    a guest from Imperial, MO recommends this vacation rental

    Me and my family go to the Islander every year. Aunts, uncles, cousins, since we were kids. This year was great as well, but the room wasn’t exactly great. I paid for a mid tier room, but this was one of the worst rooms we stayed in. When we got to the room, it had a smell to it, almost as I the cleaning staff tried to use a cleaner to cover it up. After a few days when the cleaner smell wore off, it smelled a little off, not sure what it was. There were also roaches, I’m sure from being right by the trash bins, but regardless, didn’t enjoy that. Other little cosmetic things too, bathroom vanity was old and warped, paint job was terrible, those sorts of things.

    Laura S from Dallas, TX recommends this vacation rental

    Unit 101 is the best location on the property for beach access. We absolutely love it! We have stayed there 15 plus years. However, it needs updates to mattresses, TV's, appliances. We hope every year it will happen, but it hasn't. Our kids are older and need comfortable sleeping arrangements for a week long trip, so we may have to move from our favorite unit for future stays. Again, this is a terrific location.

    a guest from knoxville , TN does not recommend this vacation rental.

    We were very disappointed in the way our unit was furnished. It was really worn with old furniture and in need of several repairs. We notified the front desk of the broken items and they did send maintenance to repair them. I’m not sure why it was rented with towel bars dangling from the walls. The location of the unit did help make up for some of the dinginess. You are definitely the easiest place to load and unload your car and get on and off the beach and to the pools. We would not rent this unit again. We had never stayed there and did not pay enough of attention to their condo ratings. Maggie is awesome at the desk. She goes above and beyond. Having the beach chairs and umbrella included with the unit was really a bonus.

    Stayed at the Islander many times. Location of 101 was very convenient. However the unit was very very dated and the TV (used in Feb during rain) is in desperate need of upgrade compared to other units. We would not stay there again unless the unit was upgraded as we moved to a different units for 2022.

    • Manager Responded on 3/26/2021

      We are so sorry to hear that you did not enjoy unit 101. We appreciate the feedback so we can work to making that unit better for future guests. We are excited that you are coming back to see us.

    We were impressed with the immediate communication upon booking that made our entrance and check in seamless. The unit was exactly as advertised and we enjoyed being able to walk out our unit and just a few steps to the boardwalk to the beach. The kitchen had everything we needed as well. We will definitely consider the Islander again when visiting Destin. Well worth the price we paid for the convenience of the beach, location in Destin, condition of the property.

    a guest from Grandview, TN recommends this vacation rental

    We have been here occasionally over 25 years. Our time spent was Okay. Pricey for 5 nights as it ages. This time ,as in the past, the beach sand literally washed away in 3 days of rain. This location is prone to very Cramped beach area when tides wash away the sand. Very small beach footprint for the amount of traffic the Islander & neighborhood generates. The pools stayed crowded as predicted. Nothing they can do to improve these cramped conditions until the next hurricane wipes it clean again. I’d suggest anyone with children get a ground floor room for expedient access to the beach & pools. The patrolling life guards & roving beach cops were more understanding of the cramped space this time & still kept us from riding the waves. Maybe next year we book late June to avoid storms and washed away sands. Creatures of habit. We will return if prices are kept reasonable for conditions. Cheers!

    • Manager Responded on 6/11/2019

      Hi Ron. Thank you for your feedback. We are hoping to have sand brought in at the end of the summer to help with our beach. We hope to see you again soon!

    Martha B from Indianapolis, IN recommends this vacation rental

    The location of the rental was great. Even though it is on the gulf side, there is really no gulf view because it is so low. We had a few things repaired within the first 24 hours like the directions said to do. The kitchen is quite adequate with supplies. However, the upholstered furniture needs a definite dry cleaning. It was very dirty. Also, the master bath tub cold use some non slip grips in the base of the tub.
