Well managed property.

The condo was better than expected. Fantastic location. A very short walk to the beach and great views from the decks. The owners were fantastic. They provided great info on the area. Also checked in with emails/texts to make sure we had everything we need. I will rent from these owners again.

Location! Location! Location!

We stayed here February 25-March 5. The location of this property could not have been better. Uninstructed view of the beach and Gulf from lower and top deck. Within walking distance of one block to two restaurants. Very short drive to any grocery and other restaurants. We rented a golf cart for 1/2 day right down the street. We did not feel the need to rent a golf cart for a week because everything was so close to get to. Loved parking right at your front or back door. the condo had/supplied anything we needed. Stan is the best host ever. He returns any calls or text within minutes. We would definitly rent here again for any future trips back.

Very Relaxing Visit -Beachfront

Very relaxing visit to Destin. Stan was very responsive and unit was very clean and well equipped. Great location across from the beach (definitely enjoyed my daily walks and time on the beach). This was a working trip for me (my husband and dog got to really relax) . Best part was being to bring our dog along with us on our stay! Stan had beach chairs/cooler/etc. to make it very easy to enjoy this beachfront townhome.

Beautiful view, across street from beach, relaxing family vacation!

The property has a fabulous Gulf view from directly across the street from the beach. Condo is nestled in beautiful surroundings of luxury homes and condos. It provides 4 chairs and an umbrella with straps and handles for easy carrying that all packs up easily. It's a very easy walk straight across the street, through the gate and down to the beach. The condo had everything we needed and then some including a stackable washer and dryer upstairs. The location is very nice and easily accessible by car to the mall, restaurants and stores. The property allowed our family dog so he got to come along. Our host was very responsive and helpful. Sand Pebbles 3 is a gem!

PERFECT, especially if flying

Great location, right on the beach! Property was very clean and well kept. It was especially nice that the owner provides beach towels, chairs, umbrella, etc so if you are flying in, you do not have to worry about any of those things. Plenty of other extras in this condo made our stay so convenient such as trash bags and detergent, we didn't have to go out and buy all of those things. The basket of goodies on the counter was especially nice!! We would definitely return to this condo!! Excellent host!
