This was an absolutely perfect vacation for our family! The location is perfect. The view from our room was stunning with views of the pool and the beautiful turquoise waters of the gulf. The property itself is so clean and very family friendly. We loved the beach toys and chairs that we had access to along with the super easy beach access just steps away from the property. Charlie was very responsive and a wonderful host. There are not enough wonderful things that we can say about this condo, the property and the location! We are looking forward to returning year after year to make more memories with our family

The best experience we have ever had! The views, population, cleanliness, and communication were top notch and welcoming! We will likely never stay anywhere else! The owners go above and beyond to make you feel at home. Also: ceiling fans and extra nightstand fans in case you’re like me and have to have the fan to sleep. Did I mention the view…. Perfection.

7th floor perfect beach and ocean view with daily dolphin sightings in the morning as you sip your coffee on the balcony! We always choose this complex because it’s walking distance to the Back Porch for lunches and has great pizza/donuts and more right across the street. Perfect for a fun week with your kids! The pool and beach access is so easy and there’s even a little community beach toy area where your kids can find floaties or buckets and shovels for the day! The furniture is more up to date than the photos, the kitchen flows nicely, the bathrooms were great, the beds comfortable! The host himself, Charlie, was so kind and communicative- we always felt prepared and the checkout process was simple. As a mama who goes to Destin every year, trust me, just book it! HIGHKY RECOMMEND!!!
