Our stay in Destin was absolutely fantastic! Julie was a very responsive and wonderful host! The central location of the condo made this a perfect spot to do a quick get-away for a weekend. We loved being able to sit out on the balcony with our morning coffee and a bottle of wine at night. With direct and easy access to the beach, it was the perfect location.

We had an amazing stay! The location truly couldn’t be better, stunning ocean views right from the living room and balcony. Waking up to the sound of the waves every morning was the highlight of our trip. The condo itself was clean, well maintained, and exactly as described in the listing. The kitchen was fully stocked with everything we needed, and the beds were comfortable. We especially appreciated the thoughtful touches like the beach chairs/wagon and clear communication from Julie. The area felt safe and peaceful, yet was still close to restaurants and activities. Whether you’re looking to unwind or explore, this spot is perfect. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing beachfront getaway!

My wife and I had a terrific stay over a long weekend. I’ve stayed at many Airbnb’s and VRBOs over the years and Julie is as good as it gets as a host. The condo was exactly as advertised, and it felt brand new inside. The one thing that stood out to me about the condo, probably because it’s different than most, is how quiet it was. We never heard any noise from our neighbors. Granted it is not high season but it was still fairly crowded because it was the first weekend all the amenities were available. The tiki bar was convenient - they even had a waitress serving on the beach. We would definitely come back.

Julie was very responsive with a couple minor question/issues. We were pleased with the condo. We, despite the cooler temps, were able to take advantage of the beach & hot tubs and I was pleased to find chairs, wagon etc to facilitate the moving of stuff. Nice place!!

This was our first time to Destin. It was a great central location. There were two heated pools, two hot tubs a regular pool. The beach is amazing. Write out your back door the view from the 12th floor was amazing. We must’ve taken 50 pictures of the sunrise sunset and just the ocean in general. The bed was comfortable. I love a king size bed. We had our own bathroom clean well stocked. I do a lot of cooking and she had all the utensils that you need for cooking meals. I loved that the TV was easy to figure out just one remote that was amazing all in all I would come back.! JULIE was always responsive. Within five minutes. Five stars all around.
