We lucked out finding Huntington by the Sea, a hidden gem! We have stayed here multiple times and will continue to come back. We love the convenience of your own beach area with chairs and umbrella, the pool access, and perfect location to all things Miramar and Destin. We traveled with teens and could watch them swim in the pool from our balcony. The location is perfect!
The location is very convenient, the whole space was very clean, plenty of towels and all the little things that you need. It was a very short walk to the beach and we really enjoyed the second floor view. We will be back!
We loved 201. Highly recommend to any family. Easy access to the beach and pool which was so great bc we could watch our kids swim without having to go to the pool. Well stocked kitchen, comfy beds, and plenty of linens on hand. We loved it and will definitely be back!
We were there for a short weekend mother/daughters trip and enjoyed the stay - it was a great place! Shops/grocery stores were a very close drive. The condo was beautiful - everything top notch. The view was outstanding. There is a wonderful white sand beach out front with (sometimes) chairs to use. We even saw some baby dolphins playing! It was easy in and out of the condo - had an elevator for use down on the other end. The only downside was the pool that was 'heated' was extremely cold, and we were told we wouldn't have wifi and tv available during our stay due to something (can't remember what), and would be reimbursed 25/night for our 3 nights stay, but we were not. Even so, we would definitely go back.
We loved this condo. Perfect location. Has everything you need very clean. Loved hearing and seeing ocean from master bedroom even from the kitchen. Beautiful beach so clean steps away from the condo. We definitely want to come back to this location.
This was our 2nd time renting the exact same condo. The beach in front of this rental is just occupied by its guests. Not over crowded to where you have to worry about losing the kids in a crowd. We will be back.
This was our first stay at Huntington by the Sea and we were very happy with all it included. Great location and the condo was very clean and nicely appointed. My only complaints (and they are small ones) is that the bath towels, and the wash cloths should REALLY be replaced with new. Old, thin and scratchy! The sofa and love seat are getting to the end of their life, too. If not replaced, at least clean it. But those are only things I can complain of. The bedrooms very nice and it was a very spacious unit. Loved how it overlooked the pool and beach was a super close walk. We will be back!
View and location are outstanding. The condo is clean, updated and well equipped. The beds are comfortable.
A big negative during our stay was that the heater for the pool was not turned on. We were told that condo association chooses not to turn on until the end of December. If the pool is too cold to use the heater should be turned on so that guests can enjoy it. The condo over looks the pool and we did not see one person in the pool during our stay.
The location canât be beat. Smaller building meant beach felt like a private beach with every chair directly in front of the ocean. Great setup for watching the little ones while enjoying the view yourself.
The unit was very nice and updated, but there were a couple of less than ideal things. First, the master bed was the worst mattress we ever laid on. The springs were so worn out that we literally felt ourselves rolling to the sides. Slept terrible all week. Second, the unit doesnât have a w/d in it so had to use the pay per wash. Lastly, the cleaning was not the best. We had spiderwebs on some of the windows/blinds and floors were dirty.
Overall would return... once they update the mattress!
We loved the location with a great view of the pool and the ocean! The condo was really clean, which is always important to us. Beds were comfortable. Luggage carts and an elevator were SO helpful! The beach itself was amazing and not crowded like some nearby ones because we were staying at a smaller property. Having two lounge chairs and an umbrella set up for us each day was awesome! We highly recommend staying here and will be back ourselves.
From what we could tell on the internet, everything looked like it would meet our needs and meet our expectations. Well, it was exactly as we expected, maybe even a little better!! Thank you for helping us have a pleasant stay at Miramar Beach!
very cute place! it was quiet & clean. beautiful view, saw dolphins flip the very first day! easy beach access and close to tons of shops and restaurants. loved it here & would come again.
Upon arrival at the Condo neither of the toilets were filling back up after they were flushed. I noticed the water valves to both of them were off, so I turned them on, but instead of the talks filling the valves just started leaking water, so we shut them back off and called Vacasa. The first person I talked to got a maintenance man out right away, however he said he couldnât fix it and that they would have to call a plumber. An hour later I get a call saying they canât get a plumber out that evening, and they would have to relocate us to a comparable property. After 30 minutes she sent me to a link of a nice property, but it was NOT comparable, and was FAR from the public beach (Huntington was directly on the beach with complimentary beach service). I told her it wasnât comparable at all, but she said thatâs all she could do. It was already getting late and we didnât have working toilets, so I told them to give me the access code and we would go to the property for the evening, and return to Huntington the next day after the plumber fixed the issue. Three hours later and multiple calls and texts we finally got a code. At this point it was 11 pm and we didnât want to leave. The next day I had to call again to tell them I absolutely had to have a plumber there right away. They kept telling me they couldnât find a plumber, however the first one we called said they could come take care of it. I tried telling Vacasa this but they said they werenât on their list, but guess who showed up a couple hours later?? The guy that wasnât on their list!! The plumber had to shut water off to the whole complex (according to the complex maintenance woman the individual units donât have shut offs!) This caused a huge uproar!! Owners were calling Vacasa and the complex office telling them that the water had to be turned on immediately. The complex maintenance had the nerve to try to get the plumber to only fix one of our two toilets, even though the water was only off for 20 minutes. Not only were they banging on the door, but the woman from Vacasa had the nerve to show up to tell the plumber to hurry upđĄ. I was infuriated!! They couldnât care less about our issues until others were inconvenienced and started getting owners involved, and then they show up at our door! What I find strange is that this unit was rented out knowing that both toilets were not working (hints the valves being off). So are these not inspected before the next tenants arrive? Obviously not!
We have stayed in this specific unit in this condo multiple times. The unit is always as expected. This time, for some reason, the coffee pot was missing from the coffee maker- we had a new one the next day!! Beach is great, pool is great, location of condo to restaurants, grocery, shopping is great!
