Beach trip

The host was very responsive to every question I had from start to finish! They were very accommodating to me and my guest, including a fur baby!! It was in the perfect location, not far from the beach at all, and in a very quiet neighborhood. They made us feel very welcomed and we hope to be back soon :)

Great Stay

Property was beautiful and well kept, spacious, comfortable, and furnished appropriately. Busy but quiet area and close beach access was fantastic. Very attentive host and management. To note, this specific location is across from the pond, just a little further away than shown on the map during reservation process. It's a beautiful walk to the beach without crossing any streets. Would stay here again.

Could not beat the price with the location. Just minutes from a private beach, very clean cute little rental with enough space that 9 people still had their own space. Right in the center of several shops and restaurants. There is absolutely nothing but great things to say about the rental, the service, location, and the price! Will definitely check this property again for future stays!

Checking ALL the boxes!

This property checked all the boxes for our family! The property was very clean and had ample space for our family. There were plenty of kitchen supplies and we had everything we needed during our vacation. I can't say enough about the location of this property. It is centrally located; the beach is a very short scenic walk from the property. It is equally surrounded by stores and restaurants all within walking distance. We didn't have to drive if we didn't want to. I absolutely adored this location! The owner is very friendly and hospitable. She was very responsive to any questions and also made herself available should we need anything. I look forward to staying again on our next trip to Destin! Thank you for hosting our family!

Loved the private beach access and pool

This was a great place to stay for our two families of four! You can’t beat the private beach access and beach chair setup that comes with this condo! You get two beach chairs with umbrella; we got a front row spot every day so we were able to set up our blanket and beach chairs in front of those chairs right in the surf. It was definitely not as busy in our beach area, as it was in front of some of the high-rise condos. Our kids loved the bunk beds and having three bathrooms with two places to shower was definitely helpful! The complex is quiet and the short walk to the beach has a nice catwalk over the pond which is lit up at night. The pool closest to this condo is large and right across the parking lot. We went to the pool almost every night after the beach and there was hardly ever anyone else there. The location is close to at least 3 major grocery stores and only a few minutes drive to major attractions. We loved our stay and we can’t wait to go back!
