Great location with even better views. Easy access to the beach and easy access to the shuttle that takes you to the Village. Condo was clean and had everything we needed. Could use some cosmetic updates, but nothing that would deter us from coming again.

As expected but definitely could use a reno. Its a little dated compared to other units in the building. Not sure I'd come back to this unit but nothing to complain about. Overall it was in good shape.

Great place to stay with beautiful views!
Our only negative is that the unit did not have much beach equipment. We flew into Florida and did not drive, so we could not bring our chairs and umbrella that we use on the beach. The unit did come with 3 beach chairs and 1 umbrella, but they were not very nice. You have the option to rent chairs and umbrellas from the hut on the beach but that was an additional charge $$$ (not included with the unit).

Overall, we enjoyed this condo. We love the Sandestin property, beach and amenities. We’ve stayed there year after year and we always have a wonderful time. As for this specific property, the bunk beds are awesome, my daughter loved them!
It is time for some upgrades in this condo, though. The coffee pot needs to be replaced (there is sand/dust built up inside of it if you look inside, so I had to go buy coffee every day). It is time to update the furniture, guest bathroom and the decor, as well, but we were still comfortable overall. We loved the pool, but there was no heater which was a little too cold for the fall weather. Baytown wharf has grown and is amazing!
At the end of the day, it was a great experience due to an awesome resort and great staff!

We had an amazing stay in Beachside II 4333! The condo was spacious and the 2 balconies gave us great views! The kitchen had everything we needed (although the toaster was ancient. Not a big deal - we were able to toast pop tarts! But not great if you like your morning toast each day!). The beds and living room furniture were comfortable and clean. The decor was really nice - definitely felt like someone's vacation home! The only caution I have is the shower in the master bathroom. It is not a walk-in shower, and in fact has a pretty large side to step over to get into the shower. We did not have a problem. But I would not recommend for my elderly parents or anyone else with mobility issues. Again - not a big deal for most; but something that might matter to some people. The resort itself was fantastic and the people at Gibson were awesome to work with. We hope to be back next summer!

This place was great in our opinion. The location, right on the beach was outstanding. The beach was very clean, likely the best white sand beach I have ever been on. The room was clean and very nice overall. If I had any recommendations for the Owner, it would be to upgrade the TV's to Smart TV's to allow guests to use subscription based services such as Netflix to watch movies if they desired. As far as the overall facility, it was unfortunate that the pool was closed most of the time due to all the construction happening on the exterior facade. Regardless, overall experience was great. Definitely recommend this place and would absolutely go back in the future. Also like being at this end of town, the east end, versus the west end, though we did drive west every night for dinner.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
Hi William,
We love to hear that you made the most of your vacation. Our beaches are definitely to die for. I am sure the owner will take your recommendation into consideration. The short time that the pool was closed was unfortunate, but we always notify our guests of any construction before booking. We hope to see you back again!

Overall good experience, great location, comfortable, clean property very well maintained, responsive and very friendly staff.
A few things could be better for people who are flying vs, coming by car.
Typical industry standard check out time is 11am. Your check out time as 10am is too early for people who has later flghts. In our case a cleaning staff knocked at 9:15am and was sitting next to the entrance door until we left. Was annoying. Also, there are no beach towels. Once again, it does not matter for people coming by car, but packing beach towels in a small carry-on is not a good option, especially we were not notify that beach towels are not available. Would be nice to know it in advance, and especially would be very helpful if office has beach towels per request for guests not coming by car.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
Mila we are very sorry to hear this. We feel we are providing our guests within industry standards. We do take your opinions and suggestions seriously and will forward to the owner's of our company.

Great rental company to work with. Nice place to stay with 2 balconies (one in TV room and one in master BR). This condo unit also provided 5 chairs and an umbrella for their guests to use, which saved on renting chairs. The great thing about this complex, that I would have never thought about, was the see thru plexi glass instead of rails on the balcony. You can sit on the balcony and see straight thru without any obstruction. Bigger plus than you realize. Great Sunrise views and the firework display on the beach was directly next door and we stayed on the balcony and watched the entire show!!!
The grounds were safe and plenty to walk around and see.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
WOW! What a fun trip!!! We are so, so happy ya'll had a blast. We love the 2 balconies with this unit; that really helps set it apart from the rest. Watching fireworks from the balcony sounds even more awesome, and we agree, those new glass see-through balconies are the BEST! Come see us again for your return guest discount - any time, any unit!

Condo was beautiful, view was amazing! We had a broken beach chair and it was replaced the same day. One suggestion I would make is for Gibson to give more information about Sandestin and activities it offers. We had never been there and it took some time to figure the resort out.

One of the nicest condos we have ever stayed in. Great views, nice deck which faced east and made the afternoons very comfortable. Furnishings were first rate. One minor issue was washing machine filled with water very slowly but that was not a big deal. The Gibson personnel onsite helped me with an important document that i received via email while there. I would stay here again and definitely recommend it.

The condo was very nice and completely met our needs. My only complaint is about the building and resort in general....there is no recycling available-- that seems terrible that a large building like this would not recycle. But, otherwise, the condo was perfect and we have always loved the resort and beaches in Sandestin!
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
We are so very happy that you enjoyed yourselves! You picked one of our best units here at Beachside II! We, too, are sad that Sandestin did away with recycling a few years ago. We were never explained as to why they made the decision but strongly support it if they ever review the idea to bring back the service! Thanks again, and we hope to have you back down very soon!

Was a great time, everyone loved staying right on the beach and with the balcony overlooking the beach was awesome.
Submitted on Jul 18, 2014
The condo unit was immaculate and contained essential items needed for cooking and living. We appreciated being somewhat out of the very busy parts of Destin but close to grocery and outlet shopping. The pool and beach accesses were great. Seeing fireworks from our balcony, watching beach weddings, parasailing etc. were especially delightful. Travel from northern states through Alabama and Florida was AWFUL.....going 100 miles in three hours time hinders our desire to return even though once in Destin we had a great time.
