LOCATION LOCATION LOCATION!!! We cannot say enough about this unit. David was very easy to communicate with and really cares about his renters. The unit is beautiful and very well equipped. The beds are comfy and he provides high quality linens and other amenities. The views from the balcony are incredible. We enjoyed spending time on the balcony and was lucky enough to see a pod of dolphins swim by. We would highly recommend this unit and we plan to return in the future.
thanks Chris for your kind comments

David's condo was amazing. Being on the top floor made for some beautiful views. We saw the Dauphins swim by, even saw a Stingray go by. Could have not asked for a better place to stay. Looking forward to next year!
Thanks so much Kandee, appreciate that you are a repeat guest.

This was the first time coming to Destin that we got more than expected. David was a great host, and the condo is fantastic. Best view ever, from balcony, bedroom, and living area. Electronics were first class, as was the decor. Could not have been happier.
yea, I love it when guests have made some good memories

David’s condo was very nice and comfortable. The view from the balcony was as wonderful as advertised. We enjoyed the stay so much, we have already booked our stay for next year. David was very accommodating during our 2 weeks as things came up during our stay, I would highly recommend this property to anyone planning a trip to Destin. Thanks again David, we will see you next year!

My wife and I could not have been more pleased with David Barnes' condo. It was exactly as advertised and David ensured that everything was ready when we arrived. Dianne and I will definitely book David's unit again when we return to Destin if it is available. Anyone who decides to rent David's condo will not be sorry.

The condo was lovely and very spacious. The lanai was perfect with comfy chairs and loungers. The owner was very accommodating allowing us to stay later in the day since we had a late flight. I can not say enough good things about this listing. Perfect.

Our family stayed here in late June 2014 for the first time and we loved everything about it. The condo is beautiful, the balcony is huge, and you have an amazing view of the ocean. We saw dolphins several days from our balcony - one morning they were right up by the shore! Chairs and umbrella set up daily by our awesome beach attendant, Destry. Loved having a full-sized washer and dryer instead of the tiny stacked ones that are in most condos. Beds were very comfortable. David, the owner, was wonderful and very easy to work with. Everything was very clean and just as described. We definitely plan to come back!
Thanks Lasca. Appreciate your repeat business !!

Loved this condo! Mr. Barnes was there upon our arrival and departure! He was very kind, helpful and attentive. The condo provides all the comforts of home. It is meticulously clean with a fantastic view!! The Gulgate has a great pool with very easy access to the beach. We felt very safe while we were there. It is in a great area with so much to do with the kids/family!!! The white sand beaches and crystal clear water are just perfect! The beach service is so nice!! We hope to return again someday!!! Thank you Mr. Barnes, your hospitality and kindness were very much appreciated😊

This was my family's first return to the Gufgate in years (we'd outgrown the 2bdrm/2ba format), but had a smaller group this year and rented David's unit. My wife, 3 kids and I couldn't have been happier with the choice. This unit has been fully updated in recent renovation and has everything you could possibly need. We had an inexplicable snafu with the A/C unit and David was amazingly responsive and had it back up and running beautifully within a few hours. A first class host with a great condo and a perfect location. We look forward to a return trip soon. This unit is a gem in a great building. The Cairns Family
Thanks Paul, great review.... made me smile

We really enjoyed our stay in condo 1105 at Gulfgate. The place was spacious and clean. The balcony was amazing. It was large and provided spectacular views of the gulf. The chair setup on the beach was great and it was nice having only one row. The beaches to our left and right were definitely more crowded. The condo is also located very close to restaurants, shopping, and The Track for playing. Overall this was a great place to stay and we'd definitely stay here again.

I can't express how happy our stay was in this unit. Mr. Barnes was super to work with and very accessible. The views were spectacular and the condo was very clean. The unit had everything you could possibly want or need. FYI-the grills are charcoal for those who plan ahead. Plenty of ice for many trips to the beach and pool. You might want to throw in a small cooler to haul to both. Super Walmart close by. I suggest you stop and stock up on your way into town because once you check in, you won't want to leave! Bring your own beach towels and you will be set for a wonderful vacation. Location right in the middle of all attractions and directly across from the Track for our grandchildren to enjoy in the evening. I highly recommend this wonderful condo!
many thanks for your positive comments!!

We just spent a wonderful week at this Destin Gulfgate condo. We have stayed here for Spring Break for several years. The updates are amazing! I love the calming color scheme, the smooth, cool marble counters. The TVs were all updated, too. But the view from the balcony is so amazing that we sit outside most of the time or are at the pool or beach. The artwork is wonderful. The beds are comfortable. The best update was to the bathroom off the master bedroom...huge shower! Love this place!
thanks Deb for your repeat business

This condo was recommended by a friend who gave it glowing reviews and we couldn't agree more with their impression. Beautiful, clean, spacious and situated so close to the water you could hardly drag yourself off the patio and away from the view. Also very conveniently located in respect to dining, shopping, etc. The owner is friendly, accommodating, and very easy to work with. Can recommend it w/o hesitation. My only complaint is that our stay was too short.
yea! come back Nita Come back Nita!!
