This is a great condo. Good location, close to everything, and great beach access. The views from the balcony are priceless, you get both sunrises and sunsets. Matched photos and description 100%. We’ll definitely be back!

Wouldn’t Stay Anywhere Else

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We love Gulfgate!! It’s so clean, quiet, and safe! Room 305 was beautiful! The furniture and master bed were very uncomfortable (thinking they are just worn down), but we were at the beach or pool most of the time so it wasn’t a huge hinderance. The staff is always great and there’s never a wait at the elevators!! 10/10

Great location. the living room furniture was horrible.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Loved the condo. The living room furniture and dining room chairs were flat/concaved. They smelled. Obviously some big folks have stayed there for a long period. New cushions and steam clean the furniture and it should be good.
Response from VrboOwner on 19 March 2024
Since your stay the owner has replaced all of the dining chairs and had the sofa cushions re-stuffed. I did not notice a smell but had the sofa cleaned to be on the safe side. We hope you will come back and stay with us again at 305 Destin Gulfgate!

Mostly good, but disappointed in some furnishings.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our only complaint is that the furniture (den AND patio) was not in good condition. The cushions on the den couch need to be replaced. The patio furniture was NOT what is shown on the website. We chose this unit partly because the patio furniture online looked so comfortable and fresh. We were disappointed. I have stayed at DGG many times and this was the first time our friends joined us. Prior to the trip I sent the link to our friends, so they too were expecting more from the patio furniture.

Thank you for staying in unit 305. The owners’ recently completely replaced the living room furniture with a custom made living room set. Unfortunately, the salt air is very hard on outdoor furniture and needs frequent replacement. The owners’ have updated the pictures to show the new outdoor furniture. We hope that you will continue visiting DGG for future stays!

Mother’s Day Week Treat

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: For many years now me, my sister, our cousin and aunt go to Destin for Mother’s Day week as our treat to ourselves.We have tried several condos in the area but we love Destin Gulf Gate the most. We love the location, the helpful staff downstairs, the large size of each unit, built-in cabinet ice maker, the walk-in pool, gym, the cleanliness of every unit and the high standards that Destin Gulf Gate requires of its owners. We have stayed in a different unit each year and they have all been lovely.This year we chose unit 305 because of its price, its decorator and good reviews. We found the kitchen was well stocked with all the essentials. The beds where extremely comfortable, super soft bedding, plenty of bath towels, and a nice large washer and dryer. The refrigerator was new and large, the stove had many burners. The “cabana guys” on the beach were so polite and carried our ice chest to and from our umbrella each day. Christian and Bailey went beyond and above to see that these ol’ gals were taken care of. :)Thank you for another wonderful stay at Destin Gulfgate and we hope to return to unit 305 in the future.As a side note, recommendation to our favorite places to eat; Dewey’s on the bay (Crab Island) has THE BEST fried shrimp. The grouper sandwich is so good at the Back Porch (walking distance) and Tuscany Italian Bistro is delish. Also, Bochamps and Tommy Bahama’s did not disappoint this Mother’s Day brunch as Henderson Inn, but it’s a bit pricey. Enjoy!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The property is immaculate and the staff are friendly. Construction was happening and our patio furniture was in our living room for our entire stay. We were aware of this process before we arrived. Gulfgate had in writing the warning of balconies could be inaccessible. However it was a shock to come back from an outing to see everything in our condo. Without a call, text, or email for a warning. Some simple contact would have been considerate. Overall our stay was wonderful.
