The property was clean and a short walking distance to the beach and many great restaurants and stores. The check in process was easy. We had one issue, but it was addressed in an appropriate, timely manner. We got multiple follow up calls and visits to the property to ensure that the problem was fixed and we were comfortable. I highly recommend this place and I hope it is available for our next trip to Destin.
