She wanted her 9yr girl and 3 yr old boy to experience the sea and beach. It was a perfect place to stay with our 2 families. Perfect amount of room and bathrooms. Was able to fix dinner if we were awake enough after the short walk to play all day at the beach. So glad there was beach equipment and toys for us to use. And we couldn’t forget about feeding the turtles right off the balcony. The kids loved that every morning. ![Every morning of feeding the turtles. ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/dfe5e02a-ee88-48e7-9ec5-40ff85938c5b-1748718124371.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Fun in the sun](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/d79ca3a1-2225-4e9d-8377-c364fee016cb-1748718197036.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Sand castles ](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/7d5d7d98-64e6-405d-9195-40aa36177ee1-1748718197010.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![Chilling after all the beach time.](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/bbe96cc0-0f1c-4afe-880f-33a58e260bc3-1748718197825.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Cheri S.

Condo had enough space for a family of seven with a small dog. This is a two story condo so if you have small children or elderly people, be mindful of the stairs. Overall it was a good place to stay, I would recommend. ##### Damaris R.

We loved our stay at Southbay. Perfect location between the mix of all there is to do in the Destin area. We were in town for a wedding at the Emerald Grand. It was the perfect space for our family, close to beach and pool fun, but nice and quiet, yet easy to get where we needed to be for wedding festivities. We loved watching all the turtles in the pond just off the deck! ##### Krystal H.
