This was a cute condo, just right for 2 people. We had some issues with the batteries not working in the door lock to allow us entry, but the host’s response was quick and satisfactory.

Location, location!! Very clean place so close to beaches and commerce. However, even the most attractive property doesn't not shine enough without its host. Christina is not only very professional, but she is sincere human being caring for her customers. Her attention to all details and the way she is focusing on their clients is second to none. Thank you for all your help!

The cottage was conveniently located near the beach. You could leave the cottage and be standing on the beach within 3 minutes. The cottage was fresh and clean and felt comfortable to stay in. I liked that the host was quick to respond during the booking and checking-in process.

We really liked the location and laid back vibe of the neighborhood. My family specifically did not want to stay in the busy high rise area. Pool was great, shopping and grocery within walking distance. Would stay at again.

Thank you for the feedback! We fixed the door handle. End of summer, there are always little things to repair and refresh. Hope to see you again next time you come to Destin!

Crystal beach one of best

Outside place to stay with walking to beach just across road. Crystal beach is one of best beaches. One drawback of Crystal Beach is no public restroom. With rental location you can just go back to room which is perfect. Not to mention outstanding accommodations.

If you’ve ever wondered what it’s like to live underneath a 24/7 toddler marathon training camp, this is your chance. The upstairs guest (a very energetic child, we assume) started their daily sprints promptly between 6–7am and kept the training going well into the night yes, including around 2am. Impressive stamina, truly.Unfortunately, the soundproofing seems more “paper-thin chic” than peaceful retreat. At one point, I’m fairly certain we could’ve participated in their upstairs conversations if we wanted to.As for the bed… calling it “uncomfortable” feels generous. Between the mattress and the nightly/early morning footrace above us, sleep was more of a hopeful concept than a reality.If you’re a deep sleeper or enjoy the ambiance of constant footsteps, this might be your place. Otherwise, you may want to pack earplugs… and maybe your own mattress.

Just as described

The rental is small—but you must already know that if you’re booking a studio condo. There are no frills—be prepared to buy toilet paper, salt and pepper and basic necessities. But this was clearly advertised and it definitely met our needs. The beach was gorgeous and steps away and the pool was a wonderful way to unwind after the beach. Camille’s is a restaurant in walking distance but otherwise be prepared to drive to other locations and attractions. Or Uber, there is lots of availability in Destin.
