Gulf Views & Steps to the Beach! Great Location ~ 2 Pools/Hot Tubs, 2 Master Bedrooms, Islander 203

Me and my family truly enjoyed our stay. The property was nice and clean and well maintained. We will definitely be booking again in the near future.

The host Sarah Wilson was very helpful with arrival. Great place, wonderful staff and the heated pool and hot tubs were fantastic Lush landscaping, beautiful place to walk in this upscale area.

Really nice property, just as listedgreat location, close to the beach, restaurants, shoppingCheck in was easy

Condo was clean, beds were good. I would stay here again!

Excellent location for shopping and dinning. Fabulous gulf view. Loved that it was only a short 5 minute walk to the beach. Kitchen was a little small and outdated but was adequate. Master bathroom toilet was noisy after flushing and the bathroom sink drained slow. Overall though it was a good experience!

When we arrived and opened the door we were hit in the face with a strong musty mildew smell in the condo. It reminded me of an old wet basement. (My sister also travelled here and stayed on the 5th floor and her room smelled the same. So this isn't just this condo, it's the whole building.)We brought in our luggage and kicked off our shoes only to find sand sticking to our feet. I understand that we are close to the beach, but the room should not have sand on the floor when we first walk in. The kitchen and bathrooms were clean thankfully. At the end of our first day we got into our bed and found sand in the sheets. This was very off putting and worried me that our sheets were not new and clean. They smelled and looked okay but had sand in them. I'm praying it was from maybe the dryer and they weren't shake out propertly. My children were too scared to get under their sheets so they slept on top of the bed with their own blankets. The only other thing i found to be odd was that there was no pizza pan or pizza cutter in the condo. Overall, the condo was okay. The view was not great because it's only on the second level and you can't see the beach, but you can still see the ocean out far. **We did find out that anyone who booked directly with the Islander got daily beach chairs and umbrella included, but since we booked through VRBO we did not get that luxury. It costs 55 per day to rent them.

Perfect location and great communication! Very clean.

My family and I had the best time staying in Sarah and Holly’s condo. We have stayed at The Islander many times before, and this condo in particular has been our favorite… it was nicely decorated and very clean. You’re close to the stairs and garbage chute. It’s a quick walk down to the beach or the pool. We will definitely be staying here again in the future.

The service is great at the Islander; maintenance / housekeeping / administration was always available and friendly. The location is perfect, 2nd floor staring at the ocean, short walk to a private boardwalk to the beach. They're remodeling the complex so it has a fresh coat of paint and new signage, but the update is still going on as of mid-March 2025. There's plenty of parking and easy access to the town for eating / shopping / etc. The condo is clean but dated (could probably use a fresh coat of paint on the inside). You have everything you need to cook in the kitchen, fridge is a good size, but some of the racks inside are starting to rust. The beds and furniture are super comfortable, bathrooms have been updated, but not the shower heads, so there's no real water pressure when showering. Also, bring your own beach towels and consider renting chairs and an umbrella. While there were two chairs and an umbrella in the unit, one chair was broken and the umbrella is very lightweight and doesn't hold up against any ocean breeze. Overall, you cannot beat the location or value in this condo.

Fantastic location on the Destin beaches. Amenities are easy to access, the boardwalk is right there, and the views are spectacular. Condo is well pointed with kitchen utensils and cookware. Would definitely stay there again.

My Family and I had a wonderful time. The condo was clean, well maintained and nicely decorated. We will be booking again in the near future.

This was the perfect stay. The place was just exactly as it was described. The folks were great to work with easy access to the beach would definitely stay again. Can’t say enough great things about this place!

My family had a great stay at this condo.

Loved the location! Way too many throw/ decorative pillows on the beds and on the couch. Also found the dresser counters sticky and with hair. Overall though the location was perfect.

We really enjoyed our most recent vacation to this property. The entire facility was well maintained and had great access to all Destin has to offer. The second-floor unit had great views of the Gulf and was easy to access using the stairs. We will definitely keep this location in mind when we plan future vacations!

Unit was clean and updated. Beds were comfortable. Easy access to beach and pool. Very enjoyable stay.

Our stay was amazing. The location could not be any better for a get away with my husband and our best friends. The condo is cozy and welcoming, although the beds are not comfortable. The process was easy and check in and check out was a breeze! I loved that there were luggage carts to help get bags up to the condo, that made loading and unloading quick and easy. We would definitely stay again.

Short but sweet
