Great place to stay!

Overall a good stay. The beds are a little hard, internet was slow, stove missing two knobs. We enjoyed the heated pool and the beach was easy to access. Would recommend having pamphlets or printout of some restaurants and things to do in the area. Overall clean, great for our family. We would definitely stay there again!

Nice place

It was a nice place, but the bed in the master felt like we were sleeping on plywood. There wasn’t a ton of things to bake with. We had to borrow things from my sister’s condo just to make a casserole. The seating area on the porch was ok, but not a ton of seating. It was a great location relative to the big pool; it overlooked it.

the images shown on the listing have the same layout as the apartment with a few differences. the neighborhood and home were nice, however, it was quite a distance to the beach. it’s about 6 minute walk to the pathway that arrives at the beach. it is however, pool side,though you have to walk around the building to get there. property manager however was very friendly and helpful. would recommend if you don’t mind the walk. overall would stay again

Can not use Master Shower

The afternoon prior to departing to the rental we received a email that the master shower was not to be used. This was a problem with 6 adults and 2 children. We did enjoy our time here but going to this part of the coast was like leaving Atlanta and coming to Atlanta, trafic is terrible.

The Good: Location, 10 min walk to the beach. Overlooking pool Nice layout Screened porch The Bad: ~Broken Dishwasher - 3 phone request to fix (no response) ~Horrified with pandemic that previous dishes weren't washed as after we had eaten and loaded dishwasher saw that dishwasher pod was still in dishwasher from previous "wash". Gross & very concerning! ~Shag carpets in bedrooms need to be replaced with tile or flooring. Carpets are dirty. ~A few sets of plastic dishes for children would be nice.

It was just ok

We had a fantastic week in Mirimar. The beach was beautiful and the resort itself is fantastic. And the price is right for the area. But.......... Prior to our arrival we're informed that our unit with 2 bathrooms may be without a shower as it is being redone. The property manager "hoped" it would be complete prior to our arrival. It was not. We checked in on Saturday and the update was that it would be complete on Monday. The contractor didn't show. We finally had a second shower by half way through our visit. The biggest issue was the work literally only took an hour to complete and that the property manager basically told me "oh well, I can't control the contractor's schedule" Some notes on the unit itself: The pictures show a beautiful pool right outside the unit. The pool is beautiful but is accessed by walking completely around the building. It is an easy 10 minute walk to the beach. Be aware that there are a fair amount of stairs to go down to the beach and back up to walk back. There is a small amount of parking closer to the beach access to minimize your walk if you want. I used the White Diamond beach service located there and they were fantastic. (I sent multiple messages to the property manager prior to our stay asking about parking and got no reply) The furniture is tired and needs replaced. The stove had knobs completely broken off rendering 2 burners unusable. Most of my unhappiness lies with the property manager. Poor communication with no concern for your satisfaction once they have your money. All in all the stay was great but regardless I just would avoid Best Beach Getaways whenever possible. (FYI this is not a knee jerk review. I waited 2 weeks to let everything settle)

Great property!

We really enjoyed this property and would likely return to hidden dunes sometime again if we were going to stay in Destin. One thing to note, there is an image of the workout facility in the listing, and the cottages we stayed in did not have access to it. Not a big deal overall, but it definitely changes the amenities situation somewhat. Thanks again!

Nice property, we would stay again.

The condo was nice and served the need for the 7 of us. Although we felt that the furnishings could be more up to date and comfortable, the property Manager Delphine called to let me know there are updates coming soon to this condo. One major complaint is the spiral staircase. It’s very narrow and hard for adults to go up and down. Air conditioning was amazing and cooled the unit very nicely. Pool was beautiful and well kept as were the grounds. Over all a wonderful vacation in a very nice location. We would definitely stay here again.
