Nice unit, in the crowded heart of modern Destin. Great access to everything. City noises, lots of…read morehigher-rise condominiums around so not a "wild and scenic beach" but very nice as an urban beach experience. Destin heading to be Fort Lauderdale. Be forewarned that the umbrella and chair rental people will cover the beach solid with their pricey rentals by 6:15 am, leaving no beach front space for your own set up. Appears that they put out more chairs than they rent, one might think, to force residents to rent from them. Also there are threatening and highly, questionably, legal, signs along the "property line" that herd beach users into their overcrowded rentals. One of those signs was placed in the zone below the high tide line in violation of Article X of the state constitution. So take into consideration in selecting your beach vacation site, that you will deal with that. Also a $15 charge to use the pool that was unexpected. Take these things into your calculations and just be aware. Very nice spot to walk to the beach front Back Porch restaurant and dine on the beach.

I had stayed here two times before this last stay. I paid 360 a night for unit 812. We ended up…read morefinding out we were infested with cockroaches (German). They were all in our luggage since there aren't any luggage racks to sit them on. We had to throw all 3 suitcases away and a backpack! I went to complain and they moved me to a much better condo, modern, clean and well maintained. They never offered to reimburse me. I was hoping they would do the right thing but NO! The thing that got me was she said it was infested AGAIN on the phone with the manager! I couldn't believe it! She said they sprayed and the renters before me didn't say anything. Lucky me! It takes more than one spray to get rid of these pest, they are in the walls and a matter of time before they overtake the whole place! They micromanage everything you do! No drinking in the pool, no vaping or smoking, you have to go out to the road! If you choose to bring your own beach chair, you have to sit behind all of the rental chairs, far back from beach

My family has been going to these condominiums since we first started vacationing to Destin in…read more1997. Throughout the years I've stayed in almost every condo on the first floor, and 209 and 211 on the second floor. Every time it has been wonderful. Check in is at 4, which is kind of late. But if you show up early and your room has already been cleaned and inspected they will almost always allow you in. The front desk staff is extremely friendly and helpful. I've never had a bad experience with them. They always greet you with a smile and are super kind. Almost every condo has a king size bed, 2 bunk beds, and a pull out couch, so you can easily fit 6 comfortably. There is a full kitchen with cookware, 2 bathrooms, and one shower. From the living area there's a back porch that overlooks the gorgeous powder white sand and emerald coast. You're provided with 2 chairs and an umbrella. On the first day you go to the beach you can reserve your spot for the week so I would recommend getting to the beach early the first morning. There's also a pool and hot tub in the complex for when you need a break from the beach. One huge plus of staying here is that there is only 3 stories. The beach area behind Destin Beach Club is reserved for only residents so the beach is never overly crowded at this condo. Since you're right on scenic highway 98, you're close to everything there is to see and do in Destin. There's a plethora of restaurants, souvenir shops, and shops. You're also right next to the Destin harbor and all the new things it has to offer. Because of the great staff, amenities, view, and less crowded beach area, I would definitely recommend Destin beach club to anybody who is traveling down to Destin. Absolutely love this place, so many happy memories. Can't wait to be back!

Was not impressed with a few things here. The first being the carpet in our room. If you aren't…read morewilling to have the carpets cleaned, then remodel with wood or tile floors. You have sand, humidity, age, and stains everywhere - recipe for disaster in terms of this carpet. I hated having to wear shoes inside our room due to being grossed out. While in the bedroom, i had a cockroach crawl over my foot, and I was incredibly disgusted. The facility is obviously older, but the carpet situation needs to be addressed for sanitary reasons. Other than that, great beach access, and private chairs/umbrella are provided. Helpful staff, and great balcony view. Everything else was clean.

If you want to LOVE where you live, this is the place to be. The office staff and maintenance are…read moresuper helpful and responsive. The apartments are new and gorgeous inside and out. The Olympus staff hosts a variety of fun events that make it easy to socialize and make new friends. The community is centrally located in Destin with instant access to Highway 98. Olympus Emerald Coast is the place to live if you want everyday to feel like a vacation!

This company has so many hidden fees in their 20 page lease. There are many addendums to justify…read moretheir added costs. One instance is their offer of a valet service. It is not an offer with an option to opt out. It is a mandatory $30 monthly fee, whether you use the service or not. If you do use the service and work beyond the time you need to move your garbage can back indoors, you will get a violation fee. Likely $50-100. They require you to use their business apps to pay rent, utilities, package service, etc. These total more than $20 per month. All in all you will pay nearly $1k per year extra on top of the high rent. The water treatment stench is horrible. Don't get a unit in the vicinity of that because YOU WILL experience the stench daily. Only upside to this place is its location. Also it is not senior or kid friendly. No accommodations for seniors as in access to upper floors or grab bars for safety in bathrooms. Tub/shower is very high to step into and is an accident waiting to happen. Keep track of your deposit, they are required by law to send an itemized statement via certified mail to inform of any claim to deduct a portion of your security deposit. They don't. Be aware of that. Also pet deposit is $500 per pet and $40 pet rent fee. Buyer beware. I am sure I will get a response from the leasing office saying I am a disgruntled former tenant. I am. They harassed us endlessly and accused us of smoking in the unit without giving us any factual evidence of the accusation. Walk around the property, there are cig butts everywhere including near the leasing office. Not a positive atmosphere IMO.
