"Great resort! - Loved this place. The bed in the 2nd bedroom is not the most comfortable but it was still an enjoyable stay. Plenty of room for all of us. Really enjoyed the resort. The restaurant onsite was awesome and the pool was the highlight for all of us. "

"It was great, but a few things missing. - The place was nice, but it would have been nice to have more cooking utensils. The little amount that was there was very worn out. Same with pans. They were all scratched up and could use an update for things to cook with. Would also have been nice to have usb plug ins. But overall a nice stay clean stay."

"We had a lovely stay! The space comfortably hosted 4 adults and 2 toddlers. The room itself looked exactly like the photos. The location is close to nearly everything. There are plenty of meal options for any time of the day - the on-site restaurant makes a great candied bacon burger. The pool area was also a nice experience. They had a lot of kid friendly activities through out the day. The place made for a great family vacation. It’s a 3 minute drive to the beach (Henderson Beach State Park). There is a water park near by as well as a large arcade. We would definitely stay here again if we were to come back to Destin."

"Great place! - We enjoyed our stay. Great property especially if you have kids. Our kids are ages 12, 10 and 7. The place was clean, quiet, and beds were comfortable. The resort has an amazing pool, heated pool, hot tub and splash pad with pool deck lawn games. There is also a bistro on site that makes it easy to grab some food after a long day at the beach. The property is centrally located in Destin. Close to the best beach, Henderson, and right next to Walmart. Because the property is located on the north side of 98 you can use the back roads to avoid 98 when traffic is heavy. This is our second stay at this resort and first in this particular unit. I would definitely book this property again."

"First Family Vacation - This was my first family vacation with my mother and sister and my 3 boys. It was amazing!
My mother, who is very particular, acknowledged the space was clean and she was very comfortable throughout the stay. We had everything we needed. The pull-out couch was a nice surprise, and my 3 boys were comfortable in the kid's room. The bathrooms were very spacious and clean. The kitchen was clean, although we didn't cook, but we had all the appliances at our disposal and we had plenty of storage.
The amenities were fantastic. We really enjoyed the pool area and restaurant and live music.
I would definitely book this space again.
Thanks!"

"Something for everyone! - We had a wonderful spring break even with the weather giving us rain and cooler temps at times. The resort had something for everyone! The pool was a hit especially with the kids! We played corn toss, pickle ball, tennis and basketball many times over! It was very family friendly. We walked to the beach nearby and also drove short distances to restaurants, the Okaloosa pier, shopping and the boardwalk areas to name a few. The condo was exactly as we expected, clean and easy to access. Thanks for the stay!"

"Great area to stay and a very quiet room. Storm doors were great for silencing out noise. Room was clean and clear of clutter. Kitchen fully equipped. Pool area is clean and well maintained. The whole resort is really pretty and feels fancy. Only thing I didn’t prefer was that the Beds were extra firm, and the pillows were very hard too. I Would recommend bringing your own pillows, and the master bed needs a mattress foam topper unless you prefer extra firm."

"Great place! - We had a great time. The resort was really nice. The only thing that I have negative to say is the restaurant manager was very rude. We went and bought something else for my 3 year old to eat and brought it back to the restaurant while us four other adult were ordering from there ($150 plus just for that meal, not including the food and drinks from the whole stay) The way he came over and told us it was not aloud was very unpleasant. He could have came about it a different way. I could understand if there were signs saying no outside food aloud. We apologized to the waitress and she said it was okay. She understood. Not to worry about it. Other than that, the stay was awesome."

"I’ll be back😊 - Great location. The landscaping was beautiful! The condo was very nice! I appreciated “The Last Supper” wall hanging. The pools were amazing!
It was clean but we did find a clump of hair on the balcony…like someone got a haircut. Then it had rained so it was stuck to the concrete, that was a little gross. We found a few beer bottle caps under the furniture but otherwise you could tell it had been cleaned so no harm. The pools were amazing however the hot tub was closed for several days so that was a bit disappointing."
Stayed May 2021
"Great - The property is so nice! It’s got a nice restaurant, cute little coffee shop, and a bar! The pool is absolutely AMAZING and it stays open until 11! Love the valet as well!

"Loved it - The property was great. Very clean. Loved the porch and the lagoon. The shuttle was nice having to take us to the crap trap beach. Living porch door needed a little wd40 but that was it for the room and property.
Only thing to me that was misleading was the picture of the beach entrance was that it made it seem like we had our own area of the beach but according to the facility we didn’t."
