The Islander 715 | Stunning Panoramic Gulf & Harbor Views | Newly Updated

First time vacation to Destin, FL. Likes the private parking area and private access to the beach. Enjoyed the amenities like the pool, hot tub, and outside recreation area.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our room was clean as always. It was not stocked well this year. No spatulas, strainer or measuring cups. We cook a lot because we like to stay in so a well stocked kitchen is a must! We left out complaints with the front desk because it was all minor stuff that can easily be fixed. We were told we were getting a discount that we never received but hopefully it was just a mistake. Overall we love it here and will come back!

I sent 3 messages to the host prior to check-in with no response. That was the first red flag. The entire time we were there only one of the two elevators was operable. At one point neither was working and we had my 83 year old mother with us and this condo was on the 7th floor. The bathrooms are in need of updates. At one point the entry gate into the property wasn't working. This is the first time I've stayed in a property that I wouldn't rebook or recommend to others. Very disappointing!

This property yard crew does an AMAZING job on the upkeep. The grass looked great along with the amenities. I was very impressed on the cleanliness of the property as well. The room we had (715) didn’t have the view we were exactly expecting, but it didn’t take away from the time we had. The staff was very helpful & treated us with the utmost respect. I would definitely recommend anyone to check out this condo.

Very relaxing trip. The master bed was Very comfortable. Could use a little updating on bed pillows and carpet. Had everything we need. Overall a great trip.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Room was clean as always. Grounds are well kept. Our 7th floor balcony was closed all but 2 of our 5 nites there. We are on the top floor so this is the best part of our room. The view from the balcony, sitting on the balcony, putting our wet towels and suits on the balcony, having a place to put our sand toys. We were informed of the construction at 11:30 am the day we checked in by email. We were not informed of our balcony closure until we got into our room. The staff was very apologetic and offered us a 20% discount on our stay. It was appreciated. Otherwise it’s a great place to stay.

Everything was as described. It was a very short walk to the beach; Allen was very nice, eager to help with chairs and umbrella. There are only two elevators, wait time was typically 1-3 minutes, walk from elevator to room was on an outdoor balcony; thankfully it didn’t rain. Front desk staff were polite and helpful. Since it was a coin laundry room instead of in room washer/dryer, we brought towels from home to use for the bulk of the trip and since linen exchange days were so far apart (not sure if it included towels) and out of fear of being charged for possible stains to linens/towels not that it was anticipated though. Master bath and bedroom was very spacious with a quiet and comfortable bed; 2nd bedroom had noisier beds, headboard sounded like it moved when changing positions in bed. Overall, very relaxing, true to description, clean, and would stay again.

This was our first VRBO experience and it was perfect! The condo was just as described! The best selling point was the twin beds in the second room. We had privacy for ourselves and the girls had their own beds! Could have easily slept another person or 2 on the couches. Beach was nearby and amenities are beautifully maintained!

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We have stayed at the Islander Resort for Many Years. We have had perfect visits every time except two. One year the bed was a slab of concrete (717). And now, this year we walked in on 5 dead roaches. Glad they were dead and we did not see others. SO, if that is all I can say bad, then The Islander Resort gets high marks. Yes, we would return! So you know, the staff was very concerned about our experience! Good people! We love the property and location!
