a very safe building and area. The host was so responsive and extremely communicative - probably the best I've ever had in my many stays with these types of booking sites. The layout of the unit was perfect for families or 2 couples, the pictures are as described. There were some minor things I thought could have been a deeper clean (dusty lamps and a dead fly in the shower) but overall a really nice place and I would return!

Great location

We loved the location, great views. It was nice having the on site restaurant and beach bar as an option and just across the road from the beach. The property in general could use some maintenance work but was all functional and nice enough. The pool was shaded from about 2:00 pm on…made it a little chilly for afternoon swimming. If you plan to cook in, you may want to bring a skillet. We made do but cooking for 5 in a 6 inch skillet is challenging! We did have one issue with the a/c and maintenance was there to fix it immediately. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and would stay again.

Fantastic property, beautiful view, convenient location, outstanding owner!

Surfside is amazing and has all the amenities anyone could be looking for, in a location that is right across from the beach and very close to shopping and restaurants. Millie was great to work with and very friendly (even though she and were dealing with a hurricane (Ida) during our stay! The unit is well decorated and has a tremendous view of the pool down below and the Gulf right across the street. Highly recommend Surfside in general and this condo and owner in particular!

The perfect beach getaway!

First off, I would consider myself someone who has traveled quite a bit and it was one of the easiest check-ins I’ve ever done. Front desk knew exactly who I was and I had my parking pass and wristbands within a couple minutes. The room was very clean and exactly like the pictures. Room is on the side of the resort but you still get a great shoreline view with the sun rising right outside your bedroom window. You are within a mile of anything you may need with a great restaurant attached at the bottom of the resort. The beach is perfect and Millie has two complimentary beach chairs and umbrella ready on the beach instead of paying for them! Millie was great throughout the entire process, we didn’t have any problems at all but I know if we did that she would be quick to resolve any issues we had! I highly recommend!

About the host

Hosted by Millie Lusco

Host profile image
Millie and Tommy we live in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Destin is our second home. Our family has been coming to Destin for years to vacation. Destin is so beautiful, we just love the area! So, we decided to purchase our own personal unit in 1994. We looked at several condo's, but I absolutely fell in love with Surfside. The design of Surfside is different than any other high rise resort in Destin. It's a very unique building. Every room has sliding glass doors that open onto a spacious balcony/patio with unobstructed views of the GULF OF MEXICO.

Why they chose this property

We've owned our unit since 1994 and every year, fall more in love with our second home! Surfside is a family oriented resort with many amenities for an entire family to enjoy. We decided to purchase 3 rental units at Surfside because we truly take pleasure in providing such a fun, relaxing atmosphere for other families. We enjoy the area so much, that we spend every one of our summer's in Destin. One look at the beach and the beautiful waters of the Gulf, and you will understand why Surfside is such a staple in our lives

What makes this property unique

Inside Hallways, Restaurant on-Site, Hair Salon, Massage Therapist , and Fitness Room,
Outside eating as well. Sports Deck, and a Wedding and Party Venue all on the 1st floor.
Outside Parking and Covered Garage.
Each room had a sliding glass door that opens up to the balcony. Washer & Dryers inside the unit.
Surfside has a private beach and is the only condo that a Sky bridge that takes you to one of the worlds most beautiful beaches.
