Just wanted to drop you a note on how much we enjoyed your condo last week! We have stayed at several places over the last five years and thought your condo at Silver Shells was set up by far the best! All of the small extras that you have in the condo made the trip much easier and more enjoyable for both the kids and adults. The beach chairs, small cooler for the beach, inflatables for the beach and pool and even a blender for making frozen drinks all made the stay very enjoyable. The condo and the views of the beach were even better than the photos on the website, truly a gulf front condo!

We absolutely loved your place! We have stayed at Silver Shells numerous time since this complex first opened. I have to say your unit has been the best we've seen - very nicely decorated, spacious, very clean and lots of extras (ice machine, chairs, cooler, umbrella, etc). I would highly recommend your unit. Thanks for everything!

Hi Tammmie. I do want to share with you that we had a WONDERFUL week. The weather and water could not have been more beautiful. We have stayed at several places in Destin over the years and your condo was definitely the most well-appointed property we have ever stayed in. We felt like we were in a home, rather than a “rental condo” at the beach. All of the extras that you provide in the kitchen were very nice, we never felt like we were missing anything or that we just had to do without for the week; you had everything we needed. The ice-maker was definitely worth its weight in gold. We never had to make a “run to the store” to buy ice for the ice chest or for frozen drinks in the evening. My wife has already looked up the model on-line so we can purchase one for our own home! We were very comfortable with two families (4 adults, 5 children) staying in your unit – we never felt on top of one another. The bunk room was awesome for the kids. It allowed all the cousins to stay together and spend time hanging out. We have never rented through VRBO and were initially apprehensive about doing so. I want to THANK YOU for how easy you made everything. Your responsiveness to every question that we had made the entire experience so pleasurable. I feel like we know each other with the number of e-mails/communications that we have had over the last month or two since we started the rental process with you. I am certain that we will be communicating more in the future as we plan our future vacations to Destin. Thanks again for all that you did to make certain that our trip was FANTASTIC!!!

I should have done this a year
ago...when we stayed in your unit the
first time. I will never forget walking
in and thinking it was the most
beautiful place I had ever stayed in
away from our home. I have gone to the
beach every year for the past 35 years
of my life...and have stayed in all
different places up and down the
coastline of Florida. This by far is
the nicest, cleanest, and most
beautiful...and so convenient to
everything there is to do in Destin.
The view of the beach is unbelievable in
both the master and the guest bedrooms.
It is perfect. We hope you keep this
unit as we plan to keep renting from you
in the future. Thank you for always
being so kind and making renting a
wonderful experience. We will be back.
See you next year!

My Family and I just returned from our annual family beach vacation. Normally we go to Panama City but wanted something alittle closer this year. I happened upon this condo and am so happy I did. It was beautifully decorated convient to the beach and Tammie was a pleasure to work with. I recommend it highly to anyone who is looking for a condo in the Destin/Fort Walton area. The pool was great and there were many amenities on site and lots to do just minutes from the resort. Cindy

WE LOVED IT!!!!!!! We had a terrific time! What an amazing condo you have! Everything was perfect...the weather, the ocean, the view, The Sand Bar's awesome frozen drinks, the comfortable beds, the convenience to restaurants and shopping. This was by far the most exceptional place we have stayed yet for our annual girls trip. Where else can you stay where the elevator opens right up to your room... UNBELIEVABLE, WE FELT LIKE ROYALTY!

Thanks again. We'll be back next year!

We had a wonderful vacation at this wonderful condo! It was easy access to the room and the beach. The owner was a pleasure to work with! The beds were very comfy. This was by far the best place we have ever stayed in.

We had such a great time. You made the arrival and departure so easy. What a wonderful, gorgeously decorated condo. Best building for easy access to the beach and a great view of the ocean. Two master bedrooms...we loved it!

Michael and I want you to know that we really appreciated the amenities you had in your condo. The ice machine was probably the biggest excitement and the beds were great! Usually I am ready to get back into my bed when we get back from a trip but not this time. You have thought of everything, I hope we get to visit there again next year. Thanks!

Your condo was wonderful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay there. It's right on the beach and in a great location. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. We will highly recommend your condo to our friends and family.

The condo was gorgeous. Of all the annual beach vacations we have teken, this was BY FAR the best rental we have used. Luxurious, practical, and extremely comfortable, this condo exceeded our expectations in every sense. The unit had everything we needed for the week, and we had a fantastic time during our stay.

Thanks!

What a wonderful condo! Everything was perfect.

I have vacationed in Destin with my daughter and her family...three children... for the past eleven years. Everyone agreed that this was our favorite condo to date.

The owner was so helpful and faithfully responded to my many emails.

If you don't enjoy this place it is no ones fault but yours.

It was great having two master suites that both faced the Gulf.

What a great Condo!! We had a great time and the weather was great. I think we will make this condo our new home when we visit Destin. The beds were so comfortable and the condo was decorated beautifully yet it was kid friendly. The bunk room was great for the kids and they loved their room. Can't say enough good things about our stay at Silver Shells.

We L-O-V-E-D your condo! Our vacation would have been a disaster if we had not had this beautiful and serene condo for our R&R. Weather was horrible and had to endure RED TIDE, but our stay in your condo even made the weather somewhat bearable. Thanks again for all your assistance in last minute reservations.

WOW! We had the best time staying at your gorgeous condo! Everything was absolutely perfect! The weather was beautiful! The condo was all we were hoping for and so much more. We took a family girls trip and had a blast! There were 7 women there and believe it or not we were all completely satisfied! We will definately be staying in this unit again! Probably twice next year if we possibly can! Thanks again for your hospitality! We loved every minute of it! And the ice maker was a huge plus!

We had an absolutely wonderful week.
The weather was perfect! Your condo was
beautiful. The beds were so
comfortable, we all slept perfect. The
unit had everything plus more, there
was nothing else we could have needed
or asked for. We would love to rent
your unit again. Thanks again, the
luxury of your condo made our vacation
awesome!

Thank you for a wonderful wonderful
stay.  I've been going to the gulf
coast every year since I was two, been
going to Destin every year since I was
18 and this was by far, my favorite
trip.  The condo was absolutely
perfect. We've also never had anyone
that we've rented from be so thoughtful
and accomodating.  Thank you for
helping us have the perfect family
trip.  I will absolutely make sure
everyone I know, knows about your
condo.  Thanks so much.

We absolutely loved the unit and it was
decorated beautifully.  Nicest
decorated one we have stayed at in
Silver Shells. The only thing that I
can think of it lacking was a mudroom
to throw the beach stuff when we came
up each day, an architectural flaw. 
Other than that, it was wonderful. 
Plus, the ice machine MORE than made up
for not having a mudroom.  We used it
every single day and it is a great
addition to a beachfront condo! 

Again,  great place and super
hospitality!  Thanks!!!

WONDERFUL!!!! This unit is PLATINUM!

We did our annual Mother's Day trip with 7 women, this being our first time at Silver Shells. The condo was beautifully decorated and extemely comfortable. The kitchen was the best equipped condo that I have stayed in so far. The ice-maker was a huge "plus".

Our entire party had great praise for the unit and the property. It's not often you please 7 women!!!!

We loved the beach service!!! The food and service were both excellent.

The owner was so very wonderful and helpful. She was very accomodating and easy to work with.

We will certainly stay in this unit again.

Shells are awesome. There was so much

coveniently located. I can't wait to go

I have stayed at Silver Shells many times in the past 5 years, but this unit was the greatest - hands down. The beds were incredibly comfortable with lots of extra pillows and soft blankets. The kitchen so well stocked, including the barware! The kids loved the double bunk beds! The dining room table was even large enough for the entire family to play games. Truly a luxury vacation, everything in the unit and at the resort seemed to cater to our having an easy and enjoyable vacation. Thank you for sharing your home and we plan to rent again this summer!

This place is a jewel. The pictures do not do it justice. We have been comming to Destin for 10 years and have stayed in beautiful units, but this unit is the best. We were fortunate to be able to stay 2 1/2 months. Hated to leave. The whole resort area is wonderful. Everything you need to have a perfect vacation. Hope to return next year.
