Property was very clean, beach access, and beach were amazing. Centrally located. Only bad thing was the pullout couch was the worst couch to sit on I’ve ever sat on and there was no other real option to sit on other than an equally as uncomfortable wicker chair.

905-Gorgeous full gulf view. Clean. Pretty laid back travelers but everything we needed. 9 yr old first time to the ocean and he had a blast. Beach chairs and umbrellas great- didn’t bother us to set up off to the side. Pools and hot tubs set up was great. Could be in sun or shade. Beach access great. Basic toiletries in bathrooms. Tiki bar and cafe were fun.

The condo was spotless with a beautiful beachfront, unobstructed view. The unit was well-stocked and we enjoyed the welcome snacks and water. The owner/manager was gracious and texted to check that everything was suitable. Front desk staff were polite. Parking was good. The only drawback was the mattress in the bedroom. A better quality mattress and pillows would be more comfortable. Otherwise the accommodations were superb. We plan on returning sometime.

Having visited Destin annually, this was by far the best experience we've had, and we're already planning our next booking. Great beach access, near to dining options and family entertainment!
