Really enjoyed our stay at this newly redone condo. Very clean, quiet and convenient to restaurants and activities. Great location between Destin and Fort Walton/Okaloosa. Only thing we missed was a view of the water that we’ve always been accustomed to with other rentals. Overall a great rental though!
We had a complication come up a few weeks before our stay. Owners were willing to work with us. Thankfully, it worked out for us to come after all and it was a great vacation. This was our first rental through vrbo, and it couldn't have been an easier process. Renting a place with no reviews was risky for me, but the rental was exactly as listed. Easy access, close proximity to the beach and pool, plus anything you'd want in town. The home was very clean and well stocked was all basic necessities. 1,000% I would stay here again, and recommend it for anyone coming to this area.
This is the sweetest condo. We stayed 2 wks in Jan. Love the relaxing beach decor and colors. Love the quality comfortable furniture throughout including comfy beds. Kitchen well stocked. Buildings and grounds are well maintained. Owner is very accommodating and responds quickly. Would stay here again!
