Going Coastal, Destin, Florida Vacation Rental by Owner

The condo is beautifully renovated and has amazing views! We loved watching the dolphins from the balcony in the morning and the family dinners we were able to enjoy! It was great to stay somewhere that truly had everything you needed to prepare large meals! We will definitely make this an annual stay!

We really enjoyed staying at this great condo! Beautifully decorated, plenty of space for two families and views and location were awesome. We loved having corner condo because of the ocean views and wrap around balcony. 2nd floor was also handy for coming and going. Having umbrella and chair service was very convenient and the private beach area was really nice. A++ for fun getaway vacation!

Thank you for your kind words, loved having you there! Glad you enjoyed it & hope to have you again soon!

I selfishly didn’t want to give this condo a review and spoil my secret new beach paradise, but I have to acknowledge how awesome of a trip my family had. This unit was everything I could ask for. I normally stay in a high rise condo as a creature of habit. This year I had a special family reunion and needed a 3 bedroom and stumbled upon this gem. I love that it’s a mid rise, for one. The convenience of walking down a flight of stairs and around the corner of the building right on to the beach cannot be beat! Waking up to the sunrise over the beach and palm trees viewable from my bedroom window was just heavenly. The bed was super comfy and the master bedroom was spacious enough for me and my girls to spread out our things. In the dining room, I especially loved the wind chime chandelier over the dining table. It was a subtle , relaxing, calming sound at night when the house was quiet. The dining table seats the number of guests, which is not the case in many other condos. We were all able to gather around the table as a family for dinner, as well as game nights. I’d also like to acknowledge the owners for being so kind. With 6 children and 3 adults, I needed somewhere to put wet towels and bathing suits while the washer was in use, instead of everyone “dropping” them wherever since the bedrooms are carpeted. Heidi ordered laundry baskets for each bedroom from Amazon Prime and they were delivered in 2 days, along with an iron and ironing board. That’s what I call excellent customer service. Speaking of customer service, the front office staff /security were super friendly and I enjoyed talking with them during my stay. I would highly recommend this condo and I will never stay in a high rise condo again. I’ve found my “forever” rental until I can afford to purchase my own one day.

It was a pleasure having ya'll and we're so excited you enjoyed your stay! Can't wait for your next visit!

What a great experience to spend a week in the Going Coastal condo! Such a lovely vacation home on the most beautiful white sand beach I have ever seen. The serenity of the early morning hours on the balcony takes one’s breath away.   Watching the moon disappear and the sun come up over this little piece of heaven on earth is the best way to start the day in Destin. The dolphins entertained us many mornings as we drank our coffee on the patio and watched them explore the coastline. The condo provides all the comforts of home in every room with plenty of space to kick back, relax, and enjoy your stay. If you choose to prepare your own meals, Going Coastal has a kitchen that is sufficiently stocked with cookware, glassware, cutlery, coffee makers, etc., all to help you enjoy more of your time taking in the fabulous views of the beach. If your preference is to dine out, there are so many great places in the area from which to choose.

As soon as you step through the front door, you will realize you made the perfect choice for your vacation getaway. I am certain you will come again.

We had the pleasure of being one of the first renters in this beautiful condo! The decorations are perfect for this piece of paradise on the water. The view is impeccable. The set up for this place is great for families. I love that the bunks are in the hallway, allowing adults to have private space. All of the needs in the kitchen are met, including things most rentals don't think about. One of our favorite features were the reserved chairs for the beach. It makes a huge difference in the enjoyment factor for vacation. Definitely don't even question, and pull the trigger!

Thank you for sharing this piece of paradise! We could sit for hours on the balcony and watch nature playoff right in front of us, from the running sandpipers to the playful dolphins and the jumping ladyfish, every day was eventful. Everything is so stylishly, yet practical. Decorated with love and thought of every detail put into this beautiful home. We’ll be back again and again.

This is by far the best ocean view as a corner unit with no obstructions of the shoreline. Very spacious condo and beautifully decorated and welcoming. We saw dolphins from the living room! Just steps away from the beach with soft white sand and calm swimmable beach!! Can't wait to go back!

This condo was absolutely amazing. It has the best ocean view. You stay right on the beach. You are close to everything, to the restaurants and shops.

My family stayed in this condo. It is absolutely the perfect place and the perfect location. It is an end unit with a wrap around patio. So we were able to watch the sunrise and dolphins each morning with our coffee/breakfast and watch the sunset each evening with a drink. It is impeccably decorated down to the finest detail. Windows surround you with a view of the ocean in every room. All the amenities you need are provided. Everything has been tastefully updated and is new. It feels like you are almost sitting in the ocean. It’s on the second floor and you simply walk downstairs to either the beach or pool/spa. I would highly recommend this as the perfect place for families or groups. It’s a large 3 bedroom bath with the cutest twin beds built into the wall and a sleeper sofa. Beds are super comfortable. 3 full bathrooms. You just can’t get better! It’s a 5 star place and I’ve already booked my next trip here.
