Great Condo!

Great location on the beach! Loved waking up every morning and sitting on the balcony to drink coffee while overlooking the ocean. Very peaceful yet right in the middle of the main road (98).

Short weekday stay.

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was very happy 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: When we got there we found out that you can’t use the beach unless you pay for their chairs and umbrellas which cost 55 bucks per day, we had three if us so that would have cost us more than a hundred dollars per day. We ended up going to a different beach the whole time we were there. We only had two rolls of single ply toilet paper to last 4 days, with two women that is impossible. The dryer was broken so we couldn’t use it. The mattress in the master bedroom was like sleeping on a box spring. The chair on the balcony was falling apart. The plus was parking was pretty good and the air conditioning worked great. The view was really awesome , just couldn’t enjoy the beach there. A stark reminder why I would never live in an HOA run property.

Great location, but condo needs some updating

Great location right on the beach and overall property was nice. The bunk beds were not sturdy at all, screws were coming out that we had to constantly screw back in. Lights weren’t all working and the master bedroom mattress was as hard as a rock! The property was great, but the condo definitely needs some work!

Review

The view was beautiful and the home was nice. We had to call the HOA when we arrived because the unit still had dirty towels in it and one of the beds needed to be changed because there was sand all over the sheets and cover, so it wasn’t changed and cleaned before we got there! Manager showed up And took care of us.

July 2017 Stay

First time in Destin. Great family experience. The condo was great. The pots and pans need replacing if you plan on cooking. a little outdated. Scarlet and Pam at the front desk are amazing. Someone give them a raise. The only draw back of the whole week was the beach service. Those guys were rude an obnoxious. Didn't care if I used the service or not. I stood there and listened to them complain about the guest if one had a problem. please retrain in the noble art of the customers always right. Their job is tourism right.

Overall it's a good little vacation spot. If you like to cook your own meals, please bring cooking utensils and pot holders, there were none available. Also, if you have small children; the traffic noise is a bit loud on the street side.

Very nice condo

The view from the balcony is just amazing. Such a great unit that maximizes every square foot of space. Shower was powerful, AC was really cold, and Ice maker in the freezer was a workhouse. It's got little wear and tear cosmetic imperfections but makes up for it in function.

Do not rent!!!!

This place is horrible! Beds aren't comfortable, very outdated and feels dirty. The elevator is outside and the parking is not gated so anyone can come and go. Not enough towels so laundry daily. No chairs or anything for convenience. The only positive is the view but you can get the same view same price in a different resort with much better amenities.

Older Condo, expensive for what it was, but overall convenient location...

The cleanliness when we arrived wasn't terrible, but my kids asked for clorox wipes to clean a few areas in their room and I'd say that has never happened... The age of the condo probably attributed to the cleanliness rating. The air intake for the a/c was rusted and overall just looks like a 20+ year property that has been minimally painted versus upgraded. Bathrooms smelled as well. I think it was just in the old piping, but didn't go away the entire time we were there. The overall location to other areas and beach was convenient, but get ready to drop $400+ if you want to have an umbrella and chairs...
