    Condo 204 is amazing!! We stayed in this unit in 2019 also. It has been updated throughout.
    204 had exactly what we were looking for: a king sized bed, 2 twin beds, ceiling fans in both bedrooms, a large walk-in shower, and a washer/dryer.
    There are televisions in the living room and both bedrooms.
    The balcony provides a beautiful view.
    It is a short walk to the beach. Chairs and an umbrella provided by the condo make a day at the beach very relaxing!
    We had a wonderful vacation!! Without a hesitation, I would highly recommend Condo 204!!

    Need to fix the 2nd elevator. Glad we were on the 2nd floor, because we were able to use the stairs. It looks like Management forgot to give me my loyal customer discount though. I have been going to Islander for over 30 years.

    • Manager Responded on 8/18/2023

      Thank you for submitting your feedback ! We are happy to let you know that we did get the elevator fixed. We have been working very hard to make sure we get this done so that we do not inconvenience our guests. As far as the loyalty discount, this is not something that we automatically apply to your reservation. The loyalty discount has to be mentioned so that we can apply it. We look forward to having you as a guest in the future.

    It was great except for the last night when our air conditioner turned off completely and the thermostat wouldn't come on. We checked it and it no longer had a battery in the thermostat. Not real sure why that happened. But our last evening through night until checkout at 10am, it was pretty hot in our unit.

    We stayed in the same unit the previous year and really liked it. Was a bit disappointed that the dishwasher was not working during the entire stay and the sleeper sofa was also broke or not functioning correctly. But in general, we are always pleased with the Islander and the facilities. Despite the recent issues, we would and do recommend the Islander to anyone interested in traveling to Destin. This is our 8th or 9th time staying at the Islander.

    Tiffany L from Burleson, TX recommends this vacation rental

    Unit 204 was very nice. We truly enjoyed our stay. Upon arrival, the u it was very clean and had everything we needed. The master bed was a little hard for our likely, but definitely not a deal breaker. I like the split beds in the other room, so the kids had their own space. We enjoyed the view from the balcony. Very short walk to the beach. The chairs and umbrella were convenient to have while at the beach. I just wish there was showers closer to the beach exit path to rinse off the sand. We used the ones by the pool. I liked the location as it was kind of off the side from all the traffic on 98. However, I wish there were more food places close by vs having to drive up to 98. Not that 98 is super far, just surprised no one has opened a small coffee shop or cafe on this little strip. Overall, great stay and very accommodating. We were pleasantly surprised at how nice it was.

    My family and I love the Islander and have come back here to stay at least 8 times. We stayed in this same unit 2 years ago. I think this unit could use some upgrades to be considered a platinum rental. The mattresses are not comfortable and the rug in the dining room was heavily stained. Also we had trouble with the flapper in the master bedroom toilet. But we love the location and we love the Islander. We will be back. Hopefully this particular unit has some upgrades.

    This was a beautiful updated cabin. Very comfortable and clean. Huge tv in the living room, and tv’s in both bedrooms. Beautiful walk-in shower in the LARGE master bathroom. The beach was just a short walk from the condo. Large balcony was big enough for a layout chair and table with chairs. This cabin was in a GREAT location, surrounded by so many good restaurants and shops.

    a guest from St. Peters, MO recommends this vacation rental

    We have been coming to Destin for our family vacation for the last 10 years. The last 6 we have stayed at the Islander. We love the location, and staying on the 2nd floor this time was very nice, we just used the stairs instead of waiting on the elevator and it was a shorter walk to the pool and beach access. The condo was nice and comfortable, the folding pantry doors fell off the track and right on my husbands foot though. And we weren't big fans of having to use the room key for beach access. That is inconvenient with 6 people staying in the condo and all going in different directions. But we will be back!

    • Manager Responded on 6/9/2019

      Hi Rebecca. Thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately, we had to go to room keys to keep the codes from being shared with non-guests. But we are so glad you enjoyed your stay and can't wait to see you again!

    a guest from Louisville, KY recommends this vacation rental

    This particular condo was very clean, updated and was perfect from a loading/unloading. It is high enough to see the ocean, pool, hot tub. The 4th floor and it’s closeness to the steps was convenient for the grocery trips. This condo was more updated than some of the other ones that our friends stayed in. We loved finding the board games and cards that were equipped in the condo. If there was one thing we could use more of, it was storage containers or at least bigger bowls. I did lots of cooking for dinner versus going out so I didn’t have much to use for leftovers. Overall, the stay was great and would recommend it to anyone.
    As for the property management, or front desk, their could have been better communication. The contract says check in is 3pm. We arrived at 3pm and were told that it could be up to 5pm before we got into our condo. The communication is misleading and should be more spelled out to guests. The policy is that you are charged immediately after 10am checkout. I think that if check in is this late, then you shouldn’t have to pay full price for that day/night.

    • Manager Responded on 4/22/2019

      Maria, Thank you for your feedback regarding the unit. We will ask the owner to purchase more Tupperware for the unit. With regards to the check in time, you checked in at 4:12 pm. The rental confirmation that was sent to you states: Check in time is after 3:00 pm. Due to our high standards of cleanliness, not all units may be ready for check in promptly at 3:00 pm but we guarantee it will be ready before 5:00 pm. We ask for your patience and recommend you have alternate plans in the event your unit is not ready at 3 pm. You are welcome to use the pools or go to the beach while you wait. With regards to departure time, we show that you checked out at 7:55 am. Did you request a late departure with the Front Desk? Your unit was not rented for the next night, so we would have allowed a noon departure free of charge. Please let us know if you have any additional questions. We hope you choose the Islander again for your next vacation. Thank you!
