If you are near Miramar Beach, the snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Dolphin Reef, deployed in 2017. Located just 685 feet straight out from the Miramar Regional Public Beach access (by Pompano Joe's), it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Dolphin Reef is at a depth of 12-20 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

Nice property with easy access to the beach. The floors were vinyl and easy to clean when particles of sand followed you back. We would definitely return to this property

The property could use a little maintenance to the out dated doors as the locks are busted and use simple bolt on locks that don’t seal like the original lock. One of the toilets didn’t flush very well but with 3 on the property we made it work. With that being said, may look at other properties around the area for similar prices for next time.

Really had no issues at all. The property is a little older, so there was some issues with the sliding doors not working. Air conditioner struggled during the day, but did well at night (not allowed to set below 70). Location to beach was excellent, especially with my teenagers.

There were a few issues w/ this property (most of them small besides a leak in the ceiling on our last day). Locks need to be fixed upstairs as none worked. Unit was freshly painted but a lot of things weren't returned to their usual place (which we did). Location was GREAT! Beach was across the street. Pool was nice. Parking decent. While we may have had multiple issues , Real Joy Customer service was GREAT!!!! Both times they provided help as needed and were friendly and VERY understanding!

The condo was nice but we had a few issues. The shower in the master bathroom leaked, the toilet in the half bath leaked and the dishwasher wouldn’t work. I contacted the emergency number and someone responded immediately but it still took 2 days to get the issues fixed. We had 7 girls staying there and all of us using one shower was not easy. But after everything was fixed the rest of the trip with smoothly. They also gave us a gift card for all of the trouble. Other than these issues the condo was great. I would stay here again!

The access to the beach was just as promised. However our overall was just okay. The property had a limited supply of items on the property. property sleeps 8, but items in the home did not support the 8 in any way. There was active construction on the property and we were advised by the contractors to not use the balconies at all as it was a safety risk. The management had not notified us of this at all. The balconies and the view is one of their selling points. We reached out to the management about the construction related noise and scaffolding but we did not hear back from them at all.

This property has great location and easy access to the beach. The size of the unit easily accommodated 2 couples, 1 child, and one single adult. Things requiring improvement; needs a good cleaning, cabinets were sticky, unit advertised for 8 only had 6 forks, spots on furniture, towels, linens. Looked like new flooring was installed and finishing touches were not completed, dark black rot spot on ceiling 1st floor. Parking passes were missing in unit and when we inquired, we were told call here, text there we finally made our own. As a previous property owner and former customer of Real Joy we understand the turn-over and lack of workers. HOWEVER, at the current high cost of the rental, we don't think it unrealistic to expect a clean unit. Perhaps a day in between check-ins would allow for better service. We will NOT rent this unit again.

If your looking just to lay your head for an outrageous price. This place is for you. To begin with there is no broom or toliet paper. Don't get me wrong I've never stayed anywhere that didn't provide this. 1 roll per bathroom and that was it for a condo that sleeps 8 and for 7 days. I think we had 3 trash bags for 7 days. And for somewhere that is on the beach I expect a broom. The fridge leaks and the upstairs bathroom. I'm pretty sure the entire floor is uneven. The stove needs to be adjusted. Almost impossible to cook on. The dishes where greasy when we got here. I've stayed at Gulf Winds here in Destin before and loved it. But I will never stay in 47 ever again. We paid entirely to much for the condo to be in such a run down place. This pics online are very deceiving.

I think our overall experience was just OK. Would I go back? No. It felt like we were in a motel. The unit itself had the loudest squeaky floors on the second floor/ stairs. If you try to put the baby to sleep they’d more than likely wake from you walking away on the creaking floorboards. The couch and rug downstairs we’re not in the best condition with it being white. Our first night we went out to get dinner and we came back to the unit with the door being wide open and a guy cleaning the sofa at 9 pm. He stated he’s there to clean the couches he was supposed to be there earlier but he could not leave when we asked if he could return at a later time. I quickly called the number to the maintenance line and finally got a live person. When I finally reached someone she didn’t know what he was there for she said it looked as if he was scheduled in error and he must’ve gotten his days mixed up? That we could get a free explore voucher and they’d call. We never received any calls about any vouchers throughout our stay. From that night our stay made us feel alittle uneasy Thinking any moment while we were out someone randomly could come in the unit when they “weren’t supposed to be there” because they had the door code. No one bothered to check in on us during or after our stay after the incident to make sure everything was going smoothly. Is it close to the beach? yes. It’s Perfect distance. That was probably the best part of the whole stay but not enough to book again. Thanks.

great location, close to the beach! Some small issues with the property like appliances that didn’t work and some other broken things that didn’t affect our stay. Our gate code to the beach never worked but thankfully others were always available to let us in! Overall good play to stay for price and location!

The short walk of this property can't be beat and was a huge selling point for us. The pool on the property was also a plus. This is an older complex but the updates that have been done are nice. (new beds, linens, sinks in the bathrooms) They just need to finish the updates (fix places in the dry wall and repaint, change the shower head in the second bathroom, clean the carpet and replace the area rug! The kitchen has a good selection of items but some of them are broken and need to be replaced. Also, where is all of the outdoor furniture that was featured in the pictures??!! (luckily the ones on the master deck were still there and there was a cheap plastic one in the front of the property)
