The owner was very helpful with everything that we threw at her, including issues of our own making.The unit was exceptional in every way.That property was well maintained and in a great location.We would want to stay here again except on our next vacation there will be 6 of us.
We had a wonderful stay at Gulfgate in Destin! Jeffry was so kind and The condo was clean, comfortable, and incredibly convenient—right on the beach with easy access to restaurants and shopping. It was also surprisingly affordable for the location. Everything about our trip was enjoyable, and we’d definitely stay here again!
This was a beautiful week full of blue skies, emerald waters, and lots of great food. Communication with the owner of the condo was amazing. She answered all our questions before we asked. The condo was well maintained and clean. It was equipped with anything you might need. We will definitely be back.
What a wonderful find in Destin! This unit is right on the beach, first floor with outstanding views. Easy access to everything you need including pool, beach access, grilling station, chair rentals, trash disposal, and parking. Great location in the center of everything - can even walk to restaurants. The owner made everything easy with no issue with getting in or understanding instructions for the unit. I think you would not be disappointed at all with this rental!!
We felt welcomed before we even got to Destin. Got a phone call from Jeffry, the property owner, wanting to ensure we had the necessary information before arrival. And her communication continued to be excellent. The condo is lovely- beautifully decorated and very clean. The kitchen is fully equipped - had everything we needed. Beds comfortable. Balcony was a favorite location for breakfast and evenings..so relaxing. The location is excellent…literally steps from the beach, and short walk to Back Porch restaurant. Pete, the beach attendant for the condos, is wonderful- very accommodating and helpful! Can’t say enough about this beautiful place. Hoping to stay again.
The location is excellent and the property is wonderful! It is gated which was very nice. Jeffry is awesome to work with and very responsive to any questions or requests we had. The unit is large and we had plenty of room. We would definitely stay again!
We have vacationed in Destin for years and this was by far our favorite space yet! You can’t beat the view and it’s an easy walk to the pool and beach!

We loved our stay at Gulfgate!
Gulfgate is an amazing place to stay. We love it because it's centrally located and a perfect spot on the beach.
Jeffry was great at communicating throughout lour stay. He gave us all of our information up front in plenty of time and responded when we needed him. The condo was in a perfect location, close to all kinds of entertainment, restaurants, and the beach! The condo was especially clean with essentials provided and tastefully decorated. The master bed was super comfortable as was the rest od the furniture. We'll definitely keep this space in mind for our next Destin trip!!!
Great stay. Unit was exactly as pictured. Host was wonderful - very responsive and helpful. Property was great, pool was perfect for kids. We are already looking at the calendar to find future dates. Would definitely book again!
What a charming place to stay..Very clean.. Very comfortable and so very nicely decorated. Very large balcony..GREAT view..Would not hesitate to stay here again..
This was a very comforting condo. The view was great! We throughly enjoy our stay.

Convenient and great view!
Destin Gulfgate was very conveniently located to The Track and many restaurants including one of my family's favorites - The Back Porch. The condo was very comfortable and a beautiful view of the water. We will stay here again.
If you want to be ON the beach, this is for you. Balcony is shady for most of morning and quite a bit of the afternoon. No need to leave the condo for a million $ sunset. Ver close to restaurants and grocery. Owner was super helpful and communicative in spite of my credit card putting a fraud alert on the room charge and him not receiving the complete payment until the day after we arrived. I can't think of anything to say except glowing praise.

About the host
Hosted by Jeffry W. Armstrong
We are a 'divided' household with one from 'Ole Miss' and one from 'Mississippi State'. Both of us started coming to Destin for vacations when we were just kids and NOW in our next 'kid' life, we spend about 50% of our time either fishing or 'beaching' in Destin.
Why they chose this property
Location! Location! Location! That describes Destin Gulfgate perfectly. Destin Gulfgate is right in the middle of Destin....It is close to everything. We also bought into Gulfgate because of the quality of construction and the size of the units. Since our family likes to cook, we thought that the size of the kitchen allowed for family gathering in planning and executing the preparation of meals. Gulfgate is a community that is willing to work to keep the property at its very best with up to date amenities for its owners and rental guests.
What makes this property unique
Since Destin Gulfgate is only 65 units, its 465 feet of beachfront property.....right on the Gulf of Mexico, allows for everyone using our beach to be comfortable and not crowded. We have one of the best beach services available in Destin and your beach set up of two chairs and a umbrella will be calling you from the time you get up in the morning until the sun is almost going down. The new zero-entrance swimming pool and fitness center will be on your list of MUST DOs!!! Don't forget that with weather permitting, leave your sliding door open to get the benefit of the gentle wave action putting you to sleep at night.......what a great asset of being on the first floor(second level)........also being able to just use the stairway(and not go through the office or use the elevator) is something that makes one feel like they are in an island paradise all to themselves. Some of the other activities that you will enjoy outside, but close to our condo are the following: The Track Amusement Park is just a very short walk across the street. The Big Kahuna's Water Park is less than 1 mile down the 98 Highway. The Destin Harbor Fishing Fleet, the largest Charter Boat port in Florida, is less than 2 miles away and we can offer good tips on who to charter with. There are 12 World Class Golf courses in the area as well as an easy public course. Destin Commons Village Shopping has many great shops, Bass Pro Shop, Hard Rock Cafe, Bonefish Grill, a Rave Movie theater and others nearby. Silver Shells Outlet Center, the largest Designer Outlet shopping in is within a few miles. One of the newer Italian restaurants is only a mile away. Put it on your list for sure.........'MIMMOS'
