Absolutely incredible! The view of the ocean was spectacular, the condo was large enough for us (family of 3), the location was great and the beach ----- oh goodness the beach was gorgeous!
We come down to Florida pretty much every year to vacation and this was our first in the Destin area, and I don't think we'll ever go anywhere else! I cannot reccomend this condo enough! The amenities were better than a hotel, and there is a tv in every room! The kitchen was great for cooking meals so we didn't have to eat out all the time. The 2 full bathrooms were bigger than the ones we have at home. The balcony was great, although it faces due south so you don't get an amazing view of the sunrise or sunset, but the beach is right there. And did I mention the beach?!?! The beach is literally across the street and is private access. You can rent beach equipment or bring your own, we used the provided chairs and umbrella and it was more than enough! We hauled the chairs, umbrella, 2 beach bags and a baby across the parking lot and across the street in less than 5 minutes and it was so convenient!
Ariel Dunes I is located in the Seascape condo development in Miramar Beach, which is just east of Destin by a few miles. There are so many shops, restaraunts and things to do that will keep you and your family having fun the entire time you're down there. One thing we noted is that the Destin area is a lot busier than Miramar beach. We like to get away from busy cities and crowds of people when we vacation and this condo was perfect for that. The condo association is very professional and the on-site (and present) security made us feel incredibly safe as well as comfortable. One thing I did notice about the area (which has nothing to do with the condo) is there can be a lot of traffic in the area, especially around rush hour. Other than sitting in traffic a couple times going out to see the sites, this vacation was perfect! Thank you Wendy!
