We enjoyed visiting Destin and staying at this place. It was super close to the beach and had lots of amenities. We learned how to play shuffle board and got better at tennis.
We would recommend this place to people that enjoy being active. Fun in the sun!

We love Destin and Holiday Surf. This was my third stay and have always had a great experience! We love the beach chair service and the tennis/pickleball courts. I utilized the laundry and gym...both were clean and easy to access. I’ll be returning next year!

15th year at HRSC
by Gilbert AZ
★★★★☆ 4 of 5
Overall Comment
We have been coming to HRSC since 2006 and it’s always been an awesome experience. We were a bit disappointed this year as our condo wasn’t ready until just before 5pm. We’ve never waited this long to get into our rental before. When we got there at 3 we were told it was in inspection, for 2 hours? Frankly we’d been up for 36 hours at that point and just wanted to relax. Our condo was very nicely updated and very well equipped! The check in situation won’t prevent us from returning, it was just out of the norm from our previous years there.

This was a multi family vacation and with most of us staying on the bottom floor snd having the conveniences so handy, this was on of our best vacay’s ever!! We have small children but felt safe enough for them to run between rooms from patio to patio. Beach was exactly what we needed!!

Nice room. Updated. Nice place to stay.
by Plaquemine LA
★★★★★ 5 of 5
Overall Comment
We stayed in room 106 and it was updated and a very nice stay. The light under the microwave was burned out and I could not find a dust pan to sweet the sand into. It would be a huge plus if the owners had something like a little shark vacuum for people staying there to use to suck up all of the sand that gets tracked in.
The one thing that we did not like was that there are no washers and dryers in the unit. So we had to lug our laundry to the 4th or 6th floors. This would not be such an issue if towel exchange was offered every day instead of just on Tuesdays and Fridays. People are on vacation when at the beach and the last thing you want to have to do is make several trips to and from the laundromat. Towel exchange daily should definitely be considered and if that is impossible, every other day at the bare minimum. Other than that we enjoyed our stay. We will call before booking next time to see if there are more towel exchange days available than twice a week.

This condo was so cute and clean! I loved that it was on the first floor and provided easy beach access and parking lot access. It was quiet and peaceful. Location is great, and the beach was not overly crowded. We also liked the DVD rentals for rainy days or just hanging out at night. Condo had everything we needed. Only dislike was that the couch was not super comfortable. Other than that, would definitely stay here again.

Great place and location. This particular weekend they were working on the beach which was somewhat of a nuisance. It was our first time in Destin and we had to look at that all day/night while looking out at the beach. They said they were done Sunday but we left on Monday morning.

Beautifully renovated beach condo
by Brentwood TN
★★★★★ 5 of 5
Overall Comment
Our family of five stayed here very comfortably. We have theee kids 11, 8, and 6. They have a pull out couch and a super comfortable pad for the couch. Then they have two foldable twin beds with three piece cushions that you tie down. They were as comfortable and could use another layer of an egg crate but for young kids they were fine. The king bed was wonderful and their decor was lovely. We were right near the pool right outside the gate which is what we wanted to keep little ones from getting in the pool alone. It was a great unit and I would highly recommend it. The only thing I wish it had was hooks on the wall on the patio. There were none and you are not allowed to hang towels and swimsuits on the railings to dry so we were hanging things every place we could which was annoying because all the seating was taken. But other than that minor issue it was great!

small but nice
by Murfreesboro TN

Overall Comment
we knew the unit was small because we have stayed in one bedroom units before. Being on the ground floor is perfect : walk out the back porch to the beach and tennis. Recently upgraded and remodeled, all was fresh. Only one issue : the mattress in the master bedroom needs to be replaced, sags in the middle. Otherwise, nice place for a couple to stay and be close to everything.

We enjoyed our time at the Holiday Surf& Racquet. The room was nice, the mattress was a little uncomfortable, but was sleep-able. My only problem was that I received a coupon code the day after I booked the room and when I called about it, I was told I couldn't use it because the room was already booked. I was not happy about that.

Have stayed here several times now but this was the first time on the ground floor. The view isn't as good from there but it is hard to beat the convenience of walking out the back door to the pool or beach and being able to park right outside your door. No wrestling with luggage carts , shopping carts, and elevators. We will always come back to HSRC!

We really enjoyed this condo and it's ground level location. Being able to walk out the back patio to head to the beach/pool and not have to wait on an elevator was really convenient. Loved the updated decor and very clean. Large living room and bedroom. Kitchen and bathroom was on the smaller side. Only negative was my fault for not reading into unit description - No washer/dryer in the unit. I have never stayed in a unit that didn't have one so I assumed it would be there. Conveniently located to many shops/restaurants. You could even bike/maybe walk to a few. Would recommend this unit to a small family or couple.

This is my 5th time staying at Holiday Surf and Racquet. I have been very satified with the condos that I have stayed in each time. The access to the beach and heated pool is perfect especially from the 1st floor! I will be back in October! I will continue to stay at Holiday Surf every time I visit Destin!
