We are so glad we chose to stay at The Islander. This was our first trip to Destin and first time at The Islander. I did a ton of research & couldn't have picked a better place. This unit was amazing - pristine clean, beautifully updated and had all the extras we needed. The views were amazing as well. Some things we really appreciated that weren't mentioned in the resort descriptions: They sell bags of ice at the front desk for $3. This was SO convenient! We were in Destin for our son's world series baseball tourney, so it came in handy for coolers but also was great for heading to the beach. We had a blender in our room and even tupperware bowls with lids - also great for packing snacks for the beach. There was a yoga mat and two small beach chairs. Plenty of towels and even a lounge chair on the balcony (along with a table and chairs). They had nice railings on the sides of the balcony which was great for hanging towels to dry, without making the place look trashy. We loved these little thoughtful things that made the unit even more functional. There were a couple of board games in the unit as well and plenty of bed linens. Everything was so great, staff was super friendly and our kids loved all the amenities - pools, tennis/basketball and we had so much fun playing shuffleboard. The gazebo/pavilion with grills was also beautiful - we hung out here with friends one night & they let our friends park in the lot when they came for dinner, no problem. Loved this location in Destin, it was convenient to everything including a Target across the street and the Mexican restaurant, La Paz, just down from the condo was good too. The beach chair service that was included was also so nice! If you want the front row closest to the water you'll need to get to the beach early in the morning but otherwise, we loved that you could show up any time of day and there were always chairs available. We will absolutely be back!Thank you for everything!
