Having the beach so close was fantastic. Being on the 4th floor in close proximity to an elevator made wheelchair access pretty easy. Overall good communication and accommodations. There was active construction throughout the day that made it near impossible to relax in the room, so ask about that before booking.

Girls Trip

The condo was clean, but I did find an empty bottle of pop under the master bed. The manager responded quickly and I very much appreciated that. Make sure you bring your own toilet paper because when you stay in a condo that can fit 10 people you need more than the 3-4 rolls they provide. I would guess that some of the leftover toilet paper was what the prior customer left. Other than that, we had a great relaxing time and the area was beautiful.

Disappointed

As family entered home, apparently no one cleaned after last guests. Beds unmade, dog hair everywhere and dirty bathrooms. We left a message to manager who was quick to remedy the problem however they did a poor job in cleaning. Dog hair remained on the rug in living room. The place itself was roomy and beautiful too bad the initial experience left a lasting impression. We made the best of a bad situation and had a lovely time in Destin.

Just to clarify, we do not have dog hair in our condo. I personally went to check out this situation. We have a new area rug that has some shedding. We have apologized for our cleaning crew being late that day. This has never happened before.

Captain Wayne's

Captain Wayne's is a nice condo being stocked really well, however the cleaning service needs to be reviewed. Upon our arrival we were greeted with a dead cock roach inside the front door. We also had to clean the toliets as they were nasty. But the worst problem was pet hair everywhere. I know pets are not allowed but it looked to be cat hair on couch cushions. We vacuumed and got 2 cannisters full of either dog or cat hair. Other than these cleaning issues it was a very nice condo.

The location of the condo is great with pool access and beach access being accessible and easy this was huge having 3 small children with us. The condo is in a great location close to everything. The photos in the listing were accurate to a degree and the condo was clean or at least to the standard we are used too. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was stocked to meet our needs. We had issues with the smoke detectors tripping when we cooked pizza in the oven which was strange as they werent burnt or smoking. They use a halo water detection company when one of the sensors detects water it turns off the water to the entire unit. I only had to call once to have the water turned back on, and then we avoided the sink where the problem seemed to be in the master bathroom. Overall the condo met expectations as far as the room goes. What we didn't know going in was the entire condo was under exterior renovation and there were construction crews using wheel grinders and cutting tools from 8 in the morning to 5 in the evening. Trying to enjoy your room with intense constant grinding noises was to say the least difficult. After 5 days we were all in extreme sleep deficits as our 1 year old baby was unable to nap at all thus no one really slept well during our stay. We ended up leaving before our stay was up to avoid another sleepless night. All in all the condo was comfortable and clean but tanquil and relaxing it was not.

Destin

Great location but the check in process was difficult. Although check in time had already passed, we did not receive information regarding check-in. I both messaged and called property owner and left messages. I contacted VRBO and they also said they could not reach owner and offer to book us somewhere else. I did get a reply within 30-45 minutes from the owner and an apology. I was beginning to worry that our groceries would go bad. During our stay, we found that the coffee maker did not work. The dishwasher was not attached to the counter and kept leaning forward out from the surrounding cabinets. Finally, we left the condo at 7am, well before check out; however the PIN code quit working and we could not reenter to do a final sweep to make sure nothing was left behind. Luckily we had all our bags and belongings, otherwise, we would have needed to contact the property owner again and been delayed in getting to the airport for our flight. A separate note, many of the units here have chairs and umbrella beach service included in their rental and this unit does not. It would be a nice touch if that were included. Overall great location and beach, which are most important things for this trip but was not as good an experience as it could have been.

Construction was going on the exterior of the condominium. This was not disclosed to us. The balcony was not usable as it was covered in paint and grit from the workers. The noise was pretty disturbing all day and it started very early in the morning. The condo was beautiful,

4/10 Poor

Liked: Listing accuracy
Disliked: Cleanliness
Our recent stay in Destin was unfortunately a very frustrating experience, primarily due to factors that significantly impacted our comfort and ability to relax.The most disruptive issue was the constant construction noise. It was loud and persistent enough that we could not use the balcony at all, which was one of the main reasons we chose this property. Instead of enjoying the view and fresh air, we were forced to stay inside. The balcony furniture had also been moved inside which made it difficult to enjoy family time. We were the only tenants in this side of the building-this condo should not have been rented. Cleanliness was also a major concern. Upon arrival, we found that several of the dishes in the cabinets were dirty and clearly had not been properly cleaned before our stay. The bathrooms were in poor condition as well and did not appear to have been thoroughly serviced.To make matters worse, we discovered old vape pens left behind, suggesting that the unit had not been properly inspected or cleaned between guests. This raised additional concerns about overall hygiene and attention to detail.Unfortunately, these issues took away from what should have been a relaxing vacation. With better communication about construction and a higher standard of cleaning, this could have been a much better experience.

My two best friends and I stayed to celebrate our birthdays and my bachelorette weekend. The condo was perfect. Clean, plenty of space and centrally located. We loved the beach and pool access. The condo had everything we needed except laundry detergent but we grabbed it from the store up the street. The check-in process was smooth and the communication between the host and I was seamless. I’ll definitely return with the hubby for a summer getaway.
