The condo was very nice and clean. My only complaint is that upon check-in, there’s a 20 per day resort fee, which added up to over 100 for our stay — something I wasn’t expecting. Also, the two complimentary chairs are just basic fold-up beach chairs, not the beach service chairs I had assumed they’d be. Overall, it’s a great condo and we’ve stayed at The Islander before, but those two unexpected details caught me a bit off guard.

Spring break

Comfortable condo with easy access to beach in a less busy area of Destin! Just our style. Even when the pool area was busy, inside condo was quiet. Our teens enjoyed the pickle ball courts.
