Destin 2024

Check-in process was great. We were even able to check in two hours early. We did have to reach out to the property manger regarding debris coming from an air vent above the top bunk, the tv in the bunk room not working, and the a/c holding temps b/w 85-90 degrees. The property manager was very responsive and sent an A/C technician to check the cooling issue the next day. It ultimately appeared to be a remote program setting we could not control independently. There was ultimately no remedy for the debris coming from the air vent above the bunk during our stay. We did close it to prevent further debris falling on our son, however, this increased the room temp. The tv was also not addressed. I can say the condo was well stocked with chairs, beach cart, floats, etc. A muffin tin could be added in the kitchen. :)

Wonderful accommodations

This 2 BR/ 2BA faculty on the first floor with a back patio on the water was wonderful. It was a very comfy quiet place with a short walk to the beach. The owner was very supportive with quick reply’s every time. We were given a door access app on our phones ahead of time and it was called “August access utility” I think and it worked great. That was good since the manual push button keypad approach didn’t work for us. We also loved how all of the access information was provided to us immediately after we booked it several weeks ahead of time and it’s always comforting to have all that information provided so early. We thank the owners for such a wonderful stay and we highly recommend it.

Exactly as described, close to beach, close to everything

Exactly as described in the listing. Easy access to everything in the Destin area. Close proximity to the beach (walkable) or parking spaces available close by. End of the road provides easy viewing of fire works.

Thanks for allowing us to rent your property. The weather was cold for Florida in December but we had a great time. Just make sure you reach out to the property manager to confirm the code to the property. We had slight issues but it all worked out. Overall, would rent again. Thanks!!

Beautiful Place, Terrible Communication

Firstly, the property was beautiful. It was a wonderful place to stay, close to everything, and only a short walk to the beach. However, the check-in process was horrible. No one contacted us with the door code. My family & I sat at a local business emailing and calling customer service for nearly 2 hours. After talking to approximately 6 people, we FINALLY got a door code to check in. Like I said, our stay was wonderful but the customer service of Evolve really needs to step up.

Amazing place-not so great customer service

This room was amazing! One of the prettiest and best decorated places I have ever stayed at. The walk to the beach was short, and the views from the balcony were gorgeous! Overall, we really loved our stay here! However, the add was a bit misleading. There is not complementary beach service with chairs. In the room there is a double camp chair, and that is all. When we used the beach chairs/service on the beach, we had to pay $28 for 1 chair for 1/2 a day. There was also no Netflix, as stated in the add. When we reached out to the provided contact to ask about these things, we were met with very harsh and rude customer service. We tried to be understanding and not get upset about these things (when we first reached out, we were honestly just asking if we were suppose to have it or not after having some issues at the beach, and we didn’t watch much TV so Netflix wasn’t a big deal either), but rather than apologizing for the mistake, we were responded to with statements such as “well if you just read the add, you would CLEARLY see it was just COMPLEMENTARY anyways”. Evolve was very helpful in refunding us $150 for this misleading information, but please be aware before you stay here about this. Once again, the room itself was beautiful and a great place for us to stay. Customer service is just lacking.

Very clean condo

We loved staying here. I'm a self proclaimed germaphobe, and usually am disappointed in the level of cleanliness when I travel. However, this condo was extremely clean and made me feel very comfortable staying here. The kitchen was very nice, and the bunk room was perfect for our three girls. The location was great! It was really fun watching turtles and fish in the canal as well. It was such a wonderful place to stay and would recommend it to anyone. We look forward to returning!

Beautiful and Convenient

The home is perfectly positioned near everything with the beach in walking distance! It was organized in a manner to make their guests feel at home. The balcony was a peaceful place to relax early in the morning or late evening. I would definitely book again and encourage others, as well.

Lovely and Inviting

We loved the size of the condo, the very pleasing decor and thoughtfulness of all the accommodations. We enjoyed the wildlife (cranes, crabs, ducks, seagulls) from the balcony. The ocean and private beach front were super convenient to get to. Absolutely beautiful and equally relaxing. Tennis courts were nice, and all staff and guest were very friendly. We did ultimately leave a day early only because of the beds. We were uncomfortable, restless and not sleeping well. We were all just ready to be home in our own beds. We are 100% still giving our stay and experience 5 stars. Others might not be as sensitive as we were and everything else was absolutely perfect. Thank you for opening your home to us for this trip. It was truly a pleasure!

Convenience!!

We were right on the canal all I had to do was walk out the door and I was ready to fish. I’d have to say fishing wasn’t great but compared to a pier it was close to the same and I didn’t have to leave my family and I could watch my poles from our balcony. The beach is right across the road with parking it made it very convenient. The water was as clear as a spring with the cleanest white sand.
