Family time at the Beach

Excellent place to stay. Very convenient to get to the beach with no roads to cross. 2 beach chairs and umbrella included. The place was very clean and the balcony is amazing for just sitting out and enjoying the ocean waves and the beautiful sunset. Will definitely be coming back.

Stellar condo with fabulous balcony

We needed a fairly large condo for our family and this was perfect. Beautiful condo. Roomy and tastefully decorated. Large kitchen with Viking appliances. The balcony is huge with a gorgeous view of one of the best beaches in the country. Parking and entry was easy and the hostess was accessible. The best vacation rental we’ve used yet. I highly recommend.

Perfect Family Vacation

Family vacation to celebrate my mom and dads 50th anniversary. We had an absolutely wonderful time. Everything was very clean and exactly as described in the listing. It is the nicest VRBO we have ever stayed in. Just go ahead and book it. You won’t be sorry. The deck was wonderful and the house easily accommodated our family giving everyone there own space. The pool was nice and heated. We hope to come back again next year.

Huge balcony with a fantastic view!

This gated condo with a parking spot in a covered garage was beautifully furnished with 2 master bedrooms, both with balcony access. Grandma sat on the extra large balcony and people watched from dawn til dusk. All of us were out on it at various times reading, sleeping , or just enjoying the beautiful beach scenery. Lots of extras in this condo like plenty of towels, well stocked kitchen, ice machine, dish soap, laundry soap, bath soaps starters provided so you didn’t have to rush to the grocery right away. Paper towels and toilet tissue as well was provided. We have rented many vacay condos and this one was the best of them all. Thank you so much for letting us stay there for the week. Very relaxing week for our family. The teens loved the pool and we could look over the edge of the balcony and keep track of them. We also enjoyed the restaurant right next to the condo. Food was great especially the breakfast. We are back home as I write this and I am missing that balcony!

The condo was absolutely amazing! On arrival, the instructions for check in were very clear and it was nice having a designated parking spot. Inside, the condo was super clean and had everything you could need. Outside, the patio was very roomy with beautiful views and comfy furniture. The beach was easily accessible and two beach chairs and an umbrella were complimentary and set up for us each day (I recommend tipping the beach attendant! He was amazing and made sure we had a great spot everyday). Our actual stay was also perfect. We traveled with two kiddos and they loved the bunk beds and having their own space. The adults enjoyed having two master suites with ocean views. There were a lot of restaurants and things to do close by (but do be aware of the traffic caused by road construction and give yourself a little extra time if you have plans). The hosts themselves were very communicative and quick to respond. I really loved the welcome book they sent before our trip so we could become acquainted with the property and area. Overall- this was one of the best beach experiences I have ever had. I would absolutely love to stay here again and hope to be back next year or the year after!

Wonderful beachfront property. Plenty of room for the 6 adults and 3 kiddos. Kitchen was perfect for our needs, living room so comply but the star was the balcony overlooking the beach. Comfortable seating for morning coffee, quick lunches and evening cocktails….all good. The Master suite was the bomb as was the bath! Great community pool and easy beach access. Not a ton of restaurants nearby but Destin proper is only 20 min or so away. That said you really can’t go wrong, we loved it.

Beautiful spacious condo with great beach views from the large balcony. Great location on the beach with walkable restaurants, bars and coffee shops nearby. Responsive host. (The only drawback was the triple bunk beds in the 4th bedroom. The bunks are tight with little headroom. Really only suitable for small kids.)

We have been going to Destin and Ft. Walton beach for 5 years staying in Condos. This is our favorite place! The Condo is beautiful, it’s on the fifth floor looking right at the ocean! It has a huge patio with a grill. We enjoyed eating on the patio and relaxing to the sound of the ocean every day and night! The condo has a wonderful kitchen, 3 nice bathrooms, 3 nice size bedrooms, along with a bunk room for the kids. We also found some great restaurants very close to the condo. The host was very helpful answering all of my questions. We were able to get the beach chairs and umbrellas set up on the beach right in front of the condo so the walk was quick. We also had covered parking for one car so we didn’t get wet when it rained and we were going out. I would highly recommend this condo! You will love it!
