The shower head is very short, I'm 6'3 and had to shower on my knees in order to wash my hair. Other than that the everything about our stay was amazing. I would stay there again.

Definitely needs better bed and more towels. Did not know the ac unit was on the balcony. Otherwise I loved it!

The property was good. The smoking pot on the balcony for everyone else to have to endure was uncalled for. The no umbrella policy a little extreme especially when you are in a tight budget and want to not get burned. No heads up on the rental fee for umbrellas and you have to reserve to get front row.

The condo was clean & sufficient for 2 people. The view from the balcony was amazing. The condo was stocked with general “start up” items, but could honestly use more dishes, such as plates & bowls (also pot holders) in my opinion. The bed was a king but the mattress was not extremely comfortable but we slept pretty good regardless. Overall, the condo is very nice. We enjoyed our stay. The property is pretty nice also. Would recommend.

If all you care about is the view, this is your place! Everything else was very underwhelming. The condo itself was decent. It was clean, bed was comfortable, view was breathtaking. My biggest issue with the room was the AC unit is on the balcony drowning out the sound of the waves, and it really needs a fresh coat of paint. I did have an issue with there only being 3 towels for 2 ppl and a 5 night stay. After first being “encouraged to do laundry” then told “extra towels are under the sink” (they were not) we finally, on our last night, did get some fresh towels, but no wash clothes. What made me so upset was that before booking I asked about construction and was assured “there is no construction going on and all amenities are fully functional” that was a big bold lie! Pull up and first thing I see, yep you guessed it, construction. And lots of it! And because the construction crew has taken most of the parking lot as a staging area for their supplies we had to park a block or so away and across the street in a dark gravel lot with no security. Also, the splash pad did not work, and the pool was gross. It had so much grime caked up on the tile and mold in the corners that I couldn’t swim in it. But the worst part, the elevators sounded as if they hadn’t been lubricated since 1970 and every time someone gets on them you can hear it from the bedroom while trying to sleep. All in all it was just ok. Didn’t ruin our trip but will be finding somewhere else to stay next time.

It’s clear that the issues with the AC unit, towels, and the construction were frustrating, and we completely understand how that impacted your stay.

We will certainly address the towel situation and ensure our communication about amenities is clearer moving forward.
Regarding the construction, we apologize for the inconvenience it caused, especially with parking and the noise.

We asked a question to our owner. Does this condo have a washer and dryer in it. They said yes it does. The truth is it does not. Then we was told that our floor had a coin washer and dryer but once again the washer and dryer on this floor was out of order. We tried another floor but it was also out of order. Be careful how you answer question. Also, the shower needed a rubber mat because it was very slippery and dangerous. Maintenance people came in our condominium while we were out to fix things. Not good!
We’re so glad to hear that you had a great time during your stay, Chris! It’s always our goal to create a welcoming and enjoyable experience for our guests. Knowing that you felt at home with us truly warms our hearts. We’d love to welcome you back for another visit whenever you’re ready to make more memories in Destin. Thank you for choosing Avari!

The bathtub would not drain and had to wait on maintenance. Also the toilet rim was gross with poop under the rim. My child sat on it. They finally came after numerous requests to clean and didn't even get it after they did.
