Very clean & great layout

Condo was clean & the layout was great! Ice maker wasn’t good so plan on buying ice! Cabinet finish is coming off & almost will cut you, definitely think this needs attention.

Spring Break 2023

Family oriented spring break. Location was away from the hustle of Destin..beautiful beach. Secure facility. My family had a great time. Condo needs a few updates, but honestly that's where we sleep..ocean was our goal. Facility caretakers were wonderful with getting us extra bedding and a blow-dryer. Sofa sleeper mattress needs to be updated, but air mattress was great, just had a slow leak. Overall we had a great time. Thank you.

Island Echos 4A

The location was wonderful, as were the beach chairs and umbrella as part of the package! The downside was the unit itself which was in need of repairs. Paint was peeling on cabinets in both kitchen and bathroom, coffee pot needs replacing, bathroom is dated and overall the unit lacked a sense of caring. Also, the mattress was beyond worn out with a major dip that made us glad we didn’t stay longer.

Disappointed

This particular condo is very outdated. 1 chair in the balcony, tape over receptacles, mattress was absolutely awful. Kitchen cabinet paint was peeling. Nothing extra ..

Unit 4A

Overall this unit was adequate for our needs. The living room furniture and carpeting were clean and maintained. They could improve it with a different cleaning company. The dishes and coffee pot were dirty. I had to wash them before use. There was an opened can of wine on the dresser (not mine), an empty bottle of water (not mine), the fridge had not been wiped out. There was a plastic netting zip tied to the balcony railing that obstructed the view. There was clear tape over the majority of the outlets. The bed and bathroom fixtures could use an update. There were no dishes to cook with for the oven.

Island Echos Unit 4A

The only thing great about this unit is the view of the ocean, that's it. We always stay at Island Echos because we love the place and have referred many people. It was our 20th wedding anniversary and we chose to come back. The unit was a complete disappointment, period. The cabinets are coming apart, everything is so outdated, the tub was nasty, shower curtain had mildew and the shower rod was rusted. You would be better off to sleep on the couch or floor than the mattress in the bedroom. We had a horrible problem with gnats in the unit - they were there when we got there. The air unit is so loud in the bedroom you can't hardly sleep. The unit really looked like it had been decorated from a thrift store, and nothing matched including the silverware. I'm not sure if we will be back after this visit, I can't believe that Island Echos would associate it's name and reputation with the condition of this unit. The owner of the unit should be ashamed.

Perfect getaway!

We loved our stay! Our view was exactly what we were looking for. The walk to the beach was just feet away, and easy for us to run to the room real quick and didn’t need to haul a lot of things down. We will definitely book Asian!

Perfect getaway!

The view is amazing!! It’s exactly what we were hoping for. The kitchen is a bit dated but we didn’t mind because the location and view was what we were looking for. The bed is really comfortable and there is plenty of space for a queen air mattress in the living room area. It’s less than a 3 min walk to the beach making it very convenient to run back to the room for lunch, snacks, etc. Thanks for a great trip!
