    Beautiful location and accommodations for the whole family including small kids. A pleasant experience again this year. We used this location in the past and always was giving us everything we hoped and needed for a vacation. We have been all very happy for spending a so nice time together with the family. This is an ideal place to do this, and we already reserved the same spot for 2026. Thank you to the whole team at The Islander resort. We are looking already forward for the next year.

    a guest from Sedalia, MO recommends this vacation rental

    The condo is a great room and straight across from the beach gate. The condo does have a washer and dryer which is very nice and is what keeps us coming back to this room. I do wish that the washer and dryer were not such an expensive upgrade to the room though. Also, it would be nice if a shower head would be installed in both bathrooms that had a hose due to all the sand. All in all a great condo and The Islander has a great beach attendant.

    Rebecca S from Menon, MI recommends this vacation rental

    I’m very picky about where I stay and I’m 100% a beach lover!
    Just steps from the beach, and heated pool.
    Ideally perfect for older folks due to the main floor or families with kids.
    The community was quiet, clean, and check in was extremely convenient.
    Are only hiccup was the fridge ice maker not working however the front office provided complimentary bags of ice. I highly recommend this unit and community. We will hoped be back soon!

    We had a great time! Probably our 5th time coming here. Great location. Owners recently added a washer and dryer. A big plus! Only thing was the TV in living room. We couldnt change channels even with new batteries in the remote. We didnt watch much TV anyway.

    We booked unit 103 as we had some friends staying a few doors down during the same week. We had never been to Destin but thought, why not? It was by far, the best vacation yet with our kids. The unit and resort were awesome. We loved being on the ground floor near the beach and the pool. The unit was clean and the resort was awesome.

    Kristen Z from Brighton, MI recommends this vacation rental

    Location was awesome, but the condo was not very clean when we arrived, and it was very musty smelling. The staff was friendly and brought us a de-humidifier to help with the smell. The pool was always very clean and nicely kept. The beach access was great. Overall, we thought it was a good value for the price.

    • Manager Responded on 4/25/2021

      So sorry to hear about the smell and cleanliness issues. We will be sure to address housekeeping. We are happy to hear that overall you enjoyed your vacation.

    We've made annual trips to Destin for the past 30 years-it never disappoints. We've been staying at the islander for the past 15 of those 30 years. Something to be said for that. Highly recommend The Islander-haven't stayed in a unit yet that we were not happy with.
