Gibson Realty was great to work with for our last minute Condo is as pictured (the real view out to the beach is even better!). The amenities (pools and outdoor restaurant) were perfect. Just be sure to ask if there is maintenance going on at the time of your stay — we got to know the painters and sandblasters pretty well crisscrossing through their gear but all nice and not really a big deal for us. Overall a great experience..

Condo was even better than the pictures. It was very clean and spacious. Amazing views. Modern and all the amenities you would need. We would definitely book this same condo again. Great area on the beach away from crowds. This is a gated safe area. I emailed Gibson rentals a couple times with questions and they were prompt and helpful with their responses. Very nice unit and very well ran.

We love coming to San Destin for the month of November. We stayed at Tops’l this trip and it was lovely. Loved the pool, hot tub and restaurant on site. There is so much to do in that area, biking, beach, restaurants. Gibson has always been very good with all arrangements and any issues that may arise.

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.

We got this rental by happenstance as the one we rented had been sold and this was our new option
Doors to bathroom were very narrow
Washer did not work but Management Company was very accommodating and took care of our laundry!!

Thank you for sharing
We ate in and dined out. We also utilized the grilling facility. Wished we would have had access to the top pool as we would have with the previous rental. It has a "baby pool" much easier for the littles.

This specific unit is ideal. The third floor has a spectacular view of the gulf and sand dunes with a balcony to enjoy your coffee in the morning. Parking on the top level allows you to walk directly to your unit without having to use the elevators, which can't be beat. This building is the last high rise next to the park and the beach to the left is virtually empty. We had absolutely ideal weather and will definitely be back.

Unit 310 was up to date and clean. The unit offered dishes, cookware, utensils plus some small appliances and was beautifully and comfortably decorated.
The balcony had a beautiful view of the beach. Resort was close to restaurants and everything we needed. We were able to park on the third floor of the garage which made loading and unloading very easy.
The app made check in and check out a breeze. Gibson Beach Rental was always there to help if needed.

Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
Thank you so much for your review! We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us, but are disappointed that you found the beds to be uncomfortable. Saatva mattresses are considered a premium mattress, and were just purchased last year. Finding the right fit for everyone when it comes to beds can be tricky. The owner has tried very hard to find a mattress that accommodates all body and sleep styles. We're sorry that the mattresses weren’t up to your expectations, but are so happy that you had a wonderful stay overall. We hope to welcome you back soon!

I’m not sure what to say other than everything was amazing. The unit is outstanding. It’s maintained extremely well and has everything you need to have a great stay. Beds were comfy and there is plenty of seating in the living room and dining room. Kitchen was perfect. We cooked in several nights and had everything we needed. The resort is first class as everything was kept very clean and manicured. We literally had the best time and were beyond pleased with our unit and the resort. Very impressive! we would rent this unit again without hesitation. My only suggestion, and this doesn’t reflect poorly on the unit at all is the beach service. Just skip it and use your own chairs.

Property rental was exactly as pictured. Upon arrival property was clean. Property manager contacted us early on day of check-in and we were able to check-in earlier than expected which was great since we got into town early. I used a previous renters advice and we brought our own paper towels, paper plates, plastic silverware, Kleenex’s, TP, dish soap and beach towels. The poolside bar and grill does not accept cash, so take your card to the pool with you. My kids enjoyed the poolside activities daily and the evening movie. They also enjoyed playing putt putt golf. We would definitely recommend this resort to others and plan to come back!

The property was just like it was described. It was clean and well-maintained. It was very convenient to walk out the patio door to the sidewalk to get to the beach or the pool. Didn't have to ride elevators to and from. I would definitely stay here again. There was an issue with the patio door that I reported upon arrival. The door handle kept falling off and we were not able to lock the door. The office said they would complete a work order, but NO ONE showed up the entire week to fix the problem. I was not comfortable with a door that didn't lock. Also, the toilet in the hall bath was VERY slow to flush. It needs to be replaced.

Awesome rental! Beautiful view. Great, peaceful location. Comfortable and just as represented. We enjoyed the visit. Easy and convenient rental experience. Just a couple things that would have made it perfect: Balcony and chairs were covered with cut hair that I cleaned up. It had also been tracked inside. The secondary bedroom is by the elevator. Thankfully it was quiet but lights in the hall kept the room too bright. Room darkening blinds would be beneficial. Sofa could use some steam cleaning.

We were very happy with the location of the property. Everything was clean and well maintained. The pictures of the property were misleading in my opinion. The kitchen and living room were very small. Only one person could be in the kitchen at a time. However, the master bedroom was HUGE. We had 6 people in the condo. Originally were supposed to have 8. 8 people would have been uncomfortable in the space. For as much as we paid, I expected more. My only other suggestion regarding the property is to tone down the beach service personnel. We had an issue with trying to put up an umbrella AFTER he had taken down the row of umbrellas that was directly behind us at 4:15. If we pay $6,000 for 5 nights in a condo you would think we would get at least one set of chairs & umbrella for free per day and wouldn't have to bring our own. It seems like the people paying $50 per day for beach service were given priority over those of us who paid a premium for our accommodations.

This is our 2nd time staying at Beach Manor. Before it was the Tides (2) and the Summit. Beach Manor is the best place to stay when at the Topl's Resort . Unit 908 was near perfect. The view was perfect and is the best height to enjoy the beach view! The master bed was very comfortable. The tv in that room had netflex to watch, which was nice. Vert clean unit. Kitchen had the basics. The unit had beach chairs and boogie board to use. On a personal note, call ahead and reserve beach chairs and umbrella, request the front row. There is a fee but well worth it to get a spot on the beach. That way you do not feel the pressure to get out early to get a spot. The only negative is the Tops'l would not let Gibson rental guests use their big gym. We had to use the Beach Manor small (very). The other rental company was allowed to. We very much liked the communication Gibson had with us via, text, emails and on their app. We will definitely use Gibson Beach Rentals again.

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.

Maintenance waiting for parts. The pool are is VERY small for such a large complex. Could not get a lounge chair- all taken with towels from early AM. Not an ounce of shade avail at the pool- which could be tortuous during hot weather.
They did provide free equip for the very basic mini golf and shuffleboard. We were told that Gibson rentals were not eligible for tennis courts or the larger fitness area.
Beaches are nice. Clean. No lifeguards, so families need to be watching. Renting two chairs and an umbrella will cost $50 per DAY. We had two fays when ocean was red flagged , but no credit for rentals on beach chairs, tho no one was out.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
Thank you for your review! We are happy you enjoyed your stay and appreciate your comments. We can understand that the vendor cost for umbrella rentals at the beach per day are not ideal, so each of our rentals do come with two lightweight chairs and an umbrella for your use free of charge. We hope to welcome you back soon!

We had a great stay. Condo was clean and updated and was close to elevator so it wasn't a bad walk to pool or the beach. It wasn't busy when we were there so the pool was rarely crowded and it was quiet even being close to elevator. The condo had basic dishes etc but no grill tools or basic spices like salt/pepper. That was fine for us but something that's nice to know. They did have starter packs of soap and detergent and kitchen sponge. Overall we enjoyed our stay and would stay here again. It has a great eastward view for sunrise but you cannot see sunnset from the condo.

The unit was nice and recently painted and refreshed. The bedroom furniture is in great shape and the bunk beds are a full size which is a bonus. We like that there is a parking garage that keeps the car covered. The relationship to the beach from the building is about as as close as you can get. We come back each year.

We have rented a lot of condos over the years and this was by far one of the best! It was beautiful, It was recently remodeled, spotless and it was right on the beautiful white sand/green water beaches of Sandestin. This condo was also extremely well stocked. In fact, there was not one thing we needed that was not provided. A very thoughtful owner. And the location is close to everything you would want to do in Sandestin, Destin and the surrounding areas. I must also add that Gibson Beach Rentals was great to work with. Every aspect of their involvement was very professional (reservation process, website, mobile app, check-in and check-out process, etc.). And Gibson was very responsive to phone calls and emails. Truly a win-win!

The condo and the view were near perfection. It is in a great location with a fabulous view of the Gulf of Mexico. The rooms were clean and well appointed. We had a couple of unannounced interruptions from people who had come to pick up furniture and swap out some of the existing pieces. We were there for the Month of January and chose to do our own housekeeping but had to provide our own cleaning products since there were limited supplies in the condo.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
Thank you for your review! We are so happy to hear that you enjoyed your stay with us, but want to apologize for the interruption you experienced. We strive to keep guests updated and informed of any interruptions that may occur during their stay; in this particular case the vendor arrival was not communicated to us appropriately and we were unable to make you aware, but this has since been addressed to prevent it from happening again. We work hard to deliver exceptional guest service, and it’s apparent in this case, we fell short. Your feedback will be shared with the operations team so that we may continue to improve our guest experience.

The whole experience was wonderful. Everything was ready when we arrived. The condo was very well outfitted for an enjoyable time. The kitchen was well equipped and the appliances are up-to-date. Having a full size washer and drier was very nice and came in extremely handy. We did enjoy the wonder view from the living room of the beach. I also worked while we were there and the desk work area work out very well. The wi-fi connection never failed. We all enjoyed the chairs next to the window for which we were able to look out at the beach area. Of course the location is ideal. When down at the beach we notice that it was not crowded at all, like it was at the properties next door.

We loved the ground floor condo experience! It was such an easy walk to and from the beach. Condo was clean and well equipped and close to parking garage. If you have a tall vehicle (truck with big tires, car with luggage carrier on top you have to park outside the garage around the circle which was no big deal. The main pool is ok but I liked the personal smaller pool for beach manor guests. You can’t see the beach from this ground floor condo but all the other conveniences of being so close to the beach were worth it. Also, make sure and reserve beach chairs as early as you can. We had to wait a few days because they were sold out for the first 2 days we were there. Condo does have 2 chairs to use. We definitely would stay here again. It was perfect for teenagers and they loved the food at the tiki hut by the main pool.

This condo was very comfortable and clean for our week stay on Miramar Beach. The staff was very responsive to requests as well. The view from the living room and balcony was excellent, as pictured. The facility was very family friendly as well, with a couple of pool options, along with an easy walk over the bridge to the beach. I would highly recommend, and would say there's a very good chance we rent again! I would also add, it's the last of the high rise buildings on this stretch of beach, so if you're looking for a bit less crowded space, this is it!

We had a great experience from start to finish. Gibson provided us with all the information we needed before our arrival and we did not have any problems during our stay. Check-in was super easy and despite guests checking out the morning of our arrival, the condo was still ready well before 4pm. The condo was exactly as depicted, clean and in overall good condition. The beds and bedding were very comfortable. There were several beach chairs, umbrellas, and boogie boards available in the condo for use. The kitchen was sufficiently stocked, but I’d still recommend bringing along some paper plates and plastic utensils, to avoid having to run the dishwasher daily. The balcony is enormous with a fabulous view of the gulf, but lacks privacy (shares a wall with adjacent condo) and doesn’t provide the same great beachfront view as the higher numbered condos on the west side of building (view in pictures is accurate). Tops’l is well-maintained and in a great location convenient to shopping and restaurants. We spent most of our time on the beach so didn’t utilize a lot of the amenities offered at Tops’l but we were happy with those that we did use. The pool and hot-tub in front of Beach Manor were clean and not crowded and my 8-yo daughter enjoyed the daily crafts at the main pool. Even though it was a holiday weekend, the beach never felt overly crowded and was *significantly* less crowded than the beach in front of Sandestin (which looked absolutely miserable). We had a crew of 15 (staying in multiple condos) and had no problem securing a spot on the beach large enough to accommodate all of us. We did have someone go down to the beach fairly early each morning (8ish) though to stake out our spot to ensure we were close enough to watch our kids while they swam. I'd recommend doing the same if you have small children and want to be able to sit close to the water.

The view is everything! Modern decorated & beautiful condo in an immaculate, gated and beautifully landscaped resort community. Publix grocery store is a five-minute drive away. We loved eating our breakfast at the hightop table and chairs in the dining area and looking out at the ocean! The balcony can be accessed from either the living room or the master bedroom. Our only suggestions are to upgrade 1) the beach umbrella to one that is sturdier and can withstand the wind, and 2) the bathroom towels. Management communicated well from arrival to departure.

All beds were comfortable
kitchen had lots of equipment
balcony faces a nice neighborhood and Topsail Park with beach to the left but was still beautiful and relaxing to sit on. The patio chairs were quality and comfy.
Beach chairs and umbrellas were great to have!
Access to Beach Manor pool and the Topsl pool was nice. Topsl pool has full service bar and restaurant with beach view which came in handy on the double red flag days.
Boardwalk to beach was nice and had umbrella chair rentals.
Beach Manor building is L shaped with half facing beach and half facing side. My dads condo was front beach (811). 800-806(ish) seemed to face the side. Wasn’t an issue for us but if that’s important go for higher number condos and pay attention to balcony photos.
We used the resort pool even after checkout and just rinsed off and changed in bathrooms before we headed to airport. Can’t do that when you rent a house!
This condo and Topsl resort was great! We would stay again! Empty beaches are just a ten minute walk to Topsail Park.

This condo is so clean and comfy and the ocean view from the deck is just beautiful. Gibson Beach Rentals was great to work with. I texted the first morning that the toaster was broken because I didn’t want them to think we broke it. Gibson Rentals delivered a brand new toaster the very same day while we were at the beach! Check in and check out was a breeze. You won’t go wrong with this one!

The unit, the building location, and the overall resort were all exactly what we wanted. The pleasant surprises included 9-ft ceilings, huge wall of windows facing the gulf, lanai facing the sunset, empty beach immediately to the east where the state preserve is, and covered parking on the same level as the condo, and Alexa for voice controlled music, etc.

Tops'l Beach and Racquet Resort at Miramar Beach is a wonderful location that is very close to everything you need for an extended winter stay. The resort is beautiful with walking trails, fitness centers, pools, spas and much more. The Beach Manor high rise sits just behind the sand dunes and Unit 310 provides excellent views of the beach and the beautiful Gulf of Mexico. The property and the owner's condo was very clean, well maintained and equipped with everything we needed. Gibson Beach Rentals provided us with excellent service and made the check-in / check-out process smooth and easy. During our 7 week stay in January & February, we enjoyed many nature walks and scenic photography for our website at in several nearby State Parks. Of course there was some shopping at the Silver Sands Outlets, Grand Boulevard and Baytowne Wharf. Then there are the beautiful small communities on County Road 30-A such as Watercolors, Seaside, Alys Beach and Rosemary Beach. So many restaurants nearby and we really liked Harbor Docks, Dewey Destin, AJs, Surf Hut, The Old Fish House, Angelinas, Grimaldis, Cantina Laredo, Wine World at Watercolors just to name a few. We would definitely recommend Tops'l Resort and Beach Manor 310. We look forward to another winter escape in our future.

Great stay!
5/5
We loved this property! I wasn’t sure how we would like the angled view from the balcony but it was beautiful having the Tops’l Preserve right next to us. Wonderful view of both the gulf and the preserve. Condo was clean and had everything we needed. Decor was nice, too! Unfortunately it rained everyday of our stay so the covered parking garage was a nice amenity. We would love to stay in this unit again.

My unit has a fabulous view and kitchen is well stocked. The new chair in the living room is perfect to sit and watch the magnificent Gulf. Master kingsize bed is very comfortable.
Unfortunately the living room sofa cushions are really "tired" and worn making for a very uncomfortable sit.
The kitchen cabinets show their age and major wear. Have trouble closing some of the cabinet doors or keeping them closed. And the cabinet holding the trash can needs cleaning or painting. The kitchen really needs new cabinets.
The entry door is not too inviting with major paint chips and rust on the door.
After visiting 3 other BM condos which have had many new upgrades it appears that 811 is due for a major facelift.
Gibson management staff are the best - always friendly, and quick to respond to any question or concern.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
Thank you Linda for the amazing review. We will dive in and take a look at those kitchen cabinets and couch and let the owner know our findings. The entry door is scheduled to be sanded and repainted as part of a building renovations. I would like to add the owner has installed new floors, paint bathroom cabinets, new window coverings. Update the master bed, dishwasher and sitting chair. We are so glad you enjoyed your stay and I can't say that I blame you for loving that chair in the living room that is one of my favorite spots as well.

A much needed second wind. Life is good. We loved everything about this condo and resort. The resort is located near a nature preserve. It is perfect for sunrise and beach walks.

I really enjoyed this condo. It has a great ocean view from the side not oceanfront... it included everything you would need for a week Also included chairs and an umbrella which i didn’t use. I prefer more less crowded beaches but this worked bc I couldn’t find much at the last minute! Rental chairs took up
Most of the oceanfront so you had to fit behind them which made me frustrated bc in Perdido key ( our condo has hurricane damage)they don’t set up right on ocean . Rental company is very efficient Would definitely rent another condo from them

This condo was just perfect for our family of four. We loved having the covered parking, the elevator close to our room and the very short walk to the beach. And the VIEW! It's just gorgeous. In particular, we liked that our view wasn't other high rise condos. Instead, it's beautiful homes and the preserve. The kitchen was stocked with everything needed and the extra beach chairs came in handy! We also took advantage of the free passes for golf. It was pretty easy to set up and well worth the effort.

We recently stayed at Beach Manor for a wedding at Tops’l. We were in and out of the rooms of many family members, and I can say that our room was by far the most beautiful. Not only is the view spectacular, the decor and kitchen were obviously very recently updated. My only issue with the condo was the sofa bed: it was in such bad shape that I don’t think anyone over 40 pounds could sleep on it. Other than that, we highly recommend this unit.

This unit is as beautiful in person as it is in the pictures! The sofa is now a sectional which still leaves plenty of seating space. The rooms are spacious, yet cozy. The views from the master and mini master are amazing. My favorite part was drinking coffee on the balcony watching the sun come up, listening to the waves crash. The unit has all the basic things you would need as far as dishes, pots, pans, coffee maker, etc. I loved the 3 full sized bathrooms. We went with 2 other couples so that was a must for us. We really enjoyed the location of this unit on the tops’l beach manor building as well. The grill by the pool has some amazing food & the staff is so nice! Really enjoyed the available beach service as well. This was my first stay at Tops’l but I will for sure stay here again in the future!

Our first stay in an upscale resort was a tremendous success. The unit is spacious, well equipt, and perfectly located. Beach Manor is also the closest to the beach, so you hear the surf and can see it from the huge balcony for a fraction of what beach front would cost. It is also a long drive or walk from busy 98. You don't even know it exits. But it is also almost directly across from Grand Boulevard and Baytown Wharf and a few minutes from SilverSands outlets. You couldn't ask for a better combination. Great unit, great location.

We booked our stay last minute because of an hurricane that was going to hit our original rental on the atlantic side. The process was really easy and Gibson made sure everything was taken care of in such a short period of time.

We thoroughly enjoyed out trip, and the condo was great! Very clean, very well stocked with quality appliances and dishware. Plenty of them. The only negative we had was the bed wasVERY uncomfortable. Way too hard. I have back issues at times and a nice firm mattress tends to help immensely, so I was kind of glad when I pressed on it at first to test it. But sleeping in it was different. My husband and I flipped around all night every night because we couldn’t get comfortable. Also the air conditioner was a NEST. Which apparently is preprogrammed and we struggled to get the bedroom cool at night, despite keeping shutters and curtains closed all day. After the 1st couple nights it was a little better, but we just didn’t understand it since we don’t have that type of unit.
Otherwise, it was a very comfortable well equipped unit

Got a call before we even got to the property saying we would be able to get into the room by 12:00 which was wonderful, once we arrived at the property we did not have to check in everything was already done and we had our pass code for the room. Once we got in the room it was beautiful had a great view of the ocean from the large side windows. We was so well pleased with everything. We saw several deer driving in and out of the property each day and it was so quite and peaceful the beach was very secluded on our side which we also loved. We had a wonderful stay & everything was so close we did not have to go very far to get to most of the places we normally visit. Most definitely would recommend to anyone. We loved it.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this unit at Topsl Beach Manor. We did an extended weekend with friends (4 adults, 3 toddlers) and the condo met all of our needs.
The ease of access to the beach, pools, and other amenities made for a great vacation for our family. We thoroughly enjoyed the beach every day and the sunset views from the balconies in the condo were nothing short of amazing.
If our travels take us back to the Destin/Miramar area, we will definitely consider this unit again!

Great location, friendly and professional staff. Condo was very clean. Master bedroom was uncomfortably warm, even though we always kept the shades down.
We were there the 2nd week of August, so there was plenty of room on the beach.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
Hi Ronald,
Thank you for the review! We do apologize about the master bedroom being warm. If only we were made aware of the situation we could've sent maintenance out to fix the problem.

The rental was very nice. We were very impressed with the condo. The location was very close to the beach. My daughter & her boyfriend had a condo rental up the road from us and when she came she was upset that they didn't get the little goodies that Gibson Beach rentals left. We did not access or use the free activities that was included in our stay. We would definitely recommend this rental company to our family & friends. We had a wonderful time.

We loved our condo! It was immaculate and cozy! Plenty of room for our family of 5. The kids bedroom was nice and dark in the mornings so they could sleep past the sunrise!! Unfortunately, we had a toddler stampede in the condo above ours so the sleep wasn’t what it could have been. But I guess that’s hit or miss with whoever is above you and how much they let their kids run and jump everywhere at the crack of dawn... Everything in the condo was so nice and the location distance to the beach and pools was fabulous. The elevator went out on the day we were packing to leave, so we had to haul everything up and down from the 4th floor but normally the elevator timing was decent. We absolutely loved the pools and the pool side restaurant had good food but not great service. We were bummed to find out that they closed at 8pm in the summer, so the next time we attempted it, we got there at like 7 and must have waited 30min for anyone to acknowledge we were there. My husband ordered a drink at 7:30 and around 8:30, he gave up on getting it and had to go ask for our credit card back and to take the drink off. It was a little crazy considering how NOT busy the place was. But the food was great and everyone was nice! The Tops’l event coordinators were fantastic - movie at the pool event was great.
The deck for our condo was spacious and comfortable and had a great view. We loved staying here!

Our vacation rental was exactly as expected. The photos were accurate. The kitchen was very well stocked with dishes and pans. The check-in processes was great. They even called us on the day of check in to say our place would be ready a little earlier, which was nice. Very fun/cute welcome basket.

The condo was clean, comfortable and had amazing views. The building is in the best location in the private resort if you want easy beach access and away from the large crowds. Go to the beach and turn left and you walk past a few large homes and then hit the state park with undeveloped beach. Go right and you wade through the crowd of people from the nearby condos and hotels. Best of both worlds. The condo building itself is well-maintained, pool is nice and maintenance staff were very polite and friendly to guests. We could here footsteps above our bedroom, but no voices and it did not negatively impact our stay. The balcony is small, but the view is absolutely beautiful. Beds were comfortable. The beach chairs and umbrella provided with the condo are a good addition, we used them.

This place was great!!!! We were there with two adults, two teens, and twig nine year olds. Marble countertops, like-new kitchen appliances (toaster oven, oven, fridge, electric cooktop, microwave, dishwasher), true HD cable tv in every room, BlueRay player in living room, DVD in the bedroom, outstanding sunrise view in the bedroom, and electric blinds for the living room balcony. The bed in the master was very comfortable. Everything was clean and modern. My kids didn’t complain about the WiFi.
The Beach Manor building is at the end of the Tops’l road. The beach is very close. We didn’t go in the pool or make use of the bar while we were there, but it sounded like everyone was having fun over there.
Our only problem was that the electric cooktop wasn’t working when we arrived. We reported it with the Hospitality app and someone came by to repair the breaker. We didn’t miss any meals while we waited thanks to the electric griddle we found in the cabinets.
Also, there’s a basketball half-court nearby. It was always busy, and they shut it down one day because a burst pipe cases a hole in the ground nearby. My boys didn’t get to use it.
We would definitely recommend and repeat stay if we can get it again.

This was our fourth stay at Tops’l. Our family of 5 loved Beach Manor 1206! It had everything we needed. The view from the master suite was AMAZING! I loved waking up and seeing the beautiful sunrise and sparkling water! We loved the “extras” such as the beach chairs and umbrella. We would definitely rent 1206 again.

Total thumbs up! This condo is super nice, directly on the beachfront. 3rd floor level allows you to park on same level in parking deck so no stairs/elevators needed when unpacking/packing your stuff.

Fantastic week in a fantastic unit. 12th floor offers more privacy and less traffic. The unit was well equipped and very clean. We have been coming to Tops'l Beach Manor for 20 years and all of our this have been fantastic but this unit ranks near the top of the list. Easy check in and out, clear instructions on wifi and cable.
One issue totally unrelated to the unit was Red Tide, mainly airborne. Nothing serious, a minor irritation but it did impact the entire region's beaches. First time we have ever encountered any beach related issues. Check beach conditions before you come but book this unit, it is a gem.

Always a pleasant stay at Beach Manor 1005 and a pleasure to work with the Gibson folks. The unit continues to be in good condition. The views are priceless. The master BR mattress has seen better days, but is still OK for now. The hall runner rug we found to be a slip hazard. There is still no door latch or deadbolt to lock out intruders. Anyone with a code can come right in at any time. Other units with similar keypad entry permit someone on the inside to secure the door. The balcony furniture has certainly held up over time. The reclined chairs are not comfortable and provide a poor angle for viewing. Consider a high two-top table with chairs as other units have. Having said all of that, there is no reason not to return. Looking forward to doing so.

Thanks for your honest opinion Mr. Tolbert, we appreciate it and will definitely share with the owners. We're terribly sorry you experienced inconveniences.

The Rental company was very nice to deal with and the place was extremely nice and clean. The ONLY complaint I have is that I wish the balcony was a little bigger or at least have chairs that you can see over the top of the rail. We had to look thru the bars to see the beach.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
We're so happy you had a great time and hope to have you back again someday soon! Thanks for your honest review. We are happy to share with the owner. Of course, making the balcony larger is out of our control but the furniture can be changed if the owner prefers. Having lower sitting chairs could be due to a safety concern. Hopefully the balcony bars didn't hinder you all having a great vacation. We appreciate your kind words, our team is happy to help any way we can.

They need to provide more supplies for longer stays.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
We're terribly sorry you were unhappy with the starter supplies provided. Unlike hotels, vacation rental units do not provide supplies such as paper towels, dish soap, washing machine detergent, etc. for the full length of a guests stay. The rental agreement clearly states what is provided and what guests may want to bring as our operation and protocol are up to industry standards. We apologize this put a damper on your vacation. If you were lacking a trash bag or needed an extra mornings worth of coffee, we would have been happy to accommodate you. A quick call to our office is all that's needed. We hope, in spite of this, you all had a great time and made memories to last a lifetime.

There are several excellent things I can say about Beach Manor 1005. The description of the condo is accurate regarding the location, layout, and amenities. We loved the size, especially the living room and the view was incredible. The beach area was beautiful and we loved each day on the sand. There are many good restaurants and activities in the area. The condo was clean when we arrived. Tops'l is a great resort area. Only thing I would improve on is the mattress in master bedroom. It needs to be replaced. It does not afford you a good sleeping experience. You sleep in dips on both sides.
Gibson Beach Rentals was great to work with. They keep you informed of items you need to know with their app. Check in was fast and easy. I would very much like to rent this unit again I would just hope that the mattress issue would be corrected by then.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
Oh no! We are terribly sorry to hear this! Please accept our apologies. We certainly understand your wanting a restful nights' sleep on vacation. We have had no complaints about the mattress thus far but are happy to share your thoughts with the owner. A mattress is the hardest thing to get everyone to agree on; everyone's opinions are so different. Next time, please allow us to help you pick a unit more suited to your needs for your next trip. We have many to choose from and would be happy to do so. We hope, in spite of the inconvenience, you all were able to enjoy your vacation.

This was our 5th trip to stay at Topsl Manor. Tara from reservation is always so accommodating and great to work with from start to finish. The courtesy call just checking to see that we made it to our room and that everything is great. The room is always very clean. Everyone at the entire resort is great and friendly. If there is ever an issue with the room they are quick to respond. It’s the best place on the beach to stay in Destin. Once again, Tara is the main reason I continue to book with Gibson Rentals.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
Awe shucks, Ms. Nancy, you're making me blush! I appreciate you, your kind words and how fun it is to help you pick the perfect condo for your girls trips. You are a pleasure to work with and make my job tons of fun. We are thrilled you love coming back, again & again and we truly appreciate our loyal, repeat guests! We can't wait for your next visit, hope the rest of your summer is wonderful.

The unit has a wonderful view with a great porch to sit on at night. It’s a bit dated on the inside, and the master bed is a sleep number bed, which is either a positive or a negative depending on your preference. Easy access to the beach, which was not too crowded. Great pool and everything is family friendly. Rental company was readily available and accommodating. Would stay again.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
We're so happy y'all had such a great time! Thanks for the review, we appreciate your honest opinion and are happy to share your thoughts with the owners.

2nd trip to the Destin-area & 1st trip to Tops'l Beach Manor. "Admiral's Quarters" has a great layout (3bd/3bath) & 2 private balconies w/ great beach views. Property matches the pics.
Location is great if you want more seclusion (last condo before 4 mile village)-I gave it a 4 because my family wanted to be closer to the action. Covered parking. Deadbolt was broken when we arrived, but was promptly repaired when notified - easy process. Some water pressure issues in one bath. Master bath is wonderful. Kitchen well stocked with cook/table/glass-ware.
Appreciated the free activities pass, which got us a free person on our fishing trip. 4 chairs on each balcony. 4 beach chairs included instead of the advertised 2, but one was broken. Teen loved the pool/hot tub in the evenings-and we could see from our balcony. PropMgtCo was great-checked in w/ us, good text comm, very responsive. Totally recommend.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
We're so glad y'all loved the condo and your time here. This is a great location for a little peace & quiet, away from the hustle & bustle of the city. We're happy to have been able to help so quickly with the unexpected broken lock, it's our pleasure to help with whatever is needed. The water pressure in that one bathroom is due to the specialty shower in there; made to be more gentle than usual. We're happy y'all had a great time and hope to have you join us again soon.

Great condo and property! The condo was very nice, beds slept great, everything was clean and the condo included everything you need for a week long vacation. The management company (Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.) was very profession and informative. The access, check-in and check-out was very simple. The property was very nice and clean, just a short walk to the beach, pool and restaurant. The property also includes other activities like an exercise room, put-put golf, basketball and tennis. We had a great view of the ocean and beach from the patio, and the firework show on the beach on Friday. The location of the property was good as well, just a couple minute drive to groceries, restaurants, golf, and shopping. Even had pizza delivered to our door one night from Fat Daddy's Pizza, good stuff! Had a great vacation, will definitely be back!

The view is fantastic! This condo is very clean and convenient.The beds are very comfortable. The kitchen has lots of dishes and cooking equipment. It is a bit crowded in the kitchen if more than one person in it because refrigerator and washer/dryer face each other. The closest pool is smaller and not crowded but the larger pool is very crowded; beach is very crowded in July when kids are off school. But the sand is beautiful and clean and ocean is so very clear.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
Sounds like you've found a perfect get-away spot! The beaches can be very busy here during peak season... everyone wants a piece of the Emerald Coast and we can't blame them. We're happy y'all enjoyed your visit and hope to have you back again soon.

I took our three boys (15,18,21 yrs old) to Tops'l for July 4th vacation. We have been to Tops'l before but we had not stayed in Beach Manor. Condo is spacious, great location, easy access from covered parking lot. Obviously these units are not new and there is some wear and tear but not enough to cause concern. The only concern with this unit is the lack of draining in the showers. Other than that issue, we were very pleased with the unit.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
Oh no! We are so sorry to hear about the showers. We would have been happy to fix that immediately for you, had we known. You may always call us with any issues or concerns, that's what we're here for. We're happy to report the showers have been taken care of now, thanks for the heads-up. We're happy y'all enjoyed your holiday and the condo. Come back & visit again soon!

We have stayed in other Beach Manor units in the past, but enjoyed this one more. The view was outstanding. I just hope that they don't let the nature preserve get developed any more. We did struggle with getting the fan working in the kids room with that different switch, but figured it out. God willing we will be back, and hope this unit is available.

This is a beautiful condo!
The staff at Gibson Rental were very helpful when several problems arose. There was a sub-tropical storm while we were visiting and they took care of storm preparations for the unit. They also coordinated the roof repair. Additionally, access to the Tennis Club was unexpectedly removed from this unit's amenities the week prior to our arrival. Gibson personnel rectified the situation for us.

Johanna, ya'll were so awesome to have in town! We could never thank you enough for your understanding and willingness to work with our team to help solve issues that arose late in the game.

Blessed w/perfect weather after storm Alberto. One rainy & rest were perfect days. Highly praise & recommend Gibsons Rental. Unit was "OK"...not the best but not the worst. The renovations are grt but falls short of a complete redo to make unit perfect !! Carpet is old & stained.. not gross but definitely brought quality of unit wayyyyy down. Son slept on sofa bed & wasnt comfortable. 2nd bedroom quite small so recommend bunk w/trundle to give some walking space. Kitchen utensils & cookware needs upgrade & replacement. Would stay in this unit if choices limited because beachview was spectacular & unit was clean/nicely decorated. Kudos to Gibsons for extra touches on welcome pkg & bath products !!!! Balcony furniture was nicer/higher quality than others in bldg which is an extra star for this unit too.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
Thanks a bunch for leaving us a review! We appreciate your kind comments about our GBR Team! We are glad to hear ya'll had a good time even though this may not have been the perfect unit you picked for your family. We do have a service order open regarding the carpets and are working with the Owner on more permanent resolution with that. Replacing flooring is unfortunately a much bigger project than a unit can endure in peak summer when everyone is staying back-to-back. We have ensured it is cleaned properly though. The second bedroom shares the same floorplan as the other 2/2 units in the building so while the bedrooms are smaller, you generally have larger living spaces and roomy kitchens. We did also create a service order to thoroughly check all of the kitchen utensils and cookware -- please let us know if that is ever a problem again as we keep these items on hand since they endure so much use and get deemed discardable so quickly in vacation rentals. We want to ensure you have everything you need for an enjoyable stay and are always happy to help. Please do come see us soon again, and we'll help you find the perfect place for your family next while saving some money by booking direct with your repeat renter discount.

We are 2 senior females that very much loved our stay at Beach Manor 1110. The condo is everything as described and more. What we most love is it has two master suites that both have front views of the gulf so we didn’t have to flip a coin for the better room. The amazing views from the main balcony are unobstructed both east and west. The kitchen absolutely had everything you would need. All was very clean and comfortable. The rental company was also excellent. It was so easy and efficient to make the reservation, make payment, check in and out. The owner also has 2 beach chairs and umbrella you can use which is great cause the beach service you pay for is not worth the money. We will definitely put this condo at the very top of our list. Kudos to Gibson and to the owner. Please keep us on your VIP list cause we will be back.

We're so sorry about the wind whistling at night! The door is being repainted this week and will have new weather stripping installed.

Excellent. We stayed at the same location 2 years ago with our son and his friend. Very impressed then. This time just the two of us. Loved it. Exceeds expectations & lovelier in person than in pics - and the pics are beautiful. All the details, the activities, the LOCATION. You guys think of everything. We used the party fishing boat coupon and had a great time. Crew and captain knowledgeable and helpful, boat very clean and well organized, saw dolphins, met some folks from Waukesha, caught fish, and ate some of the fish that night - that the captain cleaned. We were on the Destin Princess. We saw a movie at the local theater and went to the Donut Hole - their key lime pie is a MUST do! We just get one to go. EDEN STATE PARK was beautiful. Only $4/car. Gardens, trails, history - loved it! Sunsets from our patio were spectacular. Worked out in the Fitness Center regularly. Soaked up the sun on the emerald coast.
Thank you for a wonderful stay!

Another great fall break at Beach Manor. As always, Gibson is great. Loved the unit and the view was spectacular. My only complaint was how hot the master was compared to the rest of the unit. Need more AC in that room. But on the whole, a great sized unit. We had 6 guests and never felt crowded.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
We're so happy you all loved the unit and your time here! Unfortunately the duct work in the building cannot be changed to allow for additional air flow into any one room. Most units, especially directly on the beach, have one room that differs in temperature more so than others. Keeping the drapes closed does help quite a bit, especially in the warm afternoon hours. We hope it didn't inconvenience you all too much. Thanks for the review, we appreciate it!

Beach Manor @ Tops'l is a great location with amenities including a fitness room, pool, dry sauna and spa. Unit 1206 faces east, affording spectacular sunrise views of uncrowded white beaches. The unit has a well-stocked kitchen, comfortable living room seating, and is adequate for four adult guests. It does need, at the very least, a deep cleaning. The bedroom carpets and living room area rug are stained. Dirt and dust have collected along the edges and corners of the bedrooms. Baseboards and door facings, particularly around the doorknobs, are dirty. Walls are scraped and chipped in several places. The unit is showing its age and use. We would rent this unit again, however, with a few minor cosmetic/cleaning improvements. The rental company is professional, friendly, and efficient; the app is easy to use. We felt the fall special weekly rate is fair. We've stayed in several different units and buildings in Tops'l. The resort is convenient to restaurants and shops, some within walking distance. It is adjacent to a state park, providing hiking and biking opportunities. It's a great fall beach destination.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
Thank you for your honest and open review, it is appreciated. The fall is indeed the time when we deep clean our units; something that's impossible to do during peak season.

Having stayed at Topsl many times over the last 20 years, the only disappointment was not having access to the main fitness facility on the property.

We're so sorry Shane!! Each owner gets to choose whether or not they want to participate in the Fitness Center amenity package with Tops'l. Some units have the option, some do not.

We did wish the kitchen had been better equipped (small bowls, broiler pan, martini glasses, food storage containers martini shaker - I accidentally left mine in the dishwasher, the lighting in the bathrooms needs LED bulbs because it was very hard to see, especially for putting on makeup (easy fix), and the master bath shower has no shelf to put personal items. All small things that could make it even better.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
Terry we wish you would have given us a call/email so we could have helped with these things. We want you to have all you need and to feel 'at home' while here with us. It would have been our please to bring bowls and containers right over. We don't stock martini glasses, however, sorry about that one. We will be sure to connect with Beach Manor maintenance about the lighting in the bathroom, brighter bulbs can be an easy fix. We are also contacting the owner in reference to your suggestion for a master shower shelf also. Thanks for the input, we and the owners take it very seriously. We hope your time here was fantastic and that you'll visit us again in the future!

This condo was beautiful. Newly renovated, the place was clean and well designed. I think it has the best view in San Destin, as you can see from the Bay to the Gulf, and the san dunes in between, and easy beach access. Pools, restaurants, and bars at the resort were all nice.

We had a great time at this condo. The condo was just as pictured. The master bedroom did have a smell and the comforters and blankets should probably be laundered more often as they had an odor. I did not report this to the office, we just didn't use the comforter/blankets that had an odor and we left them in the bathtub for cleaning for the next person. Overall, I am very happy with the condo. I had to call the office because our wifi network wasn't working and it did take a full day for them to fix the issue, but I wasn't too bothered by this because I was on vacation and just enjoying the atmosphere. The teenagers on the other hand were happy once the wifi was fixed.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
We're so sorry you experienced these inconveniences! We would have been more than happy to remove the comforters and provide additional bedding for you, please let us know right away next time. Our inspectors are amazing at verifying the readiness of a unit before guest arrivals, we're sorry this was overlooked. We are moving for laundering ASAP! We also apologize for the tardiness of maintenance in reference to the wifi issues. Sometimes it's an issue with the cable service, not necessarily the maintenance techs. Hopefully the teenagers weren't too put out with the lack of wifi signals.

Our first time rental with Gibson: We were very pleased at their customer service and more pleased with the rental unit. The location was perfect. The large balcony (except for people throwing a few things down into it) was great with a nice view of the beach. The unit was clean and sufficient supplies for our stay.
Had a small issue with being temporarily locked out due to a electronic failure which will be resolved by Gibson.
I'll certainly be using Gibson on my next trip to NW Florida.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.

We really enjoyed the unit and the balcony. The picture windows gave us such a beautiful view of the ocean! All 6 of us would sit on the "veranda" and enjoy the beach sounds. (a squeeze but we all fit) The walk to the beach is a little long and there are steep stairs to access. For elderly folks, that is not so convenient. The only thing we didn't like: TOPSOL management does not allow any cash transactions (tiki bar, food, renting chairs on the beach, ice..etc) which was disappointing. You had to use an unit card(???) or credit card.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
Emma, thanks a bunch for your review! We are so glad you enjoyed the accommodations and were excited the weather was just right for ya'll. The Resort has always restricted payment to credit/debit cards, but we aren't real clear why either. It seems so odd since most people prefer cash. Regardless, we hope ya'll had a good experience and can come back next year (maybe with a prepped card on hand). Take care and see ya'll next year!

This is the second year in a row we have stayed in this condo. This year we were pleased to find many upgrades in the kitchen, flooring, and bathrooms. It was already a great place to stay but these upgrades made it even nicer. The condo is clean, is in a great location, and the people at Gibson provide great info on the area and are easily available to answer any questions you might have. Strongly recommend and we will be staying here again!

Beach Manor 1206 is a very nice property with great views of a private preserve, state park, and the associated uncrowded beaches. I travel with kitchen gear, but didn't need to use much of it because the kitchen was well-equipped. Internet was pretty lousy, dropping us unless we booted right by the router. Everything else was very nice. We especially appreciated the call from the Gibson folks letting us know that our condo was ready early. Great service!
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
We're happy to hear y'all had a wonderful time. Unfortunately with the influx of so many people to the Emerald Coast, the wifi signals do have a hard time keeping up every now and again.

This was our 4th year at Beach Manor and our favorite condo to date. We loved the decor, view and updated kitchen. The view is spectacular! I appreciated the filter on the shower heads. Sounds silly, but if you have ever stayed in the Destin area you know there is a scent to the water. 310 has filters on the showers to remedy this. Loved easy access to parking. Always a pleasure renting from Gibson Rental. We will be back next year!

The unit itself was fabulous. Super clean, well equipped, great parking. The management was superb, helpful but not overboard. Loved the app made everything so easy. The balcony was huge the view is just as advertised. So I realized the view was only upon standing, You also got what all the floors above you dropped off their balcony, lol. But still it was fabulous.
The TopsL resort itself was ok. The pools were clean and neat. The grounds themselves pretty drab. Be careful when ordering from the tiki hut and restaurant they apply a 19% gratuity on everything and it's overpriced anyway. Not the friendliest group of people either. Though on a better note it was really good food. And convenience won more than once. Also no cash, everything had to be but on a credit card that had to be closed at the end of the workers shift.
Location was good. Kids loved the tram service to the mall. The beach and water was fabulous. Not over crowded at all in front of our resort.
Will definitely look for Gibson rentals for now on!
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
We're sorry about the inconveniences at the tiki bar, unfortunately that is out of our control. Hopefully you and your family had a fabulous time in spite of it.

We were very pleased with Beach Manor 309. The unit was clean, beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked with cooking and storage utensils. We also used the sofa bed and still had room to get around the sleeping teenager. The Big Daddy free bicycle rental in Blue Mountain was a very nice extra. We biked over to Seaside for lunch and shopping. The only thing that was a problem was parking our oversized truck (F350 FX4); too large for the parking garage with only 6'5" clearance. So bring your smaller vehicles... ha ha! The balcony is a little on the small side, but it was still a nice place to hang out alone. I would highly recommend this unit. A VERY BIG THANKS to Emily ***** for getting us into this unit!!! Sorry we didn't get to stop by and visit.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
WOW! What a great review! This warms our heart to hear our hard work and focus pays off for our guests!

Our condo has a wonderful view of the beach from the 7th floor. We could see dolphins each morning. The condo was nicely decorated and all the appliances ran well. I would give this condo a 9.5 rating out of 10. Our only complaint is the mattress on the master bed needs replacement - not very comfortable & has seen a lot of use.
Overall, we had a fabulous 5 days!

We had one problem with the toilet when we arrived and it was fixed within hours. We hope to be back soon!

We had a great time. Weather was perfect and the condo was comfortable except for the tiny useless balcony. It did not enough room for even 3 people. The Tides has much larger balcony with more useful outdoors furniture. So, if you are the type who sits in the balcony in the evening to enjoy the view, rent a condo at the Tides.

We're sorry the balcony wasn't to your liking. Next time you're wanting to visit, give us a call and we would be happy to help you pick out just the right unit. Thankfully you all were able to enjoy the fantastic weather and gorgeous views! We hope to have you back again soon!

Instead of the cookie cutter vacation rentals we have had in the past, this was a pleasant surprise. Ceiling moldings, lovely paint colors throughout, all sorts of art works on the walls---oils, old prints, plates, etc., great kitchenware, pots and pans, and utensils, decorator materials, unique furnishings, comfortable seating. I've saved the best for last---the view. This building stands along side a natural preserve so no tall hotels buildings to obstruct your view for miles. (our unit was on the east side of the building.) Another huge benefit over properties further down the west side of the beach is this long line of concession beach chair and umbrella in front of which you are prohibited from setting up your own beach stuff. Here there is a designated spot to the east of Beach Manor's concession where you can spread out and get as close to the ocean that you want. Gibson had some nice touches too. We liked the unique bundling of towels on each bed, the plastic cups, cuzzies, and small insulated bag. Oh, forgot to mention, 3 TVs---one small, 2 extra large. If I have to mention a drawback, it would be that the patio was too small. We would like to have been able to dine outside.

The rental process was so smooth. I used the phone app for everything and never had any issues. I would rent from Gibson Beach Rentals again. Now about the condo. Beach Manor is directly on the beach and is a very clean building. As for the condo, photos do not do unit 309 justice. The unit had been updated and was absolutely beautiful. Everything was very clean and they had the small things for us to use that we didn't think about, like beach chairs. I think the biggest positive for us was the deserted beach. I highly recommend both Gibson Rentals and this condo for a smooth and enjoyable vacation experience.

We loved the area, it was very beautiful and serene. It was far enough away from the really busy tourist areas, but a 15-30 min drive from those areas if you want that area too. Condo was very nice. We had to get used to the beds, they are like laying on hard foam, not much give, but we adjusted. I would recommend a night light for the bathrooms so you don't have to turn on the big bright lights in the night or early morning. We would rent in this complex again, peaceful and the pictures were very accurate. We have already told several friends and family and they are wanting to go to!

This rental was perfect for a last minute getaway to the beach on a surprisingly beautiful 4-day weekend in late October. The Management company is first-rate and checks in periodically to make sure everything is going well. The unit is extremely clean, well-stocked and comfortable. Tops'l is a beautiful resort and the staff is extremely cordial and polite. Although the beach can be quite crowded during peak times (this is our 3rd trip to the resort), it is located immediately adjacent to Tops'l State Park giving you miles of almost abandoned beachfront immediately to the east of the condo. On this particular weekend there were very few people on the beach which was a shame, because the weather was ideal!

We very much enjoyed our stay at Beach Manor. The condo is quite nice, and the view couldn't be better. Everything was as expected (clean, maintained, and QUIET). The bathroom and kitchen are very functional and no complaints, but the owner did mention intention to renovate soon after our stay, which was late Oct 2016. Again, there was nothing wrong with the bathroom or kitchen--just a little out of date. Gibson rental staff were very responsive. We could not download the app for check-in, but they notified us by phone the day of check-in, several hours early, that the condo was ready and provided all information accurately and conveniently. I would certainly recommend staying at Beach Manor and would stay again myself. The beach is only steps away as well as 3 pools, a steam room, hot tub, and the nature trail on the grounds is nice for a quick run. I would highly recommend making use of the free bike rental. It is through the owner who was very nice and told us exactly where to go on the scenic bike ride through miles of lovely beach towns.

Three couples have been vacationing in the Destin area for the last several years. This year two of the girls had to have leg surgery on the same day. We spent a wonderful time at the Beach Manor which has a great view while they were recovering. One of the girls even made to the beach a couple of days. The view from our room was spectacular and as always the food was outstanding. There were a couple of items that needed repair and when we reported them someone came to check them out rapidly although the dishwasher was not able to be fixed while we were there.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
OH MY! It sounds like ya'll had quite an experience. We are glad to hear the girls are doing well and could enjoy their days at the beach. Aren't our beaches the best??? We are happy to hear ya'll enjoyed the local dining, too - the fresh seafood is unbeatable! We apologize you had any issues at all during your stay but truly appreciate you bringing them to our attention.

Whooohoooo! This is one of our favorite beachfront condos at Tops'l. These Owners are always doing something in here and making it stand above the rest. We are glad your family enjoyed the clean accommodations as well as our local area with so much to do - shopping, dining, nightlife, live music, festivals, and more! Tops'l really is a great place for families to visit with so much to do right on the resort without having to leave. Come see us again soon, and we'll get your return guest discount applied asap for you!

The rental was beautiful! Very well kept, property manager was extremely nice and helpful. Very close access to beach and amenities. Will definitely stay again! **side note - wish that the property had more clear signs on not being able to use your personal beach umbrellas in certain areas. Our unit came with umbrellas, but we had to be behind the rental umbrellas and could not block their view. This was hard with young children. Problem is we didn't know and had to move 2x. First time we were literally a foot on the Hilton side and had to move, 2nd time we were on our property but in front of the rentals. By this time, the day had passed and too late to rent one. Anyways, trip was wonderful and the property was beautiful. Just wish we had of known and we could of paid the rental.**

Thanks for the great review! We are happy the entire family enjoyed the condo and its perfect location to shops, dining, and events! We apologize that you experienced an inconvenience with the beach contractors; each year things change down there so it's so hard to keep up with their setup areas. We hope it wasn't too much of an inconvenience and hope the cooler was at least a little lighter when you had to move! We do appreciate your feedback and are glad to hear that our team exceeded your expectations. It means the world to us, and we truly appreciate your decision to book with Gibson. We hope ya'll can visit soon again, maybe when it is a little less crowded!

Beach Manor 404 exceeded all of our expectations! The condo was fabulous, stocked with lots of extras, and just steps from the beach! Gibson Beach Rentals app was so handy and included answers to all our questions during our stay...restaurants, attractions, etc. Would recommend both this condo and GBR for your vacation!

Beach manor was great! The only thing they need to add is an ice machine. Having an ice machine makes it very convenient when you are trying to ice down drinks to take to the beach. We very much enjoyed our stay and would more than likely stay there again. Also the beach was great! Not too crowded! Thanks.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
Thank you for leaving a review, and we are so happy you and the family had a wonderful time. This condo is the perfect rental with the right amount of space and location to so many shops, dining, events, etc. We hope the Beach Manor adds an ice machine in the years to come as well but for now, they have a few other building-wide projects they are considering that must be addressed soon. Thanks again, and we will see you soon again - hopefully sooner rather than later!

This unit is one-of-a-kind, and we are happy you got to experience it as well! These Owners take such care and sincere pride in the condo and it shows through and through.

We loved our stay at Beach Manor 404! The condo was clean, and had every item we could have needed (even an electric air compressor to put air in our floats!) The condo is beautiful and the patio is huge. We really enjoyed sitting on the patio in the evenings enjoying the view of the ocean.

Everything was just perfect...the 2 gorgeous views of the Gulf, the decor, the easy access to the beach, fully stocked kitchen appliances/utensils, etc. The location was perfect, the view was perfect, and the condo was just what we needed. We definitely plan on booking another stay next summer.

We had come to move our son to Tallahassee to FLU and decided to spend a few days at the beach. We had a great time in this condo! It is large and clean with everything you need. Our truck would not fit in the garage but we were able to leave it in the round about in front of the unit. One of our best stays on the gulf coast!

We have stayed at Topsl Tides in the past but this trip we wanted to stay at the Beach Manor. Unit 1206 was exactly what we are looking for. The unit was clean and in my opinion has the best view of the beach in Topsl. I love being able to see out into the Gulf of Mexico and an unobstructed view of 4 Mile beach looking eastward from the condo. We will definitely stay in Beach Manor again.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
This is perfect! Our Owners have this condo and purchased it for the same exact reason: those gorgeous, unobstructed views. You rarely find this in Destin anymore and Beach Manor 1206 provides the perfect experience. Thanks for choosing our services, and we hope to have you back in town again for another beach visit!

My 3 sisters and I brought our 88 year old mom to the beach for a combined Mother's Day and Birthday celebration. For most of us, it was our first time visiting the area. We loved the condo and found it to be conveniently located to everything. The folks at Gibson Beach Rentals were easy to work with and their app was so helpful and informative. We had no issues other than the garage being a little tight for the large Suburban we had rented. But we managed fine with just being careful and selective on a parking spot. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a clean, convenient place to stay in the Destin/Miramar Beach area. Thanks to the Gibson folks for making it all so easy and enjoyable!

Clean and up to date space. The bed is entirely too soft and uncomfortable, and the pillows aren't comfortable either. The lighting is awful. I had to apply my makeup in the living room by the lamp,and that still wasn't enough. Very dark in the bathrooms. This is a very nice snd up to date place, but not sure if we could handle staying again without being able to get a good night's sleep. But perfect if you like a very soft bed.

We could not have asked for a better place to stay for our vacation. This condo was clean, nicely furnished, excellent location, and beautiful view. We didn't have any problems with the condo itself and check in was super simple. The only reason I didn't leave all 5 stars was the fact that the property management being located off-site was not only confusing but frustrating. They list all the amenities included, so I was under the impression we could use them all where we were actually staying. When in fact we had to drive to a different location, which is also a gated area, the guy working the gate acted like he'd never heard of someone looking for this property management location, once in the gate, good luck, it's a maze. Also each little street has its own gate code. I had called prior to coming and was never given directions or any clue that it was so complicated to get to their office. All to find out it was a small DVD collection and to think we had to go thru all that to return it? Hardly worth it. Also had the same kinds of issues trying to check out clubs for the putt putt golf. Overall we had a wonderful stay, but Gibson could have provided more detailed information either in the condo, by email or even a simple phone call to aliveiate a lot of headache and the wild goose chase for the amenities that hardly seemed worth all the trouble.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
Thank you so much for taking time to leave your feedback. We are very happy to hear of your amazing experience in the Resort and condo itself. We apologize that you encountered some confusing issues with our office. We do clearly provide our office as well as unit-specific addresses in the rental contract at time of booking. Oftentimes our guests will give us a call just in case they aren't sure. We are always happy to help if anyone ever needs assistance in visiting our office just next door to the Tops'l Resort. We normally allow our Tops'l guests to leave any DVD's they have checked out in the unit as our housekeeping teams can easily return these to our office upon your departure so there is no hassle and extra driving from your side. The putt putt equipment is conveniently located right next door to the Beach Manor building in the Tides building on the ground floor Association office. Again, we are so sorry that you had some hiccups there but aren't quite sure how we could have provided more information from what was originally supplied in the paperwork and app. We are open to any and all ideas as it is one of our main focus points to make sure your stay is easy and not confusing! Hopefully we will see you again soon, and remember: we are only a phone call or email away if you ever have any questions!!!

Living area was nice and comfortable. Bathrooms were updated and spacious enough. Wi-Fi router was missing and 12 hours later we were given the user name and password for the wifi in the unit below us. It was very weak. One of the bedrooms was very warm and would not cool like the other rooms in the condo. Lights in the kitchen were not bright at all.

Was here for a business trip. Check in was super easy and the condo was fabulous except for two small things: (1) outside balcony light did not work so no evening reading while listening to the ocean, and (2) we never could get the WiFi to work...ever...not great for business needs. There was a number to call the WiFi service carrier but their hours of availability never coincided with ours and really??? Who on earth wants to deal with WiFi service carriers on their vacation?

The unit was better than expected! Everything was in great shape and clean, from the furniture to the dishes to the linens!

We didn't have any interactions with the management because everything went so smoothly, there was no reason to contact them.

We have stayed at Tops'l, specifically the Beach Manor, several times and it is truly the best place to stay in Destin. The location is awesome and the beach is less crowded than the other developments. You can walk on the beach along Four Mile Village and it is very secluded.

We enjoyed our stay at Beach Manor. The Condo was on the eighth floor which made the view of the ocean incredible. The building sits extremely close to the shore. The ocean is very warm and the sand really does look like sugar. The beaches are very clean and the water so clear you can see the fish.
The unit, number 0811 was very nice. The furniture is getting a little tired but still looks good. They really do need a new mattress in the master bedroom. It sags in the middle. The twin beds were not great but okay. Unit was well stocked. They had two umbrellas and two chairs in the unit for our use.
We loved the keyless entry as well as how easy Gibson made the entire process. We were very impressed with them. Nothing went wrong with anything while we were there so we never had any verbal exchange with Gibson. Very smooth transaction from start to finish. Thank you for a lovely vacation.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
Thanks so much for your feedback! We are so glad to hear you enjoyed yourself and the overall experience in the unit. The owners have read your review and were very disappointed to hear that you felt the king mattress was sagging in the middle since it is under 6 months old and both twin beds were replaced less than a year ago. They will definitely be looking into it to make sure it is not defective. They were hoping that since the previous reviews had been very favorable you would have enjoyed a comfortable nights sleep. Thank you for your comments - it is always appreciated to make sure our guests receive all the comforts of home!!!

My family and I loved Beach Manor 1206. The condo is beautifully appointed, clean and very welcoming. The king mattress in the master bedroom was extremely comfortable.

Spectacular! I would return in a heart beat.

My sister and I decided a few months back that a vacation was needed! We (I) (haha) searched and searched for the "perfect" place for us to stay. I stumbled across this rental and the pictures just said it all. So, we finally decided upon this property and I don't regret it a bit. We walked in on our check-in day and it took our breath away. The view was AMAZING. The layout was nice. The master bed was HEAVEN. (I'd love to know what kind of mattress that is!) The master bath was nice, as well. I loved the beautiful, spacious shower. Everything was wonderful. Although, the elevators went out one day and we had to climb 8 flights with our hands full of beach chairs, umbrellas, etc. That was definitely not ideal, but they fixed them within a few hours. The only thing about the unit I would change is the early check-out time, but other than that, I was very pleased. And so was my little sister. It was a great get-away.

The only real issues was the beach, people with there own umbrellas and chairs had to walk to the end of property line to set up.
I didn't think that was right if you wanted close or in the middle of property you had to rent there stuff. I wont be coming back again for that reason.

In my opinion, this condo is even better in person. The pictures do not truly do this place justice. This was our first vacation to the gulf coast area.

This was an updated unit and very nice But the complex needs renovation. Overall our stay was nice. check out is 10am and that was early. Usually its 11 at hotels. The Gibson staff were great. They called once we checked in to make sure everything was good. The gibson app was very helpful HIghly recommend that.
Guesta need to bring salt and pepper, extra toilet paper and papertowels. Dont know if i would stay at this rental again due to the side view of the gulf. May try another gulf facing unit with gibson.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
Thank you for your review. We apologize the state of the complex, but happy that you still liked the unit's interior. We would have been happy to arrange a later check-out time if we would have been notified - 11:00am would have been perfectly fine as it still gives our housekeeping and inspectors plenty of time to attend to the unit after your departure and before the next arrival. When you book next time, also let us know your preference for a direct Gulf view and we would be happy to help you find the best one for you.

Condo was just as described and pictured. Decor was very pretty and relaxing. The Condo was clean, quiet, and comfortable. The property was very nice and clean as well! The location was close enough to shops and restaurants, but far enough not to hear any traffic. My kids stayed in the room with the twin beds and slept very well, the condo seemed very sound proof. My husband and I loved the patio door off the master bedroom lo lay in bed and listen to the waves. It was just a perfect Spring Break getaway, we loved it!

Our stay was very relaxing and quiet. My only complaint was that the master bed needs a new mattress and pillows. Other than that everything else perfect!
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.

Our over all stay was wonderful, great location, beautiful weather and beach. There were just a couple issues that need to be fixed, 1) one of the beds in the guest bedroom is broken and needs to be fixed. 2) the elevator always seemed to be getting repaired. All and all we were satisfied and I would stay at this condo again.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
Thank you for your response.The elevator issue has been resolved in Beach Manor and we are working on the bed situation. We are glad you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you again next time for a repeat guest discount.

We have stayed at Beach Manor on 3 previous occasions and we think it is the best value and location on the beach. Unit 310 is a wonderful,comfortable,clean condo. The master bedroom bed is a high quality foam bed, advertised as a TempurPedic bed. The kitchen was well equipped. The only thing I could suggest to improve would be to get a quality bed in the guest bedroom. The one in there now is so old that the springs squeak. So this is a good condo for a romantic getaway for a couple.

Hey there! We are happy to hear that you had a great romantic vacation. September is a great time to come down and enjoy the tail end of summer!

This is the second year we have stayed at this unit and we absolutely love it. The condo has upgraded finishes and the beds/furniture are comfy. The views are amazing - they face the residential/park beach area to the East of the property making you feel like you are on a seculed beach. The pools and beaches are fantastic! The location of the property is also great - away from the busy area in Destin, but still close to areas to shop and dine. We will certainly be back next year.

My family and I stayed at Tops’l Beach Manor August 27-31.
The condo - Check in is super easy. We rented through Gibson Beach Rentals and they provided the door code to the condo. There is no check in process, you just show up at the condo at check in time. If you need to arrange an earlier check in, make sure to call Gibson. It will depend on whether the unit is being vacated the day of your check in.
The condo itself was great. When you walk in, the large windows opposite the door showcase the view of the beach!! It was a beautifully clear day and the view was awesome! The condo was tastefully decorated and contained everything we needed for our stay. It was cleaned very well and there were enough towels for our stay. There is a washer/dryer in the unit and the kitchen is fully stocked. Some of the cookware and cooking utensils could use some freshening up. The bed in the master was a bit uncomfortable.
Location – The unit is located in Tops’l Beach and Racquet Resort which consists of several condo units and villas. Beach Manor is right on the beach. The resort rents chairs and umbrellas and sets them up right on the waters edge. Two chairs and an umbrella rents for $28/day. The unit of our condo also provided two chairs. Bring your own beach towels. The beach is private to the resort only so it was not overly crowded even though we were there over Labor Day weekend. We did not spend any time at the pool but there are several. The main pool looked a little crowded but the Beach Manor pool was hardly used. There is a little restaurant and a bar at the main pool.
Overall, a great stay.

We loved our stay at Tops'l Beach Manor, and would definitely be interested in renting this unit again sometime. Everything was very clean, and the decor was nice. Condo was plenty spacious enough for our family of four. There were some issues with the elevators (on check-out day, both were down, so we had to lug everything down the stairs) but other than that small glitch, everything was great. Great location that is beachfront, but still close to the shopping malls and Baytowne Warf.

We rented 1206 Tops'l Beach Manor for our annual summer family vacation (2 adults, 2 kids age 13 & 9). This condo was absolutely terrific. The finish, décor and amenities were top notch. We loved the view from the 12th floor overlooking the beach. Easy access to three pools, tiki bar, and of course the gorgeous Sandestin beach. Condo was clean, ready, and well equipped when we arrived. It was very quiet in this unit and building. The Tops'l complex is close to all Sandestin and Seaside attractions. It is a ways from downtown Destin which I considered a plus.

We enjoye our stay at Beach Manor, the view captures ur attention as soon as you enter the condo. The furnishings were comfortable and we had plenty of room to spread out, there were 6 of us. The walk to the beach was easy and the people we encountered were all very helpful and friendly

The condo was spotless and beautiful! My husband is very picky about rooms smelling musty at the beach but even he was impressed! The deck was huge but open to the neighboring unit and had an angled distant view of the ocean. The condition of the condo made up for it. We would definitely recommend this unit!

Everything about this trip was beyond expectation. The beach was pristine and the water unbelievably clear. The "brelly" boys worked with us and made allowances for the rainy days. The golfers in our group loved the courses in the area. The shoppers could not have asked for more with the convenience of the outlet mall as well as the various shops on 30A. We all are ready to come back as soon as possible.

The condo was beautifully decorated. The walk to the beach wasnt bad at all and I would only suggest the ability to load a cart with beach items and be able to walk it to the end of the sidewalk, which is what we did but an employee fussed at us for doing it. :(
Gibson Beach Rentals staff was great throughout the entire process of booking.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
Thank you for taking the time to give us such a wonderful review, we are most happy that you enjoyed the decorations as the owner recently did some exquisite remodeling! I will pass along your suggestion to add beach carts to the Home Owner's Association Manager and see if this is something that can be done for our guests and guests in this building in the future as that is a great idea to have not only luggage carts, but beach carts when your room is steps from the beach.

Enjoyed the great view, comfy furniture, flat screen TV's, new washer/dryer, etc. Only untimely problem was the fridge/freezer "died" 4 days prior to our departure; owner plans to replace.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
Thank you for your feedback. Beach Manor 811 is a great unit and loved by many. We apologize for the fridge/freezer troubles, but are excited to let you know the Owner purchased a brand new, stainless steel replacement within a few days of the incidence. They are also finishing up repainting the entire unit for a clean, polished look. We hope to see you again in 2014!
