Perfect New Years in Destin

First time staying at this property, and it couldn’t have gone smoother. The condo is well supplied, beachfront, and clean as a whistle. We were able to check in about 2 hours early thank to a text from the property manager. That was a huge plus.This condo is perfect for a couple or a family with small kids. Would def book again!

Great unit.

With a renovated kitchen and bathroom, this is a great unit situated directly on the beach. We had a great view from the second floor. There is easy access to shopping and multiple and diverse dining options within 1 to 5 miles. We went in late October so there wasn't much traffic but the roads were easy to travel. Overall, this is a great unit and we will consider Cabana Club for our next beach trip.

Exceptional Place!

​What a beautiful place! We enjoyed our stay, from the moment we arrived until we had to leave. Best place we ever rented by far! Perfect location! The apartment was so clean and smelled so fresh. The king size bed was extremely comfortable. Everything we needed was provided. Having a washer and dryer in the unit was definitely a plus, even laundry detergent was supplied. The only thing that could be fixed, there were only 2 butter knives in the drawer, but it was only the two of us, so it was no problem. Had a maintenance issue, reported it and it was quickly resolved. We would definitely love to return as soon as possible! Please note that the property is located on a private beach and beach canopies are not allowed there.

As described

The description and photos are accurate and do the property justice. It was a beautiful unit overlooking a private beach on the gulf. We did find one of the couch cushions had a large wet spot that rendered it unusable for a day until it dried. Be advised Cabana Bay partners with a beach service to provide two chairs and an umbrella for rent at $50 a day. What's unfortunate is if you are not using their rentals you will never have a front row unobstructed view of the gulf. The beach service sets up their chairs and umbrellas across the entire front of the building at the waters edge. The chairs/umbrella are left up all day even if they are not rented. We got to the beach early one morning and set up our own chairs and umbrella. The beach service actually moved them out of the way to put up their own. I highly recommend unit 205 but not so much Cabana Bays partnership with the beach service.

Wonderful one bedroom condo; best one I've ever stayed at and right on the beach! Great jacuzzi tub and shower room. The beach is private and not crowded. I will be back and hope to stay in 205 many times. The Soley staff are very nice and wanted to make sure we had everything we needed for a pleasant visit. This is a CLEAN condo and that is always important to me! Hope to be back soon and enjoy the beautiful view from the balcony.
