Beach Retreat is Place to Stay    Sep 11, 2024

Beach Retreat is Place to Stay
★ ★ ★ ★ ★
Beach retreat is the place to stay in Destin Miramar Beach!  Property  we stayed at  is well kept and maintained by Beach Condos in Destin Renee and Laura Clayton who are local and reputable and accommodating. Some units are pet friendly,  steps away from the beach, with  amazing views of the gulf. The pool is oversized, private, and clean. The location and property does not disappoint.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Miramar Beach
★ ★ ★ ★ ★
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay! Loved the primary bedroom being oceanside. 2nd floor made it super easy to use the stairs (elevator avail too) This condo was very clean and updated. Beds were comfortable. Balcony was one of the larger ones. Dining table allowed for 6-7 comfortably. Furnishings were fresh & not worn. Owners were very responsive throughout. Loved having a washer/dryer. Pool was nice but quite warm. Pet area very convenient; suggest fencing it in. Parking was easy - that alone deserves 5 stars! Property was private and easy walk across to the beach. Location to restaurants, etc was perfect.
Walk to Pompano Joe's, Ice Cream & Alvin's Island! Would 100% stay in Beach Retreat 209 again!

Senior-year spring break vacation. All four families stayed at Beach Retreat in four separate units and we were all very pleased. Our unit was even better in real life than than the pictures. Very comfortable and accommodating in every way. All amenities were top notch but the star of the show was beautiful Miramar Beach. The beach is spectacularly clean - sugar sand white beach and emerald green tropical water. Lots of great restaurants, shopping and Golf close. We will be back!!  (VRBO Review)

Property was fantastic. Property Management company was very responsive. Apartment was above expectations, right on the beach, beautifully decorated, well stocked. Best part of Miramar Beach. Had an awesome week. The only think that could add to the experience would be to supply beach towels for use with the complimentary chairs and umbrella service which is a very nice touch. Thank you for a memorable vacation.

Great experience from start to finish! Absolutely NOTHING adverse to say about the property or this rental experience. Beautiful condo, great view, nice people. Thanks for allowing pets. We like to bring our dog, but we don’t like to stay in places that look or smell “doggy.” This place was immaculate with NO dog hair or smell. Thanks for a wonderful vacation!

The condo is very nice, spacious, modern, comfortable and clean. The views from the balcony are great. We have rented this same unit several times.

Beautiful condo right on the beach    Mar 01, 2016

review star


The condo is beautifully decorated and appears well maintained. The beds were all big and comfortable along with all the furniture in the condo. Everything in the kitchen worked and we had a good beginning inventory of kitchen supplies. The beach is beautiful and comes with two chairs and an umbrella. The pool is very nice and has a decent amount of chairs and provides for a little warmer experience if visiting in early spring like we did. The location of the condo is good because there are a lot of restaurants and shopping centers within close driving proximity. I would stay in this condo again. Considering it is a pet friendly condo it was pretty clean except maybe the master bath was a little hairy but it wiped up easily. The only reason I did not give it five stars was because the master bedroom sliding door to the patio did not work and there were not any beach toys at the condo. At the other condos we have stayed at there were always beach toys. Overall a good vacation though next time I come it may be later in the year.
