After weeks of searching the internet for condo rentals in the Destin area I happened to have stumbled upon this amazing deal. Don't let the fabulous rates for this rental fool you. It is very nice, clean and comfortable. The complex itself is very quiet and everyone we met there was friendly. Back home I live in an apartment complex and I can tell you there was a significant difference in noise levels between this complex and my apartment complex. We never heard neighbors at all while staying at this condo.
The furniture has, apparently, been upgraded since the pics on this site were taken. The living room now has a comfortable leather reclining chair with ottoman, a sofa bed and a love seat, which were all very comfortable.
Although the wireless internet is advertised as being at the pool areas, we were able to have an adequate wireless connection while in the condo's sunroom and that was very convenient.
There is a bbq pit near the bottom of the stairs leading up to the unit, which was very nice. I did use that, although it rained while I was cooking. haha
The laundry facilities are near the office at the Airport Road entrance to the complex and there is a pool right outside the spacious laundry room. So, the kids can swim and keep occupied while mom does laundry. I did note that the laundry room was not crowded and I was able to do three loads of laundry at the same time, which saved a lot of time. The office staff was more than happy to make change for me to use the machines.
The ice cream shop behind the unit is within walking distance as is Chik-Fil-A, Wendy's, Waffle House, souvenir shops, and Big Kahuna's Water Park.
I must say what made the vacation so much better for us was the owners and their kindness and flexibility. Chris worked with me on dates and was very patient. Todd brought over a brand new blender when I reported that there was no blender in the kitchen. They are really great people who are very professional, yet understanding and most accommodating.
We will be back! Thanks, Chris and Todd :-)
