We stayed with our family of four, and our kids each brought 2 friends. Plenty of beds for everyone, and having 3 full bathrooms was perfect.Everything you need nearby, including grocery and restaurants. This unit was clean and the kitchen was well appointed. Plenty of parking, short walk to the beach. We would definitely stay here again.

Amazing Condo

Weā€™ve been coming to the Destin area since 2009 and this was our best condo yet. The place was huge and fit our family and friends perfectly. We liked the extra touches like a separate ice maker, high-end backpack cooler for the beach, along with a Dyson vacuum to keep the sand to a minimum. Highly recommend this condo when headed to the Destin area.

Great Springbreak!

Ariel Dunes is a perfect location for beach and restaurant access. Weve stayed in this building in the past however this was the best condo as it was on the end and had larger balcony and more views of the beach. 3 full baths were optimal for 6 people. Very nicely furnished and accessorized.

October weekend

The unit was as described. The balconies offered amazing views and were comfortable to enjoy. The property has an amazing beverage bar onsite. I do suggest if you are staying for more than a few days you will need to purchase your own dish detergent and washing detergent as they only give you a starter kit. Overall the place was very nice.

From the communication prior to our visit, during, and check-out, everything was a breeze. The property is literally as pictured with a welcoming environment as soon as you enter! Itā€™s well-equipped with everything you need in the kitchen - if youā€™re trying to cook and have the at-home experience. It actually felt like home! You also canā€™t beat the location and beach access! The on-site restaurant was great as well. 10/10, highly recommend!!!!

Great Condo, But Remember to Bring Your Own Supplies

We had a wonderful stay at this condo! The space was clean, comfortable, and well-located. The amenities were top-notch, and the views were absolutely stunning. However, one thing to note is that youā€™ll need to bring your own beach items like chairs and towels, as these arenā€™t provided. Additionally, while the condo has a fully equipped kitchen, youā€™ll want to bring your own seasonings and cooking basics, as they arenā€™t stocked. Overall, a fantastic place to stay, but just keep these few things in mind for a smoother experience!

The place quickly felt like home

Me and my daughter needed a break from New York and decided to get away for a little while. Ended up staying for 2 months. The apartment was better than I expected. Clean, well stocked with everything that we needed, conveniently located, and is basically across the street from the most beautiful beach. It quickly felt like home and a place that we did not want to leave. The management company was attentive, always available and extremely helpful. I highly recommend it and hope to have the opportunity to come back.

This corner property was FABULOUS! Finding the built in standalone icemaker was a bonus for those mixed drinks LOL. Each bedroom was clean and appointed well. We couldn't locate the can opener and lickity split one was delivered right to us. Other than that the kitchen stocked items were plentiful! The bunk bed room I was in the only downside for me personally the mattress was quite firm. My friends all said the other 2 beds were super comfy. Again, those things are different for everybody, so take that for what it is worth. All in all we all agreed if we do staycations in that area we would rent that exact property again. Those beach views were GREAT!!!

Inaccurate bed listing but great location

Our first impression was unfortunately a let down due to the beds being inaccurately listed. We immediately noticed upon arrival that the bedroom that is advertised as having a queen bed is actually a full size bed. There is a queen size bed, but it is the lower bunk in a different bedroom. My parents should not have had to share a bed that is the size that my children used when they were small. The location is beautiful and the beach access was convenient. The condo was *mostly* clean upon our arrival. The floor mats that were provided in the master bathroom and the hallway bathroom need to be thrown away. They may be clean, as far as having been washed, but are terribly discolored and dirty looking. The once turquoise rugs were brown in appearance and honestly, just gross. So bad so, that we chose to use actual towels on the floor instead of standing on the mats. That seemed very odd to me as the rest of the condo appeared clean and nicely appointed. We did notice as we were checking out, that my youngest son, who was sleeping on the trundle in the bunk room, was sleeping on sheets that appeared to have period blood on them that apparently werenā€™t washed from a previous renter. The kitchen was well appointed with what we needed for our stay. The ice maker was a great plus as well. I would recommend having a laminated sheet that has all pertinent information on it- wifi, pool/gate codes, information on how to lock the actual door, etc.

Great location and views

We loved this property and it worked perfect for our needs. Plenty of bathroom space (necessary because we were in Destin for a wedding) and great views. Only downside were the old TVs which were actually kind of comical for this beautiful condo. The master bedroom tv didnā€™t work. We called to report this to the management company and they really tried to troubleshoot it and were very nice and helpful. Although they put in an order for someone to stop by, no one ever did. Not a big deal because we werenā€™t there to watch tv, just would have been nice when trying to get to sleep. We really loved this property!!
