"This is perfect location for relaxing on the beach with everything you need in a cozy, well appointed place. The space was bright, soft, tasteful, and clean. We timed it over a beautiful weekend with great weather, and it was not crowded. Mostly the beach was completely empty."

"Lovely condo, picked a great week to be on the beach. Perfect weather, fewer guests due to the end of the summer.
Quiet, peaceful, complimentary beach setups were great every day.
Condo as described"

"We stayed at Kristines place after our initial place (booked through a big company) turned out to be under construction, unusable and unsafe. Luckily there was a cancellation here and we were able to stay! It was a great experience and Kristine was so helpful and kind. We went from thinking we were stranded to having a wonderful trip with our kids. This is a smaller complex so the beach isn’t busy and the back and forth between unit and beach is so easy. We will definitely stay here again. Beach chairs being included is a major plus! All chairs were front row with lots of space on the beach."

"So glad I found this listing. It is a hidden gem. The unit is newly renovated and designed. The location is as good as it gets in Destin. The hosts were very responsive with clear instructions of every detail. What a lovely place. Will be back."

"Canadian here… this was my first time to this part of Florida and I was not disappointed! Stayed for 5 days/4 nights in late May!
The unit looks just like it does in the pictures! The decor is cheerful and beach themed. Love the kitchen - had everything I needed to make light and fresh meal. Bed was super comfy and bathrooms were nice and clean! The balcony is perfect to eat your meals and watch the waves roll in! The beach is right there! Took advantage of the beach service (2x chairs and 1x umbrella) and sat and enjoyed the Gulf and hot sun! Extra perk is that the restaurant next door serves this area too! You can order alcoholic/non-alcoholic beverage and food and have it delivered right to your beach chair. Everything you need is a short drive away… Restaurants, Grocery stores, Retail stores/outlets, local attractions, etc.
If you are reading this, what are you waiting for? Book it!
I would book this place in a heartbeat if I’m back in the area! Wonderful hosts! Thank you again!"
