Very cute place - small and cozy but enough room for us, and so well decorated! Everything in the condo was comfortable, and the place was very well stocked so we didn't have to buy anything extra. Love the view of the water, and the easy direct access to the beach! Just know there are only stairs to the unit (but there's only 3 floors, so not a big deal), and also only stairs to the beach, so our wheeled beach cart was too hard to manage and we ended up just carrying our stuff. Pool was usually crowded so we didn't use it, and dinner time smelled delicious with people grilling outside.

Great weekend getaway

The property was just as described, very comfortable and clean-- met all of our expectations. It was great for a weekend getaway for us. The balcony is small, however it has an exceptional view of the ocean; especially on a rainy day as we experienced. Ease of access to the beach was perfect too.

Great Stay

The condo was the perfect size for us and very clean. Short walk to the beach and one of the pools was right downstairs. Very cozy and everything was very neat and tidy. The queen bed was a little stiff but we are used to a memory foam mattress. Definitely recommend for a family of 5.

Wonderful property and location

The condo and view are even prettier than the pictures show! The condo was perfectly clean and so nicely decorated. We loved the location--not only being steps from the beach but also being away from the highrises. If we are fortunate enough to be able to return to the area, we will definitely be checking here first.

Cute & Cozy

We appreciated the flexibility of a 5-night stay when most places require a full week during summer. The condo was even cuter in person and just the right size for 3-4 people. I was traveling with two college students and they loved the bunk beds because each bunk had its own TV, shelf, and outlet for charging. The beach was crowded, as expected for Father’s Day weekend, but access was easy enough that you could come and go throughout the day. The location was convenient to several restaurants. Check-in/out process was simple. A great stay overall!

Fantastic Condo and Location

This was one of the best trips my family and I have taken together. The host had great communication and was extremely accommodating. The grounds were kept up very well and the condo was very clean. The heated pool and hot tub was a family favorite. Easy access to the beach with great views from the balcony. My two kids loved the TVs in the bunk beds. The condo was very spacious and so comfortable for relaxing. We would definitely book this property again!

Quick family vacation

Our family of 5 really enjoyed staying here for 4 days. We were sad when it was time to leave. I wish we could have stayed a few days longer. The beach was literally right across the street. It was a super short walk and not bad at all. The pictures on here don’t do the place any justice. It had everything we needed and the view was breathtaking!! We would absolutely recommend to anyone visiting Miramar beach and we want to come back again soon.

Peacefull Paradise

Totally enjoyed our stay. Accomadations decorated tastefully for a great beach vibe. The view was fantastic for having a cup of coffee on the little porch. Weather was a bit humid but the gulf water made up for it. Gorgeous. Minor negative- a little noisy some nights due to pool activity past 10pm . But that is not a reflection on the beautifull condo. Communication for questions was quickly answered. Thankyou for a great week.

About the host

Hosted by Cristy & Tom George

Host profile image
Our family is from lovely Colorado Springs. Although we enjoy the beauty of the mountains, skiing, snowboarding, and hiking, we also love the Emerald Coast for summer fun and a winter getaway. We love all that Destin has to offer including amazing restaurants, powder sand beaches, golf, water sports, you name it, it is all here! What's not to love?

We appreciate Gulfview for so many things including friendly folks, proximity to the beach, the smallness of the complex, and the family friendly atmosphere. It feels like we are our own little family! We want you to feel at home here too. We sincerely hope you enjoy your stay. We will do everything we can to make it an experience you will long to return to year after year!

What makes this property unique

Hear the ocean waves and see the beauty of the gulf as you sit on your living room couch or relax on the patio!
