The property was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed the location, the pool and pickleball courts were nicely maintained. Our only suggestion would be on a few amenities. A cordless vacuum like a Shark or Dyson would be most appreciated for picking up sand. The broom was ok but the dustpan was old and made picking up the sand difficult. Also, some coffee filters for the machine and a couple of extra laundry pods would be good since the washer is small and they request the towels be washed. It takes at least 2-3 loads to wash the towes used. But these are small suggestions. The property and location were great with fantastic beach access. Would stay again.

The condo was homey for sure but it did need a really good dusting. It was nice of them to have chairs and a nice canopy for use. The walk wasn’t too bad to the beach. Please bring everything or be prepared to buy everything as the condo only provides a thing of paper towels and a couple rolls of toilet paper. Neighbors are really nice and beaches are beautiful.

Perfect family getaway!

Our family loved our stay in this beautiful, quaint, quiet little community condo, nestled just a short walk across the street from the ocean and private beach. We were walking distance from two amazing restaurants, and a short drive to shops and enertainment. The community pool was heated which was a nice surprise, and everyone we met was so nice. We loved the area and our cozy stay!

Beach peaceful getaway

I wanted to go to Destin, Fl for the gorgeous beaches. I had no idea where to go or where to stay in Destin. Turns out this was a great location! Just a short walk to the beach from the condo and easy beach access. Lots of restaurants, shops and grocery stores with in a short drive from the condo. I also appreciated that the area wasn’t congested or overwhelming! Would definitely stay here again!

Relief from the stress of Hurricane Helene

We are from Augusta GA. We had been without power and water for 7 days from Hurricane Helene. We needed to find a relaxing place to go to until our power was back up. The place was very nice and spacious. It just felt good to be in a place that had power and water so we could relax. Everything in the place was very nice. We loved the location. The only complaint is that the floors were dirty.

Beach vacation

The condo was well supplied. Overall, we enjoyed our stay but there were a few things that were disappointing. There was only one dumpster that was far from our unit, which was inconvenient since you have to take out your trash.There was a very small TV in yhe 2nd bedroom that wouldn't work. You could only turn it on and use the volume buttons. You couldn't change the channel. It woukd have also been nice to have a small vacuum to help with sand.
