Very nice view. The rooms were very spacious. I like how the roadways were not busy so it was easy to get in and out and do our short drive into Destin. Definitely would stay again. It’s stocked with your normal kitchen and bathroom stuff, also has a coffee pot and Keurig. I do wish it came with three trash bags and not just two, with 8 people being there you throw a lot away especially with diapers, but that is just us being picky. I would recommend to any of my family.

Great location for Spring Break!

We were very happy with the property overall - clean, beautiful views and easy access to everything. Living room could use new furniture and check-in was frustrating as “check-in beginning at 4:00” apparently means check-in between 4:00-6:00 so we had to sit in the car for an hour before getting the code to the condo. Other than that, we had a wonderful trip!

We are glad to hear that overall you enjoyed your stay with us. Our check in time does start at 4pm and can go up until 6pm depending on the number of arrivals we have for that day. We do apologize that you had to wait awhile, however we do work as hard as we can to not have our guests waiting beyond 4pm.

Disappointing

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The patio chairs were so uncomfortable it made the patio experience not relaxing at all. The high-top chairs need new cushions. There is mold on the vanity in the second bathroom. The same bathroom toilet leaked and soaked all the clothes in a suitcase on the floor. The beach chair attendant was a jerk.
