We checked in on a Tuesday where there were storms coming. We were kept up to date on what to do and where to go in the event things got severe. That was a big comfort to us. The remaining 5 days of our stay were beautiful, Destin, Florida weather and the view of the pool and beach from the 7th floor in this room were Amazing! This property is very clean and well kept up!

We came in for a quick 5 night stay and we were not disappointed! Our room (709) looked exactly like the photos. It was equipped wit everything that it promised. ( hair dryer, iron, extra pillows). We were not disappointed. The front desk staff were all very polite and super helpful.
A few small details for new visitors..... the couch is a pull out sofa and seems to have “settled”. We found sitting on it quite uncomfortable- but we didn’t come to sit on the couch. We also did not rent a car for the short trip just to make it a bit more budget friendly. There is only one restaurant within walking distance (1/2 mile ish) so there is nothing nearby ....so it’s not your normal walking friendly beach stay.

Overall Comment
The unit was clean and has good amenities like coffee pots and cooking tools. Beautiful views, even saw a few dolphins in the ocean. Bed was comfortable. Like the cable and internet.
Everything was up to our standard except for these few items listed below. Would like to have some coffee already placed in the kitchen like normal hotel would supply.
It was a little dated with old travel guides and folder about the unit, and the apartment require minor fixtures replacement. It would be nice to have shampoo and bath soap. We almost ran out of toilet paper but probably could ask for more at the counter. The balcony have a step that is a tripping hazard.
Overall,we are satisfied with our stay and would like to come back again during warmer season.

I have stayed at MANY hotels in my travels and will have to say the staff were the best I have ever encountered at any location. Always friendly and at my service. Room was more than I expected and was very clean. Loved our stay there. The only reason I wouldn’t stay again is for a better view of the beach and closer walk to the sand. Not a tennis player but did watch a lot of players.

We had a great stay at Holiday Surf-- Condo 709. Condo was nicely furnished and well decorated in the kitchen and living room. The kitchen was well equipped as well. The bedroom and bathroom could use some updates, but it wouldn't prevent us from staying again. It was the perfect size for our family of four. We had no issues other than the toilet overflowing twice while there. Maintenance was quick to address the problem. Would definitely stay here again. The beach service was a huge benefit!

Overall we were very happy with this 7th floor unit. We didn't hear anything from neighboring units. The views from the balcony are amazing (But the slider doesn't close properly or lock and is difficult to open/close) Kitchen has been recently renovated and probably the nicest part of this unit. The king size bed was comfortable, plenty of closet space and dressers. The shower was good. We never received fresh towels (we had 3 total that we used over 5 days). We were told they only change towels twice a week, but we never got fresh ones. The couches are probably the one thing that could use upgrading. They are dated and musty smelling. My daughter slept on the pull-out bed and had we not brought our air mattress, she would have been very uncomfortable.
We were close to great restaurants and different attractions, Although there was a lot of road construction and traffic! Target was very conveniently a couple minutes away, which was great because we needed to get food and supplies for the week.
The week we were there, there was a lot of military air traffic! So being on the top floor gave us an amazing view of that as well! It was super cool and we LOVED it! Being able to see Apache and black hawks helicopters among others! The day we arrived the Blue Angels flew past too!
The beach was absolutely beautiful! Surprisingly it was not over crowded (for it being Spring Break). Sand was white and soft. The water was still pretty chilly (late March) but water was so clear!! Umbrella and chairs supplied and also paddle board/kayak rentals priced very reasonably.

The condo was wonderful. It worked great for my family of 4. Brand new kitchen and appliances were awesome! My only complaint is the porch/patio furniture is very cheap. It would have been a little more enjoyable to set on nicer patio furniture. But overall I was happy with the decision to stay there.

Great location in town and on the beach, and it's off Highway 98 so there was easy access to the property without the highway congestion. The room had all the appliances and amenities we needed for our weeklong stay. Some of the furniture could be updated, as well as the bathroom, but we came for the beach. We used the room to sleep and change so it wasn't a dealbreaker for us. We liked the direct beach access without a long walk, and enjoyed the beach service of umbrella and chairs. Overall the room and property itself was fine, nothing impressive but nothing terrible either. My personal preferences of multiple elevators (they have 2), the room door opening to the inside rather than out (for safety reasons), and on-site food/beverage options (other than vending machines or deliver) were lacking, but again none of it was a deal breaker. I don't HAVE to stay here again and would be willing to try other properties, but this was fine for what we needed.

We always enjoy staying at holiday surf and racquet club. Since staying in '15, they had renovated the main lobby which was very updated and nice. The condo is perfectly located in the spotlight of Destin but secluded to where you're away from the noise. Everything you want to do while on vacation, (board walk, restaurants, mall), is less than a 10 min drive (depending on traffic). We stayed in room 709. It had everything we needed, updated and decorated very nicely and the view was amazing. We always recommend for anyone going to Destin to stay here. At holiday surf. They have never disappointed us. Thanks for another pleasant vacation. We didn't want it to end.
