Very convenient to the beach and pool . Our only complaint was couldn’t adjust the AC and it was hot in the bedrooms at night, but of course it was very hot the time we were down in Florida, I would highly recommend Tia property.

We had an amazing stay at this condo in Chateau La Mer! The location was perfect — quiet, relaxing, and just a short walk to the beach. The condo itself was very clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed for a stress-free vacation.One of our favorite parts was having a fully equipped kitchen so we could prepare meals exactly how we wanted instead of eating out for every meal. It really made the stay feel comfortable and convenient.The area was peaceful, which made it easy to truly relax and unwind, yet still close to restaurants, shopping, and everything Destin has to offer. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet, comfortable beach getaway!

The condo was just the right size for our family of 4. Easy access to the beach, nice pool (the jellyfish scared my daughter off the beach). Overall, we had a great week long stay and would for sure book this condo again.

It was a quick trip to Destin with the family as our exchange student was about to round out his year with the program & had never seen the ocean. It was a great trip.

This was one of the best stays I have ever had! From the location that it is from the beach, to the cleanliness of the property and house to the pool everything was exceptionally nice. We were close to all the shops and restaurants. The beds were nice and comfy the kitchen was equipped with everything you need to cook a full meal and parking was right outside of the condo.The beach location for this particular condo was a private beach location with a coded gate entry right on Miramar beach. Captain Dave’s restaurant is a 3 minute walk and had delicious food would definitely recommend trying them. We will rebook this one again!
