The place was perfect. Convenient location literally 5 mins from anywhere u might need to go. Supermarket liquor store Walmart coffee restaurants all within 5 min drive. The view was a beauty. Bed was comfy. The little store in the lobby was open late and had any essentials u might need to grab quick or last minute for on the beach or inside the condo. Staff was friendly and helpful. A little restaraunt right next to the pools u can get a quick bite at. The grills outside were so clutch we grilled food every night and made it such a vibe. Loved the place !!! It was perfect clean comfortable and had everything you need :)

Despite the current renovations that are ongoing, the noise was not noticeable to us as we were on the beach or doing something most of the time there was any noise. Staff were nice and helpful. Food and drinks at the restaurant were great and the staff at the gift shop were great, prices were a little higher but for the convenience it was worth it. The condo we were in was cleaned spotless before we arrived and never had any issues. They are upfront about parking issues and the linens. If you read the rental agreement they send you prior to arriving it details all of that. We will be coming back soon.

I stayed here from May 11 to May 16, 2025. It was a solo vacation for me and this property was perfect. It was a gorgeous view from the balcony and the condo itself was very nice and clean, and very true to the listing. The communication with the property manager was wonderful. I didn't need anything during my stay but they made sure I knew exactly how to contact them if need be. Overall, I was very happy and would highly recommend this property for a solo trip, or a trip with a small group.

This was a great place. Convenient to shopping and restaurants. Location was clean and very friendly. One of the cleanest places we have stayed in Destin.
