Excellent location for spending the week on the water
The condo is great, very clean, and well-apportioned. We brought our boat and the dock was super convenient. Our stay was very relaxing and we will consider this condo again. I just wish we could bring the dogs!

Beautiful condo on the water
The condo was in the perfect location for us as we were going back to Fort Walton daily. The unit was very clean and inviting and the bed in the main bedroom was very comfortable, best nights sleep I had in a while. It is a very short walk to the beach but well worth it. Excellent communication from our host and I'm looking forward to our next trip back.

Great Beach Condo
This was our second time staying in this same exact condo. We keep coming back to it because of the great experience we have with it. Super clean, modern, and a great place to be. The condo is also very close to a gated beach access that contains area of Destin Beach that is never too crowded. The property manger is also super friendly and easy to deal with as well. Our whole family loves this condo and will continue coming back when visiting Destin!

Wonderful vacation
The condo was beautifully decorated and very clean. They had chairs and beach towels to use for the beach. It was really nice to have the dock to use right out front to tie our boat up to. You can set out on the patio and watch the fish jump, which is cool. From the front deck, you can see a little bit of the ocean. The beach is about a 5 min walk from the room and is not packed at all. Very nice area with a lot to do within 5-10 minutes from the condo.

Beautiful property!
We visited Destin because we have family in the area and will definitely be looking into this property again for future trips! We stayed with my parents and toddler and there was plenty of room for all of us. Beautiful location and view - the first night we were there we were greeted by a dolphin swimming in the harbor that evening. Super quiet location! We really appreciated the beach umbrellas, chairs, and towels so that we didn’t have to bring those things. The private beach access was also really nice. Highly recommend!

Awesome Overall Experience
This property was a legitimate 5 star. It was super clean, modern/updated, and was well taken care of. The proximity to the beach was also a plus, as it was a short walk to a non crowded beach in Destin with beautiful crystal clear water and soft sand. The property manger constantly stayed in contact with us as well, ensuring our stay was awesome. We will definitely be coming back here for our Destin vacations. If you choose this place, you will NOT be disappointed.

Perfect family spot
This was my families first time to Destin. Holiday Isle was the perfect spot for my husband and I along with our two teenagers. Being on the harbor allowed us to wake up on the water while watching the pelicans and other birds in a peaceful setting. The water taxi was the best way to get to the harbor shops as well as restaurants for great meals. The beach access was just a short two minutes walk from the property. I would definitely recommend this property to anyone that wants to enjoy all that Destin has to offer without the crowds of the larger resorts.

Easy and relaxing!
We had a wonderful time. The condo was clean, quiet and updated. The property management was incredibly easy to work with and very responsive! They had brochures on things to do around town and everything for the beach. We had two rooms and two bathrooms which allowed one to sleep in and the other to wake up and move around without waking anyone. I highly recommend this condo for anyone.

About the host

Hosted by Jim and Debbie

Host profile image
We are retired and enjoy the best that Florida has to offer. With daughters/grandkids in Destin and Jacksonville, we jump from coast to coast. We absolutely love our Destin condo and are excited to share the beauty and serenity it offers. Our daughter, Jaymie, who lives 5 minutes away does an amazing job coordinating the rental and is quick to resolve any problem.

Why they chose this property

Perfect location for a vacation and this condo has it all - It is nestled between the harbor and the beach allowing some of the most amazing ocean breezes. From the balcony, you can watch playful dolphins/jumping mullet in the harbor or the boats that come to hang out on the sandbar (known as mini crab island). The condo is only a 2 block walk to the beach, where you find sand that feels like sifted flour and clear, beautiful emerald waters. Close to restaurants, groceries, shopping and fun activities. A water taxi will pick you up from the dock (for a small fee) and deliver you to the harbor walk for great food, fun, and entertainment.

What makes this property unique

The warm, romantic ambiance (including the panoramic water views, mood lighting, and electric fireplace) and the Contemporary/Modern design really sets this condo apart.
