We couldn’t get into the condo when we arrived. The code we received didn’t work & we had to call the management company. We had to stand in the hall for about 20 minutes on the phone with them to get a code that worked. The suite didn’t have an ice maker as advertised in the listing. The small frig didn’t have a freezer section. We had to get ice in an adjacent building. The washer & dryer was old, a coin op & in the parking area of the building. We communicated before we traveled about a washer/dryer in the unit because the listing was not too clear about that. We were told in a message online that it was in the unit. The building was under renovation & the noise was loud inside & outside.

Lacked transparency.

Ideal location and view of the ocean. However, surprise to us upon arriving that the building was under renovation and the pool was closed our entire stay. Was a huge bummer seeing as we booked this property specifically because of the location and pool to use when not at the beach. (Traveling with a small child). This was not communicated to us ahead of time or anywhere in the listing. I’m big on honesty and transparency especially when it comes to someone’s money. Big red flag- Spend your money elsewhere.

Great Spot

Everything about our stay was great. This place has all the amenities you want from a hotel with none of the check in hassle. We got in pretty late and were able to park and get into the room with ease. The location is great, it’s a short walk tot he beach and the building has a pool and a hot tub area right outside. In and out parking makes it easy to get to anything else you could want to see. Plus, the view is amazing. Would definitely stay here again.

Overall good stay!

Overall good experience; there were not very many luggage carts, we were on the 17th floor, so we had to make multiple trips to and from the car. I also think it would be helpful to notate on the listing that there is only a kitchenette in this unit, without a cook top or oven. The pool was very nice and access to the beach was easy, however the beach was very crowded. We still had a great time!

Absolutely terrible 0/10. Never would recommend.

The room was disgusting. Mildew on shower curtain, mold, water leaking spots that were painted over, lights not working, so much dust, items under bed that wasn’t even ours, out of AC for 24 hours and never got it fixed. Water went out, only one elevator working for 19 floors. No Wi-Fi working. Custom service help line as a joke.

Not what I expected.

I’ve rented studios before & this was by far the smallest. When it said steps to the beach, I assumed, which is my fault, that I would be able to sit & hear the ocean from my room, but with no opening windows, I was very disappointed. There were no blankets for the pull out sofa, so we had to go buy them. Having SEVERE allergies, the dust blowing out of the air duct was ridiculous. Taking it upon ourselves, we dusted the vent which piled in the floor it was so bad, I took pictures & the filter was even worse! Places on walls looked like they’d been patched for a while but remained unpainted. Just was on impressed overall.

Destination Wedding

We were in town for a friend's destination wedding. Room was great. I must have misread the coffee description, it's a Keurig, not a coffeepot, but that was easily rectified. Bed was comfy and room was clean. Views were perfect. This is the 2nd time we've stayed at the Luau in SanDestin and it won't be the last.
