Beautiful place to stay and very close to the beach. I only wished they had informed us that although the condo is pet friendly, the sand in Destin is not.

We had a fantastic stay at this Vrbo! The unit was very spacious and comfortably accommodated our group. Everything was spotless and well-maintained, which made it easy to relax right away. The pool area was great, clean, inviting, and never too crowded.One of the best parts was the location. It’s just a one-minute walk to a private beach on the Gulf, which made morning and evening trips incredibly convenient. The area was peaceful and quiet, perfect for a relaxing getaway.Overall, a clean, roomy, and well-located place, we would definitely stay here again!

The room was a great place to stay short walk to the beach and everything within just a few miles. The rooms were very clean. The downside is at we had chairs on the beach that came with the room and and the young man at the beach did not want to place our chairs out beachfront after we had given him a substantial tip and he promised to put our chairs in a good place but other than that, we had a great time. Good place to stay just be careful with the guys on the beach, they wasn’t very trustworthy.
