Great location for a family trip and a quick walk across the road to the public beach access. Although, not super clean and did not have some of the necessary items to stay at this place (i.e. parking pass), overall was a great stay and good location. One thing though, my mother and father stayed right upstairs and was 10x as nice and clean. Would likely stay at this place again!
The property was just as described! Literally across the street from the beach, and when it got too hot, the pool with shaded areas was just right! We will be back for sure!!

Very nice location and condo is in good shape, though a new mattress and vacuum would be welcome. Property managers are great to work with and very helpful, considerate and accommodating. Highly recommend this property.

Reviewer Comments:
Very nice unit located on Scenic HWY 98 with cross street access to the beach. Property is well maintained and Manager is accessible. Easily sleeps 6 as bunk beds are a great added touch. Location provides a nice walking area and is close to some retail and churches. A new mattress and vacuum cleaner would be a good addition.
Cable company were changing out boxes in the Condos and it would have been nice to have been informed about that before hand. Drains in bathroom sink and tub did not drain well at all. Beach chairs were old and rusty and needs to be replaced.
Location was perfect and overall the stay was ok.

Great condo located on old scenic highway 98 with views to the ocean on the left and right. Perfect place for our 5 person family. Unit comes with beach equipment, toys, umbrellas, chairs, etc. the unit is on the second floor and is in front of the pool. Access to the unit is in the back parking lot and there is no elevator, just stairs. Unit was clean and did the job as the majority of our time was exploring and being at the beach.
Very clean unit and owner is very responsive I will come back again.

Reviewer Comments:
We have stayed in this area for 13 years now. We love the location and Destin beaches. Room was great but the tv in bedroom was small. Room was clean and would stay here again.
We had a great time!!
The beach is across the street, the supermarket is 2 minutes away..
Having a washer machine and dryer is so convenient..
We are definitely coming back.
Super place with easy access to the beach. Condo is in good condition and had a small need for maintenance and property company responded quickly and fixed the trouble immediate (shower drain).
Will be visiting next year & booking here.
We really enjoyed our stay! Even though the beach was across the street, it was still easily accessible and just a short walk. The ocean water was the clearest that I have ever seen and the sand was so soft and fluffy. The pool was clean and we didn’t have to share it with a ton of people. The condo was clean and had everything we needed. We will definitely be back for a return trip.
Our daughter got married on the Saturday of our stay. The rehearsal and wedding was at the beach directly across the street, so it was very useful to just be across the street for a few older family members to be able to wait until right before the wedding. It was a great place with beautiful views.
We have stayed in this condo before. It’s an easy walk to the beach. The only issue we had was the app didn’t update with the correct pool code so we were having to ask other guests for the code. The main bed is also really uncomfortable. The owners have made some nice updates with the other furniture in the room. I would suggest fixing the balcony door because it was hard for us to get it to work. We look forward to staying again!

Beach stay
The property was nice and a very short walk to the beach. The bedding was super comfortable especially after a long day on the beach. The convenience of the pool was wonderful. The only struggle was there was very limited cleaning amenities without purchasing your own. There was one trash bag provided in the kitchen and I did not want to purchase a case of trash bags. My other concern was the shower curtain was moldy. Over all the stay was fine.
