Picture perfect!

We had an amazing stay at DestinMe Beach Retreat. Everything was exactly as pictured, if not better (like the beds & bedding comfort- you can’t get that from photos). Probably the best sleep I’ve ever had away from home. Me and my three kiddos each had a spot to rest with the really nice couch pullout and hall bunks. My youngest loved the bathtub so much he probably had three baths a day (ours at home isn’t as nice for soaking). The game selection was a nice touch and we donated a box of Rummikub, one of our family favorites for travel. As for the mom things: it’s rare to find people as detailed as I am, but this place fits the bill. Lots of communication, it’s impossible to miss- which is very nice when traveling. They were very responsive and fair (we needed remote batteries but then I accidentally packed home their first aid kit and they called it “fair exchange”). I love the focus on natural cleaners. The place did not have a toxic chemical smell from candles, artificial smell cleaners, etc. That can be hard to find online when staying in new places. The kitchen was more than well stocked. If you make meals there, you should have plenty of utensil/bowl/tool choices. Not sure if the bag of ice in freezer was for us or left behind by last party but that was a nice touch. Lots of other nice touches here. Very well thought out space and rental. Thank you for allowing our family to stay in your special place! We hope to be back soon!!!

This condo in in a great location. Close to the beach and a short car ride from restaurants, shopping and other activities. The condo is well maintained and was stocked with everything we needed for our stay. Unfortunately, our week had lots of rain but we were able to spend time on the covered balcony still enjoying the outdoors and hearing the waves.

This was a great place to stay for a getaway!

Walking into the room, you could tell it had been cleaned well and the place was well cared for. The place was spotless. It has pretty well everything you would ever need. Out on the balcony there is the awesome ocean view (even though it's across the street). The baby gate provided was awesome for us. The whole property seemed well cared for. It is close and convenient to everything. Would definitely recommend staying here.

Absolutely everything you need. Condo was clean and given start-up supplies. lots of room and sleeping places. If I had a question the owners could be reached via emails and responded quickly. The condo is on the corner of crosswalk to beach...3 minutes and your feet are in the sand. Using Vrbo App keeps you updated with your vacation time and place. Found a new way to vacation.

Perfect Stay to celebrate a birthday and New Year's Eve!

This was a last-minute trip to Destin to celebrate a birthday and to ring in 2021. We really enjoyed staying at this condo. The location is great right there on Scenic Hwy 98 and access to the beautiful white sandy beach is quick and easy. Even though the building is across the street from the gulf, the view of the gulf from the balcony of this condo (3rd floor) is amazing! You can also easily hear the waves crashing on the beach! Tile floor throughout (hardwood in the bedroom) helps to make the condo feel fresh and clean. It was a pleasure dealing with Terri and we highly recommend staying at this condo. We enjoyed a wonderful time!

We fell in Love with this Property because of the Views of the Gorgeous Water and Beach.
