If you are near Miramar Beach, the snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Dolphin Reef, deployed in 2017. Located just 685 feet straight out from the Miramar Regional Public Beach access (by Pompano Joe's), it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Dolphin Reef is at a depth of 12-20 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

    Overall the stay at the location was okay. They view was by far the best part of the stay which was amazing and breathtaking everytime I stepped out to look at it. The communication with the property manager was great and check in and out were super easy. The majority of the house was clean but getting in to the shower with used soap bars still in there was a major turn off. Our problems were with the obvious damage scattered throughout the house with ceiling fans that we were scared to use with blades sagging and terrible noises, Obvious water damage throughout the house, bed in the master was like sleeping in a hammock, we ended up sleeping on the floor, and a broken kitchen light. We understood that the downstairs unit was seperate from the upstairs when we rented the place but once we went to bed and locked our unit our kids that were staying downstairs were unable to access the upstairs due to all the gates between the units being locked and no keypad access to the upstairs back door. What really put a damper on the stay was the buildings weird rule about no tents on the beach. We watched another guest use their tent all week but when we set ours up we were immediately asked to take it down and umbrellas only. So if you're going to spend the money for a beach front unit I recommend shop somewhere else until the owner fixes the unit and updates the furniture. Also the kitchen is extremely understocked. Bring your own cooking supplies and kitchen knife.

    This beach Condo was the perfect place for me and our group of girl friends to stay! It was right off the beach, private beach if that.. the house was clean and roomy! We had no issues checking in, no issues during at all! The only thing I would say as someone who likes soft beds is there is 1 soft bed in the house it is the upstairs full bed. If you like soft beds claim that bed first!! The rest if them are a little to hard for me but most of my friends didn’t mind! 100% will be booking here in the future with my family!

    First off there is THREE LEVELS! When you walk in the front door you go into the living room and kitchen or straight upstairs. If you want to go downstairs you have to go outside and down quite a few stairs to get to the down stairs. From the time we checked in the place smelt like mildew. All dishes were dirty upon arrival.had to wash all of the dishes. Upon arrival this place was absolutely disgusting. Our first night I spent $50 in cleaning supplies to clean the entire place. It was awful, my husband moved the couch up to plug something in and there was French fries and gold fish everywhere. Got ready to make dinner and there was only ONE skillet and it was RUSTED! I called and the property manager did get me a new one sent out same day along with a new coffee pot because the one we had was also extremely rusted. Dishwasher was falling apart. The whole place overall just felt so nasty. Not to mention the furniture had an awful smell. The unit has a washer and dryer but the washer is full of mold, tried bleaching it out. We were eating dinner one night and my sister sat down in a chair and the front leg almost fell off. DOWNSTAIRS! Complete FIRE HAZARD! No plug ins worked in the down stairs bedroom. My sister followed the cords from the tv that was working and it was Attached to not only one but two extension cords which then led to them being plugged in outside. My 87 year old grandmother fell through the chairs outside. The chairs were dry rotted. I couldn’t go on.

    My family and I have been going to Destin for 20+ years for our annual family vacation. The location is wonderful. Beautiful beaches and centrally located. This time was different- our neighbors were not kind. We were unloading our cars upon arrival, our oldest son parked in the wrong space. No one was in that unit, and he moved once he realized it, but they had already called to report us. Next a.m., I spoke to the lady and asked if we were in her space (we weren’t) bc she seemed irritated. She explained that she was friends of the owner and had been coming for 30 years. For 10 minutes she proceeded to tell me all the things that guests were doing wrong. Even went as far as telling me which guests are “too old” to drink and party. She said people don’t know how to read signs and we were allotted 15 feet of beach IN FRONT of our rental only. I told her we didn’t want trouble. She didn’t speak to us again. They would stand on the balcony and monitor. Their behavior was rude and uncalled for because we minded our business and let our kids play baseball, swim and fish. Once the owner arrived, they proceeded to tell him what trouble we’d been since we got there, not realizing my brother and nephew could hear. This is listed as kid friendly, but it was clear from the start they did not want neighbors of any kind. In all our years, we have never experienced this type of behavior. We will not be using this rental in the future. (There is more, but I only had 1500 characters)

    The photos are clearly several years (at least) old when the property was first fixed up. It could use some updating and replacing of things for sure. But you just can’t beat the views and the closeness to the PRIVATE beach. Lovely.
