Surf Shack A

Great stay at a great location. Hot tub was awesome since there aren’t many in Destin. Property was very clean and the host was incredible. Host offered to drop a package off to property (contacts were forgotten at home). Only thing that could be better (and this goes for most properties like this) is that the code for entry is pretty long and takes time to memorize and has to be entered every time to enter the property.

Wonderful!!

We booked this condo last minute and it was amazing! We walked into a nicely coolded place with music was playing. The condo spelled good and was spotless! It had everything we needed and even beach views from the back patio. The beach access was just across the street and was an easy walk. Would totally stay again in the future!

Top Notch Accommodations!

Everything about this property was just as described. This was our 4th year in a row staying in the Grand Caribbean condo complex and this unit outshined the others we stayed at. My wife and I were here 10 days and hopefully will be able to return to this same unit on our next trip to Destin. The unit included all the essentials needed as well as ample supply of extras. Upon checkin we discovered an electrical outlet not functioning but with one simple call to management it was quickly repaired. The condo has an extra large covered porch where we enjoyed our breakfast every morning with a direct view of the ocean. Couldn't have asked for a better experience.
