We enjoyed staying in the condo, the views of the ocean were amazing, easy access to the beach. Perfect size for our family. We would stay here again and plan on doing so in the near future.
Condo was perfect for me and my family. Staff were very friendly and accommodating to any needs we had. Perfect location that allowed us to travel to local restaurants in minutes.
Great location, unit was very well kept. Washer and dryer for this unit a big plus. Pickle ball every morning . 5 star location

Fantastic unit, clean, with tasteful decor. We really enjoyed our stay!
The unit was just as described. Everyone was very helpful on getting in our unit. The weather was perfect which is what we needed to relax and renew. The sunsets were absolutely beautiful.
Unit was perfect for two. Could use pantry space. Saw dolphins every day frolicking. Staff was accommodating. Beach was perfect.

My family and I had the best vacation! Holiday Surf and Racquet Club made this stay worth it! Unit 518 was perfect!! Such a clean and welcoming facility The staff was amazing. This place is full of kind people! I would recommend 100%. I can’t give this place enough stars. So thankful that our trip was blessed!
We joined a friend couple in Destin that we have been friends with for 40 years. They are our best friends and Godparents to our son. We moved from the midwest to the east 17 years ago, so we don’t see them regularly like we did when we lived next door. We have talked about getting together for a long time and we finally did it! The place we selected in Destin was absolutely perfect and we had a blast! What a beautiful place to reconnect with old friends! So much to do and, of course, some serious beach time on the cool to the touch sandy beaches. Our vacation was a 10 for sure! Planning for next years trip with our friends already!!!

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, location
Disliked: Communication, listing accuracy
Was not the same unit as listed
Overall our stay was OK however we were put into a completely different unit which did not have two king beds (which we specifically booked and paid for). The unit we were given had only one king bed and the other bedroom only had a queen and a twin. Also, the dishwasher in the unit we were in didn't wash properly and the heater/ furnace was very loud. Beach was amazing and loved the location.
We loved the condo. We were two couples and this layout had two king bedrooms with two bathrooms. Water views were just beautiful. Great location close to restaurants. Would recommend .
