Have been staying here for 25 years ( different units each time). There were a few issues with this unit when we arrived, however, I notified the front desk and issues were resolved within an hour. The beach chair set up is so nice, pool area very nice and love the free movie rentals. Also, tennis/ pickleball courts!

First time staying at HSRC. Very nice property in a good - gated - location. The unit was decorated very nice and was clean. Great view of the gulf. Only complaint was the location of the "in unit" washer/dryer was actually in a storage closet outside the entry door. Would definitely recommend this unit/property.

Overall Comment
I love Holiday Surf and Racquet Club! This was our second time to vacation here and we just love it. The only negative comment I have here is the cleaning fee. We are charged a cleaning fee but from what we can tell from our two stays here, the crew doesn't do much "cleaning" prior to us arriving. Other than supply clean towels, that's it. The fan vents have years of dust caked onto them in every bathroom. The furniture has layers of dust on it and the kitchen backsplash was dirty. We had to do our own cleaning when we arrived so it would be nice to get a refund on the cleaning fee. Other than that, we love the resort, location and amenities.

Alberto,
Thank you for allowing us to welcome you back to Holiday Surf & Racquet Club. We would like to apologize for the cleaning issues you experienced during your stay. HSRC would like to make sure all guests are aware to contact the front desk for any cleaning or maintenance issues so any concerns can be addressed immediately. You are a valued guest and we do hope to change the chance to host you again.

Enjoyed another Summer with Family at Holiday Surf & Unit 301
McKinney TX
5
Overall Comment
Holiday Surf has been a summer destination for my family since 1984; unit 301 has been our summer home for one week since 2016. The unit is one of the few updated units and includes a washer/dryer which is awfully convenient. Like, I believe, all of the units in Holiday Surf, the bathrooms are beyond desperate need for renovation. Kitchen is small but adequate and AC works well. The master bedroom mattress has not been changed since we began renting 301, and it is still very uncomfortable. You can't beat the view though!

This is a perfect location to relax and enjoy the gorgeous view! We wish hurricane Ida would not have planned her arrival the same week we were there, the beautiful beach was so stirred up!
The only reason I marked the property's condition to a 4 is because the gate did not work so it was left open for a few days and once it was closed, we had to be buzzed in, but never were asked to identify ourselves. Overall, the staff was very nice and resolved any issues that were brought to their attention. Will rent here again!
Response from Holiday Surf and Racquet Club
Hi Michele,
Thank you for staying with us at Holiday Surf & Racquet Club. We are sorry that the rain from hurricane Ida made its way to Destin during your stay. Sometimes the inclement weather does affect our gate and that's an issue that we are actively working on. The front desk staff is able to see if a vehicle from the cameras and they will buzz you through if they see a pass or recognize the guest. We will make sure the front desk staff properly identifies everyone who buzzes the call button at the gate. We enjoyed having you as our guest and we hope to welcome you back soon.

Best Unit on the Beach!

Overall Comment
We loved unit 301! It had a phenomenal ocean view - just the right height to watch the dolphins play in the ocean without having to walk up too many stairs or wait for the elevator. The unit is on the end, so it was super easy to walk down the stairs and around the corner to the beach. The unit was clean, comfortable, and spacious. We loved the balcony, the wall art, and the kitchen space. The unit has a washer and dryer as well. The only things missing were hangers in the closets. The beach was gorgeous. The staff were friendly and helpful. We enjoyed playing tennis and shuffleboard.

This rental is located in a nice, quiet beach front location that really can’t be beat in Destin! The view from the balcony is fantastic. The two bedrooms in the unit are nicely sized and there is a very well equipped kitchen, big dining table, and generously sized living room we well! The location of the unit at the far end of the building means that there is no one down by the unit that doesn’t have business down there. Property management team is accommodating and responsive. Overall, a very comfortable place to stay RIGHT ON THE BEACH, in Destin. Thank you!

The condo was as clean and well kept as last year. The view is great. We watched dolphins every morning from our balcony. The outside furniture is brand new. The owner even added hooks to hang wet beach towels, which was very convenient. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils and cookware. The washer and dryer in the storage closet is very convenient and a great time saver. We were able to arrive back home without having a ton of laundry to do. (Note: If the closet is locked, you can get a key from the front desk.) The beach changed a bit since the storm came through in 2018. It's a little narrower, but the crystal clear water made up for it.

We have always stayed at Holiday Surf when visiting Destin. I love the location but was disappointed with our unit 301. When I booked our reservations it stayed there was a washer and dryer in the unit so that is why I booked it. When we got there to my surprise there was no washer and dryer. Also at night the AC did not cool and ran constantly. The kitchen/ dining area was inconvenient when cooking in the unit. Hopefully we will make it back another year but don’t think I would stay in this unit again.

We really enjoyed our stay. The only part I did not like ( and this was no fault to anyone ) was trying to maneuver the luggage cart down the walkway from elevator to condo. Too many turns.. The view was great, LOVED the artwork, condition was great, peaceful, and friendly staff. Such an easy process to check in and out. We ate at several wonderful places but the Back Porch was by far the best ! Ask for C.J. , we also loved Brotulas for drinks and harbor view. ( Don't go to Bric-a-Brac unless you need a good is for seniors. Music was horrible, service was as well.)
