Cleaning issues
Starting with the positives, the location of this property is ideal. It’s right on the beach and close to Whole Foods and a shopping mall. However, that’s where the good ends. The property itself is filthy, dirty, and outdated. While the towels were nice and fluffy, unfortunately, that was the only highlight. The pillowcases and blankets had clearly not been washed prior to our arrival, and the apartment was extremely dusty. I really wanted to like this property, and it has potential, but it desperately needs more attention to cleanliness. Being on the beach, it’s understandable that sand might get into the apartment. However, when I requested a vacuum, I was told they didn’t have one available, forcing me to purchase a Swiffer mop to clean up the sand myself. Given the hefty cleaning fee (around $500-$600), the apartment should have been spotless, but it was far from it. The windows on the balcony were filthy, which detracted from the stunning view. It was obvious they hadn’t been cleaned in months. The couch and chairs were visibly dirty, and the kitchen was cluttered with old, useless items, though it did have plenty of plates. Additionally, they didn’t provide trash bags, expecting guests to buy their own. The bedding was cheap, synthetic, and noisy—every movement in bed was disturbingly loud for my partner. Worst of all, there was mold on the kitchen air vent. Overall, while the location and view are excellent, the apartment itself is old, dirty, and poorly maintained

Great Spring Break spot
Everything in the condo was exactly as pictured, clean, and perfect for my family. We loved being right on the beach! Sitting on the balcony was very relaxing. We had no problems at all! Our only “suggestion” would be a rug or something in the entry hall. Thank you, we really enjoyed our stay

Like-new beach condo with fabulous views!
We just completed an 11-night stay at this property and had a great time. This condo is exactly as pictured on the site. It was recently renovated. Everything is new, fresh, and clean. It's comfortable and has a great beach vibe. The complex is well maintained and very quiet. Check in and out was super easy with keyless entry. We got detailed instructions for everything in advance. The kitchen is very well equipped. We cooked quite a bit and had everything we needed. You could easily stay here long term. Being right on the beach is the best and this condo is in a great location 5 minutes from tons of shopping, including grocery and drug stores. Loved waking up each morning to that gorgeous view and even seeing dolphins from our balcony! Ignore the older reviews. This is a beautiful condo-you won't be disappointed!

Beautiful Updated Condo But...
Everything was beautiful, this unit is REALLY NICE!! The decor, as well as the upgrades were simply BEAUTIFUL. And the property manager was very responsive and easy to contact. However, the covers on the beds weren't clean, there were stains on ALL 3 of the bedspreads (not fluffy enough to be called a comforters). The pillows on the bed were a little musty and the extra blankets were as well. Very annoying because I had to go to Walmart to get Tide and fabric softner, and throw everything in the washer and dryer. Overall, it was a nice place to stay.

The place was excellent for our needs. We stayed in Unit 202A. The Unit itself was beautiful inside completely updated. The building's outside structure is older with a small rectangular pool which did not affect us. We were right on the beach, no problems reserving chairs & umbrella. The other renters were so friendly. The upkeep of the property was amazing. Through out the day the grounds keepers were sweeping the sidewalks, cleaning the elevator, etc. The property is amazingly clean - DEFINITELY WORTH THE STAY!!! Lots of security. Quiet

Perfect Location!
Perfect spot for little ones that want to stay right in the beach but also enjoy a wonderfully heated pool. The best of both worlds. Destin beaches are like heaven on earth. I would suggest bringing your own beach towels as those are not included at the condo as well as your own beach toys. Make sure you bring some laundry soap and having the washer/dryer is a huge perk! No laundry when you return home! Bring some dishwasher pods, paper towels, and TP as you will get just enough to get you started. We had a wonderful time! Thank you!!

Great condo, sugar sands and relaxation!
We stayed for a week and wish we could have stayed longer. Condo was well equipped and cozy and didn’t have any issues. Everyone staying in the other condos were very friendly and most were regular visitors making them great tour guides. It’s a hip skip and a jump from the main drag so it’s super convenient for shopping and great eats.

Great location, great updated layout. We’ve been coming to this area for 5 years, this unit is recently updated and love the re-do of the kitchen area. Property was clean and great space for everything you need. Kitchen had basic items and close proximity to grocery store and shopping if you need anything.
