What a view and access!
What a peaceful, serene location away from all the commotion closer to Destin. Amazing view and the utmost convenience to the ocean. Loved having beach chairs and umbrellas set up for us in the morning. Didn’t need to use the pool but it looked inviting.

As close to the water as you can be
This beach get-a-way was probably the most convenient one we have had. Close assigned parking, very short walk to the beach; less crowed beach and beach chairs/umbrella provided. The only negative here is that it is showing its age. I would stay there again.

Beautiful view of beach
Very nice view and location steps to the beach. Love the smaller condo and new balcony. Beach service was very nice to save your spot each day. Condo has most items except laundry detergent so we didn’t get to use new washer. Only a small gas station is closest so one would need a car to get to all restaurants and shopping.A black out curtain would be nice in bedroom to reduce brightness at night and increase privacy. Condo could use some updating with painting to get rid of mold on ceilings in bathroom and refresh. We had a great stay and would def return.

Not up to par!
Let's start with the good: *beautiful beach *great location/quieter than Destin *had everything needed to relax *owner quick to reply (at first) Cons: *the bedroom overlooks the hallway & very close to stairs which isn't bad except there was only ONE curtain panel so there was not privacy in the bedroom. I had to get on a table and remove a curtain panel from the family room so no one could look into the bedroom, and I could safely change with assured privacy! Not OK!!!! *towels were gross. Spotted with what looked like dried mold. I would not use them! They were not going anywhere near my face or body. *floors were quite dirty and left my feet black so I had to clean the floors *garbage in kitchen was not emptied from prior renter. Not a huge deal, but still worth noting. *deck was just remodeled (which is great), but all the wood shavings were left behind so no barefeet on the deck. *I contacted the owner immediately once I realized the issues. She did not get back to me until the next day. She was very apologetic, and kind! *No smart t.v. so you are stuck watching commercials, and can't watch your own preferred programs.

Good property owner, not a great building
When we checked in, the unit had not been cleaned. We had to sleep on the couches because the bed was dirty. The owner, Gloria, was great. She offered us an extra night in the condo to make up for the inconvenience. I contacted her and she got a hold of the cleaning company. The lady from the cleaning company was not friendly. She seemed upset with us that we wanted the trash removed that was left from the previous renters. I would not recommend that cleaning company. The pool was very dirty and was not cleaned the whole time we were here. Will not stay at Island Sands again.

Great Place On The Beach
The unit was exactly as advertised and was right on the beach. Great view and easy access. Very clean. All the appliances were new and worked great. More lighting is needed in the kitchen over the stove top and that can be done with light bulb replacement. That is the only negative thing I could say about the unit. We enjoyed our stay very much.

Great Stay -- Highly Recommend
We are 3 retired ladies taking a mini vacay. Location was excellent! Water and beach still best in the panhandle. Condo was comfortable. Would not recommend more than 4 adults though as sleeper sofas when pulled out are NOT comfortable. We slept on these as singles and it was fine. Could use some additional cookware for those who need to cook. Biggest need for us was an indoor table, wouldn't have to be a large one, but if that's not possible a card table with some type chairs to provide a place to play cards. One other thing, the table on the balcony needs replacing. None of the things I have mentioned are a reason not to rent this unit--- just my opinion as to what would make it even better. We had a great time and would rent this unit again.
