Thank you for your review! We hope to host you at The Gulf Jewel again soon!
We had a great stay here. The unit was clean and as described in the pictures. We had a very minor maintenance issue and it was addressed almost immediately. We normally stay in the heart of Destin, but loved this location as it was a bit more quiet and relaxed. The pool and hot tub were VERY clean, which I love. Other properties seem to struggle in pool area cleanliness.
This was one of the best condominiums that we’ve stayed in. I am very big on cleanliness and location. This place has it all. The entire premises is well cared for- from the stairwell to the parking lot to the condominium itself. It’s also well-stocked with kitchen accessories, although we didn’t use them because I wanted to get out as much as possible. The gated community and private beach are also pluses. My family and I definitely recommend.

This condo is perfect! The place was spotlessly clean, beds were comfortable, kitchen stocked with all you need to cook a meal. The washer and dryer were a plus and the balcony was a perfect view of the beautiful ocean. Property was new, clean and many amenities to include hot tub, heated pool, outdoor grilling area and a fire pit. Would stay again for sure!

The Gulf Jewel was incredibly spacious! Room for everyone! The balcony was the perfect spot for everyone to gather in the evenings! Loved the newer but smaller complex...which means less crowds. Also enjoyed the walk in pool and hot tub.
