Excellent condo with lots of room, balcony with great view and furniture plus, it is right in the beach with private access. We really enjoyed eating on the balcony and just hanging out in the beach. The balcony view of the ocean is spectacular, enabling us to see dolphins swimming and playing every day of our stay. The beds are very comfortable and having a bathroom in each bedroom is very convenient. The kitchen is well equipped with dish ware but you will need to bring everything you need to cook (I.e. spices, etc) since there are none provided. Great location in Destin and looking forward to coming back again in the future.- Reviewed On: 5/7/2024
YAY! We are so happy that you enjoyed your stay! The view is breathtaking, you next know what you might see. 🦀👙 Glad you were able to catch the Dolphins out playing. Isn't it Amazing!! ✨We would love to have you and you family back anytime. Please let us know how we can reserve your spot. This condo books up fast! Hope you had safe travels home, let us know if there is anything else we can do to help. Have an amazing day!Real Joy staff

Had a great stay with 180 panoramic views of the ocean. The building is not overcrowded and had a great pool for the kids. The condo was clean, not beat up, and had great kitchen stuff to make meals. We ate everyday on the patio with our family of 8.- Reviewed On: 8/12/2023

We stayed here for my bachelorette party and everything was perfect! No neighbor noise, easy walk to private section of beach, nice pool, and parking! The condo is completely updated with everything we needed in the kitchen to cook for 10. Location is easy to find for Uber and Lyft drivers as well. We had an issue with the door lock and maintenance had it fixed 15 minutes after we called! The view, the view, the view!! So stunning. All the beds were extremely comfortable and plenty of blankets and towels. Will definitely stay here again if I come with a group!!- Reviewed On: 5/7/2023

Beautiful condo with impressive views. Spacious layout, great location and beautifully renovated. Many of the nearby hotels/condos had packed beaches. The beach in front of Destin Towers is private with plenty of space for the # of units. Parking was very easy and never short on spaces. We never had to wait for an elevator which was a nice surprise. The pool and hot tub were never crowded. I would absolutely stay here again!- Reviewed On: 4/2/2022

Awesome spot for a family vacation with 6 adults and 2 children under 3. This was the perfect size for the family. Great views, lots of seating. Tons of kitchen utensils, bowls, plates, etc. Could use a few basics like oil or salt and pepper, but I understand that all hosts don't like to keep stuff like that in the cabinets as well. Nonetheless the grocery is a 7 min walk away. The only thing I suggest to all other people that stay is that if you plan to be moving around a lot, get a rental car, which we did not to our own fault. Uber was very hard to come by in Destin, we ended up finding a driver for the time I was there, but there isn't a TON to do in waking distance. Very short 4-7 min ride away can get you into the heart of Destin with shopping, bars, restaurants, etc.- Reviewed On: 8/31/2021
