Great location. We enjoyed the walk to the beach and the beautiful view from the balcony. The home had everything we needed. It was clean and spacious enough for our family.

Airbnb review 3/14/2025
Beautiful, spacious condo. Easy walk to beach. Pool was great, very big. We are outside all day so it’s very important to be close to beach and take break at pool or condo as needed. This condo had everything we needed and the host was extremely friendly and left clear instructions. We will definitely be back and will book with Laura again. Thank you for helping us have an excellent week!

Stayed with a pet
Enjoyed the location and the unit was very nice. Gates were a bit confusing, but that’s not the hosts fault. Would definitely consider another stay there.
Justine
Everything as advertised and would love to revisit Destin at this same spot. Truly gorgeous oceanfront views, pet friendly, nice pool, comfortable furniture, good wifi for working remote and private parking. Having 3 full baths was a huge plus. Good proximity to restaurants and shops, but having access to a car is ideal. Quick response when we needed to reach management. AC kept us nice and cool from the heat. Note, not negative but for awareness only: bring your own toiletries or be prepared to buy some. They provide starter set of household goods (couple trash bags, couple toilet rolls, etc). Highly recommend. (VRBO Review)
Ken
The property was clean, had amazing views for sunsets and dolphins, the beach service made life so much simpler, and the heated pool was a great convenience for the colder days. Had an amazing time....almost became squatter. (VRBO Review)
Francis
Clean, modern and convenient to everything. (VRBO Review)

Darlene
This is one of those rare properties that is squeaky clean, fresh, beautifully appointed, and all in working order. The balcony was spacious and there was plenty of space to sit and enjoy the view. With 3 generations in the condo for much of the stay, the spaciousness and the privacy of each couple made this particularly special. We all could relax. enjoy each other, or retreat to solitude. This truly is a unique property.
Connie
View was amazing, condo clean and spacious. Would stay there again! (VRBO Review)
Laura
We loved the condo. It was clean, well decorated and very roomy. The walk to the beach was very short and easy. The beach and ocean in this area are beautiful! Loved that beach chairs and umbrella were included and were set up for us everyday. I highly recommend this condo!
James
Condo was big, spacious and comfortable.
Kathleen P.
Perfect location and spacious unit. Lots of little extras some other owners don't provide, such as beach equipment, hooks on doors, night lights, charging station and hangers to name a few were appreciated. The best bonus was being able to bring my fur baby! The lighted dog walk area was perfect! Will return again!
Thank you so much for your review. We are so glad that you enjoyed your stay and hope that you will be back to Beach Retreat 411 soon. Renee Clayton Beach Condos in Destin

This condo was perfect for our family. Upon our arrival the condo was very clean and as soon as we walked in we could see our amazing view. Definitely will be back!!
Monica H
Had an awesome stay at beach retreat condo #411. There was plenty of room for 4 adults, 3 grand kids and our pet Yorkie. It was a short walk to the beach which was very nice. The condo had nice views from the bedroom, living room and balcony. The condo was decorated very nice and felt like home. The appliances were up to date and all the furniture looked new. It was nice to have the 2 beach chairs and umbrella set up and ready for us every day when we went to the beach, if you are looking for a condo nicely furnished and great views of the ocean we highly recommend this one. We will be going back!
