Steps to Beach-FAB Lagoon Pool-Hot Tub-Beach Trolley-6BR Serenity

Destin was a great location for a family trip!! The beach was beautiful but the area the shuttle drops you off at is very small so you have to get there early to set up unless you want to be packed in like sardines. The other alternative is walking half a mile either way with all your gear due to the roped off areas that belong to hotel guests. The house was nice but it is 3 stories. One of the queen beds upstairs was broken the entire time and we kept having to fix it. The king bed on the 2nd floor and the queen bed with the pullout chair on the top were comfortable, other than that all the beds were hard and uncomfortable. The king bedroom on the main floor was very hot the entire week. We had a box fan that we used trying to circulate air.The ac unit upstairs quit working (management was very responsive getting someone out to take a look and fix the issue which was great). The fridge had an ice maker that would not make ice regularly so we had to buy multiple bags of ice. The propane grill did not work correctly so we had to go buy a small charcoal grill quickly to finish grilling (midway through cooking). The pool was nice. Make sure you keep up with the wristbands. Apparently they charge you 50 if you lose one. The beach is not steps away, it is a 10 minute walk which is fine and they have the shuttle running from 10-4:15 for pick up and drop off which was nice. Overall decent stay but house could be cleaner.

We had everything we needed to cook for a group of 12 and had all the basic necessities during our stay. The house was walking distance from the beach.

The parking details states 3 cars plus 1 additional and the house only has parking comfortable for 2 cars. No oven mitts in the kitchen which was odd. Inconsistent warm water in showers. Overall the place was as described with small issues. Nice, kid friendly neighborhood with short walk to beach. Nice pool.

House was ok. Large enough for all family members. Single bed still broke. House is fine, nothing special slightly dated. Great location

Great location ,very nice pool and the ride to and from the beach was excellent!!! We will stay again.

Thank you so much Realjoy Vacations my family and I really enjoyed our stay with you guys. The beach was a 3 minute drive, the community pool was a 2 minute walk, and right off the main strip. Very much a convenient stay! I will be renting and staying at the same property again.

The property was very beautiful and well kept. The walk to the beach was great.

I have stayed at a lot of different places over the years at the beach and this was the worst one I have encountered. The gated community is not gated other than a guard rail that came down in front of your car and it was broken and not functioning most of our stay. The rental was not clean and very run down. We could not even use the twin bedroom because one bed was broken and you would roll off it while trying to sleep. The beds were not comfortable at all. The 2nd floor toilet handle would get stuck and run if you didn’t jiggle the handle. The kitchen cabinets were in rough condition with the coating peeling off them. The blinds on the windows were broken and with a broken bar stool that was too dangerous to sit in and needs thrown away. The coffee pot was a cheap $10 unit. We cooked in the room one night and found dirty cookware that we had to wash before use and not very many to choose from. Not well equipped in the kitchen area at all. The property grounds had trash all in the yard and along the road going into village. When we contacted the property manager about the bed they came out but worked on the bunk beds instead of the twin bed which is not what I told them when they called. Called them back the next day but never heard from them again the rest of weekend. Very ooor service!!

The property was great. There were a couple adjustments that need to be done. 2 bar stools were wobbly and need to be replaced, not sure if that has ever been an issue before. The kitchen sink would not shut off properly, maintenance man did come out, but had to get approval from owner first to replace. The dryer did not work properly, so we could only wash a couple loads of laundry. I would recommend to the future guests, make sure you only have 3 cars. The overflow parking isn't the best and it's a pain to get a spot if you can't find one the first day. 3 cars will fit in the driveway, but it is a little tight. Other than the couple minor issues every thing else was great, only about 3 blocks to the Beach and great pool for the family and kids.

Our first thought was this property was far from the beach, but turns out the walk was not too bad. The stay was satisfactory and the location was great. Close to the SunPass exit/enter, and close to showing centers. The parking is a little tricky on the first day but after that it wasn't to bad. Would stay again.
