⛱️Walk to Beach- Pool- Southbay#88 Townhome☀️

Great location. Literally 1 min walk to beach. House was very clean. Our family had a great time

This place is all about location! 1 minute walk to the pool and a 3 minute walk to the beach. Couldn't ask for a better spot!

Loved the home for the price and location. Only negative was amenities (such as toilet paper, paper towels, soap etc.) were very sparse for a 5 night stay and everything was sort of cheap. I am not expecting luxury items when staying somewhere, but toilet paper being one ply and not providing more than one small bottle of shampoo and no conditioner seemed a bit lacking. Overall, if you don’t mind doing a quick run to target for a few basics, this home was amazing!

Pool was just across the parking lot, it was clean and refreshing. Beach access was close as well. They had a Place to clean off your feet and shower off if needed. You can rent umbrella and chairs. . Washer/Dryer worked great. Clean rooms and beds slept good.

The property is in such a great location for beach access and pool is right across the way... worth the money. & pickleball right next door. My only suggestion is A coat of paint and some updating... the cleanliness was amazing! Much appreciated.... it is cute. The beach access is incredibly close.

Over all stay was great

Our stay at the condo was great. Very clean and the management was very responsive. Just a short walk across the parking lot to the beach and pool, all were very accurately displayed in the photos. We were extremely happy with our stay.

Everything was out dated besides stove, micro, refrigerator. No keurig, old coffee makers. Old panted over walls and decor. Just didn’t fell welcoming or a home away from home feel. Odd smell in all bathrooms. We had to put a towel down at the front door to prevent outside pests from entering we learned from the first night. Only smart tv was in living room and as we know modern times people want to have the ability to get Netflix etc on all TVs in each room. The tvs in all bedrooms was 20” or less.We rotated a box fan each night for a comfortable cool night’s sleep, after 90 degree weather. 48 per day if you wanted an umbrella with 2 beach chairs on the beach. If you brought your own you would have to be behind the paid umbrellas. The access to the beach was good and close depending on what unit you stayed in. Office staff responded quickly with ac issues.

Nice place , need update new tv , the place closer to everything ,!

This way a very nice stay by no means. However i would recommend the owner provide beach chairs for guest or pay for the fees association with having the beach service. During our stay we found a few water bugs near and inside of the property. We notified management during our stay and they were very responsive. The location is very close to pool and beach. I would also recommend the owner to have atleast 10 beach towels to provide for guests especially keeping in mind those who fly into Florida.

It was a nice quiet property when we were there. Short walk to the beach or the pool. Had a great time!

We really enjoyed our stay @ Gulf 88! The townhouse fit our needs perfectly! The beech access was easy and was a great time for my family. I would highly recommend this property! When we come back to Destin in the future, we would definitely book this place again. Thanks!

Close to the beach! Cute place! No beach towels so bring your own!

Loved having a washer and dryer on the first floor and quick customer service. The home was clean and close to the beach and pool as well as everything else. Thank you!

Great location and great property

I’ve stayed in Southbay all my life, but this was the first time I booked through VRBO and RealJoy Vacations. I saw that other condos were available and I thought I would give it a try. I reached out via email with some questions about a week prior to traveling and never heard back. I called about two days prior to ask those questions and the lady on the phone, though doing her job, would not pass along my questions to higher management or the homeowner. We did not receive check in instructions with the property codes and check in times until the day of. This made timing for travel on the day of more difficult. When we arrived at the property, the door was ajar and music was playing loudly. This made us feel a little unsafe. My husband had to walk in to make sure everything was okay. The company was also very inflexible about the check in and check out times even though there were no reservations before or after ours shown online. We have booked at Southbay through other companies previously and they were more willing to accommodate where possible. Additionally, we found a cockroach in the kitchen and the beds were like sleeping on concrete. I slept better on the beach and looked forward to getting back to my own bed. The exhaust fan in the master bathroom sounded like it was on its last leg. I will be staying again at Southbay but not with this company or homeowner.
