***Please note: As part of an exciting resort enhancement project, some amenities at SunDestin Beach Resort remain under construction, including the restaurant, outdoor pools, steam room, and spa. Please note that the splash pad is currently not operable and will remain closed until further notice while ownership determines future plans for the area. The fitness center remains open for guest use during this time.
Guests may continue to enjoy beach access via the ADA-accessible pathway located around the side of the building. Please also note that there is currently a temporary detour in place for lobby access as enhancement work continues in select areas of the resort.
While construction activity is still present on-site, it is now far less invasive than it has been previously as the project enters its final stages and crews continue winding down operations. We are thoughtfully welcoming reservations while setting clear expectations in advance to help ensure a comfortable and positive stay during this improvement phase.
These enhancements are designed to elevate the guest experience for years to come, and we look forward to welcoming guests to a beautifully refreshed SunDestin Beach Resort—one that reflects the level of care, comfort, and coastal hospitality our owners and guests expect.

Location was great! Close to everything and easy access to the beach. The condo itself needs some updating as far as decor and furniture. There is an air conditioner unit on the balcony that makes sitting on the balcony no good! It's loud and puts off heat. It wasn't in the pictures online. I would have rented elsewhere had I known.

Thank you so much for your feedback! We're glad to hear you enjoyed the location and found the beach access convenient. We truly appreciate your comments regarding the condo's decor and furniture, and we've shared your feedback with the property management team for review and consideration.
We also appreciate you bringing the balcony air conditioning unit to our attention. We understand how important it is to have a relaxing outdoor space, and we’re sorry this impacted your stay. Your insights help us improve, and we hope to have the opportunity to host you again.
Just as advertised, one bedroom was small but just about perfect for a family of 4. Our balcony overlooked the beach and the view did not disappoint. All amenities were great as well.

Found some dead bugs..about 2 inches long! in the bathroom when we got there..lol
Oh..might need to add some bars in the shower or non slip strips. It was really slick!
Other than that..the stay was great!

Condo
Not impressed with the condo itself , the lights flickered the ceiling fan was broken , placement of furniture was odd , but loved the kitchen ( why 2 mantles )
Had a wonderful time at this beautiful unit, but was missing things to make it a 5-star rating (kitchen lacked cutting board, coffee filters, scissors, and any seasoning whatsoever--like not even salt and pepper). We were never able to get Netflix or Amazon Prime working.
The view was perfect, the amenities (pools, hot tub, etc) we're lovely, and we generally really enjoyed it.

The view from the balcony was amazing. The beach is so beautiful. I should have stayed an extra day. The beds were really soft. The staff were all friendly. We had a great time. If we had to pick something negative it would be that i wish the pans i side were nonstick. Made them a pain to clean. Lol. But it really has everything you need. We'd totally stay again. Walmart close by for some groceries if needed.

Great place to stay!
We love staying at Sundestin and will probably come back again however there were a couple of items that they should know about and try to remedy. (1) there is a slight smell when you first enter the room, a chemical or something? (2) people in other rooms near ours were smoking pot on several evenings so we ended up not being able to use our balcony on those evenings.
Sundestin staff were friendly and wonderful to deal with and the amenities are great as well. We will most likely be back.

Very typical!
The unit was average at best, the decor was strange. No dining table? No end tables. One could hardly move around the bed in the small bedroom. The from view from the balcony is obstructed by the wide railing,, (taller seating perhaps).
An the private beach? if one isn’t paying a premium to rent a chair/umbrella combo,, you’re relegated to the (BACK OF THE BEACH) where you can’t see anything of the gulf or your younger family members. There’s enough room to walk thru the umbrellas.
It’s a pretty beach, but it’s largely not walkable.
Traffic in this area is a bit difficult to say the least.
I would not recommend this unit nor this building!

I picked the wrong unit
My fault. I did not notice that there wasn\'t a table and chairs, nor were there any lamps or side tables, and no table on the balcony on which to set my coffee cup or glass of iced tea. The things I could not see included the base of the counter in the main bathroom falling apart due to the inability to prevent water from falling on the floor when using the shower. It is difficult to move around the bed because it takes up most of the space in the bedroom. The mattress is comfortable, though. The ice maker in the refrigerator doesn\'t work and the two ice trays are cracked so that they only make 4 or 5 cubes of ice at a time. The faucet in the kitchen has the cartridge in 180 degrees off so that the hot water comes out if you push the lever to the cold side. If you are not aware of the cracked trays, the water floods out in the freezer creating a sheet of ice to remove. There is a good view of the beach from the balcony and the building is in a good location for visiting restaurants and attractions. I am not sure who has the responsibility for correcting these issues, but the unit could be a nice place to stay with a little help.
The condo was conveniently located on the beach. Staff was very pleasant. Lots of restaurants nearby. Just wish it was more sq ft, but other than that, the condo had everything we needed.
