Spectacular View!

The unit was nice with an awesome view! Very clean and Covid standards were met. The owner and property manager was very, very nice and accommodating. The only downside...two of the elevators were not working. One of the elevators out of service was at our end of the complex. The complex manager said they should be working in the next couple of weeks. Nice visit to Destin!

Property review

Overall we were very pleased with the property. There was no hair dryer as it stated there would be in the listing, but the owner was very responsive and brought us one. The listing did state there would be 2 rolls of toilet paper per restroom, but there was one 1 per restroom. Since we were only staying 5 days, we did our shopping before we checked in and did not purchase any additional, as we thought we would have enough. We ended up running out with 1 day left and had to go purchase more.

We have been to Destin west every year for the last 5 years and this has been our favorite condo. Amazing view, very clean, perfect location. Balcony is everything you could have asked for and then some. Just listen to the waves and watch the dolphins.

Loved staying in 502. You can see the ocean while cooking breakfast, and hear the ocean from every where in the condo! You can even watch the sunrise from the balcony which is a plus with small children! We loved every minute of our stay and can’t wait to go back again!

First trip to Florida for hubby's 60th birthday!

Cannot say enough about this heavenly beach condo! It was a vacation experience all it's own...my hubby had to remind me there were several things to do OUTSIDE the condo, LOL!! The wrap around balcony...the beach & ocean view...the decor...all the comforts of home (and then some) . Shelley had communicated so well beforehand that I didn't once have to send her a text or call while we were on vacation. She included a list of her favorite places to eat and things to do in the area, which was helpful! Overall this was a five star vacation and we would love to stay again! I think I got brownie points with the hubby...he loved that we could sit on the balcony and see multiple fighter jets fly by...I told him I ordered those for his birthday!!
