This unit is VERY nice and roomy! The wrap around balcony gave us an excellent view of the sound and the sunrise.All of the amenities and rooms were up to date. In fact, it was like staying in a newly built condo. The host is very responsive and was very helpful with suggestions on where to keep my boat and other local information we needed. I will definitely stay in this unit again!

This place has it all.... Big

Property was amazing! So much room for our group and everyone had beds. Loved the wrap around deck with views (we saw pods of dolphins and stingrays off the balcony!). Easy and convenient walk to the beach. Can't beat the lazy river. Highly recommend if you rent a boat/pontoon the docks next door are a quick walk over less than 5 min and easy to bring stuff with you. Plenty of kitchen supplies and ice trays. Beach Cart chairs if you need in a closet. Place was amazingly clean. Easy to get ahold of host and he communicated promptly. If we come back to Destin I would book this place again in a heart beat! Thanks Joe!

Amazing resort

We had a few issues but the owner was incredibly responsive and repaired the issues as soon as possible. The resort had great amenities that were well taken care of and easy to access. Despite having to leave early due to hurricane threat, it was an amazing vacation and the condo offered great space for my family and a stunning view.

Great Spring Break

Enjoyed this property very much. It was windy during our stay so the porch was a little on the chilly side. Beds were nice as well as the view. Only gripe was with the pots and pans. We cook a lot even on vacation and the nonstick was not up to our cooking/health standards. Joe was a great host!!

What a beautiful Condo with a great host.

I’m not so good at these reviews but Joe was so kind and on top of everything I have to give this my best shot. The condo has a very beautiful view from the large patio. The patio alone is another living space. The rooms are plenty large and the master suite is the best of them all with a large room and even larger bath suite. This is a great location because you’re just a few minutes from crab island and all the rentals but not in the middle of it all. Pools and lazy river are a big hit with the kids and teens. Beach is a short walk over the sky bridge. Plenty of room to grab a spot and enjoy the white sand. I’m looking forward to returning asap.

Office Girls Trip 2023

Annual Office Trip for 2023 included 6 of us. Despite the fact that it rained the entire trip we made the best of it by shopping the nearby outlet stores and getting in the beautiful lazy river when the sky cleared well enough and we ate well at the nearby restaurants. The stay here was absolutely perfect with a magnificent view all the way around and the home was as nice inside as the view outside. Highly recommended !!

Family Vacation

A group of 10 of us stayed and have no complaints. The view from the balcony overlooking the bay is fantastic. Plenty of room for everyone inside the condo. The kids really enjoyed looking at fish/crabs in the bay. The property is amazing plenty of pools and a awesome lazy river. This was our first trip to the gulf coast and the beach was definitely what we had hoped it to be. Joe checked on us during our stay and was very easy to communicate with.

Spacious and Everything We Needed

Heron 403 is a very spacious condo with a wonderful wrap-around veranda over looking the bay and the pool area. The well stocked "beach supply closet" had everything we needed for a day trip to the less crowded bayside beach on Okaloosa Island. This unit is set up to sleep multiple families comfortably to share some quality time together.

Enjoyed the stay!

We enjoyed the stay. The lazy river was so much fun. The beach was a good ways away but easy to get to and like no other beaches !! So beautiful. The view from the balcony and watching planes land on the water was cool. Very clean. Very responsive with communication. Easy check in. Loved that!! The mattress need to be replaced and upgraded. Last suggestion : Some darkening curtains in the smaller bedroom would block lights from the exterior hallway/walkway. Would stay again!!❤️
