SB with family
We stayed in this exact unit about 10 years ago and we were excited to stay again with the convenience of it being on the ground level with young kids ages 1, 4, and 6. It was not clean, the pans still had eggs stuck on them, the doors were rotted on the porch and maintenance had to come fix those, the dryer takes about 5 rounds before your clothes are dry, one of the queen beds was so used it is permanently had a sinking spot visible just walking into the room. We couldn’t use the bunk beds because the mattresses were so thick they were equal to the guardrails so the kids would fall off onto the tile floor. The unit has alot of wear and tear to it and needs some TLC! The location is amazing, being on the corner floor unit with kids is so convenient, the pool and hot tub are so clean and with great friendly staff! Neighbors were super kind too. Overall an amazing trip, just wish the unit was better kept up with cleanliness and updates.

Vacation Stay
The unit is bright with end unit windows! And you can see the ocean inside and outside the unit. It was clean and comfortable. Could use a little refresh with paint on baseboards. Close to shopping, grocery stores etc. The maintenance person Randy was very helpful and attentive. Would stay there again for sure!!

Family vacation
The location with young children was perfect. The condition of the condo was another story. Not visibly clean, almost like a lick and a promise. The floors were DIRTY. Due to the fact that we paid full price and the August rates had dropped, the condo was not clean in many places. Dishes, under the sofa, the outside of the refrigerator, the waste baskets, placemats, these are just a few things to mention. The dryer took 4 times to restart to dry one load. Even though we did call maintenance and they promptly came out, didn't dry even the smallest load and with four kids it was a lot of tending to the dryer in the evenings. It was very disappointing. Housekeeping was poor but also maybe the owners need to know so they can hunt for a new cleaning crew. The location was amazing. You could see the ocean from the kitchen and from the patio which was great for coffee and drinks. The upper level was NOISY but they went to bed around the same hours. But you could hear them at 6am everyday with very heavy feet. We wouldn't stay here again as the pictures were fabulousand the actual property were very disappointing and our price was double plus what others in the condo complex paid. The pool was great though very hot due to the time of year but again LOCATION AND EASE WITH CHILDREN was perfect. THERE WERE NO BUGS though they sprayed during our stay. They did have beach toys on the side of the house but the patio furniture was very uncomfortable and rusted out.

Cute place, Great location
This first floor condo was perfectly located across the street from the beach access. The beds were comfortable and the outdoor covered patio was perfect for coffee in the morning. You will need to bring some basics like salt/pepper, paper towels and toilet paper.

Great Location!
The place was clean and appeared to be updated. It had all the amenities we desired for our vacation. But what was really fantastic was the location. Just a short walk and you are on the beach. This area of beach is not extremely busy, as compared to other areas, which was really nice. It is also not too far of a drive to restaurants, shopping, boardwalk, etc. If we come back to Destin area we will for sure look for this unit.

Good location!
Check in was easy. Parking is OK. House was great size for 5 people. Cleanliness of house was OK, but not great. Extra bedding was dirty. Have to rent chairs or pay to put your own chairs on the beach. Save the VRBO fees and book directly through Venture Found.
