Great location

The condo was clean and well stocked. The furniture was a bit worn out. The coffee maker didn’t work. The walk to the beach is significant. The beach service was excellent. The condo is very conveniently located in Destin near all the best restaurants. We had a great time.

CONDO

Our stay at the condo was AMAZING! It had everything we would need plus some. The location was GREAT as things to do and eat were close in proximity. The beach was a short walk and feeding the turtles in the lake was the icing on the cake. We will def be back!

The townhouse was spotless, the property and pools are kept in pristine condition.

We love staying at this townhouse. It is close to everything we wanted to do and the price was affordable, especially if you split it with others. The property is in pristine condition and the townhouse itself was spotless upon our arrival. The location is heaven on earth since it's the nicest beach I have ever been on. Overall A+ for the money

It was just a short walk to the beach and the pool was right in front of the condo!! There was a BBQ grill and a full kitchen so we were able to cook most meals! It’s very close to great restaurants and a grocery store just across the street!

About the host

Hosted by Pancho Stojov

Host profile image
We've been vacationing in Destin for nearly 40 years and have watched this sleepy little fishing village grow into a world class vacation destination. The one thing that doesn't change are those pristine white sandy beaches that we love and the friendly warmth of the people who live and vacation here. We are passionate about maintaining our townhouse and know that if you stay there you will find it impeccably clean, cozy, inviting, and comfortable.
VIOLET & PANCHO STOJOV OWNERS

Why they chose this property

What sold us on owning our condo was of course the pristine sugar sandy beaches and the community that Southbay by the Gulf is. It really is home for us! We also love the short walking distance to all the shops, restaurants and all activities.
VIOLET & PANCHO STOJOV OWNERS

What makes this property unique

No high rises, elevators, and busy roads to cross.
