Great area, but pest infested

In a great location, but we had a very unpleasant experience with cleanliness and care of the condo. 6 total large cockroaches, 5 in the interior, were counted, plus some at the grilling area and dumpster. 4 of them were in the kitchen, two on the kitchen counter, one on the balcony, one in bathroom. The property is on the bay near water and has a wonderful view, but proper pest control does not seem in order in such a risky area. There were at least 5 visible bait traps (roach motels). We brought this up with the owner and were told they were just a preventative measure. We also found mouse droppings on two days on the kitchen counter, so we are sure there was a mouse in the kitchen. We took extra care measures to ensure there was no food left on the counters, tables, floor, etc. even before our experience with the first cockroach. Underneath the refrigerator was filthy and cluttered with cardboard, an easy hiding spot for the rodent(s) and insects. There was also a gaping hole in the kitchen wall where an old landline telephone once stood, and we saw cockroaches trying to get out through there into the kitchen. We told the owner about our negative experience from the beginning but were told all he could do is treat the area with chemicals, we refused this, but ended up having to spray the phone hole to keep them out. Owner refused to implement hole sealing and cleaning and tried to cover up infestation. It was a disgusting experience, took away from the beauty of the bay.

Beautiful, quiet place on the water away from the busy tourism.

Had a little cousin family reunion and had such a great time, we're thinking about making this an annual thing. This was a beautiful condo, right on the water, and away from the busy tourist area. Being away from the busy Destin strip, it was only a 15-20 min drive to the Destin beaches. One of my favorite parts was sitting on the back patio in the morning, looking out over the bay, drinking my coffee, and watching the dolphins play. It was very calm and quiet and the neighbors we met were quite pleasant with us. Everything was clean with plenty of room, lounging, and towels for four adults on a five day stay. The place looks just as the pictures portray. Hurricane repairs were still going on, but a non-issue as it's happening at the other end of the complex. Parking was not an issue for us with 2 cars. We didn't take the opportunity to use the pool, but it was a nice, clean, large pool that we will use in future. There's also a coin laundry room by the pool with plenty of washers/dryers if you need to do laundry while you're there. I will definitely stay here again for future visits to the area.

Perfect location with a beautiful view

Easiest rental we have ever booked. The condo and pool was clean and the updates were nice. The view was amazing and we also seen a lot of dolphins. The location was close to so much with lots to do. They are doing construction but that didn’t bother us one bit. Everyone we talked to was so nice.
