NEWLY Renovated/FREE Beach Svc & WIFI/Great Gulf View (413)

Luxurious, fully renovated Gulf-front condo at the Holiday Surf & Racquet Club on beautiful Holiday Isle — a quiet peninsula surrounded by the Gulf and Destin Harbor. This one-bedroom, one-bath fourth-floor unit has been completely updated, from the kitchen and bath to the fixtures and finishes throughout.

View the sugar-white sand and emerald waters of the Gulf right from your own living room and private balcony. You don't have to cross a road to enjoy the surf here — just step outside and you're a few paces from the water. The fully-equipped kitchen shares that same stunning Gulf view.

The bedroom has a king-size bed, and the living room sleeps two more on a queen sleeper sofa — a comfortable fit for up to four guests. Walk or jog on Holiday Isle's two and a half miles of sidewalks, or bike through its quiet neighborhood streets. Nothing else in Destin quite compares.

The Holiday Surf & Racquet Club is loaded with amenities: a heated pool, tennis courts, shuffleboard, BBQ grills, fitness room, men's and women's sauna, and a large conference room with a fully-equipped kitchen. Removed from HWY 98 traffic, but only minutes from great restaurants, Harborwalk Village, The Track, and Big Kahuna's — plus parasailing, snorkeling, and fishing right along the beach.

What's included: Complimentary beach service daily from March 1 – October 31 (two chairs and one umbrella), plus free high-speed WiFi. There's also a dedicated workspace — send your last email of the day, then step out and put your toes in the sand.

A few things to know: Minimum rental age is 25. No pets per HOA policy.

Safe and beautiful

We stayed here for 8 days 7 nights during 4th of July and it was a wonderful experience. We traveled as 3 women/girls and felt safe the entire stay. We loved that a sheriff was on the property as well. Everyone was friendly and respectful and I really appreciated that. The condo was nice, clean and very updated. We would definitely stay here again!

Simply Perfect

Ideal location right on the beach. Comfortable accommodations with everything you need to enjoy time away from home - this is like home away from home....just perfect!! A few interruptions during our stay (changing filters, spraying and a modem/cable system installation) but no inconvenience whatsoever.

This was perfect for my husband, grandson, and me. We had a wonderful time.

Very clean, safe. Heated pool, right on the ocean. Our Grandson loved it & didn’t want to leave. The only negative would be the air conditioning. It didn’t respond to the thermostat settings, and always felt too warm.

Making memories

My husband, child, and I had an amazing stay. The location was beautiful and the room was perfect. We came for our 7th wedding anniversary and our little boys (almost) fourth birthday. It was a perfect place for some memorable family time in the sun. We will be returning.

Minela M.

Disliked: Cleanliness

Cleanliness was an issue.

The property appeared beautiful but, we were greeted with a strong, unpleasant odor upon arrival, which resembled urine. The bathroom, particularly the bathtub, was not clean. Upon notifying management, they confirmed the issue and identified the source of the odor as stagnant water behind the tub. Despite their efforts, including an ozone treatment and application of cleaning agents, the problem persisted for the first two days of our stay. We were informed that a contractor would need to address the issue after our departure. The ozone treatment eventually resolved the odor, but the first two days were disrupted, particularly with young children. While we appreciate the staff's efforts to address the situation, this experience has led us to decide against returning to this specific unit. We have previously enjoyed other units at Holiday Surf & Racquet Club and value the overall property, but we cannot recommend this particular room.

Beautiful Calming retreat

Beautiful restful decor. Highend look. I have been coming to Destin for years. This person got it so right on decor. Loved everthing about our stay. Condo management could up their game with pots of flowers at entrys which are not very welcoming and could spruce up decor at elevator entries with art and plants. Tons of empty pots at gate could be used. That was my first impression of building.413👍

Come with everything you need

The property is awesome but they only give you two rolls of toilet papers and very minimal supplies you will need to cook as you are not close to any restaurants. Disappointed with what the VRBO comes supplied with compared to others I have stayed at. Clean and friendly staff but not impressed with the room itself.

Highly Recommend

I enjoyed my stay overall, no complaints, everyone was extremely nice and the property itself was absolutely amazing. I had an amazing view of the beach and it was literally a 2 minute walk if that to get on the beach itself. I was also pretty close to a lot of the main attractions in the area. I will be returning in the future!

Surf Club Excellent --- Condo Average.

Overall property : beach, pool, tennis all were excellent. Condo decoration did not not lend itself to a beach atomosphere. Two wash clothes and the bath matt were dirty. Security chain on door was broken. Some pots and cookie sheets had to be washed before use. No screen on pation door.
