Thank you for your review and for choosing to stay with us! We’re always working to fine-tune the details to make each stay even better. We’d love to welcome you back anytime, and we truly appreciate your vote of confidence in staying with us again!
Just spent an incredible week at the beach with our grandchildren. The condo is beautiful and the beds were very comfortable. The kitchen was well stocked with dishes, glassware, pots and pans and even a crockpot. The pool area and boardwalk to the beach were just steps away from the patio. There was a very nice grill station just off the pool area overlooking the beach. Krystelle was a wonderful host and responded very quickly to any questions. I wish I could rate it above five stars because the condo was everything and more that we needed for a relaxing week at the beach. We will definitely stay there again!

Thank you so much for this wonderful review Curtis! We’re so happy to hear that you had such a special week at the beach with your grandchildren. Thank you also for your kind words about communication. It was truly a pleasure hosting you, and we would absolutely love to welcome you and your family back for another relaxing beach getaway.
Great condo! Was extremely clean and is loaded with amenities and some cool bells and whistles. We also loved the location of the condo. It’s the end unit on the bottom floor so it feels private, yet the pool and beach are literally steps away as you walk out of the patio. Definitely hope to return!

The host and accommodations were perfect for our family trip to Destin. Place was clean and especially convenient for little ones on the ground floor. Quick access to the beach and centrally located in Destin for quick access to restaurants and entertainment. We had a great time and enjoyed our stay at this location. Definitely would recommend.

Had a wonderful family trip, property was great, spacious, location was wonderful and had everything we needed. We especially loved being about 15 steps from the pool and not many more from the beach that was absolutely perfect. Thanks for helping make sure wonderful family memories.
Very nice place I love the promptness of the host, also love how conveniently close it is to the beach, very kid friendly and relaxing I would definitely book here again my family and I had a blast!!!
Perfect location!! The beautiful condo is on the 1st floor, with easy access to the pool and beautiful white sandy beach!! We truly enjoyed our stay!! Everyone in the family loved our vacation and accommodations!! We highly recommend!! The owners are also very attentive and quick to respond to any and all questions!!
This was the best place I have ever stayed (and I travel a lot). The bottom unit was amazing and the condo was extremely nice and had everything we needed (down to extra garbage bags). The owner was so very responsive
and nice
We absolutely loved the location! The pool and the beach outside the back door were perfect!
When you book a place, you hope the pictures are realistic. This place did not disappoint! It was very spacious, clean and perfect for our family of 5 adults and 1 child. The beds were comfy and the appliances were great! Will be booking again!

Remembering Our Mom
Great property with beautiful views. The location was perfect with many things to do and see, not the least of which was the beautiful gulf coast. Would love to come back at some point. We gathered in celebration of our mother/grandmother who passed away 25 years ago. It was the perfect place for gathering to remember a wonderful lady..
The place was perfect. The beach and gulf were steps away. The pool was right outside the door. The condo was spotless. We wanted or needed for nothing. The beds were heavenly comfortable. The adults had as much fun as the kids who wore the pool and beach out. We are already planning our return to the Salty Jewel!!!

Thank you so much for the incredible review Lawrence! We’re absolutely thrilled to hear that The Salty Jewel was the perfect getaway for your group. It’s wonderful to know the condo had everything you needed, from the spotless space to the super comfy beds! We can’t wait to welcome you back for your next stay!
The location was great. Because its a private beach we were not allowed our own umbrella and the beach chairs, we had to pay $166 for two days of beachchairs. That's
The pool and beach access is unlike anything I’ve ever experienced in my 30 years vacationing on the gulf. You walk off the large patio onto stepping stones directly taking you to the lounge chairs and pool. A few stairs (the only you’ll encounter on the property) and a short boardwalk and you are on the shore. Truly remarkable. The living space and kitchen space was exactly what we needed for 6 adults 2 children. It is very spacious. Comfortable beds. Air conditioning worked wonderfully.Host responded very quickly to any message and accommodated our requests. Was a great experience.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review Tess! We’re thrilled to hear you loved the unbeatable pool and beach access and the unit made your stay relaxing and enjoyable. We’d love to host you again for another unforgettable getaway!
We had a wonderful time. Plenty of room for us all. 3 full baths were great. No stairs to walk up and down. Ground floor unit. Easy access from the parking lot and out to the pool and beach.
My family and I were very happy when we walked into this condo. The pictures look exactly how the condo looks. The beachfront access and being right there where we can step out and be next to the pool was everything. We traveled with our 8-year-old, 16-year-old and our 2-year-old grandson and it was something for everyone to do. When we come back to Destin next year I will definitely look for this condo. The host was easy to communicate with and responded to every question promptly.
