Great location, good price. Surprised it was available. The condo supplied the chair/umbrella service which is cool but a little close to the people next to you.

Great stay on the island!

The condo was very clean and equipped, comfortable bed, nice linens, and the location on the island was perfect. My favorite part was the beach set-up that came with the rental - a must have for all future trips. Will definitely be back!

Great Stay

Overall, no complaints. The room was clean upon arrival, great view of the beach! There are a few minor cosmetic defects and the pillows could be better but nothing that would hold us back from booking again.

Wonderful 32nd Anniversary at Island Echos

My Husband and I just spent a wonderful week celebrating our 32nd Wedding Anniversary at Island Echos. This was our 1st stay and we were not disappointed. The condo was fresh and clean and had everything you could possibly want or need. Access to everything from entrance and exiting the property, parking, quietness, beach access, staff, even the guests were extremely wonderful. The weather was gorgeous. A perfect vacation! The location was a plus as well. Close to all our favorite places to eat and shop. Would highly recommend.

The room was dirty, bed was broken, outlets didn’t work and the air conditioner smelt like rotten eggs. Will not stay there again.

Needs a little TLC

Property could use a little TLC. Cleaners need to be more thorough. Kitchen needs to have basics added, cutting board, sharper knives (probably dull from cutting on granite), bed could be updated, couch needs replacing, very uncomfortable! We also never had WIFI, apparently just changed providers. Office was no help and spent many calls with provider to try and trouble shoot. No result. Other then those items, great location, great view, nice beach. We will be back, but probably do different property if a few of the minor upgrades are not done.

Great place to stay!

Loved the set up of this condo. Could enjoy the ocean view from the kitchen. Home had everything you needed for a great time. We stay in this condo again. Condo close to 3 great restaurants, Old Bay Steamer, Stewby's Shanty, and AJ's Shanty.

Needs updating

I have never left a VRBO review before now. My stays are usually great. We were disappointed in this unit. It is dated, needs a new coat of paint, and overall just looked old. The AC was loud and we discovered ants in the bathroom. No beach towels were provided and the master closet was full of items such as unused tile.

Anytime I had a question their response via text was almost immediate. We will be staying here every chance we get. Our honeymoon couldn’t have been more memorable. The 5th floor view was spectacular!

Beautiful View

This condo had an absolute beautiful view. The condo was clean and cool. We had everything we needed in terms of: linens, blankets, pillows and kitchen necessities. We were able to go down to the beach and utilize the beach service which included the two chairs and umbrella. If there was anything I’d have to recommend it would be a working box fan……which is a very minor thing. We only wanted it for the noise. There was one in the closet but it didn’t work. Not a big deal, just a preference. We didn’t have any major problems with anything in the condo and absolutely loved it. We’re hoping to rent again on our next trip.

Never Again. I Paid That Much for This??

Pro's: The view. Stocked kitchen. Easy to find. Con's: *Bathtub wouldn't drain properly, so you had a bath and shower in one. It was slick, had a dirty rim, mold around the tub, and had sand when I took my first shower from where it wasn't cleaned after the last guest. It had poor water pressure and the water didn't get hot. I made the front desk aware of the issues and they draino-ed the tub, but it never got cleaned. They told me it wasn't a priority. But hey, they brought more towels (that had black stains on them)! There's no vent or light near the tub, so you showered in the dark and with the door open so the bathroom didn't retain any moisture. *Baseboards- Disgusting. Especially in the bathroom. *Floors- Still sandy and not well cleaned. The bottom of my feet turned brown from walking around in the room. *Patio door- Extremely stiff and made me feel like I wasn't going to be able to get back in. *Bed- So firm that whatever side I was on went numb and tingling, waking me up from my sleep. I had to roll over, and then it happened on that side. The pillows were HUGE. Like, 8 inches thick and didn't flatten out. So I had to sleep without a pillow. There are also no extra blankets; you get a sheet and a very thin quilt. Worst sleep I've ever gotten on a vacation. Furniture- The starfish picture and the glass on top of the coffee table were broken (which is a safety hazard if you have kids). It made me nervous coming into a condo with broken things, in fear I would get charged for them. The light fixture in the living area had 1/3 bulbs that worked, so it was dark in there. Safety- There were workers and other people in the parking lot smoking weed. I'm ex-LEO, so I know what that smell is. The entry gate was left open on our first night, which is probably how they were letting these people in. It's nerve-racking when 2 girls are alone in the parking lot walking back to their room, while a group of guys are doing drugs and staring at us the whole time, seeing what room we walked into. *Noise- Walls are thin and the bedroom is by the door/hallway. You hear everything. We were very unsettled the whole time we were there. We need a vacation from our vacation. Which is very sad, because we LOVE the Destin area and go 1-2 times a year and stay in a different condo each time, according to availability. But never again will we book this condo or this building. I'm very disappointed to have paid that much for a motel 6 type of place.

Excellent location and view

Great location and view, nice facility and condo, and the umbrella and 2 chairs was a huge plus (get there early early to reserve your spot!). We had 4 people in the condo but I'd say this would be best for 2! The condo lacked a few things we expected it to have, such as coffee filters, a spatula, frying pan, and an oven mit/pad to name a few things. The A/C is LOUD when it clicks on so much so that it would wake us up at night. Also the wifi only works in the bedroom. Otherwise this really was a perfect facility, location, and the view was WONDERFUL!

Quiet location

Great place to stay. Quiet location, but still close to lots of retail and restaurants. The only reasons I didn’t give 5 stars are that there’s carpet (which is not ideal for a beach condo), and the wifi didn’t work on the balcony. But this was a clean, nice place to stay. We’d stay there again.

Perfect for Two

The views and beach at this condo are fabulous! We watched sea life, sunrises, and sunsets from the balcony. We came to this condo building last year and liked it so much I made sure to come back this year, it's very convenient and low-key. This condo is cozy and quaint. It's the perfect size for two people and was what we expected.
