Breakers East #701

Great location and view from the balcony. Short walk past the pool to the beach. Clean and roomy condo. We knew it was not yet updated. The Assistant at the Beach management was very responsive to our needs.

Great location, great views. The condo had big rooms and was clean and the kitchen was well stocked with dishes etc. would definitely stay here again

I have been bragging about our fantastic find in Destin. It was a spacious condo. Loved that it was not a huge high rise so we had plenty of space at the beach front. Loved how the umbrellas were spaced out. Everyone was friendly. Cant wait until our next visit to Destin,

Everything was great! Great location, great views, great condo! The condo was very spacious!

The location of this place was awesome. The views of the ocean were breathtaking. With it being a corner condo, we didn't have anyone on one side of us. However, we never heard anything from any of the neighbors in the building. It had lots of room and was clean. It wasn't one of the updated ones, but we knew that coming into it. Bed was comfortable! The balcony overlooking the ocean was the #1 perk of this place. People were friendly. It was nice to have the chairs and umbrella already set up for us (and reserved with our names) on the beach. Definitely recommend this place!

Outstanding!

The management team is wonderful. The unit is very roomy and spacious with a great view. The only issue we had was a bad smell coming from the air conditioning unit, and the management tried to help with this. The king size bed is not very supportive, but, overall, I would stay here again.

The property was clean and lovely, and it had the most amazing view. It was spectacular to be able to wake up to the ocean right outside the window and be able to reach the beach so easily. That alone was entirely worth it.

Location is good. Appreciate the smaller building rather than a high-rise. Unit was perfect for us - quiet, spacious rooms, see the gulf from all windows except second bedroom. Pool is beautiful, and so clean. Accurate description and photos, including the regular low chairs (not high barstools) on the balcony - important for circulation/health of my family. New mattresses (May 2018) are great. Floors could have been cleaner. Onsite customer service is good - all are very kind. Definitely recommend this place. We mostly relaxed, walked the beach, watched dolphins, swam; also enjoyed the Back Porch for lunch, Anglers for dinner, Margaritaville’s outside bar rale for people-watching at HarborWalk Village, and had a blast Parasailing with Boogies Water Sports. Love the white powder-sugar sand that does not get hot! Did not appreciated the cigar from the balcony below for our last few nights - ugh. I am allergic, and was not able to sit on our own balcony. Wish it was a smoke-free building.

The condo has a great view from almost every room. It is very spacious and comfortable. Our kids had a great time even though there was a cold front, the water was a bit cold but they enjoyed the heated pool.

We absolutely LOVED our stay! The unit had everything we needed and then some and the view was priceless! And management stayed in touch before our arrival about a smoke detector going off before we even arrived! We will definitely be back!

Another enjoyable stay at Breakers East for the winter

Pleasant stay while in Destin. Will be returning to # 701 as before.

We loved the condo and had a great weekend visit. We would definitely stay here again!

Furniture was old & entire unit (especially kitchen) needs to be renovated. I called ahead & asked about the red tide & I was told they had not had any. This was a lie.... dead fish all over the beach the evening we arrived. Red tide smell so bad the next day the beach was cleared & people were wearing masks. We left later that night

Condo was very clean and has an amazing view. Could use some updating. Carolyn Bobbitt, the property manager is amazing. Super quick response and lots of help.

Wonderful experience, nicely decorated condo in a well maintained clean building. Had a wonderful week on the beach with my family. Clean Beach and helpful staff

It’s a nice place but I feel I paid a top dollar price and didn’t receive a top dollar condo. It’s a nice place just a little dated, great location, beautiful views, nice just not what you’d expect for a little over $1200 bucks for a 3 nights stay. If you can get it for a reasonable price then it’s perfect!! My family and I would definitely stay here again but not for this price. Hope this helps.

Carolyn was our assistant and was very responsive to questions before and during our stay, although normally by text or email and difficult to reach by phone.

The condo was clean and spacious but overdue for modern updates to the kitchen and bathrooms.

View from the patio is amazing and the beach access could not be better.

We will be coming back to Breakers East, but will seek a unit that has updated bathrooms and kitchen.

We have been coming to Destin since the 1970,s. We always have 2 rooms an on occasion we have had up to 5. We had room 701 in 2017 and I stayed in the other room. The group who stayed in in the room then said that it needed updated and I guess that we did pay a lot of attention. The room is way below Breakers East standards in every respect. The mattress on the master bed is a disaster. I think it caved in so bad that I could not sleep good and this mattress should be replaced now.The rest of the unit is also old and needs updated now. I would suggest that the updating on this rom be done now.

This is the BEST condo building in Destin! Location is perfect, views are unbeatable, and the space for chairs on the beach is the best! 701 is not an updated unit but the end unit provides extra windows which we love! The tile throughout is ideal for a beach Stay and they provide everything you can imagine in the kitchen! We felt right at home!

We had a wonderful time on our vacation. We have stayed at a lot of places in Destin, and this was by far one of the best. A few steps to the beach, a huge balcony that we enjoyed every morning and evening, awesome customer service. If I had a question or concern, I was answered immediately. We would definitely stay here again. We loved how the beach setup was included and ready for us every morning. It was also nice that when they set us up they made sure everyone had a front row seat to the ocean. There was not a bad spot on the beach.

The rental was very clean and accommodating. It has a perfect view of the beach and is in a great location. The beach is private so even during the 4th of July it wasn't crowded. Carolyn was friendly and responded quickly to any questions we had. Overall I would recommend this rental and would rent this unit again in the future!

Carolyn, your assistant at the beach was informative and helpful.
The 701 unit was clean. And all appliances worked. The den sofa area and porch furniture were both comfortable. And the 3 windows on the East side of condo gave beautiful views of sunrises We like firm mattresses but this master bedroom is much much too hard. Some touch up painting needed also through out the unit. Doorframes, cabinets, etc and counter top needs to be changed.

This is somewhere around our 25th year of coming to Breakers East. We love it and there is nothing nicer.
