Great condo with a great location. Just inside Destin and close to everything including Henderson Beach State Park. Loved the big patio for enjoying the beginning and end of each day. The grounds were well kept and the pool area was really fun!

Angie, we are pleased to know that you enjoyed an easy rental experience while staying in this great two-bedroom, two-bath condo. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.
Very happy with the condo, the photos and reviews lived up to the expectations. Very clean, provided with everything that was listed. Always had a place to park. Pool area is plenty big although the large pool was very cold and only the smaller one was heated. Hot tub was always crowded. The complex overall is dated with mismatched decor but kept very clean, very friendly staff. Restaurant and bar area is chaotic most evenings, lots of noise with karaoke, bar not really a relaxing adult atmosphere. Destin has some good shopping and beautiful beach just a mile up the road is Henderson Park.

Our two year old grandson enjoyed the heated pool and zero entry lagoon pool. The beds were very comfortable and bedrooms and bathrooms were spacious. We appreciated the new kitchen appliances. The balcony was the most spacious one we have ever had with such nice furniture.
