Absolutely loved our stay! It was perfect for me and my girls, especially having two bathrooms, beach chairs/toys and a full Kitchen for meals indoors!! Would absolutely go back!
We stayed here for our honeymoon and it was the best. Having the golf cart really gave it the resort feeling! Clean place with great amenities & location.
We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful condo! There were so many things we loved, including the cleanliness, the comfortable bed, the plantation shutters, and the balcony furniture. The granite countertops and stainless steel fridge were great touches as well. Staying in the village was perfect for us, especially enjoying meals at the Marina on weekends and being close to shops, stunning pier sunsets, and the Wednesday night concerts—all without needing to drive. The golf cart was a fantastic bonus for getting to the beach and grocery store. We can’t wait to return!
The unit was beautiful and the description is perfect. We loved using the golf cart to go to and from the beach. Everything worked well in the unit. Full kitchen. Washer and dryer worked well. Bed was comfortable. It is very close to the Baytown Wharf. The host was very easy to communicate with and was very responsive. Would recommend this unit.
Beautiful and very clean condo with great amenities, the best being the golf cart! The pilot house is right next to the village and we didn’t need to use our rental car during our stay. Pilot house also has a beautiful pool on the 3rd floor. Phyllis was our point of contact before our arrival and once we arrived and she was sweet and accommodating. Highly recommend! Beautiful place for a couples weekend, girls trip or family vacation. Only 1 con: if you have a hard time walking this condo would not be for you it is a very long walk from the elevator to the room.

Perfect
The condo was in wonderful condition and we enjoyed being here. We stay at the Pilot House a couple times a year and have always had a wonderful experience. The golf cart was great! Also, this particular condo had some beach chairs and sand toys in the closet, which was super! I highly recommend this condo!
This location was perfect for a getaway. We could have walk everywhere and the golf cart made getting around so much fun. I would definitely recommend staying here- hopefully, we’ll be back soon!!!
We really enjoyed our stay at this property. The unit was very clean and just as described. Excellent, convenient location for the Baytowne Wharf area and very easy access to the community pool. The golf cart was an added bonus that we thoroughly enjoyed! We will never stay in Sandestin again without a golf cart! Thank you!

WE enjoyed ourselves very much.. a bit noisy with construction next door.Unit was clean and great size for the 2 of us. Having a Golf Cart made our trip even more enjoyable. Probably stay again
The condo was very nice although the HOA was doing maintenance on the balcony so we could not use it as we hoped. The property manager was very apologetic. The pool area was great and the Baytowne Wharf area was special.
The unit was very clean and well furnished. Plenty of towels. The only negative to this unit is the noise on the balcony. You can hear the very large air conditioning units for the hotel all day and night and they are loud.
We enjoyed our time at Sandestin. The golf cart saved the trip. Could not sit on the balcony and have a conversation, noise from air conditioning unit at Effie hotel. The sofa and chairs at the bar are very uncomfortable. The bed was excellent. Kitchen had very good cookware. Would prefer a keurig coffee maker.. Phyliss was an excellent hostess.
The condo was well appointed and had everything we needed for our stay. The only thing was that we were totally unprepared for the "5 Mile Hall". If you are young and in somewhat good health, it's a nice walk. My husband however has a heart condition and he was out of breath every time. He did however get alot of great exercise. the end. He dalot
My husband and I stayed here for our 15 year anniversary. We normally stay in a condo with beachfront view. I decided to do something different this time. I must say this was a great experience. Long walk to 531 but it was worth it; we needed that walk. The golf cart is a MAJOR PLUS!!!! The rooms were so clean and smelt so good! Checking in was also a MAJOR PLUS. We got an email on what to do and how to get in. You don’t have to go stand at a desk to check in. Everything is ready upon arrival; just go straight to your room. It is so much going on inside the village, you don’t even have to leave. (Shopping, Dining, Entertainment) We enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back!!!!
The property was nice and comfortable. At first it was overwhelming with parking codes, door codes, entry codes, and a 157 step walk to get to the condo. But we did get used to it after a few days. Enjoyed the golf cart and had a chance to ride on the entire property to see the neighborhoods, etc. Attended a Bal Harbour pop up and WOW, that was amazing! Ate at Ovide which was very nice, and enjoyed our stay. There are many suggestions we could give, but all in all it was good.
