Thank you for staying with us in SouthBay!!!! We love watching the wildlife in the lake. Being so close to the Gulf of Mexico is an absolute dream. I hope you were able to visit any one of our great restaurants or the fantastic shopping. Until next time. The beach will be waiting for you.

Great stay!

Condo was clean, beds were exceptionally comfortable, location was great. Just a 3 min walk to the beach. All furniture and appliances were in good condition and functioned properly. We loved watching the turtle and ducks from our balconies. Restaurants, shopping, icecream all within walking distance. Our only complaint is that the upstairs (kitchen/living room) was a little stuffy and not as cool as downstairs (bedrooms). We would stay here again.

Super location

Great location in the heart of it all. Loved the smaller scale as we had more privacy on the beach than some of the mega complexes. House had everything we needed.

Destin Bayview- short walk to beach

Booking and check in smooth process. All codes for facility access were correct, emailed 24-48 hrs in advance. Only concern was the parking pass was emailed 24 hrs prior to arrival. We were on the road with no way to print. Beautiful white sand beach about 1 block walk thru the complex. We were lucky enough to see multiple dolphins swimming by while on the beach! Condo sq footage stated is correct, wide angle pictures look larger. The condo use is aparent. The kitchen window does not close. Upper level patio screen is torn, and does not stay on the track, so it is difficult to keep gnats/bugs out if glass door open. Wear and tear normal throughout. There was no patio table,only 4 chairs on upper level, none on lower level. Gazebo pictured is boarded up without access due to unsafe walkway. Photo should be removed. There are lots of turtles, fish and foul that are visible from the balconies. We enjoyed watching them.
