Getaway with old friends

We joined a friend couple in Destin that we have been friends with for 40 years. They are our best friends and Godparents to our son. We moved from the midwest to the east 17 years ago, so we don’t see them regularly like we did when we lived next door. We have talked about getting together for a long time and we finally did it! The place we selected in Destin was absolutely perfect and we had a blast! What a beautiful place to reconnect with old friends! So much to do and, of course, some serious beach time on the cool to the touch sandy beaches. Our vacation was a 10 for sure! Planning for next years trip with our friends already!!!

#518 Holiday Surf and Racquet Club

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: #518 was our home away from home for 5 days-enjoyed every minute of it. The condo included every amenity you would need - the kitchen has a new water purifier that we used daily to fill our water bottles, beautiful quartz counter tops, custom dry bar with wine cooler and every type of needed bar ware, very comfortable king size mattress in the master bedroom, bar height table and chairs on the balcony to comfortably view the beach, read a book, have a drink. Highly recommend. #518 very clean-will book again. The HSRC staff was very helpful with all of our questions/concerns about our stay.

Great vacation!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stayed here with our 18 and 20 yr old sons- first time visiting Destin. The unit was very clean and spacious - private washer/dryer access was fantastic. Beds were super comfortable - not something I usually say about rental properties! Location and amenities of the property were amazing - it is literally steps from the pristine beach. We loved the free pickleball/tennis courts, shuffleboard, and beach service (chairs and umbrella) as well as many, many activities to do in the immediate area (highly recommend Boogie's parasailing!). We wished we had stayed longer!

Was not the same unit as listed

Overall our stay was OK however we were put into a completely different unit which did not have two king beds (which we specifically booked and paid for). The unit we were given had only one king bed and the other bedroom only had a queen and a twin. Also, the dishwasher in the unit we were in didn't wash properly and the heater/ furnace was very loud. Beach was amazing and loved the location.
