"This place was amazing. Quick walk to the beach. But free shuttle provided too if you didn't want to take the quick 2 min walk. Unit was impeccably clean. Every amenity you could need in the kitchen. Beautifully decorated. Much bigger than what the pictures portrayed. Very spacious. Nice size balcony. Comfy furniture. Such an amazing cozy beachy feel. Easy in and out. The owner emailed easy to follow instructions to get in. Pools are so cute and well-kept. Main pool has a bar with drinks and food.And in bathrooms accessible from the beach. Beach is beautiful. Everything you could have ever wanted. Highly recommend. Quick 9 minute drive to downtown Miramar and 12 minutes from Destin. Very safe and secure gated location also.Definitely would rent this unit again. Really nice experience!"

"We had a great time! Condo is basic. But that’s all you need. Not long walk to beach and pools were nice. Would for sure come again."
Stayed April 2022
"Everything was awesome. Absolutely perfect for a family with two kids. I didn’t have an issue with anything just wish we would have come when it was warmer. I promised my kids we’d come back and I plan to look for this unit.
Hot water does run out so if you have teenagers who like long showers be ready to wait. The walk to the beach isn’t bad at all. There’s a little bar at the pool on the beach.
There’s soooooo much nearby, especially if you like shopping. There are two outlet type malls within like two minutes but if you head down to Destin there is another one with a bomb Mexican restaurant. “Baytown” I believe it’s called has zip lining and souvenir shops and restaurants. The guards will give you a pass and not explain much. I’d go around 5. Walk a bit then have dinner. There’s a fat Tuesday’s. Overall we had a great time."

"Great beach oasis! - Everything was beautiful. We did not want to leave. Will definitely book more days next time. The evening gate keeper was so nice and helpful. It was wonderful to be greeted by a smile coming and leaving the resort.
We went to the bistro at the fitness center and was treated rudely by the hostess. She made it clear that we had to take our food to go and we were not welcomed there."

"OMG it was absolutely gorgeous. The apartment was just like the pictures and the walk wasn’t bad to the beach. Water was - There are no comments available for this review"
Stayed July 2021
"I initially didn't realize there was a manned gate for entry and passed it several times, but the guard was very kind and extremely helpful. Upon entry to the unit, we were greeted by a cool air atmosphere and vibrant music. The unit was larger than it appeared in pictures. We appreciated the cute towel folds in the kitchen containing the dish detergent samples and in the bathroom containing the personal care products. We spent our first evening playing one of the board games housed in the cabinet beneath the television in the living room. Even though there were a few brief stalls with the internet, we were able to access what we needed on all of our 6 devices.
With the exception of the pool, we weren't sure whether we were allowed to use the other amenities on the property like mini-golf, but the beach was easy to access within 4-5 minutes. (Bring your own beach chairs and accessories. )
I would contract this unit again, but plan better to purchase my snacks and groceries on my way in so that when we were settled we wouldn't need to leave or order out for food.
We had a great experience. I would totally recommend this space."

"Nice , clean and friendly. My family enjoyed the stay.
Please note there is no gym or sauna. Also, you can’t participate in the club activities on the property if you rent from air b n b. Being your own cleaning supplies ."

Hi Vanessa, thank you for your review! We are happy to hear you found the unit clean and your family enjoyed your stay! Thank you again for your feedback and thank you for staying with Real Joy!
Stayed June 2021
"We loved our stay. I was a little nervous about checking in - they will not send you check in details until 2 hours before check in unless you contact them and I was not told ahead of time that is how it would be. Sometimes they are slow to respond. But, I got all the information I needed in plenty of time. The walk down to the beach wasn't terrible, but I think we will chose something closer next time. If you don't mind walking for a few minutes to get down to the beach, this will be a good place. The condo was perfect for a family of 4. It was clean, roomy and equipped with everything we needed. Other than the walk, here are my only complaints. I felt like it was a little pricey for the lack of amenities (it's on a resort, but you can't use their fitness center or anything other than the pool and spa - which we really didn't use but for a few minutes) and the master bathtub plug wouldn't stay open. I had to use my razor to get the water to drain haha! But, we still loved it! The washer and dryer in the unit were a huge plus for me! All-in-all, I would recommend it for sure."

"Perfect getaway - We booked this at the last-minute for spring break. Although we didn’t have an ocean view, we enjoyed the tropical view with gorgeous landscape. The wind made a soft rustling noise of the palms and was very relaxing to hear and see.
The entire condo is furnished beautifully in soothing colors and comfortable beds and furniture. It contained everything we needed to prepare meals from home as well. The Ocean Club restaurant near the front entrance was a true treat! It featured an elegant atmosphere and delicious food. Get there between 5-6pm for two-for-one dinner specials. We also truly enjoyed the ocean-front grill by the pool. My friend said the shrimp and cheese quesadilla was the best she’s ever had!
Our teens enjoyed the many amenities of the property. We brought our own basketball, golf clubs and balls, they also rode bikes and played volleyball. There’s so much to do! The beach is simply the best part of this location. The powder-soft sand and clear water is some of the most beautiful you’ll experience in the entire world."

"Great property - The condo unit was nice and would stay there again but could give some instructions. All 3 TV's had 3 controllers to work them. Finally got two of them to work and the one in the master bedroom never could get to work. If you gave instructions how to use the TV that would be very helpful.
Also, could not get the dish washer to turn on so did dishes by hand. The master bedroom lamp shade was falling apart and there was a large medal ring of some sort on the master bedroom bed when we arrived which I placed that it the closet. The closet in the master bedroom is hard to open. Does not want to move on the track. And when removed the covers for bed there was a brown something possible a bug in the bed that was smashed. So I hoped the sheets had been changed? Took a picture if you want to see it. And the drain in the master bathroom drains very slow, you are up with water over your ankles before you complete your shower. Otherwise it was a great condo, a map of the property would of helped. Also, we got a text after we already had checked out to move the patio furniture inside because of the hurricane coming, so hopeful house keeping took care of that. Thank you for the use of the condo. Prayers going your way because of the hurricane."

"A Perfect Week!! - We visited through March 25 to April 1st. We've always come to the Destin area but never this particular resort property. We will now always choose Tops'l first for every visit. Very cute property, very secluded you hardly see other families. Lovely beach with chairs half the cost of the more busier beaches. Only thing I could consider improving is the lack of signs posted and more walk ways to utilize. Oh, and please heat the pools next time? ♡ (could explain why we never really saw other vacationers during our stay, we felt like royalty)"
