Charlie was the best host and communication was top notch! The condo was clean and easily accessible. The garage parking was a plus we weren’t expecting. We had a minor issue with the door latch and it was fixed within an hour of telling the host. Thank you Charlie for the best beach vacation!

The best experience we have ever had! The views, population, cleanliness, and communication were top notch and welcoming! We will likely never stay anywhere else! The owners go above and beyond to make you feel at home. Also: ceiling fans and extra nightstand fans in case you’re like me and have to have the fan to sleep. Did I mention the view…. Perfection.

7th floor perfect beach and ocean view with daily dolphin sightings in the morning as you sip your coffee on the balcony! We always choose this complex because it’s walking distance to the Back Porch for lunches and has great pizza/donuts and more right across the street. Perfect for a fun week with your kids! The pool and beach access is so easy and there’s even a little community beach toy area where your kids can find floaties or buckets and shovels for the day! The furniture is more up to date than the photos, the kitchen flows nicely, the bathrooms were great, the beds comfortable! The host himself, Charlie, was so kind and communicative- we always felt prepared and the checkout process was simple. As a mama who goes to Destin every year, trust me, just book it! HIGHKY RECOMMEND!!!
