Beautiful week! Celebrating our 50th wedding anniversary so it was actually a beautiful week!
Pros:

Destin is a beautiful place. Enjoyed the closed proximity of stores restaurants etc. I loved the ocean colors and spent a lot of time watching that. Happy with covered garage. The facilities of the condo were everything we needed and more. I would have preferred a condo with more of an ocean room .

Cons:

We were supposed to be notified with code to get into condo morning of arrival. Had to call property manager Who did respond. Difficulty finding place. Would have liked a better explanation. The word Jetty was never mentioned. We eventually found it by accident

Everything you need in the whole apartment . Very clean . The ocean is very close . 100 feet from the elevator. You see boats all day from the marina . Calm waters .

A perfect blend for a relaxing visit.
Pros:

This fabulous condo on the beach has everything you need to enjoy a staycation meal or a walk to the beach/pool. The restaurants, the harbor, and Destin Commons are a few minutes away. Nothing is better than having a great meal and then, in a 5-minute drive, being back at the condo in your pajamas or taking a dip in the pool. The king-sized bed is extra firm, but it was not an issue. We brought our pillows because we always do. The condo has no ocean view, but we knew that when we booked. We highly recommend this property and hope you have a wonderful stay in Destin, Florida!

Made the best of it
Pros:

Location. Was on the beach

Cons:

Bed was super hard and we booked for a beachfront with a view of the ocean and we got beachfront with a view of the garage. Tried to talk with everyone to see if I could get another room cause it was our anniversary and they said there was nothing they could do. Bed had our backs hurting the whole trip. Was glad to make it back home to our bed

Loved it.
Pros:

Close to the beach and all of our favorite eating places. everything we wanted to do was close by and easy to get to. The condo was well decorated with all the stuff we needed for a comfortable stay.

Cons:

we would like a better view of the beach from the balcony but we booked at the last minute so we didn't have many choices. the view was overlooking the parking lot and not disclosed in the description.

I really enjoyed the stay. Thanks to the owners
Pros:

The condo was clean and well decorated. The large tvs were much nicer than the usual condo tv. The facility is well kept all around. The pool is huge and clean and heated. The covered pavilion with the grills was my favorite. What a view!
