Everything is super old, but owners are being cheap on everything and are charging same premium prices as everyone else who actually renovate their properties. We just decided on a 1 week vacation last minute, and there's a reason this was still available last minute. But it's close to the beach, across the street... ##### Petr Z.

Bobbies condo just as depicted. Comfortable, well equipped kitchen, and quick walk to the beach. Not exactly luxurious but I didn't expect it to be. Enjoyed the patio out back. ##### Ken S. Stayed 11 nights in Mar 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jamie H. 14 Aug 2021 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful Condo with Great Location Condo was extremely clean and comfortable. No issues with any bugs as stated in other review. It's on the ground level with a nice back patio with a large green space. We loved that we were right across the street from the beach access and could ride our bikes anywhere. We didn't need to drive anywhere the entire trip. My only suggestion for improvement would be to have 2 sets of towels so I didn't have to do laundry. We had to share a wash rag. Bring your own trash bags, TP, and paper towels. Overall a lovely place to stay and we would book again! ##### Jamie H.

Unit was directly across street from beach with private access to beach. Is a little dated but nice and very well kept. Also has nice large back yard area that kids enjoyed while taking breaks from beach. Would definitely recommend staying here. ##### Bryan T. Stayed 5 nights in Jun 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### William D. 8 Mar 2018 #### Unit 1A - Gem of Chateau La Mer We have been coming to Destin 11 years and to Chateau La Mer. This unit is the nicest 1 bedroom. The owner takes meticulous care and provides nothing but the best. New pots/pans. Matching dinnerware and glassware. Furniture is in beautiful condition. It is nicely decorated and so well kept up. Two disadvantages I would say is there is no in unit washer/dryer and the bathroom entry from the bedroom is a little narrow. I recommend it to any couple. ##### William D. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Heidi P. 31 Jul 2025 ##### Heidi P. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ---
