Our family had a great time during our stay. The location was perfect and the house was right on the beach. The house is well equipped and great for a large group or family. Parking is not ideal, especially during busy season.

This was the most wonderful VRBO stay I've had to date. The location was perfect and exactly as described. Any issues we had were minor and were immediately addressed by the property company, AvantStay. Their communication is miles above everyone else. Thank you for such a positive experience.

Second time booking here

Location is perfect for our family with small kids. We don’t have to walk across street or carry everything down to beach. It’s easy to walk right back up indoors to grab whatever you need. It’s quiet at night which is also relaxing and keeps our little ones from waking up. The lower level back porches need to be updated because the steps & wood in general are old/warped. Otherwise, it is a great spot.

Baby Birds Flying The Nest

This was an excellent location for our family to have a long weekend together. Our children are starting their adventures into adulthood and we wanted to make sure we have a family vacation before they get too busy for us. Life makes us busy… we would love to come back one day, hopefully with a growing family.

Location to the beach A+

The checkin process and communication with AvantStay was excellent. The access to the beach was easy and convenient. Plus not crowded as it is in a private beach area. The house was as stated. I would say there are a few items that were not up to par. The parking, truly only room for 2 cars and not SUV's. The decking and outside stairs are in need of repair. The deck is rotting and there are nail neads that stick up. The grills were not great, we did not use them as they are dirty and old, the grease under the grills was gross. Overall, we had a great trip, but disappointed in the items mentioned.

Great location!

We enjoyed our stay. We had no issues and the property was clean and no bugs. Be advised the lower level stairs are very slippery when wet. We loved the location and had no problem with being crowded on the beaches or anyone setting up in front of us. The king primary bed was very comfortable. The pull outs for the teens were not comfortable but they made it work. The shower pressure was great and we had plenty of hot water for all 10 to shower. We stayed nice and cool the entire time but extra fans were nice.

Great place

Was a great place to stay. The only thing I’d say is that it could’ve been cleaned better. There was sand in the area rugs that clearly weren’t swept and if so not with a sweeper. Also the floors were cruddy. Dog hair from the last guest. I Had to wash my feet off before going to bed cause my feet got so dirty from the dirty floors. All I could find was a broom and dust pan to clean with. No sweeper or mop.

Can't beat the location!

We've stayed in Destin both during the summer & in October several times over the years. This was our first time staying in a condo on the beach, and it was great. Being only steps from the beach is a big plus, and even though there were more people on the beach than expected, we never felt crowded. Also, we were able to walk to Pompano Joe's, one of our favorite restaurants in Destin. The property itself was fine, plenty of room for just me & my wife & our dogs. Allowing dogs was what sealed the deal. Our only complaint was we paid for beach gear to be delivered because none was listed in the amenities for the property, then we arrived only to find a lot of beach gear available from the owner. So, we spent money unnecessarily. I regret that I did not contact AvantStay about this before we ordered the gear. Our communication with AvantStay was pleasant & painless. Anyway, everything else was great. Glad we went & hope to be able to return next year.

Right on the Beach

This townhouse is right on the beach. You step off your deck onto the beach. You don’t have to walk through a big condo complex or even use an elevator. Because you can just step out of your unit into the sand. This unit is very large. Lots of levels to spread out. The stairs in the unit are a little steep (warning if you have knee issues). Each level has gorgeous views and amazing balconies. One thing that this unit offers (that many other rentals don’t offer), is lots of supplies that you may need. They even supply you with shampoo and conditioner. We enjoyed our stay here and would love to book this place again.

WONDERFUL VACATION RENTAL!!!

My husband and I stayed here with our daughter's family. The townhouse was the perfect setup for us. We took the lower level which consists of a large bedroom, full bath and kitchenette / living room combo. Our daughter's family took the 2 upstairs bedrooms / bathrooms and we shared the main floor living room / kitchen. The unit was well appointed and had everything we needed. It's been beautifully updated. We've stayed in a few of the Sanddolllar units in the past and this one ranks at the top. It was very nice to arrive and there be plenty of "necessities" there already (not the case with other units we've stayed in) such as toilet paper, paper towels, soap, shampoo & body wash, dishwasher soap, detergent etc. I highly recommend this unit. The location is fabulous. My only criticism would be the decking needs some attention, particularly the lowest level and the couch could use a cleaning.
