So much better than I anticipated

We went for a whole month. We have went to Florida for years but the first time in this area. It is perfect. Beautiful and laid back. The condo had the perfect view. It was exactly as pictured. It was very clean!! Never saw one bug! Very quiet, beds were very comfortable. Kitchen was well stocked with everything we needed. Could use some updating but definitely easy to overlook!

Awesome Stay

The condo had the most beautiful views of the beach. It was big enough for our family of 4, close enough to Destin to easily be able to go do things there, but far enough away we didn’t have all the traffic. We will be back for future vacations! The washer and dryer are noisy, but we made it work!

Perfect for listening to the waves for days

Loved the patio and view of the ocean! The condo was cute and cozy. We had an issue with the freezer leaking water into the fridge but we didn't let it ruin out stay-cation.

Great place!

Very clean. Right on the beach. Amazing views! Wouldn’t recommend for this looking to use the pool because the pool is in the parking lot not overlooking the beach. But for those more interested in the beach, this place is A+++!

Peaceful

I booked this condo for a girls weekend, and it was the perfect place to stay. The condo was clean and had room for everyone. The view was spectacular and the large balcony was a plus. I do recommend bringing baking sheets from home, but otherwise the condo provided all the amenities you might need. We would definitely stay here again.

Wonderful unit

This unit is ocean front. The condo itself was pretty quiet. We did have some issues with the unit which I communicated with RealJoy to be addressed after we checked out. I appreciated the numerous texts and emails from RealJoy which made the check in/out process very simple. We will definitely book the unit we stayed in again. We had a wonderful vacation.

Enjoyed our stay. The best part is being able to hear the ocean from your bed. Room is a little dated but clean. Elevator at the Property was the only thing that kept breaking but its only 3 floors so not a deal breaker. Overall good value.

Needs updating

It served the purpose. Shower and bed. It looks as if it has original furnishings from 1980. Very much needs updating ! Washer, dryer and dishwasher were so loud you could hardly hear TV ( which was a 32" in main living:( ) Great view and large balcony were the pluses.

I was disappointed in a couple of things, the couch and chairs in living room were not comfortable, and the remote in second bedroom didn't work properly , couldn't change channels , and i could never get the one in living room to come on, but the one in master bedroom worked fine. We loved the balcony and the view was amazing!!

Good Condo… except for two of the three beds…

The condo is decent for what we paid. However, if you’re looking for comfort when sleeping, the king bed in the primary bedroom is WORN OUT. Although it has a mattress topper, you can feel the deep indentations, and sagging on one side (maybe because the mattress has been turned to accommodate the poor shape of the mattress?), but it is terribly uncomfortable. In the bedroom with two queen beds, one of the bed’s bedframe appears to be attached to the headboard INCORRECTLY as it tilts forward when you sit on the end of the bed and the mattress and boxprings pop up, also making it uncomfortable). I detest leaving bad reviews and I share this one in hopes that the owners will find a way to soon replace the bad beds/mattresses because we would like to return again—this was our second year in a row and knew the beds were an issue the year before, but we thought we could deal with it… Sadly, we are not interested in TRYING to sleep during what is supposed to be a relaxing vacation, so we do not plan to return until bed(s) are replaced and/or repaired because it was just too uncomfortable. The condo is decent otherwise and very clean.

Overall, the property was great. The condo overall is clean, but the couch needs to be replaced or deep cleaned as well as the two chairs in the living room. The carpet in the bedroom needs a good cleaning. But we really enjoyed our stay!

Summary of stay

We feel the property was misrepresented. We were totally disappointed when we walked in the door. Had multiple issues with the unit. We felt like there had been no “inspection “ of the unit prior to us checking in. I have a list of at least 12 different issues, which MOST of them were taken care of,
