Very satisfied with the way Gibson handles their rentals. We completed all transactions by email and/ or text. Codes, directions and the variety of free or discounted daily activities. They were even able to fairly accommodate us when we decide we wanted to stay over a little longer. The only slight demerit goes to the owner of the unit. Coffee was brewed in an old drip machine (who doesn't use K-cup nowadays especially travelling), the TVs weren't identical in their offerings, and the kitchen utensils were on the sparse side. Needless to day, we were there to enjoy the beach, golf, etc. so kitchen issues are minor, indeed.

I was so pleased with this condo rental. The condo was impeccable upon entering. I felt very comfortable knowing I’d be staying there the week. Kudo to housekeeping!! Also, I felt very secure within the complex as you need codes for everything. I did also appreciate that some did soap, fresh sponge and extra bags were there upon arrival. Thanks for a great experience.

We enjoyed our stay in 4303 at Destin in June 2021. The condo was clean...somewhat dated. It was in a great location with a beautiful access and easy access to the beach. The sliding door in the master bedroom was broken as we arrived. Management came promptly and taped it up which worked fine for our stay. The condo lost power the first night we were there and didn't come back on until mid day the following day. 2 of 3 elevators were out for most of our stay which encouraged to use the stairs to the 10th floor often. The management company compensated us for the inconvenience...much appreciated.

We had a lovely 4th of July vacation at Beachside II. The view is magnificent! The unit is on the 10th floor which was ideal for us; me, my wife and 2 college age children. The kids enjoyed the (very crowded) beach while my wife and I stayed around the pool. The unit is very well equipped although the furniture could use some updating. Nadia at Gibson is very responsive and I give her high marks for checking with us almost daily to make sure all was well with our stay.
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
Thank you for this amazing review Andrew. We are so pleased to read that you and your family had a wonderful 4th of July vacation experience! It brings us joy to see you and your family loved the condo, the beautiful views it provided as well as the beach and pool amenities! We appreciate the feedback regarding the furniture. We will pass along the praise to Nadia and are so happy she provided exemplary service for you and your family. This is exactly what we at GBR strive for everyday. We truly hope to have you and your family stay with us again soon on the gorgeous Emerald Coast!

Spending February in Florida is a great place to be in when you live up north with their typical weather patterns. I like Miramar Beach because of its central location in the panhandle. It is a very easy trip to Panama City going east and Pensacola going west. If you want to be more adventurous Mobile, Ala and Biloxi, Miss are a little further away and New Orleans is 6 hours away. Going north is Montgomery and Birmingham, Ala and Huntsville with the Space Center. The beaches are beautiful with very fine white sand. It's a great feeling to be able to take off your shoes and wade in the water in the middle of February. And if you want to go swimming, which I have when my grandkids are visiting, the water is tolerable in the 60's. There are several miles of beaches which you can walk on. If you are an early morning person you have to go out to the beach, with a camera, before sunrise and just enjoy the splendor of the sun coming up over the horizon. At the end of the day turn around and watch the sun reflect off the clouds and quickly disappear over the western horizon. And don't leave the beach so soon or you will miss the amazing colors in the sky even after the sun sinks below the horizon. If you are a star watcher go out to the beach and see all the stars, which I miss at home because of all the light pollution. If you are a shopper, as my wife is, there are many stores. There are many excellent restaurants. We like baked oysters of which there are many in the area. While it is 10 degrees cooler in the panhandle than in lower Florida, the temperature is usually between 50 and 70 degrees. Sometimes going lower and sometimes higher. But is you live up north that is a very comfortable temperature range. And if you can get a group of friends to come with you the stay is so much better.

My wonderful inlaws planned a family vacation to celebrate their 50th anniversary. Beachside II was the perfect destination! From age 70 to 2, our family of 8 had the best week EVER! Our unit comfortably slept all 6 of us, while my inlaws stayed in a different unit. We started each day with a beach walk to watch the sunrise. BB and Pops had a different variety of kid company every morning as some slept in while others woke up ready to go! Then a quick breakfast in our spacious and well stocked kitchen...a real gift on the beach! Daily play in the ocean was just steps away...and the pool was a refreshing transition back into the condo for lunch. We hosted nightly dinners in our unit, as our 6 top table gave us the opportunity to gather all 8 of us around the table together for a family meal of shrimp, crab legs, gumbo from "Shrimpy's" (already prepared perfectly). then grabbed flashlights and went crab hunting before bed. So fun!! the guys cooked streetctacos for us one night. And pizza one. My inlaws treated us to a trip to the gulf-atrium, where my 4 kiddos LOVED seeing the dolphin show and other marine life up close. Fudpuckers is a family favorite lunch spot. And you MUST go to the donut hole for breakfast! The girls went shopping at the outlet mall one afternoon. And we grabbed the Tram and rode over to Bayside one evening for a late dinner and walk down to the boat dock. Spectacular trip of a lifetime with family memories never to be forgotten! This unit was perfect! Beautiful sunset view from the balcony can't be beat! Thank you for a lovely stay in your beautiful and well maintained condo!
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
Wow! What an amazing time you all had and congrats on the anniversary celebration! We are so excited the whole family could gather in one place for fun and to make memories that will last a lifetime.

We are previous guests of Gibson, and have been annually visiting Sandestin for nearly 3 decades. Gibson continues to improve their service every year! The app is simplistic and makes check-in/out a breeze. In regard to this unit specifically, it was spotless and well equipped. While the West Indies decor is not my personal favorite, it was tasteful and comfortable. In my opinion, Beachside II is simply THE BEST for ocean views and layout options, especially with the updates done to the balconies in recent years. Keep up the good work, Gibson! Same time next year :)

This was the perfect condo. From inquiring about and receiving information to check in and check out procedures, Gibson was there. The unit was immaculate and in a perfect location. Wi-Fi was good and everything we needed was there. We couldn't believe how quiet it was. I almost cried when we left. If we had the money, we'd try to buy it. This was our third visit to the area but I finally feel I've discovered our "home away from home."

The condo was just as beautiful in person, as it is in the pictures. Outstanding views. The patio is not over the pool, so it's quiet and peaceful in the evenings. The master bedroom was very warm and cozy; loved the warm colors. Very clean, we would definitely stay there again. The huge soaking tub in the master bathroom was a nice surprise. Everything was perfect.

We had a great time staying at the condo. The check in and out process was very easy using the App. The staff replaced a coffee maker immediately that I thought was broken, but actually wasn't. The staff found some bathing suits left behind and notified us to mail them back. I highly recommend the place and Gibson. The only negative was the comfort of the twin bed, but I am just used to my bed at home. Great condo and very nicely decorated.

The condo is very clean !!wonderful location!!! wonderful views definitely were spending more money on !! We came on spring break two is very very busy elevators took forever ! If you plan on cooking it had horrible kitchen knives !!
The master bedroom king size bed was not comfortable for me and that's due to the springs and I'm not used to that felt like it needed to be replaced my husband liked it . Go figure !!A little tricky with all their codes theirs a code to get to the beach !!they have a code to drive to the property and you have to have a code to get into your room!!
Response from Gibson Beach Rentals, Inc.
We are glad you enjoyed your stay with us yet again. You did travel during the busiest week of the Spring, but we are happy to hear your stay was fun and you loved those gorgeous Gulf views! Mattresses are such a hard fit for everyone as some like soft, hard, fluffy, etc. As you pointed out, even your husband enjoyed it! Hopefully you were able to sleep well and relaxed while away from busy home life. We hope you enjoyed using our easy-to-use app which makes keeping up with your codes and passwords super convenient. No keys, no check-in, it's all easy here for our GBR guests! We hope to see you again soon, maybe when it's a little less crowded!

Our family spent 4 days in this unit for my daughter's 16th birthday. We were very satisfied. The unit was super clean, spacious, and the kitchen was well stocked with dishes, pots & pans-I had everything I needed to bake a cake from scratch. The balcony view is directly of the beach-great view. However, if you like to eat outside, there was no large table and limited seating, probably due to the smaller size of the balcony. Great for 2-3 to sit and enjoy the view. The master bdrm was extremely spacious, large walk-in closet to store clothing, etc., large tub/shower and also a fantastic view of the ocean from bed.

We wanted a nice place on the beach that was close to things to do. Beachside II was a perfect choice. The maintenance that was going on did not disturb us at all and when the original room I had reserved was not ready the day I was to check in, Gibson Beach Rentals called me and upgraded my room at no charge. We will be staying here again in the near future. Thank you for such an enjoyable vacation.
