Management was always responsive to any questions we had and even warned us of a coming storm! The one thing we would suggest is that the king mattress be replaced as it sagged badly. Otherwise the condo is convenient, well-equipped and comfortable. ##### Janis C. ### 8/10 Good #### SHERI B. 27 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Florida time Beautiful condo and premo location! I would definitely stay at that condo again. The only mishap would be upon checking in to our condo, when you send a text about the door codes, please SAY that the info below is to open your condo door. It was sent with no explanation as to what the codes were and after driving 14 hours to get there, the last thing I want to do is to NOT get into my condo! Other than that, we had an amazing time and would always book with you and the owners! ##### SHERI B.

I appreciated the hand shower but the tub/shower set-up should be remodeled in favor of a walk-in shower for safety concerns. If possible, a larger vanity space would be desirable..

After 10 hours of driving the last thing you want to deal with is not being able to access the condo-The door for condo 454 should be replaced or fixed because it was a slight issue to open it-Location was key the convenience of shops and restaurants was nice ##### Jason P. ### 8/10 Good #### jeffrey d. 28 Jul 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, listing accuracy #### Wonderful, but very noisy as well. The property was very nice, almost as if I were home! We had guests and they were impressed with the suite and property grounds as well. However, one restaurant/bar, Rum Runners, is situated directly across from this beautiful suite. The bands there are horrible and very loud till 2 am every night. Not to mention rowdy patrons as well. Besides not getting the rest needed, it was a beautiful stay non the less. Would prefer grounds away from the village next time. Not sure why that bar is placed where it is and not in the back of the village with the other bars. Definitely a sore spot for renters within that area. ##### jeffrey d.

Reviewer Comments: We have stayed in this condo previously and loved it, which is why we booked it for this year. You can't beat the location if you have teens and young kids as there is so much to do within the Wharf. The condo is right in the center of the Wharf and we can watch the fireworks, listen to the bands and enjoy everything below from our balcony. The pool is easy access and the trollies for the beach are convenient. There is a new general store that makes it easy for getting items you might need but don't want to get in a car to go to the grocery store. There are new restaurants coming which will be nice as some of the restaurants are not as good as they were last year. We have been to the Wharf the last 3 years and look to book next year. ##### Martha B. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sandy S., Mobile, al 7 Aug 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Destin trip We had a great time.

Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2022 ### 6/10 Okay #### Jenna K. 4 Jun 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful condo but unfortunately wouldn't stay at this unit again The condo is very clean and lovely decorated. The location and neatness is just as advertised. However, a few things will keep us from staying at this particular unit again. 1- the beds! Linens are great, but the mattresses are in desperate need of replacing; thankfully my kids are Little, but all 3 beds super uncomfortable:( my husband and I took turns sleeping on the couch for when you lay on our bed you sink to the headboard and floor. (I weigh 130 he weighs about 185) Also the water pressure in both showers is pretty low. We've stayed at obs point before and didn't have this problem. My kids and I love a bath and it took 40 mjns to fill up. The shower pressure is very light so takes a long time to wash sand out of your hair. These 2 things may not be much to some, be after driving whole day and spending alot of money- these are things worth not worrying about. Finally the big reason we won't book this unit again is we weren't aware of beach access changing due to "resort cards". Basically, because we booked thru this agency (myvacation haven) and not the actual Sandestin resort site, we had to pay full price for chairs (300$+, and were denied access to the Sandestin Beach club pool and bathrooms (no card) We've been staying every summer for 10 years and have always had access to this beach pool and restrooms. Every summer. It's main reason we agree to stay off the beach- the night life activities of baytowne - then while on beach still have access to pool and restrooms. That changed this year with no transparency or information until we got there with our 2 little kids who desperately need a pool on a beach day. What incentives are there now for booking thru my vacation haven then if denied these major amenities? We had a nice stay still and if the above are not deal breakers then this is a good place to stay. However, we need decent beds, shower and access to the pool we've had for 10 yrs in future. ##### Jenna K.

Parking - when entering garage park on far left of garage for easier access to elevator. - bring noise cancellation device at bedtime due to late night shenanigans at Rum Runners. Or be apart of shenanigans. Fun times! ##### Jamie W.

It is convenient and have a lot of options to eat at the restaurants and enjoy the entertainment around the property. However, upon arrival parking in private parking garage was not good. We had to drive around for about 40 minutes looking for parking. In addition the condo had a funny oder upon entry. You can tell housekeeping did a poor job of ensuring the condo was clean. Lot's of cobwebs, were on the dinning room lighting and the closets were packed with beach gears, which left a musty smell in rooms and the kitchen area. No place to hang your clothing. Overall stay was comfortable, but attention needs to be paid to the areas as named. ##### Stacey-Ann H.

The location of the rental was great. We were in the north tower with a view that allowed us to see the shows, fireworks, etc. right from our balcony. ##### Keri T.

I was extremely impressed by the availability and professionalism of the staff with vacation haven. I loved the information portal and the fact that every time I called, someone answered the phone and had an answer immediately. The property was clean and in a great location! The Wharfe is perfect for Adults and fun for teenagers! I would definitely recommend this property and Vacation Haven to anyone! ##### LAURA A.
