Great location and very clean!
Loved the location and our unit was very clean. I do think it needs to be updated only bc I was nervous looking at the pictures when I booked. But I still say 5 stars!!!! As far as the resort itself, everyone was very nice. Resort was clean also.

Love the room and view
Everything was great!! The couch bed was not comfortable, there was a few tiny things wrong. The chair legs to table need tightened up. All the construction was overwhelming. The air conditioner wasn't very cold but it was very hot there. I was very happy with the place over all.

Thank you so much for your feedback! I'm really glad to hear that overall you were very happy with the place and that everything went great.
I appreciate you pointing out the areas that could use some attention—the couch bed comfort, the loose chair legs, and the air conditioning. We’ll definitely look into those to ensure a better experience for future guests. I also understand how the ongoing construction could feel overwhelming, and I’m sorry for any inconvenience it caused during your stay.
Your comments are incredibly helpful, and we’re always working to improve. We’d love to welcome you back again soon!

Cleanliness
The unit was in a good location. The only downfall was that some of the towels and the master bedroom sheets had some stains on them. But other than that, it was a great place to stay and we will be coming back to SunDestin!

Overall condo was ok. The "resort" is in desperate need of updating. Dark hallways and large bugs are not a good combination.
Pool area is small in comparison to amount of units in complex.

Great room
The room was great except for plugs not working. The TV in the bedroom didn't work no biggie since we weren't in the room much. The couch had stains. The indoor pool needs to be skimmed more since there is no skimmer for bugs n dirt to go to. Otherwise great area great price

Nice Condo, but small!
Condo was very small and couldn't figure out all the doors to the bathroom. It was clean and had plenty of supplies to last our week. A big suggestion would be to add some rugs. Rugs help set the rooms off and there were none. I'm weird about walking on bare floors, so I had to wear socks. Also the bed could be improved as it was a thin mattress with no footboard.
All instructions were easy to follow and appreciated the texts on check-in and check-out!

issues
No complaints. Just a note of some issues.
Bathroom Sink near the bedroom fills with water and slow to drain.
Bathtub while showering fills and slow to drain
Toilet in bathroom of shower loose from floor and needs to be bolted down tighter
kitchen sink faucet loose and needs tightening.
I would install new toilets that are height for seniors.
Overall great stay.

Nice 🙂
We had a good stay with little issues. The room was beautiful and clean and the staff was great. Only issues we had that would have made our stay great were ....
The beds were horribly uncomfortable. Super stiff and we could feel the springs all nite long which prevented us from getting much sleep at all. Had our beds been more comfortable we would have stayed longer but after a few days we were sleep deprived and had to leave.
We really only had one other complaint about our stay and that was do to not being allowed to used our umbrella on the beach in front of the resort. We were directed to the vacant property down the beach and told we could only use a tent in front of our resort.
Because of this we chose to go to a private beach instead of utilizing the beach in front of our resort.
These were really the only issues we had and overall we made the best out of the situation that we could.
My hubs and I spent a few days at Sundestin resort in early October. The room was as expected, the weather was gorgeous with emerald blue water. I was a little disappointed in the beach view from the room’s balcony because it was a side view and more of a view of the next door condominium. But the main thing that bothered me was that you could not sit close to the water on the beach without renting from the chair and umbrella company. The last full day we were there, they had put out chairs/umbrellas 4 rows deep. If you have a tent, it must be behind their umbrella and chair placements. You cannot use your own umbrella. To get to the water, you had to navigate through the maze. This is Something to note before renting from SanDestin. Apparently this was common because as far as the eye could see, the beach was full of umbrellas in front of other resorts. Just something to remember should you visit.

The condo was clean, but small .We couldn't figure out all the doors to the bathroom., Certainly not necessary. There were no rugs on any of the floors and I'm weird about walking on bare floors, so I wore socks the whole time. Rugs would brighten the rooms up also. Text instructions were great for check-in and check-out. Everyone was nice to work with.

Book It... the chairs that is.
The place is small, but for the 2 of us it was perfect, and lets be honest, you won't want to be in the room. The views were great. You did not even have to leave the room to watch the sunset. So many places to eat within walking distance. The sand is amazing. BUT BOOK THE CHAIRS!!! The sand is reserved for all the condos between the buildings and the water... if you don't want to carry your chair a city block, rent the chairs and enjoy!
