Disappointed

Posted Sep. 18, 2024 on HomeAway
The Real Joy team was great at communicating, however, the condo that was advertised as unit 207 did not adequately depict the condo that we stayed in. They also advertise 2 pools, however, the 2nd pool belongs to Tower 2 and that was for private owners and we were not allowed to swim there. The beach access to Noriego point was blocked off from the condo property by a locked gate, so you have to walk off of the property to access this. The coffee pot was broken, the toilet seat in one of the bathrooms was loose, the TV in the queen bedroom would not connect to wi-fi to save my life. The kitchen was stocked just barely enough for the 2 of us 50ish women, however, there's no way there are enough dishes to try to cook a decent meal for the family. All in all, we had a decent time.

Nice Place, Quiet Location

Posted Sep. 7, 2024 on HomeAway
We enjoyed our stay! The location was convenient, fabulous, good views, and very quiet. It was probably the week we were there, but we had the pool mostly to ourselves. The unit is a little older but fairly well maintained overall. Great communication from the renter with easy check in and check out processes.

Beach vacation

Posted Jun. 17, 2024 on HomeAway
When we got there, we were disappointed because the hotel in no way overlooks the shore of the beach. The pictures were deceiving making it look like the beach was right there, but it’s not. when we wanted to go to the beach, we had to go somewhere else. overall we really had a great vacation, we enjoyed seeing the boardwalk from across the patio .

Jada, Thank you for taking the time to review your stay. We are sorry that you were disappointed in the location. The listing clearly states, "The beach at East Pass Towers is steps away from the condo and uniquely built up on a seawall." We're glad you had a great vacation and we hope you will join us again soon. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.

Nice Location, Layout of Space, Beautiful View

Posted Jun. 6, 2024 on HomeAway
We really enjoyed our stay here. The layout of the unit was spacious, with plenty of room for the four of us. I was worried about the cleanliness after seeing some reviews, but I had no issues, thought it was just fine. My favorite part is its location on Holiday Isle, the O’Steen Beach Trail, and Destin Harbor. We had so much fun watching the boats in the harbor. Definitely recommend, and I would also stay here again.

Pass on east pass 1 207.

Posted May 31, 2024 on HomeAway
I honestly wish they would let me put up pictures. The location is great that’s it. This condo is absolutely disgusting. Stained furniture, shower stool for a side table, holes in the furniture. Slippery, floors whatever you do don’t go barefoot. It took the staff four days to clean up shattered glass due to a table breaking outside. There is no love for this building at all.

Holiday Isle 207

Posted Mar. 12, 2024 on HomeAway
The condo itself was very clean and had a great view of the Harbor and Boardwalk. The condo, owners and management company were all flawless, the condo grounds and maintenance were not. The supposed heated pool was not heated and it is closed for the winter. The hot tub is very small and was also OOS during our 1 month stay. BBQ grills OOS also and never did get repaired. There is a serious and annoying disconnect between the Tower 1 and Tower 2 HOA groups and the owners and renters! Tower 1 has basic amenities while tower 2 gets pampered. They have under building parking but only allow owners to use it. Most spots set empty while the majority of people have to park outside. The owners have a seperate pool with padded loungers and tower 1 is hard plastic! It’s one complex that is pretty much divided due to HOA BS. Maintenance needs replaced they aren’t knowledgeable at anything other than dumping trash and painting
