Our stay at St. Lucia was phenomenal. The condo was very clean and equipped with beach essentials like sand toys, foldable chairs, and small cooler. I loved the private beach access.

Very nice resort

Silver Shells is a great resort. We stayed in St Lucia and the property was very clean. The balcony is a good size and we enjoyed a few meals at the outside table there. The bed was comfortable, however the pillows were flat. So maybe bring your own pillows. Very nice master bath. We couldn't figure out how to connect a cable to the Internet to have more options to watch TV but overall, we had a great time.

Great location! Extremely Clean! Excellent amenities!

Everything was perfect about the stay. Very clean, Nicely decorated, and can't beat the location. The one downside is that you need to pick up and drop off your wrist bands and key fobs 5 miles away in the opposite direction of the airport. We did not rent a car so it was an inconvenience for us to not be able to just pick up and drop off on the way in the cab. But everything else was perfect.

Great location

Great location. Walking distance to amazing restaurants. Beach was private and pools were very well kept up. We were really bummed out the tennis courts were being repaved and we couldn’t use it at all. Listing was very well kept lots of amenities and kitchenware to use. Air conditioner was extremely frustrating and it kept Auto setting back to 78* at night after we would set it. Bathroom & Closet and all rooms were huge. Really enjoyed our stay. Communication with owner and rental property was great.

Spring Break 2024

My daughter and her friend wanted to go to Destin for spring break so my wife and I took them. Nice condo and nice complex. Condo was clean. My only "gripe" on the condo was the kitchen could have been better stocked and the master bedroom bed could have been better. Check-in was a little confusing for us, but we got it figured out. Waze got confused taking us to the rental company to pick up are packet, so that took a few turns to find. Overall nice place and would stay there again. Enjoyed the pickleball courts and fitness center.

We have stayed at Silver Shells multiple times. Love the location, pool and beach it’s the only place we will stay in Destin. This condo has a good view BUT could use some updates. All the corners of every room, behind toilets, and baseboards were all dirty and covered in dust. Drapes dirty and torn. Carpet in bedrooms very worn. Needs a thorough clean. Beds are uncomfortable and pillows are even worse. Minimal supplies. Plan on buying toilet paper, paper towels and trash bags. We were disappointed because SS is such a nice resort style place to stay. Will look for a different condo next time.

Great trip!

Condo was great! Everything was very clean and easy to access. We did not like having to drive to a separate location Several miles away to retrieve key fobs and return them at same location. That was a bit inconvenient after driving for so long but other than that it was perfect.
