Perfect for teenage boys. It was a bit of a walk to the beach 3-5 minutes within the condo community but fast food, grocery, shops all within walking distance (have to cross a 4 lane road with heavy traffic). A lot more beach stuff than other reviews. Dated chairs, wagon, rolling cooler. Kitchen had everything you could want. Was very clean.

Everything was beautiful

I looked at a lot of places for our week long stay in Destin and decided on this townhome. My family consisted of myself, my husband, my parents, 3 teenage girls and 2 younger girls and this rental provided enough space for us all to spread out. The townhome is older but well kept, and the beds were very comfortable. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook and the charcoal grill came in handy when feeding a lot of people. One thing to note is that there is no bathroom on the main floor. This was not an issue for us, but could be for those who can’t do steps. This unit overlooks one of the pools (non heated) so we were able to sit on the lower level deck and watch the kids swim. The pool is big and goes to 8 1/2 feet. Location wise, this set of townhomes is adjacent to the private beach, but this specific until is street facing at the front of the complex. We enjoyed being near the street for easy access to the stores/restaurants next door and having the pool directly out back. The 5-8 minute walk to the beach consists of walking across a beautiful bridge that is well lit at night, past the heated pool, and through a parking lot - all part of the same property. The beach wagon and chairs provided were very useful. All and all, it was perfect for what we needed at a great price. Would stay again.

Pros: The place was good. I recommend it. It was big and had a lot of household items. They were responsive and have a dedicated office to help when needed. We went in winter so we were glad that the heating worked well. Big washer and dryer and just overall, well-equipped. Location was good. Right on a main road with loads of places at a walkable distance. Cons: The walk to the private beach was long and the heated pool were on the other side of the community, which they don’t mention on the listing. The pull out couches were also incredibly uncomfortable. So the apartment really only had comfortable accommodations for 8 people sharing 4 beds.

We really enjoyed the location being a short walk from the beach (though a little further than we originally thought). The condo is nice and has a good amount of space, with the kitchen having a number of cooking pans, utensils, and dishware for our stay. The one issue we had was that it is stated that there is a heated pool, but they were not heating it at the time.

Clean, well equipped, and very roomy. About 8 minute walk to the beach from our unit (#11) without having to cross any streets. Pool was close by and our unit provided privacy and we weren't disturbed by any neighbors. Convenient location to stores, shops and restaurants. Would definitely recommend and visit again.
