Spring break
Everything was great except too many rules for me…I.e. must always wear wristbands, no smoking anywhere except far away near a very busy street, security (the female one) is just rude, and etc.

Great location!
Myself and my two teenage daughters enjoyed our recent trip to Destin. The condo was very clean and well appointed. The location couldn’t be better for both enjoying the beautiful beaches or shopping and dining around town. We will definitely consider it again for future stays.

Not very kid friendly
There was no plastic dining ware for children to use. I had a 1 and 3 year old with me. No single pool or beach amenity in the room to share/use. Outlet covers falling off walls, light switches that do nothing, ceiling fans that don’t work. Had to pay $50/day for beach umbrella/2 chairs. $10/person for a pool wristband and parking pass. So factor that into the cost.

would stay here again
this was a great location. didnt like that the garage was so dark from the pool to the elevators. Everythign is locked down with door codes which is great except for the garage area. One day we had someone strange man just walking around the garage and made you feel a little uncomfortable. Did not like that you to rent the chairs to site close the beach. I was told that I had to set up behind the chairs with my blanket. I do not like to have a chair and umbrella I use just my blanket. Makes it hard to watch the kids in the water if I have to be behind the chairs. Grounds were very well kept the tile floors in the unit can use a good cleaning. We really did enjoy our time and I would consider staying in this unit again. We like to come to Destin every oct.

Vacationer beware
As we walked into the unit, I saw stained sheets rolled and taped up (presumably for the fold out couch). It appeared to be a blood stain. This prompted me to look around. There was some sort of sticky read frozen liquid in the freezer left from the previous guest. There was no less than three different types of hair on the rug in the master bathroom. None of the matching ours. The sliding glass door did not lock and there was no board or stick to secure it. Even though it is on an upper floor it would be easy from someone next door to get to the unit. I brought all of these things to managements attention only to have them hand us a broom to break off our self. They offered to re-clean the room But I had already re-cleaned everything myself because at that point I didn’t trust their abilities. After I left I spoke with the Vacasa management team. He told me that he had been advised by his group that everything had been checked before I got there. Pretty much making it seem like I had lied about the issues. The location is beautiful! The beach is beautiful! We had a great time at the pool! But just be advised they don’t do a great job on cleaning and there’s a lot of rundown things about this unit. The master sink is loose, the shower doesn’t drain, And I already mentioned the sliding glass door.

False Advertising
This property is advertised as having two adult sized beds, a king and queen. Upon arriving, we found single bunk beds in one room instead of the queen. Nowhere in the photos or description does it mention having single sized bunk beds. This was extremely frustrating as we had two married couples in the condo. My husband and I could not even sleep in the same bed together on this vacation. Complete false advertising. Would NOT recommend.

Beautiful Clean Condo
The condo was amazing and very clean. I will definitely stay here again. I had a little problem getting in and at first the person at the desk was not very helpful. However after she called her manager they were able to figure it out and get me a code that worked. Overall I loved the condo.

Great condo!
Clean and very nice condo. The only downside is that you have to rent beach chairs at the beach. The rules of the HOA did not allow personal umbrellas.
