Beautiful setting but needs a deep clean

This was a nice condo but it was evident there is a lot of turn-over with the amount of wear and tear. Within 5 minutes of arrival, my kids socks were black. We went out and purchased a swiffer mop to clean the floors that night. Upon contacting management, they were swift to respond and offered to send someone back out to clean. This wasn’t a deal breaker for us but you could definitely tell the cleaning crew rushed and didn’t do a thorough job. Other than that, we had a great stay and more importantly, there were no bugs or pests.

Beautiful views

Great location. Great view of the ocean. Plenty of room for everyone. Shopping, dining, entertainment and grocery stores close. Never did get my check in info of the app but i emailed them and got what i needed. Beds and pillows not very comfortable. Lots of centipedes, but that could be from being right on the beach. Grill did not work but had all other items we needed for cooking and eating. Would stay here again! We loved it. Watched dolphins from the top bedroom window.

Beautiful Destin

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Beyond Blue was very helpful if I needed anything. This condo is really beautiful and we love just about everything about it. There's just a few small things that need updating. The TV in the living room is about to go out. The mattress in the master bedroom is not very comfortable. Other then that everything is fantastic.

overdue vacation

The property location was great. The beach and water were clean and beautiful. Townhouse was actually nicely redone vs the initial pictures. The issue we had was that we paid for the view and the sliding glass doors looking out to beach were not clean so the view was foggy. We ended up cleaning the sliding glass doors so we could see. The beds were very comfortable, tons of decorative pillows but only one pillow to sleep on per person. No extras. Kitchen was equipped however the nonstick pots/pans were so scratched and not really usable, should be replaced. Overall, nice place.

Nice stay!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall it was a good experience but there are a few things that would help make it a bit more comfortable. The sliding glass doors were nearly impossible to open, and there were way too many huge pillows in one of the downstairs bedrooms causing little room for our luggage. The property mgmt company was excellent. We called them about a couple of issues and they were very quick to respond and to send someone to look at/fix the situation. The beds were comfortable, a/c worked very well and overall condo was very clean. The stairs were a little daunting at first but we got use to them after a few days. Our 3 and 4 year old grandkids and their parents took the upstairs bedroom with the sleeper bonus room next to it. Perfect for them. The lower level bedrooms were very noisy as we could hear every step, run, bounce, jump :-) and door shutting they made on the 2nd floor. Walking distance to so many things to do, places to eat, entertainment and shopping. Pool was nice and easy to get to. Beach was merely steps away. Definitely a great rental.

Just needs to be fixed up and deep cleaned

Great location. Doors don’t slide open without force due to the track being really dirty and broken. Lots of little things that should not be broke on our arrival. Front door never closed correctly and was LOUD. Dishwasher did not clean dishes well. Had maintenance over for many issues Bathrooms are so small and need to be better taken care of. The laundry room in the master was nice but didn’t vent properly. So hot in the room. Lots of little things that could have been fixed and or addressed.

Perfect small family retreat

The rental property was great perfect. We had two grandmas in the basement bedrooms. hubby and I in the king upstairs. Baby in the VERY SMALL kids room that is accessed through the king bathroom. Right on the water! 3 BedRooms were big and quiet. Amazing to look out to see the waves all day. We used all 3 patios. Lots of stores close. We used an outside rental company for baby gear like a crib, stroller and booster. They were able to come in before check in to set items up. Beyond Blue called to make sure check in was smooth but otherwise didn't bother us. There was garbage pick up everyday! No crazy cleaning requests. Two sets of steep stairs to be mindful of.

Good stay

Overall great house. I wish there was more of an explanation about the private beach. You have to pay for beach service or set up behind the beach service. The grill did not work. More floor mats by the showers would have been nice. It could use a deep clean too but it was pretty good.

Great location, but not a great experience

Pros: The location is fantastic. This unit is part of a block of townhomes that are right on the beach, so your view is sand dunes and the ocean. This stretch of beach was also pretty quiet compared to how packed the beach is in some areas. Cons: We couldn't really see the view because of how dirty the sliding doors were (I know the sea air leaves residue, but the doors should have been cleaned; we had to buy some Windex and do it ourselves). The sliding doors were all very hard to open; I don't know if they're just old, or the tracks need maintenance, or what. Some of the interior doors would not close all the way; presumably they are no longer plumb because of the foundation settling over the years. One of the ceiling fans was coming out of the ceiling, leaving the wires exposed. A toilet paper roll holder was falling out of the wall, trailing drywall behind it. All minor things, but inexcusable; a handyman could easily fix all of it in one afternoon. Finally, the management company is impossible to get ahold of. The internet was not working when we checked in, and my husband and I both needed it for our jobs. Over the next several days, I called the company literally dozens of times. Not once did anyone pick up the phone. I would leave a message, and wait (and hope) for a response. The employees were friendly when I was able to actually speak with one, but they seem disorganized and it took them days to resolve the internet issue.

Beautiful View

Unit was nicely remodeled. Kitchen is more than well stocked. We cook at home a lot so very important for us. Beds were comfortable. There were only 2 towels per bathroom. Would have liked 1 more. Great beach supplies. The view. Wow. Could sit on the porch for hours. The view is what stole the show. Outer kids were older so they could go down to the ocean and back. Unit could use some rugs to control the sand. We do a lot of beach vacations and having rugs that you can shake out or a vacuum helps. There was a broom at least. Had some issues when we first arrived. 3 rd floor toilet would not flush, toilet paper holder was broken and internet did not work. Called the management company next morning and left a message. Never go a call back. We went and bought supplies and fixed the toilet ourselves. Rebooted the modem, but never got the internet to work. Overall was a wonderful vacation
