Beautiful ocean view. Great location.

The building where the condo is located is a bit run down but the condo itself is WOW! . We LOVE the decorations. It makes you feel like home the moment you step in. Everything seems so new and well kept. They even have a box full of beach equipment for you to use. There are many convenience stores and restaurants nearby. Would definitely book it again next time we are in Destin.

Family Vacation

We stayed here last year and loved the condo and location so much we came again this year. The view is breathtaking, and the condo is exceptionally clean and beautiful. Parking is easy, secure and safe property, kitchen well equipped although we went out to dinner every night to the many restaurants that are close by. Property is kept up nicely, beach access right across the street. Hope to return again next year!

A fun family vacation in Destin

We enjoyed our stay at this location, our two kids loved their rooms too. The neutral colors and decor in the home set a good mood our beach vacation. The closeness and well paved access of the apartment to the beach was a plus for us, thank you for making our vacation most memorable and convenient to the local restaurants, we enjoyed dinner at Margaritaville plus a zip lining activity for the kiddos. We look forward to returning and hopefully find this property available, thank you from the z Okoth family 🏖

Loved this Condo!

Beautiful condo as pictured in listing. Had some issues with it not being cleaned when we arrived, and it was difficult to reach help through the property management company. But after reaching out to VRBO support line it was taken care of. Would definitely stay there again!

Condo was nice but the resort needs work

The condo unit itself was very nice, the resort as a whole needs works. Elevators are broken, out of three only one was operating. Expect to spend the majority of your vacation waiting on an elevator or you hike up the stairs the penthouse. Even going down the stairs is a struggle when you have beach bags, toys, kids etc.

Luxury

PH13 is as stunning…everything from the throw pillows to the giant shower was high end! My only “boo-hoo” would be discovering the dryer didn’t work…it turns on, it spins, but the clothes are still wet as they were when I pulled them from the washer. Oh-well, I’m sure it’s on the “needs fixed” list. I wasn’t going to let it ruin that stunning view!

Perfect location

We traveled as a family of 6 with 3 kids under 11. Condo was very spacious. The couch was so comfy. The kitchen had everything we needed. The bathrooms are huge. The master bedroom bed is worn out and should be replaced. It has indentions of where folks have slept. All other beds were great. The pool was great size for kids. There are 2 pools. There is a short walk across to the beach and you have to cross a small side road which was not busy. The complex is just across the street from The Back Porch restaurant and food and service was good. The condo is located near a lot of stuff to do. We didn’t want to leave. Plano to go back next summer.
