Everything you need!

My husband and I decided at the last minute to getaway from the winter weather. This place was perfectly located across from the gorgeous beach. Close to everything you could need. Would go back again!

Fabulous weekend

This condo is fabulous. So clean, well appointed, beautifully decorated - 2 king beds/2 baths. Perfect for two couples and bunk beds if there are children also. Nice dishes and cookware - I will definitely save as a favorite.

Michael was super responsive and helpful. Good location as the area is less commercial with nice wide sidewalks with anything you want within a short drive. Couple of great restaurants within walking distance. Easy access to the beach. Keep in mind, no elevator so you need to be able to take stairs to the third floor. Would definitely stay here again.

Perfect!

The condo was great for a family getaway! The two younger boys loved the bunk beds, there were plenty of dishes, pots and pans, and cooking utensils. It’s a 2 minute walk to the beach. Seriously, a perfect place to stay. Any correspondence with the owner was answered quickly. We will definitely return!

Beautiful & Comfy

Great Location! Condo has all the small amenities that make vacationing a little less stressful ( few days worth of toiletries, 1 load worth of detergent & softener sheets, make-up mirror, beach gear ) . Condo was immaculate & decor was super cool. The building itself is a bit dated. There is no elevator, so taking luggage up 3 flights was a bit difficult, but doable. Michael gave information early and was very accessible, if needed.

Couldn’t ask for better!! Amazing!

This property is FANTASTIC!! The pictures don’t do it justice! It’s a huge condo! Each bedroom is enormous with great decor, comfortable bedding! Water pressure was fantastic! Washer and dryer was super convenient! Living room, dining room, and kitchen were also big, plus they were stocked with everything we need (including salt and pepper which is a big deal!) the balcony is to die for! The openness off the living room really lightens up the place! The balcony has amazing views and plenty of seating. The biggest bonus is the beach access right across the street. Closer than you would think! Best condo we’ve stayed in and we’ve been coming to Destin for 10 years!

Great Location!

The unit was in a great location. The walk across the street to the beach was very convenient and easy to access. The pool was perfect too. My only complaint is that the unit is on the third floor and there are no elevators. Lots of stuff to walk up three flights of stairs. Overall we would definitely stay again. Great unit.

Hidden Gem

I debated about writing a great review because then the secret will be out. Michael is a great owner to work with. This condo was great for our family of five. Having two bedrooms and two bathrooms was an added bonus to some of our trips to Florida. Not all units in this condo have 2 bedrooms. The walk to the beach was just right across the street. The grandkids loved the pool area. We will definitely be back for sure.

Ohhh the ocean view

Ohh the ocean view!!! Spent oodles of serene time on the balcony. Full view of sunrise and sunset. No need for an APP you can hear the ocean waves lull you to sleep. Kudos to the owner. He was super responsive and invested in accommodating any request. Unit layout great, primary bedroom away from living/dining. It is inviting and clean. Kitchen is well equipped. In unit washer and dryer a huge plus. Beds sooo comfortablt. Building in very clean. Pool is immaculate. Enjoy!!

Decent place

Overall, great stay. Host, Michael was the absolute best part. Condo could have been cleaner. There were broken blinds. Used bottle waters were left in the condo as well as used washcloths. Balcony/furniture was not clean. Could have used more toilet tissue and paper towel. There is no elevator, so be prepared to take the flights of stairs. Great location. Would recommend.

Crystal Beach fun

We all loved the location of the property, just a short walk to the beach. Everything in the unit functioned but the unit was in need of a deep cleaning and painting. Mold in the bath rooms, wood work and base boards and vanities all scuffed and dinged up, kitchen cabinets must be original from many years ago, functional. No wow factor when entering the unit. Also, we didn't realize there wasn't an elevator, so we carried everything up three flights of stairs and made a lot of trips up and down the stairs during our stay. The pool was nice as was the hot tub.

Beautiful Condo/Beach

First off, Destin is absolutely beautiful!! It is absolutely true that the sand is white and the water is a gorgeous blue! I can see why this is called the Emerald Coast. The condo was very clean and very close to the beach. Literally you can walk to the beach in a couple of minutes. What I loved about the condo is that it is located in a quiet neighborhood, however, very convenient to shopping, restaurants, and entertainment. It was very nice to have a pool to relax in after being on the beach all day. The condo provided what you would need to cook a meal if you did not want to go out. We were able to cook breakfast one morning and grill out another night. The owner was very quick to respond to any questions or concerns when I reached out. All around great place to stay for vacation in Destin. The reason I didn't give a 5 star is due to we had no WIFI the whole week we were there. Also... as a recommendation... I would suggest getting softer mattresses. The beds were pretty hard. It made it a bit difficult to sleep for someone who was 24 weeks pregnant and for a husband who has Siactic Nerve problems. I would highly recommend this condo to others who come to Destin for vacation! We look forward to visiting again! Thank you again to Michael for letting us spend the week in the condo! We had an amazing time!! We can't wait to come back!!!

Cleanliness standards were very low

The location of the property is great. I’ve stayed at the unit next door many times, but it was unavailable this time. Expected that this place would be a very similar experience. Unfortunately, I did not. I’ll say this Michael was very responsive to communication and seems like a nice person overall. But, I had to file a chargeback with my credit card company for the first time due to this stay. After providing pictures that showed the lack of cleanliness of the unit I instantly received a full refund back for my stay. That should tell you everything you need to know about staying here. We had to spend our vacation time cleaning it to bring it to a decent standard. Michael was very communicative throughout the process but I was disappointed in his response which was basically that he and his wife only visit once a year to do “refreshes” so we’d have kind of need to suck it up because it’s a rental unit. But once I sent him pictures, his tune changed. Then the story became about him just hiring a new housekeeper, and her still needing areas of improvement. This is fine, but you should be figuring out those areas of improvement before renters get into the home not once they have paid to be there (a basic checklist might help). He also stated that she wasn't “deep cleaning” until later that month. My immediate thought we are in a post-Covid world! Every cleaning should be a deep cleaning. So, lots of issues with cleanliness which should always be a be a top priority.

Love the location…

We’ve stay in this complex before, this unit was great, could use some new shower curtains, moldy! The location you can’t beat!! Only thing that that was different from last time was the beach policies! Didn’t know there we be in tent jail! 40ft is all you had for the public with tents and canopies! It got a little crowded! You can go outside the cones if you have no tent or canopy, little hot for that! But any ways, the banana boat was super close!
