Decor was nice and the view was incredible. There was some chipping on the ceiling and the dining table but over all it was nice and cozy for a week on the beach. Access to the beach was easy and a nice area. Felt very safe.

The beach view is amazing! The location is wonderful. It felt secluded but you could still walk places in 10-20 minutes. And of course lots of places to drive as well.The chairs and umbrella set up was super nice and made our stay even more enjoyable. The beach was wonderful and not crowded in October.It could use just a little sprucing up as it is showing some wear and tear, but nothing major.
The view from the balcony was perfect.

Overall very nice condo , floors could have been cleaned a little better but it is the beach so sand is expected. Tv code did not work for us so we did have to watch teen titans on repeat when in the room.

Beautiful view but needs deep clean and update

Beautiful views with easy access to beach. Pool was great. Sofa and mattress are worn out and need replacing. Warped floorboards in hallway. Large Black and brown stain on ceiling in the bathroom. Socks were black from walking on the floor. Rusted metal basket next to shower needs to be removed since it is in the way of the washing machine and dryer and getting in and out of the shower. Again amazing views and location just needs some maintenance!

Amazingly beautiful beach front condo

Upon entering the condo we were amazed at how well it was decorated. Its provided the beach feel in every place you looked. Having a private beach within feet of our balcony was a major plus. For us we prefer smaller low key facilities over the huge condos which can have hundreds of guests. Ellen was very easy to work with and made sure we were beyond satisfied from before arriving till after we left. We highly recommend this condo and will be returning in the near future.

Fantastic place right on the crystal beach!

It a great 1 bed apartment with beautiful decor located on the super pretty crystal beach. Very close(5 mins drive) to a lot of restaurants and shopping complex. We loved our 4 day stay there and spent lot more time on the blue balcony chairs than I would like to admit. Everything was very clean. Instructions to check in and check out were straight forward as well. Ellen is a superb host and was quick with her responses. We would definitely be back :) <3

Love the Floridian!

This is our 3rd time staying at the Floridian! We totally love this condo. It's perfect for our family beach vacation. It's beautifully decorated with a gorgeous view of the ocean. Love to sit out on the balcony sipping my coffee every morning. It has everything that you need, and sure makes you feel like home. This condominium is not huge, so the part of the private beach you are on is not so crowded compared to other areas. Great location with easy access to grocery stores and restaurants. Ellen was super nice and very easy to work with. She also always responded to any of my questions quickly. If we are going to come back to Destin again, the Floridian will always be my pick to stay!!! You won't regret it!!!

We had a blast. Everything that you needed or wanted was in this condo. The view was amazing. The only thing was the tv in the living room had a code on it n it wld not work even if you had the code. We didn't let that ruin anything tho. But overall we wld rent this condo again.

Disappointed

This condo needs lots of work! Had to call about Mold on the bathroom ceiling that they came promptly came and covered with a remediation. Lots of dirt around the air vents on the ceiling. 2 inch cockroach in the bathroom still alive one morning, they said condo was sprayed the week prior. Guest bathroom toilet ran all the time. Lots of dust on doors and lamps. No replaced lightbulbs in the kitchen. Carbon monoxide detector had old battery so it went off during the night. I was able to reach management on all complaints but was offered zero money compensation, minus the 5 for a new battery for the detector. The good…balcony furniture nice, used it the most! Thankfully, the view of the sand and the sound of the ocean never fail to calm the soul! 25 years traveling to Destin…this condo is the first fail!

Good location

Great location. Loved the private beach. Was a little disappointed in the condo as we felt like we paid too much for what it was. There was mold on the bathroom ceiling and what looked to be vent issues/leaks. The place was pretty clean overall, the hosts were great, and the property manager was great.

General Disappointment of unit condition to-price paid

Communications with the property manager were great, but the unit was not in condition as the pictures advertise. I should not be paying the price I paid for what I discovered only after opening the front door. Some discoveries by me:1. Sweeper broken, two pans of sand swept with broom2. Condensation in one bathroom ceiling dripping water at the vent from evening till morning and ceiling wet3. Paint peeling on living room ceiling4. Dining table finish coming apart with sawdust when wiped5. Loose kitchen faucet movement hot/cold6. Faucet in one bathroom has to be set just right or it drips7. Dryer door latch would not stay closed8. Lint filter not working; if drying clothes after towels, all the towel lint sticks to clothes9. Hall floor warps when light mopping10. We could feel sand in the bed sheetsOverall, I liked the unit location, access to the beach, umbrella & chairs service and the pool. However, the disappointment of my unit condition really ruined the experience I expected for my family. One good thing; after calling the property manager regarding the sweeper not picking up sand, they sent someone over the next day with a brand new one. Downside, we filled it two times in 15 minutes with sand from the living room carpet and floor. I don't know about their other units in the complex, but I know that I can't recommend this location to anyone.

Beautiful Beach!

The beach and chair service are wonderful, and communication with the property manager is excellent. However, the condo itself feels quite dated and cluttered. The kitchen is well equipped. Additionally, be aware that you need to bring your own essentials, such as hand soap, salt & pepper, beach towels. Given the price it was decent and we loved the beach!
