Honeymoon

We had a great time. Quiet and relaxing stay. The beach service was great, it made our beach time so easy. The property was very nice and clean. We grilled out one night and enjoyed sitting in the grill area it's a nice piece to the property. Our room was beautiful couldn't ask for a better experience. We arrived on April 24th so I can imagine our experience may differ from summer. With that said it is still a beautiful place to spend your vacation.

Outdated property, Listing is misleading

This property was not worth the time or money. The unit we had is outdated (furniture & overall living quarters). It gives “hotel” vibes & rules and you pretty much provide your own amenities. The staff could have cared less if we were enjoying our stay, you could tell they are there just to collect a paycheck. Have yet to speak with the property manager (I guess she is still on vacation from when I initially called 2months ago). The elevator only allowed 3 people on at a time (because it is old & outdated). The ONLY enjoyable thing of our entire stay was the memory foam pillow top mattress.

My husband and I were in desperate need of a little getaway time. We normally go to Perdido or Orange Beach but really wanted to check out the Destin area. I found this location on VRBO and it checked all the boxes. We loved everything about it.

Great stay

We’ve been renting through VRBO for many years now and this condo was VERY clean!!!! I’m really picky about where I stay and I would definitely stay here again. It was the perfect location and such a quick walk to the beach. Beach chairs were very easy to get on the beach. The pool was cleaned every day. The front desk was very helpful and there was plenty of parking. It was also very close to all the restaurants and not to far from Miramar beach. We had such a great stay and will be back to Destin very soon!

New Favorite

Destin is our families favorite Florida beach and now the Holiday Isle is our new favorite area to stay in. Holiday Isle and Raquet Club is very family friendly and a little removed from the more crowded beaches of the high rises up Hwy 98.. Unit 316 was clean, nice view and had enough room for 2 adults and 2 kids. Beach chairs included with our stay was a plus. We hope to come back again soon.

Best Family Destination

Our family of three absolutely loved staying at Holiday Surf and Raquet Club. It was beautiful and so nice. The condo was clean, cutely decorated, and very relaxing and had all of the amenities necessary to avoid going out to eat all week. Our family is already planning to come back to the same resort!

Awesome stay!

Wasn’t sure what to expect when booking but we got here and the room was super cute and made us feel right at home. The view is amazing and you’re right on some of the clearest water on the beach. Very nice, upscale neighborhood and literally 2 minutes from everything you need to get to. We will definitely be back!
