"Contemporary Coastal Escape: Updated 12th-Floor 2-Bedroom Condo in Beachside One!" at Sandestin Golf and Beach Resort!

We enjoyed our fall break vacation! Everything was perfect!

We stayed in this unit for a week recently. The number one pro in staying here is the on-beach location. The view from the balcony was great, and there are enough furnishings on it and space to dine or relax. Easy walk right out to the elevator nearby and down to the beach and pool. Stretch of beach had plenty of chairs and umbrellas to rent (the unit did not have its own for use) and a security guard on staff. The unit itself was comfortable and mostly well-appointed. The property is part of a major resort with lots of amenities, but we really didn’t take advantage of any of them so I can’t speak to that. We did walk to the mini-golf course on the other side of the parking lot and play a round, cost isn’t included but it’s not too pricy. When they say bring your own stuff they mean it. There were no leftover condiments or paper products like you might find in other vacation rentals. First trip to the store we bought paper towels, dish soap, trash bags, coffee filters, etc. along with every food we’d need to cook with and eat. I don’t mind that, we can use the leftovers back home. But I didn’t expect to have no kitchen sponge, kitchen towels, or oven mitts. That would be helpful. The bed in the master bedroom desperately needs replacing. The side I slept on had lost its structure. The floors could have been cleaner when we came in. I know it’s hard in a beach condo, but they really did need a good mopping. There is a vacuum and broom to handle sand you track in. One thing about Sandestin itself is that it’s not really near Destin Harbor where many of the fishing and boating stuff happens, and the traffic between can be awful. There’s plenty of shopping and restaurants nearby, and we appreciated the not-as-crowded feel of the Miramar Beach area, but factor in drive time if you plan on going to the harbor often. Overall, the property worked very well for a week with four adults. Large enough for us to spread out, kitchen outfitted well enough to cook all our dinners, and the right kind of beach front location that made it easy for us to come and go from beach and pool as we wished.

My family had a wonderful time at the Sandestin resort. We were in Beach Tower 1 and the location was perfect. The property was beautiful and our condo was very clean and comfortable. The ocean views were amazing. Comfortable beds, and it was very clean. We had an issue with the dryer and microwave and the staff handle it very quickly. We will stay here again for sure!

Been coming to Destin or Orange Beach area for 20 years, at least annually. This was the WORST property we've stayed in. Floors were filthy: after 5 minutes barefooted, bottom of our feet were black. Bed in Master BR was horrible. I'M 6'3" / 205; when I sat on edge of bed, it sank at least a foot and the rest of the bed was same to lay in it. Kitchen lights flickered constantly. No instructions or information regarding the unit's amenities, ie., beach chair rentals, etc Washing machine door would not open, could not wash clothes. Otherwise, great location, great view.
