  a guest from Lafayette, LA recommends this vacation rental

  The property was well kept and the beach was beautiful. However, we were disappointed because the facility had only 1 working elevator for the 2nd year in a row. The unit’s furnishings were much more worn than in the photos online.

    Thank you for submitting your feedback ! We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay and all the amenities we have to offer.

We appreciate your recommendations and we will make sure to work on them for our future guests. We look forward to having you as a guest in the future.

  My family and I had a great time in this condo. The beds were very comfortable. Ice maker didn't work but we called the office and the maintenance man came and fixed it and it worked fine. Condo was clean. The condo could use a few upgrades like replacing cracked lamp shades and fix toilet paper holder in small bathroom but overall I would say this was a great condo!!!

  Kimberly E from Vicksburg, MS recommends this vacation rental

  The rental was mostly good. Beautiful view. It has some updated features but it also has some very old features that could use some attention. The cabinets and drawers in the kitchen are very worn and somewhat dirty, the carpet in the bedrooms needs to go, some of the plugs do not work, the bedroom furniture and couches are also worn. The management at the Islander are very nice. I would stay there again. But I'll get insurance if it's hurricane season.

    Thank you for your feedback ! We appreciate your recommendations and we will work on this for our future guests. We apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced and we will make sure to address these issues with housekeeping. We look forward to having you as a guest in the future.

  a guest from New Castle, IN recommends this vacation rental

  Great view of the beach. Linens and blankets were clean. Enjoyed the amenities in the kitchen for cooking. Islander staff helped us out with some bandages and extra dishwasher soap. We brought our own toilet paper and paper towels and used 100% of our stock.
  
  Maintenance came once for a clogged sink drain and was quite prompt.
  
  The tracks in the shower sliding doors and the patio were absolutely filthy. I asked housekeeping to come clean the shower doors, which they did. I didn't bother with the patio.
  
  The drawers in the master bedroom were stained with what appeared to be markers, but they were wiped down by housekeeping when they came for the showers.
  
  We were there from Sunday to Sunday and utilized the laundry exchange on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. It's a great service.

  John W from Lawrenceburg, KY recommends this vacation rental

  We booked this rental in very short order and were pleased that we not only found a place, but found a place willing to rent to us for less than a full week which can be difficult to find. We wanted to stay for a full week, but our obligations at home wouldn't let us.
  
  The Islander itself was a very nice gated area. I found the staff to be very friendly and helpful. The booking dates were all correct and they even allowed us to get into our unit a little early upon arrival. The grounds were very clean and well maintained. We didn't use the pool, but it looked very clean and the area around it well maintained and nicely decorated.
  
  Regarding our specific unit, it was just as advertised, photos accurately depicted the unit perfectly. Some of the reviews I'd read said that this unit was outdated, and to some people's standards I would agree. But it was oddly decorated the same as my parents house so it made sense to me. But the important thing to me was that it was very clean and everything was perfectly operational. I had no problems with this unit and I would highly recommend it.
  
  Being a tech guy, wifi is very important to me and this unit's wifi is completely acceptable in range and speed. That is not always the case in some places yet I never see it reviewed. So I thought I would review it just in case someone had a need to know.

  We had not been to Destin for 7 yrs after previously staying at the Islander for 20+ years. We were so happy to see that it is still a wonderful place to stay and we will definitely be back very soon! Our unit was clean and nicely furnished and there was plenty of room for all of us. All of the staff we encountered were so nice and helpful. We will absolutely see you again soon!!!
