The apartment was very nice, but there was sand in the bed in the bedroom connected to the balcony.

We had a few issues, but we took care of most of them ourselves. The condo is decorated lovely and very comfortable. Everything in the kitchen was very organized. The WiFi was out because there was no power cord for the router, but we needed an electronics break anyway. The condo had an odor, like it had been mopped with a sour mop. We got some sprays and an air fresher, problem solved.

My family and I had a wonderful stay. We enjoyed the short walk to the beach, the pool and the great view. The only issue we had was one of the bed frames was cracked. We noticed when we first got there and they addressed it right away, but it was more of a quick fix. It might be something they can give better attention to or replace once we left. Overall, we have no complaints!

Overall this property gets a 5 star rating due to the view and access to the beach Pictures are true representation Balcony is great-awesome ocean view with several dolphin sightings. Can’t actually see the sunrise and sunset without walking out to the beachGreat building security and easy access to beach Kitchen layout great-lots of counter space Grills in good shape and working orderManagement company-very responsive about a small kitchen sink leakSome things that could use improvement, but did not warrant a lower rating:No extra blankets for bedsNo throw blankets for cool mornings and nights on balconyOnly one blow dryer for two bathrooms Guest bedroom bed not comfortable Wish the deck had a small table with higher chairs to see over railingCondiments-they don’t even have salt and pepperWould definitely stay here again

This place was perfect for our family. There is plenty of room to chill on the balcony, in the living room, and bedrooms. The kitchen is well stocked, which is a big plus since we cook at night to save money. The beach area is great and not crowded at all, and the pool was refreshing after being n the salt water all day. It is a very secure location and a code is required to get in and out of all the gates and doors, even to the pool and beach area. This will be the place we return to if they have availability next year when we choose our dates.

Wonderful condo with an awesome view!
We had such a wonderful stay!! The condo was clean, spacious, and welcoming. I loved the large deck and it had the best view of the ocean. We loved the smaller size of the complex. It was quiet and the pool was never too busy. The beach wasn't crowded at all where the beach service set up our chairs. It was in a great location to get to any restaurants or activities. We all agreed we would come back! Cant wait for our next visit!

It was beautiful and comfortable! Just like the picture. I was very pleased with the to bedroom plus the bunk bed In the bedrooms. If you have kids that’s a plus. It is beach front. Spectacular views. It has a pool. It has grills you can cook on down close to the pool. Close access to the beach. Private beach access so that’s a plus too! Just a great location. Great for family!! Will come back ! We loved it

Perfect!
My family and I stayed in this condo this past week. The condo was clean, spacious yet cozy, and the views were amazing. Checking in and out was easy. Pool and hot tub were great. The beach was just steps away! Management was responsive to all of our questions. We would 100 % book here again. We loved it!

We so enjoyed our stay at Destin Towers 81. The condo was so nice... it was clean and the accommodations were perfect . The pots, pans and dishes made it nice for an evening in . Beach front and in a central location for easy access to many of the favorite restaurants in the area as well. My favorite was the balcony overlooking the ocean. Just beautiful! Thank you for being so hospitable and for the ease in which we were able to reserve our unit. I would highly recommend and we will be returning.
