This is our second time staying in this condo. It’s perfect for our family. Beautiful views and so close to the beach. We love the community so much!!!
The condo we rented was as advertised, clean and spacious with views of the beach. Unloading and packing up can be somewhat of a pain as you have to park a good ways away from the condo itself. You have to be on the beach at 7:30 AM each day to if you want a front row set of beach chairs. You must stay there until the beach setup crew checks you in sometime between 8:30 - 9:00 AM

The condo was perfect for my family! There were 3 of us & it was just enough space. The view is breathtaking! The only complaint I would have is the door from the living room to the patio is really heavy & extremely difficult to close. The same one is in the primary bedroom& is a lot easier to use. Would highly recommend this place!

We had a wonderful stay! The location is wonderful. The condo is very clean! The only downside to the whole stay was the parking at the condominium. If it is a busy time of year, parking can be hard to find & the community doesn’t allow you to park in the owners spots. We will be staying here again in the future!!
Loved the condo! The decor was beautiful and the beds were so comfortable! Easy beach access and the view definitely the best!! Will definitely be back!

Awesome, better than expected based on prior rentals.
Our little family of three enjoyed every minute of our vacation. The condo was absolutely perfect and close to everything. Beach service attendants was awesome. The community offered so much for all ages. We have never been to Florida during October and we will definitely be back during this time of the year. Such a great experience from start to finish. Thank you!!!!

We had a great time at MS243. The room was exactly as pictured and described. The overall MainSail property was excellent and well maintained.
This was the first time I have rented where the property was even better in person than in the pictures. The unit was in an ideal location, steps from the beach, close to shopping and restaurants. Very comfortable and the views amazing. Morning coffee on balcony was very relaxing.
The rental company Glass Casa provided easy check in and check out. They were accessible to answer any and all questions.
I would come back in a heartbeat.

Reviewer Comments:
The view, the king size bed and the water pressure were my FAVS!! Everything was as pictured, A/C worked great, the kitchen was fully stocked. The room is located close to the elevator which made our trips to the beach nice, literally steps away!! Loved that you have a close visual of the pool from the balcony. We also took advantage of the grills one night. I can’t say enough great things about our stay. The condo was gorgeous, perfectly decorated and cozy. Would definitely stay again.
With the exception of no washer until Wednesday it was enjoyable. The fact that there were no beach chairs without paying for them was kind of frustrating. Not able to sit in front of reserved spots. Owner should consider beach chairs instead of coupons that are only good for 1 person per visit.
Our first spring getaway since retiring. Property and view were as advertised. Beautiful view of ocean from living room. King bed was comfortable and supportive. Beds are big concern because of my bad back. Place was clean and very orderly. Easy access to beach with showers and a hose to wash off feet and shoes at each walkway. North pool was heated but our use was limited because of weather. Exercise room was clean with a good variety of workout equipment.
Only hitch was that we did not receive actual address of condo village nor door lock code that promised for checkin but easily found location of rental management company which was just a few blocks from property.
Had a great stay!

Reviewer Comments:
This property was absolutely beautiful and we had no complaints during our week stay. I will say the balcony door is tough to get in and out of but thankfully I had my husband to help with that. *** If it's your first time here DEFINITELY ask the lady at the gate to point you in the right direction of building and floor.The building/unit numbering is super confusing if you don't. EXAMPLE- This unit is 243, so you automatically think 2nd floor. Nope 243 stands for building 2, floor 4, unit 3. We helped so many other people while we stayed trying to find their unit because it's confusing but that's nothing against this actual unit but the whole Mainsail property.Overall, we plan to stay here again the unit is so nice and very updated.

Reviewer Comments:
We stayed at Mainsail in unit 243 for 10 days. The unit itself is very nice, the photos are accurate. The proximity to the beach was great, no beach stairs, just a boardwalk directly out to the sand. However, the Mainsail complex itself is rundown and not maintained well. The elevators were filthy and only worked intermittendly and you never knew which one was going to be out that day or night. I have no problem taking the steps up or down but there are times the elevator was needed due to carrying groceries, luggage etc. Overall we had a great vacay, we've been vacationing at Miramar Beach for 15 plus years and thought we'd try a different condo complex. We won't stay at Mainsail again. I will say, the Destin Palms staff was great, we had an AC unit issue when we arrived and they were quick to respond and have the unit repaired within a couple days.
