Great getaway for a relaxing trip. Very clean and quiet property. We enjoyed being steps away from the beach and the relaxing in the outdoor pool before heading up to the condo.

4/5 Week Vacation

Overall a wonderful week, the SunDestin is a great spot to stay. The staff were nice and the beach was perfect. The unit needs a few updates and repairs, but overall was great. A few of the outlets did not work, the vent in the bathroom with the shower didn’t work, the bedroom closet door looked like it was going to fall, the couches need a deep clean. We appreciated the notice that construction was underway due to hurricane damage ~ it was not disruptive. We met a resident who was very kind. Would stay at the SunDestin again!

Condo dated

Condo didn't have washer and dryer, unit is dated and needs a face lift! Funiture was old and table had bad water stain bubbling up in it! Tub drain wouldn't drain well would fill up over feet as I showered. Didn't have all kitchen appliances like coffee k cup machine, old coffee pot, shower head had a zip tie on it. It in need of a renovation. Seeing it in line and than in person staying was totally different. Very disappointed for the money I paid to stay there in it.

Wasn’t what pictures make it out to be! Everything is dated. Tub drain was only slowly drain! Funiture old and dirty looking. Website said it had all cooking stuff to prepare meals it didn’t, didn’t have a washer and dryer!! Had two toilets in the same bath area wierd!

Just wasn’t what we expected and paid for everything was dated the bathtub. Would not drain correctly when showering. Didn’t have a washer and dryer, the faucet head had a zip tie on it for some reason don’t know why didn’t have but an old coffee maker, no cup coffee maker, as it was advertised that it had all cooking utensils and pots and pans and stuff it didn’t. Not enough hand towels, washcloths very disappointed in the unit and the condition Harley any pictures everything is outdated the unit needs to be remodeled and painted.

Update of unit needed.

Renting was easy. Pucture gave impression you were looking directly at the beach. But, actually a side condo. Need a new area rug, worn. Update to stainless appliances. Bed was very comfortable. Need to provide coffee and update to keurig.
