My two daughters, grandson, and I spent a relaxing week at this condo. This super clean condo is located in a smaller and more intimate complex. The pool is heated and well maintained although the loungers are super uncomfortable since made with some type of hard plastic.
My grandson enjoyed the day he spent in the pool. We also appreciated the gated security of the complex. The top floor corner unit afforded a wonderful view of the beach especially in the Master bedroom. It was also nice not having anyone above us. So the unit/complex was very quiet. The kitchen is well appointed with everything you need to cook in. With COVID, we always cook our meals. The photos show a more spacious condo, but it currently has more furniture than necessary plus HUGE TV screens that really detract from over-all space in the living room plus gave it a very crowded feel. The beds are very comfortable. It was nice to have a queen and full-size beds rather than twins in the second bedroom. The leather living room couch and loveseat plus recliner are also super comfy. All other furnishings are old and outdated and could use update. For the high cost per night that we paid, we thought it was really cheesy for the owner not to provide beach chairs. The beach concession charges an exorbitant amount per week for two chairs and umbrella. As an super-host on a different rental platform, I provide my guests with everything possible that I myself would want. It's been years since last visit to Destin and I must say it has changed quite a bit. It was annoying that the beach concessions put the chairs and umbrellas so close to the water' s edge that made it impossible to walk on the beach in some areas. Also, one cannot bring their own beach chair unless it was behind the concession provided loungers and umbrellas. Therefore, we found it a lot nicer to spend the day at Henderson Beach State Park where we could setup wherever we wanted. Even though the crystal clear water and soft white sand is one of the most beautiful beaches I've experienced, Destin has lost its allure due to the heavy commercialization. We recommend this condo based on the location, cleanliness, kitchen appointments, privacy and bed comfort.
