  a guest from St Louis, MO recommends this vacation rental

  We have been traveling to Destin for over 40 years. Holiday Isle and the Islander have always been a favorite of ours, especially when the kids were young. The staff is always friendly and accommodating and the grounds and common areas are kept clean. It was the first time we rented Unit 208 and, to be honest, we would not rent this unit again unless attention was given to the bathrooms. Both baths are very worn and mold was detectable in both tubs/showers. Also, the carpet is quite worn and the bed linens were as well. The kitchen has been updated and is very nice. We spent most of our time on the beach which is absolutely gorgeous.

  Furniture is pretty, very uncomfortable to sleep on. Recommend plastic containers for guest who are traveling by air. Too many dishes in pantry area. Had no room for groceries. These are a few suggestions.

  Ashley B from Middletown, OH recommends this vacation rental

  This is the second time we have stayed in 208. Condo was clean, great location, close walk to the beach (across a parking lot driveway and over a bridge). Love the private access into the condo and onto the beach. Have always felt very safe and secure. The pool area is always clean with great chairs. Love that two beach chairs and an umbrella are included. Kitchen was stocked well with everything we needed. Also appreciate having a few things on hand to get us started, ie paper towels, trash bags, TP. Condo staff have always been very friendly but we haven’t had any issues to address. My only suggestion (being picky) would be a new mattress in the master bedroom, bathroom updates, and a lighter/beach paint color to in the main living areas to lighten it up! Other than that, we always enjoy our stay at the Islander!

  Unit 208 at The Islander in Destin was so wonderful. Great location, clean, friendly staff. Unit 208 is perfect because of the view of the ocean and as a mom, it was great to be able to sit on the deck and be able to watch my kids in the pool right outside our room.

  Michael W from Gulfport, MS recommends this vacation rental

  My wife and I vacation to the gulf coast often. When looking to book I have a few items that are musts. The condo must be clean. It must be close to restaurants and attractions. There must be amenities. The islander checks all those boxes. Easy check in, clean rooms, nice pool, beach access with free beach chairs and umbrella. Couldn’t ask for more!

  This place is perfect for my family of 4. This unit is close to the stairs, main entrance, no need to wait for elevator. Unit has everything one would need for a week at the beach! We like the quiet location of The Islander, private beach access. A LOT of guests returning year after year and it's easy to see why.

  a guest from Covington, LA recommends this vacation rental

  Cozy! you feel home as soon as you open the door. Clean and everything in place, peaceful, the apartment has everything you actually need. Almost Everything was perfect in the apartment and the service.
  
  However, AT THE BEACH, the only thing we will change is that when you go to the beach, the chairs and umbrellas offer by the Condo are so near to the persons next to you that we could not even have a nice conversation without them to listen to everything. There were a family of four all adults who got there after us, and brought a speaker to play their music. Around them were five people reading including me and we all have to close our books. The peacefulness and the joy disappears. The umbrellas are placed in horseshoe shape and all the guests from the rentals are almost on top of each other. We went one day to the beach by the condo and, the second day we went to the beach after 6 pm and brought the chairs from the apartment and the next six days we went to another beach because of the reasons mentioned above.
  
  
  We will ABSOLUTELY go back but definitely wont enjoy the crowd at the beach from 11am to 5 pm

  Jeffq R from Mt. Sterling, Ohio recommends this vacation rental

  First time to Destin àfter much research decided on the islander and my unit 208 liked that islander was not on main strip and down toward the entrance to harbor. Islander staff was always very nice and grounds were very well kept. Pools were very nice and warm. With just a 75 yard walk you were on the beach sunning and enjoying you time. Beach was beautiful and the guys always had you a seat and umbrella which 2 are included with your room. My unit was clean with nice kitchen. Enjoyed the fact it had its own bathroom off the bedroom and bedroom had a ceiling fan to move the cool ac air around. Spent much time on balcony enjoying the sights and having happy hour. Would highly recommend this unit and place.
