Getaway

Choose this property for the view and location to the beach along with the heated pool and hot tub! The property could definitely benefit from a remodel. Outdated interior. Outlets were loose and some not usable. Microwave interior is rusty, etc…. That being said we chose this property for the amazing view of the gorgeous Gulf of Mexico!

Nice Complex

Very nice complex with pool and hot tub. Friendly staff. The condo was worn but in ok shape, the furniture stained, the carpet was disgustingly dirty and stained. The beds were very comfy. Make sure you bring your own coffee filters. I'd give this condo a 4, but with the condition of the carpet a 3. If they'd had tile flooring or some other movable flooring a definite 4 star.

Nice condo, great view

The condo worked well for our needs. It was clean but could use some upgrades. Everything was functional and everything we needed was there except for clothes hangers. I would recommend black out curtains on the bedroom windows for less light from the breezeway. We would stay here again.

Fun In The Sun

We had a great time staying here for our first family trip to Destin. The view from the balcony is beautiful, the beach is just steps away, the pool was clean, and you're super close to plenty of restaurants and entertainment. This particular unit is a bit older and could probably stand a few updates here and there, but we didn't see any major causes for concern. The AC worked, kitchen appliances all worked, and the beds were comfortable. Would gladly stay here again. Thank you!

Nice View Dirty Carpet

The view is very nice. The unit as a whole could be very nice. However the carpet and couches have to go! They were absolutely disgusting! We had to wear shoes inside the condo the whole time. And I had to cover the couches and couch throw pillows with sheets for us to even be able to sit on them. Needs a major deep clean! And the dryer fixed! But the view was beautiful

Clean, great location but very outdated for the price charged.

Condition of unit was clean, but could use an update. Seems like many years of just painting and patching where improvements and replacements were long overdue. Good location, but a bit over priced for value received.

If I could give negative stars, I would

The pictures of this home are not current, they are extremely old or have been edited. We would never stay in this home again. Between the extremely dirty/stained carpets and the mold, we slept there and spent no other time inside. If we wouldn't have had family in the same complex, we would have left immediately. It seems this is an income property, only, for the Owner. The Owner has no desire to make it livable.

In total need of update/repair!

First and foremost the unit has a fabulous view of the gulf from the 7th floor. The interior is in desperate need of an upgrade. Complete interior is outdated. Kitchen cabinet are aged with obvious paint chipping everywhere you look. Cieling fan fixtures barely mounted to the ceiling. Carpet has significant stains all throughout the unit. Majority of the electrical outlets will not hold a plug in it which is potentially a fire hazard. Several of the outlets did not work. Master bath water pressure was mediocre at best. Steer clear of this unit. Definitely not worth the money.

Dirty carpet, Needs Updating

A/C was broken but Vacasa repaired it same day. Picture I took from balcony into living room showed how dirty the carpet is, now I’m wondering how clean the couch and Loveseat are, so we covered both with the sheets provided for the pull out. Kitchen and bathrooms were very clean. They are very stingy with what they will provide. 2 tiny dish towels and the bathroom towels are very cheap and scratchy. Bunk bed is only appropriate for kids… 3 foot clearance on bottom bunk. Blinds need to be replaced. They fell down when I tried to change the direction of blinds. Bright lights coming into the bedrooms because they are on the walkway side. Had to put a towel I brought over the window so I could sleep. Toilet ran every 10 Minutes in the big bedroom. All this is on the owner… Vacasa was very responsive; they fixed what they could. Someone needs to actually stay in these units to see what needs attention. Obviously purchased for investment only. Pool and jacuzzi nice and I saw them drain and maintain it and the access to the beach is nice. The umbrellas and chairs you rent take up the whole beach. You get to sit behind them if you bring your own chairs or pay the rental fee if $45 for the day or $30 for later half of the day.

This condo has a beautiful view of the ocean and easy access to the highway and a real beachy feel and furnishings. It has nice appliances and is very clean. It does need a bit of updating and detail repair.

Great view, needs updating

The view and amenities were great. However for the price this unit is in need of updates, especially the blinds. Quite a few were missing from the balcony and master bedroom (we had to hang a blanket over the master bedroom window to allow privacy from people walking by outside) - Some curtains would be nice to allow privacy. The bunk bed also needs updating as it’s not the sturdiest piece of furniture and we had a 6 year old sleeping on the top bunk. We loved that the condo had a washer/dryer but we could not close the laundry room door as it scraped against the dryer every time you try to open/close the door. All in all we love Vacasa and the condominium but would choose a different unit in the future.

We had a great time. Beach umbrellas are pricey that’s the only thing I would change, include two chairs and umbrella in price. Otherwise it was delightful.
