Area Attractions:
It's a terrific residential area, yet close to restaurants and activities in Destin.
Close by is Destin Commons, a beautifully landscaped, pedestrian-friendly area and a great family venue where children will love to play in the interactive water fountains. Also for the younger guests, a nautically/pirate themed outdoor playground features a 1,750 square foot soft play area with various creatures from the sea, slides, and a treasure chest! Destin Commons also has a mini-train for the kids. Destin Commons features over 75 shops and restaurants, including Godiva Chocolates, AMC Movie Theaters and Bass Pro Shop.
If you are near Miramar Beach, the snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Dolphin Reef, deployed in 2017. Located just 685 feet straight out from the Miramar Regional Public Beach access (by Pompano Joe's), it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Dolphin Reef is at a depth of 12-20 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

The condo was overall wonderful! The size was perfect for our needs. The lack of toilet paper for a stay of up to 10 people, lack or towels, and blankets to accommodate such amounts was disappointing. The listing offered the golf cart in the listing without stating a required daily fee! It was very disheartening to know that we had to spend more money even though the listing stated otherwise. Overall the community was great, condo was amazing, but I would encourage the change of the above items. They’re a simple fix to accommodate your guests.
Our family spent a week in Destin and really loved the property that we chose to stay in. When we had questions, answers were provided quickly and we really felt hospitality coming from Real Joy! Thanks a great week of memory making!
The house was clean and spacious. Close proximity to the beach and even closer to shops and restaurants cutting down on Ubers. Our only complaint was the beds were terrible quality in all the rooms.
Nice condo, property well upkept. Just hate kitchen and master bed was upstairs

Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy
I am not happy with our stay or the customer service I received when I reported the problem. The listing was a bait and switch using the golf cart as a draw to the property.
Overall our stay was not bad, however, the bathroom in the master suite was filthy upon arrival. Especially the shower. I would highly recommend a deep clean for the shower. The vacuum and mop head were filthy as well. Walls need to be washed throughout the place. Whoever they are paying to clean the place after guests, needs to be reconsidered. Bring your own pillows too!
