The unit was clean, the property was clean, and the beach area was clean. The beach setup is great for groups. Tip the team setting up and they will build you a little beach commune for the day. Rental was easy. Checkout was easy. Overall great vacation location!

The condo was very clean with a perfect balcony view of the beach and pool area, with tennis courts and shuffle board also in perfect site. It was great to have included in the rental an umbrella and 2 chairs on the beach. And as always, the beach in Destin is more beautiful than anywhere I’ve been in the US, with crystal clear water and beautiful white sand! We have been coming to Destin for 20+ years and used to stay at a neighboring condo, but stayed at Holiday Surf and Racquet Club several years ago and it was the best decision we have made because Holiday has become our home away from home! I think anyone will agree with me that Holiday Surf and Racquet will get 5 stars every time!

Had a wonderful time with my family! The condo was located on the beach which was very convenient for my family. The condo was clean but did not have the same furniture as was shown in the pictures. But it served its purpose. Staff was very friendly...even the beach chair people!

The 2 bedroom condo was the perfect set-up with plenty of room for our family of 5. King bed in the master and a bunk bed for the kids in the 2nd room was great. We enjoyed the quick elevator ride and walk to the beach. Our chairs were all set up and ready for us to enjoy a full day on the beach. The location was perfect for daily fishing, with a bait store within a couple of miles. Plenty of groceries and restuarants right around the corner. We absolutley plan on coming back soon!

2021 spring break in destin

Chesterfield MO

4.0

The condo we stayed in was as pictured. Very nice, clean, and accommodated 6 people comfortably. Wish laundry facilities were in the condo instead of on another floor. Beach requires laundry, especially since there was no way to dry items outside - too humid.
All complaints outside the condo itself: Hallways had really dirty carpeting. NO customer service from the reception area at all - no help with bags, suggestions of local food were provided; only the "house rules." The laundry facility has hours not easily found.
Several fun places within walking distance, but not a grocery store. The weather is too iffy in March for me to consider returning for another spring break.

anniversary trip

Shorter AL

Love Destin forever so wanted to celebrate our anniversary at a place directly on the beach. We checked several places out and read reviews - then decided on Holiday Surf and Racquet Club. Happy to say that it was a good decision! We had a two bedroom - two bath unit with a nice balcony directly on the beach on 5th floor. Was quiet with comfortable beds and plenty of room. The building is older but well maintained. Had 3 tvs and internet was good. Also located centrally so you can get anywhere and there is a Winn Dixie/Target shopping area real close. Asked at front desk about local restaurants and was given a nice list with choices for different kind of foods. We decided to go to Mimmos, McGuires Irish Pub and Boshamps. Great food at all these restaurants!! Of course we had breakfast at the DoNut Hole. Staff was helpful whenever we needed.

We had a very enjoyable stay at HSRC. Unit exceeded expectations. Nice new comfortable living room furniture since pictures taken. With a couple of exceptions (rusty balcony furniture and pool closed during a portion of our stay), we had a great experience. Loved the quieter location and enjoyed walks to the jetty.

Overall it was an average condo. For what I paid, I expected more though. The location was great, the view was great and it did comfortably accommodate all guests. For the next guests, I would suggest all outlets work, the main microwave to be in working order, a better dishwasher and to adjust the outlet and outlet cover in the master bedroom so it's able to be used. Like I said before, it was a fine place and worth staying at but for less money than what I paid.

We love HSRC. We stay there every year in the Fall. This unit (517) was perfect for our family. The only suggestion I have for this unit is to consider upgrading the mattresses, and maybe add a couple more pots to the kitchen.

When we checked in 3 of the dining room chairs were broken. We were disappointed that the large TV was located in the master bedroom and the small TV was in the living room. It would be nice to have these TV's changed around. The light in the 2nd bedroom is very dim. Would be great to have a recliner. Master bedroom mattress needs replacing.
