"Perfect in every sense! - We loved the condo, and the location was great. RealJoy was seamless with the experience - good proactive communications along the way and the door code arrived as expected. Some reviews commented about the palm trees obstructing the view, but the branches were cut way back when we were there, so they weren’t even really noticeable. Great view!!"

The unit we stayed it was clean and bright and offered us everything we needed for a wonderful time together. The management company was so helpful and accommodating too and we had no problems with the check in and check out process.
This unit was literally across the street from the beach and we had pretty view from the balcony to enjoy anytime we wanted. It made for some fun and memorable moments with my dad (who is getting on in age) so I am extremely greatful! Thank you!"

Parking was not a problem had permit passes . Oh and the very short distance to the beach, you could walk across the street and the beach was there. I will definitely be renting this property again.
Thank you so much for this lovely experience."

Stayed July 2017
"Very close to the beach! Comfortable and well maintained with no problems during our stay. - We were close to all the main shopping and public beaches with private parking and on site private private pool. The Kitchen had plenty of dishes and pots and pans but did lack- simple items like salt and pepper. Would recommend bringing extra items from home like soap and extra dishwasher tabs. Having your own washer and dryer was great-- would recommend bringing laundry products for small loads. There is a BBQ grill outside but with the cost of buying briquettes for maybe a one time use could not justify buying a bag. Enjoyed our stay and look forward to visiting Destin again."

"Great vacation!! - Was very happy with the condo unit, building and facilities. The unit is exactly as described, we had one of the best views of the ocean. We could even see the dolphins playing in the surf from the balcony. The balcony is awesome, double doors open up and give a nice ocean breeze and can hear the ocean. The place is very clean, bright and cheerful. My kids loved the bunk beds. The pool and hot tub is a great area to meet and visit with other families on vacation. We went during spring break and this is a very family friendly area for people with children, it was quiet at night with no loud parties going on. Nice safe area for those who enjoy walking or jogging. We plan on returning."
