We enjoyed our stay at Ocean Aire. Very much, Jodi was attentive and welcoming. We had minor issue that was immediately addressed. The bathrooms were all updated and very clean.
The view from this condo is amazing, White sand and turquoise water. Nicely furnished and comfortable beds. Enjoyed the beach, pool and onsite beach bar.
3rd year staying at Silver Shells and it hasn’t disappointed. Great pool area, beach and Sand Bar are awesome.

Very clean, perfect location!
Plenty of space for us. We loved the large balcony with the ocean and pool view. We even utilized the second balcony overlooking the pickle ball courts.
We very much enjoyed our stay and will be back! Great amenities and everything was even more beautiful in person. Couldn't complain about our experience if I tried...
My family of 7 had an incredible week here! Not only was the beach/pool beautiful, the condo itself was fantastic! Decorated beautifully, clean as can be, and equipped with everything you need.
We would 100% recommend & absolutely come back.

Wonderful
I’ve been coming to Destin since 1990. This was the best condo we’ve ever rented. Everything was wonderful. The condo was spectacular and everything was easy and stress free. We will always stay here from now on! Thanks so much to the owner for keeping it so updated!!!
Great condo. Really enjoyed our stay. Great space. Would have liked to see bath mats in bathrooms and more towels. Also felt like security guards are overly aggressive about asking for arms bands. Would definitely stay here again. My family really enjoyed staying there!

Our family had a great time at this property. It's a great location with a fabulous view. The photos were very accurate and the condo was a good size and fit us perfectly. The property and beach was well maintained and clean. I would highly recommend the property to anyone.If there is one piece of feedback it's that the curtains in the master bedroom did not block light very well, so as soon as it got light out it was time to get up.
Condo is beautifully decorated and plenty of room for everyone!! Conveniently located to plenty of restaurants and shopping. Great view of the beach (loved watching the sunrises) and the pool. The only thing I could recommend is to have a few extra blankets for the beds. It was chilly a couple of nights and the blankets on the beds are thin for the warmer months. Otherwise we had an amazing time and would definitely rent again!!

We greatly enjoyed our stay at the St. Croix 1201 condo. The views from the balcony and windows were amazing. There was plenty of room for the 7 people who stayed in the condo. There was an issue with the washing machine not completing a cycle but truly that was the only problem we had. Thank you for letting us stay at your condo.
Everything in this condo is exactly like what you see in the pictures. Perfect Gulf views and Bay views. We loved our time here!
There are only a couple of things that would have made our stay better: washer doesn’t spin water out and dryer took forever to dry clothes. The gulf view bedroom mattress is very firm compared to the other beds. The rug in the living room needs cleaned, our crawling grand baby had some dirty hands and knees. An Insta Pot/Crockpot would be a great addition to the well stocked kitchen.
Overall, great place to stay!
We enjoyed our stay in Ocean Aire. Very nicely done unit with a beautiful view of the ocean. It could have been cleaner. We found long black hair all over the unit. And after showering, we used a towel to wipe up some water and the towel turned black from the dirt on the floor. Nothing major and because the unit was so nice, it would not prevent us from staying again.
I have stayed in Destin at least 10 different times. I have stayed in condos half the time and houses the other half. We listed the pros and cons on our way home from this trip. Pros: condo is beautiful. I love the set up, space, decorations, THE VIEWS and location to beach and other activities in Destin(perfection). Upon arrival the couch was soaked from being deep cleaned is my guess??? Which that is fine, we stayed off of it the first day or so. We had serious plumbing issues in a bathroom with toilet and the shower would not drain and then another toilet as well. This was night one at about 10 pm. I contacted the number and I the issue was addressed early the next morning. It took maintenance about 3 hours to work on it to fix it, but the rest of the time it worked PERFECT. I think it would be handy for some cleaning things to be left at the place. There was NOT a broom and we went to store and they were sold out!!! What are the odds? That would have been very helpful b/c a lot of sand and junk that we could have cleaned up ourselves. There is a loud noise when dryer goes, but I think it may be a neighbor's dryer actually? We thought it was the air vent for a bit, but not sure. So the loud noise was a lot but not too much for me not to have a terrific vacation and HIGHLY recommend this exact condo!!! I would do it again in a heartbeat. Stuff will always come up!!
