Awesome vacation ever!!

It was so easy to rent this unit, it was everything that was advertised. It had everything we could possibly want, we cooked in a few nights and ate in the downstairs restaurant for lunch. We had a great time and we could see the Ocean from our balcony. We would definitely do this again and would recommend it to everyone wanting a great vacation. Thanks

Last Minute Getaway From The Snow - Great Decision!

This is a large property, on a nice beach. The building is well maintained with multiple amenities (pools, hottub, cafe, etc.). Check-in was a breeze. The RealJoy Mgmt Co is very professional & I would definitely rent a property of theirs again. This particular unit is comfortable, yet the carpet & paint are a bit dated/worn (which is why I only gave 4 stars for cleanliness).

Very deceiving

The location and amenities were phenomenal. The rental on 213 was not. The place did not look anything like the pictures.. The rug in the picture was brown and black from dirt. The carpets were extremely dirty and the comforters were not clean. They smelled horrible. I contacted real joy who sent over clean comforters. We are extremely disappointed. The bifold door in bathroom was broken and hanging off the track. Kitchen sink dripped constantly and pictures hanging off walls. Towel holder must’ve broke and someone screwed right through hardware to fix it. I could go on, but I gave the list to real joy. I hope the owners update their property.

Stay was great, the weather did not want to cooperate, but still had a good time. The only downside was not being allowed to take our own beach chairs to the waters edge and having to rent one if you want one close

Beautiful Gulf of Mexico Stay

Destin beach and ocean beautiful. Nice size clean pools and hot tubs but very family centered, lots of kids so not any in pool time for our adult group. But nice lounging around pools with plenty chaise lounges. Tiki beach bar great, good food in Cafe not cheap but to be expected in this area.

Needs lots of updates!

We had some issues with this property. The refrigerator didnt work, kitchen sink leaks, master bedroom toilet run constantly and we had maintenance there twice. A drawer in the fridge door came off and broke glass everywhere, also cutting my leg!! It was antique decor not a beachy theme which we didnt like.

Pelican

We were told there was some renovation work of outdoor walkways taking place on floors 9-16. There would be some noise and dust. It started at 8am and continued til 5pm. Jack hammering and such. We we on floor 2 and it was so loud we couldn’t have a conversation in our apartment. The walkways to the front were blocked so we had to walk in the drive. This place is not in walking distance to anything. Must go by car everywhere. Great place if you just want a resort on the beach and nothing else. Felt the renovations should have been explained quite differently.
