Good location
Rough start as there was miscommunication about a leak in the kitchen ceiling. The code we received via email was the wrong one however we received a new one quickly after sending a text. 2 hours after checking in the maintenance crew let themselves in and scared our teenage daughters as strange men walked into the unit. They left the ceiling open and a bag full of old drywall pieces in the kitchen. I believe they didn’t know we were checking in. They still could have rang the doorbell since my truck was in the driveway. There was a pillow that had what looked like blood on it. In the master bedroom there were dirty wash clothes left in the shower on the bench. A few small items was there was no plug for the kitchen sink to pre wash dishes. We only had two small dish towels. We had to buy garbage bags and toilet paper (we may have been told this but I didn’t see it). The garbage cans in the driveway smelled terrible and you could smell it without opening top. From a use perspective we loved the location and used the boat lift daily as this was the main reason for renting the unit.

Spring Break 2024
This townhouse was clean and well equipped. Guest services responded promptly via text messages and quickly resolved issues (needed propane for the grill). The location is awesome and convenient. It’s just a quick boat taxi ride and you’re at the harbor boardwalk where all the action is! We greatly enjoyed our stay!

Stunning Views
House and property was exactly as described. Took my Mom who is 85 and we enjoyed every moment. Very conveniently located to beaches, restaurants, shopping entertainment for families and spas. Norriego Point is walking distance but super easy to go to Calhoun Beach Trail near the Backporch by car if you’re taking lots of beach “gear.” Beautiful sunrises and sunsets viewed from the privacy of one of three balconies and/or decks. Great boat dock and lift if you are bringing your boat! This property is clean, quiet, perfect! Sit on the balcony with your morning coffee and enjoy!

Looks great at first, but poor workmanship...several issues..
The property is on a beautiful location where we could watch dolphins and pelicans from the balcony. While we enjoyed our time here visiting family, for the price of what we spent we did not feel it was worth what we paid for considering the many issues we dealt with: 1. The 3rd bedroom is on the ground level, through the garage at the back of the house and has an exterior door to the back yard. We did not feel comfortable letting young kids sleep there, and would have gone with a different property if we had realized this ahead of time (that's our mistake though). Also the bathroom for that bedroom is under the stairs, and is very small. There is not enough room for a grown man to sit on the toilet because the wall is so close to the toilet, it's only big enough for children to use. 2. One of the master bathroom sinks leaked. It went through the cabinets and made a large puddle on the floor. When we looked at the plumbing, the plumbing looks cheaply done, and there is plumbers putty and sealant in the cabinets behind the towels so it seems like it is a recurrent problem. A maintenance worker came by and fixed the leak, however they left the soaked towels in a pile in the shower. 3. When we pulled a towel off of the towel rack in the master bath, the rack came off the wall. This wasn't an aggressive yank, just a normal taking a towel off a rack motion...we tried to put the towel rack back together and could not. Also the shower floor is not sloped properly, so it pools a bit in one corner instead of draining properly. The sink in the other bedroom also drains slowly while the kids were washing their hands or brushing their teeth. 4. The toaster caught on fire when we tried having bagels the first morning there. When we inspected it, the heating elements on the inside were broken. It was replaced, but with another broken toaster. We didn't bother reporting the second broken toaster though. 5. The window by the laundry room leaked when it rained. My family and I enjoyed our time here, but will choose a different property next time due to the many maintenance issues.

Misleading at best.
Before check in, we were notified there was a leak in the garage so maintenance tore a whole in the ceiling of the garage to repair leak. In the garage, not a problem. When we arrived we learned you had to walk through the garage to access 3rd bedroom. The 3rd bedroom is far from habitable. We found spiders and bugs in that room. The bathroom was a joke. You had to step up 10 inches to get to the toilet. Then step sideways around the toilet to access the shower. Your knees hit the wall in front of you when using the toilet. The view of the harbor is good but the listing was misleading at best. It advertised 3 bdrms when only 2 were habitable. Very, very disappointed with our stay.

Really great stay in newly renovated townhome with nice cottage feeling right on the bayside in Destin. Good walking distance to super beach, especially Noriega point with crystal clear water. My only problem was getting into the place because the lockbox key code did not work properly and then trying to get hold of the vacasa call center was tooo long waiting on phone.
