We did not stay in 517, we decided we wanted a ocean view room and the staff was very accomodiating and we switched to unit 305. Some of the light switches and garbage disposal didn't work, but other than that the unit was clean and very very comfortable, we loved it and would go back soon if we were not almost 1000 miles away. The elevator wasn't operating properly and I got stuck in the elevator with an housekeeping employee, she called someone and he got us out quickly. The staff were all very nice and helpful, the location fantastic, great fun to be had. More...

The staff was immediatley available, kind, attentive, professional and put the keys in my hand in less than five minutes. The condo was immaculate, the decor beautiful, lots of space for our big family. The balcony view is gorgeous especially at sunset. We walked to the beach in three minutes :). There are two pools and hot tubs so you can have your pick. Everything you need is within 2 miles stores, gas, restaraunts, souvenir shops, fishing. Fantastic!

My visit was wonderful. Please do not change anything about the Islander experience. You are my home away from home. The Islander is perfect, just as it is. I have been visiting your property since 1987 and in that time span of from then til now (22 years), I have only missed coming 3 of those years. You are the absolute best and we have many special and fond family memories thanks to the Islander. More...

This was our third stay at the Islander and we are never disappointed! The atmsophere there is very laid back and relaxing-people barbecueing out, playing shuffleboard, all the things you should do on a vacation. The staff are very helpful and friendly. The condos are clean, attractive. and stocked with everything you could need. What makes the Islander most unique is its amazing view of the Jetty where you can watch the boats come in from sailing, walk down to snorkel or just watch the sunset. The only drawback is the beach is very crowded due to the effects of the last hurricane. Improvements have been made since our last visit to allow for sunbathers since our last visit though. We look forward to returning next year to the Islander. More...

We have becoming to Destin and to the Islander for years, but this is the first time we had stayed in this unit. We loved all the updates, the free wifi and kids especially liked their colorful guest room. We truly enjoyed being removed from the bustle of the elevator. We spent many evenings on the balacony enjoying the beautiful views of the sunset over the water. We love to stay at this condo again!

However the vacation was not perfect. Only one of the hot tubs was operational. And despite the cool temperatures, the staff refused to turn on the pool heater stating that it was broken. That is funny, it is broken every year. More...
