A few things off

The condo was clean. We were never able to connect to the Wi-Fi. The cold water in the kitchen didn’t work, nor did the ice maker. The patio furniture was quite lacking.

Wonderful location....BUT

Love the location and the beach was beautiful. It was a nice big condo plenty of room for six adults. However, one bathroom overflowed and didn't work well the whole stay. Also, the icemaker DID NOT make ice. Living room recliners were broken. Other than those issues we DID enjoy our stay. Maybe these issues will be resolved soon.

Great Condo that needs TLC

There is carpet in the living room and bedrooms…the carpet had stains which look gross. Two of the bathrooms had recessed light fixtures that were hanging. One of the bathrooms had mildew and mold. The drywall by the balcony door was crumbling off. The bottom shelf on the refrigerator door was cracked and unusable. There was a piece of food under the loveseat. The floor to ceiling mirror on the wall in the entrance area was cracked and taped. Just a good amount of little things that need to be fixed and cleaned. Once you get over that stuff, the condo was fine. The layout is good and the overall property is a great place to stay.

Our view was beautiful but…

Great location, beautiful view and it’s a big corner unit! It was great that each bdrm has its own bathroom. However, as soon as you walk in you can smell mold. Which caused us stuffy noses every morning. The middle shower is cover in mold (ceiling and the tile grout).That same shower was not cleaned properly.It had long black hairs on the shower walls and drain was full of the same black hair from previous guest. In the back bathroom there was a used washcloth that was left from previous owner. Disgusting!We also had a hard time getting dishwasher to work.After slamming the door it locked and we’re able to use it. It would also be a good idea to bring your own TP(what they provide is harsh). I think the unit could use some updates and a better cleaning person.

Beautiful Views, Great Vacation

Overall we loved this condo. The kitchen, washer/dryer, appliances, spaciousness and comfort of living areas were better than we expected. We loved the ease of entering upon arrival and the easy access to the beach, the elevators were conveniently located, the pool area more than adequate and well maintained. There are however a few things for the owners to address— hopefully before we plan another vacation in Destin. The king size bed in the master bedroom needs to be replaced. It was very soft and sunk in a bit in the middle. I slept well the entire week but my husband struggled with it and said he would definitely come back to this unit if they replaced the mattress. A couple of things for the owners awareness... the master bath toilet runs frequently, though we weren't inconvenienced by it. My husband tried to fix it but couldn't. The reclining loveseat was broken, which meant not using them as recliners. Also, the curtains, (or rather the hanging mechanisms) are broken in various places so it all looks odd when closed. Oh, and the wifi was weak and kept dropping. Thank you for such an enjoyable vacation.

Nice Location -- Not a Very Clean Unit

This property is managed by Vacasa. The pictures are very misleading. The unit was a good size in a good location, but it was nasty. The carpet had multiple stains in most rooms. Grout in one of the tiled showers was covered in mold. There was a half-consumed water bottle and old hairband on the floor in the master when we got there. There was a balled up dirty blanket on the shelf in the master closet. There was a dirty towel under one of the beds in a secondary bedroom. There were Fruit Loops on the floor in the dining area covered in ants. The sliding glass door to the balcony was so dirty, it was difficult to see out of it. There was a rocking recliner that was broken. When I sat down on it, it flipped backward landing me on my back. Six inches closer to the sliding glass door, and I would have cracked the glass. The couch was so worn, the cushions kept sliding off of it. An outlet in the master and at least 2 outlets in the living room were not working. No remotes worked on the TV in the master, and only played ABC. The TV in the living room was damaged and had a green vertical line from top to bottom. There was a chair on the balcony so damaged, no one could sit on it without it falling over. We were only there for a few days. We chose to clean what we could and avoid the broken furniture. However, we will never rent another property managed by Vacasa.

Beware

This condo is very dated and could use some updates but we could live with those. It was the issue of our A/C not working and not able to use balcony while there and not being able to sit in front of the ocean and bring our own canopy and chairs as we always have in past that had us really frustrated. We got into our condo at 4pm on Sunday and the A/C was set to 65 and it was 74 degrees in condo. It was really warm and we were sweating in condo. Contacted management at 4:30pm and they stated they had already put in about A/C not working, I guess it wasn’t working prior to our arrival. Someone came out Sunday night but said they would come back tomorrow to put Freon in it. Well the following day, I asked 2 different times for updates bc it was 76 in the room and hot. They said they would give me updates. Tuesday morning I messaged management again and she said someone came out yesterday and I said that it only got down to 71 overnight and it was raising in Temperature as we spoke. She asked if I wanted someone to come back out, I said yes. Wednesday night was our last night and someone came by at 8pm as we were packing and did something and overnight it got down to 68. When we got up to leave Thursday morning it had finally been fixed our last night. We asked about balcony the first day and was told the following day that the whole week they were working on our balconies and we couldn’t use them. We were given $ compensation for that and was pleased. No one understood why the condos would do the maintenance during peak summer season. We have been going to beaches yearly and we always bring our canopy and beach chairs to sit at the beach and enjoy our time. This year when we booked condo, no where on property listing does it say that HOA does not allow any private canopies, tents or umbrellas. It wasn’t until 7 days out that the company sent us our arrival instructions did it say this. I think this is outrageous and not truthful bc they know your not gonna cancel 7 days out bc you don’t get any money back. HOA is controlling this bc they can charge you to use their umbrellas and chairs. Then when we arrived and went down first morning, we find out that people come in on days prior and reserve the whole front roll out of 3 rolls and so you are stuck in the 2nd or 3rd roll. If any come available then you can be moved up. So we got stuck on the 2nd roll and the first day from 9-11 am out of 27 umbrellas and 54 chairs there was 1 person sitting in the front roll. Those that reserved weren’t even coming down to beach and we had to sit in 2nd row and had to look through empty chairs at the water. There was no more than 16 people out of 54 chairs most of the time on front roll for 2 days on the beach. It should not be assigned seating. Those that come to beach first and have paid for a umbrella and chairs should get to chose what’s available instead of having empty chairs and umbrellas. We have gone to other states to beaches and this year we tried Destin after several years of not being their. We will not be back. We will find elsewhere to go from now on.

Alternate vacation site

We were originally headed to Marathon to a house but hurricane Ian left it in need of repair so we scrambled, 24 hours before we were to leave Ohio, to find another place to stay. The condo is HUGE but in dire need of substantial cleaning and repairs. I’d NEVER stay in 506 again unless it has undergone thorough cleaning and repairs. Beautiful location. Beautiful building. Just this unit was not worth what we paid.

Misleading pictures/ Vrbo sells reservations

Location and size was the only plus. We could not access balcony. Carpet soaking for about 3 days from a recent leak. Vrbo was not helpful at all, our reservation was given to Vacasa. Vacasa was aware and couldn't get anyone out until monday afternoon. No blinds in 1 room, which faces directly to condos next door. So you couldn't change in that room, especially having young girls, it wasn't very safe. Den windows towards ocean, obstructed with white film. Living room curtains look exactly like pictures, still falling. No attention has been put into that condo. Vascasa did try to move us, to a 2 bedroom, no beach access, which this is a 3 bedroom, 3 bath. They do not have many options to choose from, especially from 1 day to the next. Their options also included, moving to 1 condo and then another, making it 2-3 moves, when we were there only 4 days. Vrbo did not help to try and correct the problem, they just transfer you back to vacasa. I do not recommend Vrbo. Make sure you're aware, they sell your reservations, which limits your options in situations like this.
