The condo smelled like fish when I walked in there was a big bug catcher on the kitchen counter I was harassed by staff two days in a row for non payment I paid in full in January for a November trip. Half the living room electric didn’t work and that included the tv found the fuse box in kitchen behind a mirror After I spent 30 mins searching Had to throw the breaker two days in a row Condo was very very out dated and the kitchen was lacking in utilities and dishes The toilets did not flush well at all had to old the handle down for a long time Needless to say I’ll book at a different location next trip and with a different management company

We stayed here in the past and enjoyed it. The lack of communication of the 8 am construction, and the multiple fire alarms was a big inconvenience. Not saying I won’t be back, just wish I knew about it beforehand. The noise was so bad, we couldn’t stay in the condo most of the time we were there the whole time.

Overall fine- no frills, just the basics

Overall a decent room- we had the basics, but dishwasher leaked, no beach towels, not enough hooks, and terrible pillows. The dishes were a weird mixture, with odd utensils- no pizza cutter but 2 blenders and 2 electric can openers. Pans for cooking & knife options were very mismatched also. The property amenties were what makes this place- pools, grills, lounge chairs, beach access, all amazing! Just the unit itself needs an upgrade.

This was our first time in Destin and our expectations of Sterling Shores was absolutely met. The building was kept (even during renovations), our condo was immaculate, the pool was clean and everything was exactly as it was advertised. Communication from Vacasa was excellent and they answered my questions via text in a prompt manner. We would definitely like to come back and even make this an annual vacation destination!

Very clean and unit was ready on time for check in. The furniture and decor were outdated. The only issue I had (which I did not report bc it really was not too serious) was that the utensil bin only had 4 forks, 4 large spoons and 4 tiny spoons. We are a family of 5

We enjoyed our trip. The condo was very clean. However, the owner didn't put alot into decorating to give you that welcome or home feeling. In one of the bedrooms, the chester drawers was broken and the paint on the nightstand was peeling. Not enough seating in the living room for comfort and the dining room table and chairs were not comfortable.
