Response from VrboOwner on 24 Aug 2026
Thank you for the five stars! We're so glad your family vacation was everything you hoped for. That beach really is something — white sand and emerald water, reachable in seconds from this home's private staircase, which only a few Mainsail condos have. Between that, the two pools and the hot tub, it's the kind of place where the days blur together in the best way. Thank you for letting us be part of your family's trip. We'd love to have you all back with us!

We absolutely loved our stay with Glam Destin. They were excellent to work with and answered all questions very quickly. The condo was very clean and our favorite part was the stairs going to the pool and beach, so convenient with the littles.

Thank you for the five stars! Traveling with little ones is its own kind of logistics, so hearing that the stairs made it easy is the best compliment this condo could get — being on the first floor with your own private staircase means the pool and the beach are both steps away, and you can head back for a nap or a snack without making it a whole production. It's a great spot for families in other ways, too — gated grounds with 24-hour security, the kids' splash pool, and groceries and Alvin's Island less than a mile off when someone loses a float. Thank you for staying with us, and we'd love to have you back!

Thank you for the five stars! We couldn’t agree more — this location is ideal. Being inside a gated community with a private staircase that leads directly to the beach makes the whole vacation feel easy.

Thank you for the five stars! We’re so glad the views from the photos matched what you experienced — and even better right on the beach! We couldn’t agree more: the pictures are nice, but nothing compares to those stunning Gulf views from the balcony or stepping straight onto the sand. That’s one of the things we love most about The Cozy Dune — the upfront Gulf views from the living room and master suite, plus your own private staircase that leads directly to the beach with no roads to cross. It really makes every day feel like pure beach bliss. It was truly a pleasure hosting you, and we’d be delighted to welcome you back anytime!

The ocean and beach were beautiful and definitely the best part of our stay. Unfortunately, the condition and cleanliness of the condo were very disappointing, especially after driving 10 hours to get there.Upon arrival, there was sand on the bedroom floors. The master bedroom had a strong musty/mildew-like odor, and the master bathroom had visible mold around the ceiling. You could also see where part of the ceiling had previously been cut out, which raised concerns about a possible underlying moisture issue. The second master shower also had visible mold, and the drain did not work properly.The couches were extremely dirty, with brown staining all over the cushions and armrests. The living room rug was also very dirty. We were so uncomfortable with the condition of the couches that we had to cover them during our stay. The floors were not properly clean.Management offered to send housekeeping back to remop the floors and clean the bathroom ceiling. We declined because the floors appeared to have been cleaned with a soured/dirty mop, and after driving 10 hours, we did not want our vacation interrupted by housekeeping coming back in. We purchased our own cleaning supplies and cleaned things ourselves.Management did acknowledge that the paint and any deeper moisture/ceiling issues could not be repaired during our stay and stated that housekeeping could not guarantee the musty odor would go away. We were offered the option to vacate that evening which was uncalled for.

​Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, and I’m sorry the home did not meet your expectations. ​​Before arrival, we helped you through an unexpected change to the reservation. We worked with you in real time, laid out every option, and took care of the reservation transfer so the vacation could still happen. ​​After you arrived and shared your concerns, we immediately offered to send housekeeping back for the floors and bathroom ceiling. You declined that visit, and we honored that. ​We also looked for other ways to help during the stay, beyond the housekeeping visit, so you would have support while we worked through what could be handled on-site.​ We stayed honest about the limits of a mid-stay repair and gave a clear picture of what could be handled during the stay and what could not. To keep expectations clear, we explained that paint work could not be completed while you were in the home and offered the option to leave if you were no longer comfortable. ​​We are now sending our teams back through the property to take a closer look at each item you mentioned and make sure it is repaired or has a clear plan moving forward. A well-kept home is the standard we hold for every guest, and we will keep this property to that standard.

About the host

Host profile image
Hello Sand lovers!

I'm Michelle, your host at The Cozy Dune. As a true beach aficionado, I have a deep passion for all things related to the sun, sand, and surf! Being a native Floridian, I've explored almost every major beach in the state. However, it was during my first visit to Miramar Beach (Destin) that I completely fell head over heels for its soft, white sands and the glistening emerald waters of the Gulf. Ever since then, my mission has been to share this coastal paradise with others.

Your utmost vacation experience is my top priority. I'm here to cater to your needs, whether it's answering questions before, during, or even after your stay. I'm always delighted to offer recommendations on local attractions and events, ensuring that you make the most of your time here.

Sink your toes into the sand, construct magnificent sandcastles, practice revitalizing yoga poses, take a refreshing dip in the pool, catch glimpses of playful dolphins, or simply unwind on the couch after a sun-soaked afternoon. Allow me the pleasure of being your host and transforming this into your cherished beach DESTINation.

Let the beach adventures begin!
