Nice community/Unit needs a little TLC

First of all, this is a nice unit that has great beach access! It does need a little updating and some work. There are a lot of cracked tiles in the unit. Just really need to be replaced. The bed is a nice King, but the mattress is quite firm, so if you're not a firm mattress person, this may not be the unit for you. You are required to take your garbage to a dumpster and, for a short person, it's really challenging to open the top of the dumpster. BUT, it was a nice unit with most any kitchen items you may need. Fridge has an ice maker. Stove is a coil burner, so bit outdated, but in good working condition. Lovely deck area with PVC chaise lounges. Def recommend if youre not too picky. Lol. Had a great time! Destin is Gorgeous!

Nice spot

Its a nice spot but can use a little fixing. The shower can use some upgrading where there's no shower curtain laying on the shower floor from multiple stays. The toilet is pretty small and the cracks in the floor should be fixed. Sliding door can use some fixing also. Other than the things mentioned, its nice

Nice unit, needs updated. Somewhat on the dirty side, floors were filthy, feet turned black within seconds of walking on floors.

Great location

The location was great, the deck was great, the interior of the condo was very outdated.

The check in process was a mess.

The property was in need of a serious upgrade. The 1 king size bed was two twin versions put together and the mattress had a huge dip in it that you would roll into! No place in the shower to place your soap or shampoo, the sofa was ripped, and the flooring was cracked and dirty. One if the kitchen cabinets smelled like a rat died in it. On the other hand, the location was great!

False advertising

Ad says beach front condo but they don't tell you there is a bank of sand so high you can't see water and have to go up and over bank to see water. Condo was filthy.we only had 3 days to stay so we didn't have time to find other place.i would not recommend this place at all. I would not own this condo.

Nice

This property was great! Only down side was the condo has been heavily used and the furniture, carpet, and appliance show that BUT the condo was clean and we really enjoyed being able to walk out the back door and be on the beach. The “back deck” is shared with the other condo and that’s not mentioned in the description.
