The condo was in a good location. The pool and hot tube were nice. The fitness center was closed the entire week we were there. Also, this property doesn’t allow you to put up an umbrella on the beach. Your options are to pay for the $40/day beach chairs or have no umbrella. This isn’t listed anywhere on the listing. I wouldn’t stay here again.

The condo was fine as well as the building itself. Staff very nice. However, there were hidden costs we were not aware of. I was told it was in information sent, but when I found email it was buried in the amenities section.
With this particular condo, you have to pay for each person to use the beach and pool. It is NOT included in your rental. You pay $10 per person to receive a wrist band and you have to pay for a parking pass to park in lot of building of which you just paid for a weeks rental!! The HOA runs this building and therefore the extra costs. I believe that not all condos are like this as we talked with other people in building. We rented through Vacasa.
Also they advertise a fitness center - it was closed

A random person entered our unit prior to our 10 am departure. They used the exact code that we were given. Thankfully we had the chain lock on.

We booked this condo for a few nights as an early add-on before our vacation on 30A. The building and unit were clean and family friendly. The pool and beach setup was great for our kiddos (8 & 5). The unit is a bit dated, but the view and location more than make up for any shortcomings.

Our unit was as advertised, small, but nice. Staff was great. But Beach service was very expensive. I had to basically bribe the manager, with a more than 20% tip, to get on the front row. Now, this is ON TOP OF spending $320 on chairs!! AND, no one came by, ALL DAY, to check on us or see if we needed,anything. TERRIBLE BEACH SERVICE! And you CANNOT bring your own chairs to the water UNLESS you’ve purchased their chairs! Also, smoking isn’t allowed anywhere, EVEN THE BEACH! You are banished to the bus stop in front of the resort!
I won’t stay here again because of the above.

The location is great and our condo was clean and organized on the inside. The deck and deck furniture was not so clean. Looking down at the pool area from our deck, there were dark dirty areas around each table and the pool chairs. The deck and pool area could use a good power wash. Here is the worst thing, The listing instructed us to register our car with the HOA. Once I arrived at the HOA office, I was informed that I had to download an app in order to pay for pool and beach access and you are given a bracelet to identify the fact that you have paid. 10.00 per person. This was not in the listing at all. To make matters worse, don't forget that dang bracelet because you are treated like a criminal. If I have an active code to get through the gate, the bracelets should be irrelevant. Why is the very person who helped me at the HOA office insisting I wear a bracelet when she is the one who sold it to me in the first place. Ice was also a paid extra in this building. I come to Destin every year, I wont be back here where they charge extra for everything.

The condo was dirty. Hair on tub and toilet. Televisions did not have working remotes. I notified office they said maintenance would come and look at it but sadly never showed. This condo needs updating. Will never stay here again.

Room needs to be updated. This unit has very minimal kitchen essentials. Morning of checkout the cleaning staff were trying to come in at 8:15am. Biggest disappointment was being told we could not sit on the shoreline and watch my kids in water. We were told it’s property rules and we had to have rented chairs in the front to be able to sit in the sand by the water. There were no chairs to rent. We will not return.

Things done very well: keyless entry to condo, pool.and beach! Condo well stocked. King bed very comfortable.
Things not so good: condo had ceiling stains in master bath and porch. No one gave us the pool/beach code (took some time finding out after 5pm) or when it changed to a different code. Would definitely stay at this condo again.

This condo is less pricey then some of the neighbors because it's a little dated, but it has everything you need for a comfotable stay. If your OK with clean 80's-90's decor you'll be very happy. The location is excellent because all conveniences are very close. Most importantly, the view of the Gulf from the unit is breathtaking! Only gets better with immediate beach access. Strongly recomend!

Early March Stay
I loved that it was so close to the elevator. Furniture was clean and condo was cleaned very well. I like that in order to get to the pool you have to have a code. I also liked that in order to come off the beach you had to have a code to pass through. Security is often roaming around and checking on things. I felt very safe. The view from the balcony is breathtaking! The washer dryer combo really came in handy and both beds were comfortable. Loved that the master bathroom had a big jetted tub. Everything about this trip was great! I will definitely be coming back.

Beautiful view of the gulf
The condo was located directly on the beach with wonderful views of the gulf. It is somewhat dated and could use some updating. The kitchen could be better stocked with tools and necessities.

Good:
It is right on the gorgeous white sands beach. Nice to wake up, walk outside to the beach and swim. Outside rinse off area and pool are excellent.
Apartment is used, but clean and has all the amenities you need. Shop on the mainland before you arrive. The Walmart and grocery stores are packed with people.
Parking - easy and plentiful. FYI, undercover parking is for owners only. Outside parking is well lit and lots of spaces, so there is no hunting for a spot.
Check In and Check Out. Mostly online and easy to get your parking tag and wristbands.
