It’s just ok
The floors turned our socks black. If the mop in the closet was even used, it is a filthy mop. Disgusting. There is also mold in both bath tubs. We did not tell the staff tho bc we were already there. We didn’t want to have to wait for anyone to clean it bc we are in vacation. This unit does not participate in the amenity program so no beach chairs and umbrella unless you want to pay more money. do not h

The floors were absolutely disgusting. Feet were black from the moment we arrived and took socks and shoes off. The ice maker didn’t work for the first 2 days we were there. The internet was messed up. There were only minor inconveniences that made the stay less than 5/5…everything else was great.

Great Place with just a few cons
Overall wonderful experience. Bedding only included mattress cover no fitted sheet one sheet and a comforter. Did not like sleeping on mattress cover so only had one cover with no extras in the room. Trash dumpsters were inconvienent. Beach was easily accessible and clean. Pool was a good size and very clean as well. AC unit extremely loud and all bathroom fans turned on with light so very loud all the time in the bathroom.

Poorly kept property
Floors were dirty upon arrival. Used towel in closet. Provided bedding had the feel of prison sheets and blankets. Beds were poorly made with said ill-fitted sheets. We have stayed with HSRC for over 30 years, and VRBO was the worst service by far. Also, you do not get complimentary chair/umbrella (beach service), which is not made clear. We had to pay an extra $250 for that to be able to sit with family. The best part was the beach. And the kitchen has a good knife selection.

Love it!!
We had a great time! Loved the place. Close to the beach. Pool was awesome! Only problem was the laundry facilities. 4/6 washing machines were broken and our did not drain all the water. Many of the dryers were out of order too. And there was no laundry soap in the dispenser. Everything else was great. Front office staff was very nice. Will definitely come again!!

Great trip and clean condo.
The Unit was very clean and just as pictured. We loved sitting on the balcony at night and listening to the waves. The only thing I wish it had was a washer and dryer because we had to take wet clothes home. Also, with beach service everyday you have to put your own tag on a chair. I wish they just assigned you for the week, so you didn’t have to get up early to get your tag on a good seat. Overall, a great experience and we plan to return!

Everything was wonderful! Nice clean place! People were very friendly. Only thing is you have to pay $50 a day to have two chairs and umbrella on the beach. Not all units have to but this one you have to pay. Dishwasher was also full when we got there. Other then that everything is great!

Perfect getaway
My mom and I went for a mother/daughter trip. The condo was exactly as described. It was clean and comfortable with an amazing view. It’s a short walk to the beach. And the beach is glorious. The unit did have two beach chairs but I believe they were left behind by other guests. I don’t think they come with unit. We didn’t see them until day 2 so we had already paid the condo to rent chairs and an umbrella for one day. I would absolutely come back here. Three days on the beach was amazing. And this section of beach is private to condo goers so not too busy.

Love Destin! Condo as pictured.
Our family of 4 had a great trip and would definitely go back. This unit isn’t necessarily worth the cost, but I think that is just the price you pay to come to Destin and for the view. The beach is amazing and water is so clear and calm compared to the Atlantic so it’s less stressful when you have kids. This unit looked exactly like what was advertised and was clean. Kitchen and bathrooms were outdated, but you can see that in the pics. Any questions we asked were all quickly answered by the property owners and the checkin process was very easy. View off balcony is great and walk to beach is short. Pool was pretty crowded since on smaller side but clean. We didn’t have any problems with the bathrooms in the unit like previous reviews had stated. The master bed was on the firm side, and I do agree with a prior review that the fan in bathrooms are on the louder side. I would recommend the owner add some night lights to the bathrooms so you don’t have to turn fan/light combo on in middle of night and wake other person. Also, some tips for others to prepare for their trip: bring ground coffee and filters since none provided - it’s not a keurig. There aren’t beach chairs or beach towels provided. Housekeeping services not provided during your stay. If you fly in, I would highly recommend a car rental bc Uber/Lyft/Taxi services are almost impossible to find from the airport or if you need to get to take you around Destin. Also, this unit is not really walking distance to any restaurants or grocery stores. Amazon food will not deliver groceries to this location, and it is very hard to find places to deliver pizza. We were able to get a Lyft to take us to grocery store very early in morning for $12 one way to go 2 miles, but you have to be very patient while trying to find one to take you back to the unit. Overall, we really did have a great trip. Destin is perfect for a family vacation, and we will be back next year!
