Beach Manor has the absolute best ocean view in the area. Location next to the state park great for long walks on the beach without the crowds. Unit was very nicely updated.
Agent that booked our reservation was polite and informative. Received text with door code in a timely manner as promised.
Unit was clean except for the dishwasher and some dishes. The cleaning service apparently stopped before the end of the cycle. Dishwasher pod was not completely used up and dishwasher had an odor after two days. We ran thru a complete normal cycle and everything was fine.

The rental was exactly as described. The views from the living room and master were exceptional. Very nice and beautifully landscaped property. Security gates were located into the property and at each pool area. We felt safe. Grocery delivery abatible from Wal mart was a great bonus.
Great place to stay, beautufully updated and decorated. Very clean overall except for the master shower.
Only recommendation would be to have the master shower deep cleaned. There were a few dark spots on the shower tiles and the shower floor felt oily.
We did make a few calls to the property manager due to our car battery dying. She was very prompt to help and always very friendly.
Highly recommend this condo. The location is perfect. Close to shopping and dining.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.

Very easy to work with. Everything was handled by email/text. Got all the information we needed before we needed it, and had zero issues on our vacation. Well done.

This was a very nice unit with an exceptional view. This was our third trip to Tops'l, and we absolutely love it. The unit has LVP floors throughout, which isn't super homey, but handy with sand and cleanup. The unit could use a new rug in the living room and a few touchups from a handyman here and there, but nothing major. The appliances are nice and everything was serviceable. The location is prime and the view is unmatched. We would go back for sure.

Great Condo! Very nice view. Basic supplies but adequate. Only thing that really needs replacing is the toilet seat in the master bedroom. It slides to the side when you sit on it like it is loose. We would certainly stay there again!

Beach Manor unit 908 was an excellent value and beautiful condo for our recent spring break getaway. The condo was clean and very well-equipped with linens, bathroom supplies, kitchen supplies, easy to use TVs, Wi-Fi, balcony furniture and even beach chairs. Located close to the elevator on ninth floor was convenient and the unit was spacious. We have rented from Gibson for many years, and they are really the best, easy to work with and responsive anytime we have needed anything. Until we're ready to rent the 14th floor penthouse, we would easily stay in 908 again on future visits.

I really enjoyed working with Gibson Beach Rental. Check in and check out very easy with App. If I had any questions or requests, they were prompt and friendly with answers. Will definitely use them again.
Beach Manor 908 was just as pictured. Perfect for us, updated, clean, beautiful view from balcony. Tops’l complex is located close to everything we wanted to do. Grounds are well maintained. Beach chair rentals ended Oct. 31, so you could sit anywhere you wanted to on beach, that was wonderful, weather was perfect whole week.
I will definitely keep Tops’l, Beach Manor, and Gibson on my list for a return visit.

Our stay in Beach Manor 908 was amazing! The views from the balcony and master bedroom are amazing! The unit was very clean. I would recommend bringing extra items such as tissue, maybe laundry detergent, bath soap, etc. A few items were provided, but depending on the length of your stay, you may need more.

The views are great - 9th floor overlooking the beach. The beach and water are beautiful. Not the best for sunrise or sunset due to angles (April sun - probably better in the fall/winter). But great places in Destin/San Destin that are on the water for dinners and sunsets.
Everything was clean and as advertised. Plenty of glasses, plates, silverware, etc. We didn't cook much but pots/pans were probably adequate. (The places to eat are so numerous and usually very good. You'll have trouble deciding where to eat in Destin, San Destin, 30A, etc.) The furnishings are as noted in the pictures.
The master bed was very soft, to the point of difficulty sleeping, but the twins and sofa are more firm. One twin does block the closet as others noted.
Had some issues with the main tv and the 5 remotes but maintenance fixed that (used after hour email and fix it form and fixed the next morning); some lights were out and they were fixed promptly. The hot tub wasn't real hot, but it still hit the spot. The weight room was OK; the elevators worked well (no long waits); the pool was clean and nice (skimmed by maintenance every morning. Parking was a little tight in spots (and we were in a small sedan, not our large SUV). Covered parking was a big plus.
I would rent this place again, or even some of the others we saw in Beach Manor. Good price, easy reservation process, courteous people (Gibson and Tops'l) to deal with.

Beautiful condo and wonderful balcony with a great view. Our only complaint is that the twin bed mattresses were very loud. The kitchen is very nice with lots of counter space. As usual, the service provided by Gibson Rentals was perfect. We will definitely stay here again!
