We stayed at the Leeward Key over the Thanksgiving holiday weekend. The condo tower is in a great location with beautiful views overlooking the beach. It's right on a great bike/pedestrian path that takes you to the outlet mall at one end and Henderson Park at the other. The beach area includes a heated pool, pool deck, beach showers, and bathrooms. While we loved the location, property, and condo, our experience with the rental service wasn't as great. We checked in the day before Thanksgiving. Unfortunately, I wasn't informed until the day before that the office and front desk would be closed that day. We had to pick up our condo info from a lock box outside the office. Our packet didn't include the correct gate codes to the beach or fitness center and also lacked parking passes. We were only given the bare minimum in supplies as well: only one full size trash bag, one packet of dishwasher detergent, one packet of laundry detergent, one paper towel roll, and two rolls of toilet paper for each bathroom. Also, it seemed like the cleaning service forgot to mop the kitchen floor because it was quite sandy. Despite all these little complaints, the good certainly outweighs the bad at Leeward Key.

This was the first time we had stayed in this area and we were very well pleased at what we found. My wife wants me to consider possibly coming again in May 2015 or maybe sooner. I don't think you could find a better view. Even though the condo is across the street from the beach, the walk is much less that what we have experienced in many condos that are on the beach.

I stayed here last year and loved it so much that I came here again in April! I've stayed on the 5th floor and the 10th floor. The view from the balcony is great. The unit is clean and beautiful. Eating places are in walking distance with one being right next door. I plan to come again each year.

Overall I enjoyed my stay at Leeward Key Condominiums. I did have trouble with the DVD player in my room and my condo could have used fresh paint. Small complaints but I enjoyed myself and felt very comfortable. I would recommend this place and plan to visit again.

Have stayed here before and will again.

Great location. Condo was updated, freshly painted, beautiful granite in kitchen, perfectly maintained.

Our family really enjoyed this condo. We have a 3 children ranging age from 18mos to 14 yrs, great location for family fun. The beach was beautiful from our room. Family friendly surroundings. We will definitely be back!

My family of 4 stayed a total of 4 nights 5 days and we were amazed at how nice it was. Everything was well kept, organized, and clean. The master suite was perfect. The view is amazing. I come to destin twice a year and I'll be staying here every single time I come.

We stayed at this property for three nights in August 13-16, 2012. The room was very nice and bed was very comfortable. The room had a views to the beach. The concierge was very helpful and recommended several restaurants that were reasonably priced and very good. The location is very good, right across from the beach. We enjoyed the area at night. Very easy to get around. The pool was also very nice. I highly recommend this hotel. It wasn't inexpensive but worth the price. Room Tip: We liked the room with balcony facing the beach - get this room we were in the 11th floor with great view to the beach from our balcony. All and all ROOM 1106 was fantastic...my kids loved it so much they ask if we can buy it.....U will love it, there is nothing negative I can say about it.

This is the tallest condo building along the stretch of beach and so the views from the rooms are spectacular. Check-in was a breeze (did this on the morning after arrival as we arrived after the office closed) and the unit was well furnished and clean. Staff were very attentive and friendly. There are two pools - one behind the building in the parking lot and the other beachside - this is a great amenity!

The Condo was very clean & modern. Both bedrooms & baths were very clean & comfortable. The living area had ample seating. We enjoyed every aspect of our stay. Pools clean. Very nice staff in the condo & on the beach. Will return soon!

We loved our condo at Leeward Key. It was beautifully decorated, very clean, had plenty of dishes, and was very quiet. The best part was the terrific view of the ocean from our balcony. Watching dolphins while eating breakfast is a great way to start your day. I would suggest requesting the 3rd floor or higher so you have a good view of the ocean (we were on the 5th floor). The elevators were super quick and very smooth. The only negative thing was that the mattress in our master bedroom was way too soft.

Our trip started very badly with my having to delay departure by 7 hours because of needing an emergency root canal. We finally got on the road and drove through pooring rain to reach Destin at 10pm. Due to the rain and darkness we had a time locating our hotel, but when we finally got there and I opened the door to our suite I put all my recent troubles behind and simply smiled. We were so very pleased! The rooms were awesome; roomy and comfortable with cozy beds and 2 bathrooms with a large kitchen area and a private balcony overlooking the most beautiful beach view that I have ever seen! (Of course we didn't actually see the view until the next morning when the rain let up...LOL! but it was great!) The hotel is not directly on the beach, but you merely have to walk across the road to a gated entrance in order to reach white sands and clear emerald green waters. We enjoyed every minute of our stay. Thank you Hotels.com!
