Perfect week
This was such an amazing place. The condo was well furnished and tastefully decorated. It was extremely clean and we all felt very comfortable in the space. My family particularly enjoyed the view from the balcony, we watched the fireworks, a concert, a magic show and so on and the people watching was excellent! We ate at several of the restaurants in the development and did some shopping and it was all very nice. One thing in particular that I really loved was the fact that even though we were in the middle of the action, it was very quiet at night. We heard no outside noise whatsoever while sleeping, which is a big deal for us. I pack earplugs whenever I travel, but didn't need them on this trip at all.

The perfect condo at Baytowne
Three lifelong friends stayed for 3 nights for the 2nd year in a row. The convenience of this particular condo is fantastic. No driving for entertainment. The Sand Dollar tram takes you to the beach and the restaurants are feet away from the condo. Wonderful nightly fun entertainment on the lawn for summer entertainment. It can all be viewed and enjoyed from the spacious balcony. The decor is class with perfection. Cleanliness is top notch. We can not say enough great things about this unit. We will be returning next year!

Amazing view
The place we were at, looked just like the pictures! It was beautiful. It was super close to the pool and a click away from being in the downtown area. It was enough space for my family and I. The kids, my husband and I enjoyed it. Instructions were left and an open line of communication was established ahead of time, if anything was needed. Only cons, we couldn’t find extra bedding for pull out bed and we had to wear shoes inside because if not the bottom of our feet would be black. Other than that it was very relaxing and enjoyable with our family! Definitely would like to go again such a great experience to have with our little ones.

This was the most well prepared vacation property we’ve ever stayed in! In addition to its perfect location, the condo was equipped with everything you could ever need! From paper towels and dish pods to hair dryers and charging stations, they had it all! It smelled magnificent and the views were so fun to enjoy all of the community entertainment. We had an amazing time!

*Perfect Rental*
This rental was the perfect condo for three lifelong friends to enjoy a weekend in the area and specifically Baytowne. Baytowne already has a lot to offer and this rental is literally in the heart of the village. The spacious balcony over looks the village entrance and restaurants. You can’t beat being “right on top” of the attractions that the village has to offer. The condo was decorated with class, perfectly clean and comfortable! We will be making this an annual trip we have decided . The owners were very attentive and accommodating. Super people!

Prime location in the village!
The condo is cute, well taken care of and clean. Prime location if you want to be able to see all the entertainment. Unfortunately our trip had to be cut short due to unknown renovations in a unit above but the owners allowed us to relocate. Perfect place to take a family, though. So many activities all within walking distance.

We don't live far away and travel to Sandestin a few times each year. The balcony attracted us to this property, and I'm glad it did! The hosts sent all of the check in information in advance. Check in was a breeze. The property is clean and looks just like the photos. Will definitely be back!

Last Hoo-Rah of summer
My family and I stayed for three nights, the condo is very comfortable and felt like a home. The Baytowne Warf is a great dining/entertainment area, we thoroughly enjoyed the fireworks show from the balcony. The only issues we had were small ones, like a toilet that you had to flush three times to get it to go down, or the drain in the shower not being attached to the shower floor. Minor annoyances to an otherwise wonderful stay.

Best Location in the Resort!!
We’ve stayed in several different areas on the Sandestin resort, and this has by far been the best location. The condo was really nice and the pool/fitness areas were awesome. Staying right at the Village provided such easy access to everything we needed.

Wonderful condo amazing view
If you like to people watch, this is the place for you. The porch looks directly over where all the activities happen in the Village Square. Be warned that some of the Bars can be pretty loud, while the condo is very soundproof, bring earplugs just in case. Lots of things for 20 year olds to enjoy, and the four and six year-old enjoyed the playground to the max every day. Huge playground. Lots of kids to play with. Best enjoyed if you have a single car, finding parking for the second car can be hard at peak times unless you’re willing to walk a bit.

Great property
We really enjoyed our stay on this property. Very close to everything in the village. They had everything we could need and a store, shops, eateries, and entertainment just outside the building doors. We especially enjoyed the patio for relaxing and watching the entertainment after going to the beach or the pool. The owners were very responsive and helpful when needed. We will definitely rent this one again!

About the host

Hosted by Sandra or Warren Bondi

Host profile image
In case you are wondering who we are, and where we are from,the next few tidbits should clue you in.Warren and I both grew up in the New Orleans metro area. We were childhood sweethearts and have been married for 32 years. We have one son Warren II, a beautiful daughter-in-law, and an adorable granddaughter that we just love to pieces. We were your average family just going about life until one historical day. On August 29, 2005 our lives were forever changed. Hurricane Katrina destroyed our community and our home.Our home was just eight months old when Katrina's waters ravaged its walls. We had eight feet of water for three weeks in our home. Our families being as close as we are, all were in the same surrounding area. We found ourselves in a very unfair predicament. No one had a home or belongings. We only had each other which later proved to be far better than any materialistic thing.We rebuilt our home and our families homes.You learn a lot about life when everything else is gone.The simple things mean so much more. You never take for granted whats here today. It just might not be there tomorrow. We can't get the old pictures back so we have to rely on our memory for those special times we shared. We have new pictures now and and new memories and a bigger appreciation for those special times.

Why they chose this property

Warren and I first stayed in Sanddestin the summer of 2006. We decided we needed to get out of town and bring our son and a friend who had also lost his home with us just to get the kids away from all of the destruction before they went back to school. We ended up in the Village because it was a last minute trip and the beach was all booked up. We had always gone to Destin but always stayed on the beach. Once we stayed in the Village we have never stayed on the beach again. It was New Orleans all over for us. Only without the destruction and the new construction going on at home. We fell in love with The village of Baytowne Wharf and vowed to each other once we got back on our feet we would have a place to call home in Sanddestin. We moved back in our house in June of 2007 and in February of 2009 we purchased our condo in Observation Point North.The Warrens and I LOVE Vacations. We love Destin, Cruising and just about any destination. Not much notice is needed and we are on our way.

What makes this property unique

Our condo gives us the best of both worlds. The balcony puts us right in the center of it all overlooking events plaza. The unit is also steps away from the pool. If we want the beach we can be there in a jiffy. We can sit outside and read a book. We have taken our condo and tried to give it a sense of New Orleans. We love our condo and we know our guest will too.
