The condo was very clean with a perfect balcony view of the beach and pool area, with tennis courts and shuffle board also in perfect site. It was great to have included in the rental an umbrella and 2 chairs on the beach. And as always, the beach in Destin is more beautiful than anywhere I’ve been in the US, with crystal clear water and beautiful white sand! We have been coming to Destin for 20+ years and used to stay at a neighboring condo, but stayed at Holiday Surf and Racquet Club several years ago and it was the best decision we have made because Holiday has become our home away from home! I think anyone will agree with me that Holiday Surf and Racquet will get 5 stars every time!

Response from Holiday Surf and Racquet Club

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed the beautiful balcony views, beach amenities, and all the activities our property has to offer. It means the world to us that after many years of visiting Destin, you’ve chosen Holiday Surf and Racquet Club as your home away from home. Your kind words and loyalty are truly appreciated, and we look forward to welcoming you back for many more 5-star stays! Warm regards, HSRC Guest Service Team

Had a wonderful time with my family! The condo was located on the beach which was very convenient for my family. The condo was clean but did not have the same furniture as was shown in the pictures. But it served its purpose. Staff was very friendly...even the beach chair people!

Overall Comment

The 2 bedroom condo was the perfect set-up with plenty of room for our family of 5. King bed in the master and a bunk bed for the kids in the 2nd room was great. We enjoyed the quick elevator ride and walk to the beach. Our chairs were all set up and ready for us to enjoy a full day on the beach. The location was perfect for daily fishing, with a bait store within a couple of miles. Plenty of groceries and restuarants right around the corner. We absolutley plan on coming back soon!

Anniversary trip

Overall Comment

Love Destin forever so wanted to celebrate our anniversary at a place directly on the beach. We checked several places out and read reviews - then decided on Holiday Surf and Racquet Club. Happy to say that it was a good decision! We had a two bedroom - two bath unit with a nice balcony directly on the beach on 5th floor. Was quiet with comfortable beds and plenty of room. The building is older but well maintained. Had 3 tvs and internet was good. Also located centrally so you can get anywhere and there is a Winn Dixie/Target shopping area real close. Asked at front desk about local restaurants and was given a nice list with choices for different kind of foods. We decided to go to Mimmos, McGuires Irish Pub and Boshamps. Great food at all these restaurants!! Of course we had breakfast at the DoNut Hole. Staff was helpful whenever we needed.

We had a very enjoyable stay at HSRC. Unit exceeded expectations. Nice new comfortable living room furniture since pictures taken. With a couple of exceptions (rusty balcony furniture and pool closed during a portion of our stay), we had a great experience. Loved the quieter location and enjoyed walks to the jetty.

Thank you for sharing your experience. We hope you will return soon.

We love HSRC. We stay there every year in the Fall. This unit (517) was perfect for our family. The only suggestion I have for this unit is to consider upgrading the mattresses, and maybe add a couple more pots to the kitchen.

Overall Comment

When we checked in 3 of the dining room chairs were broken. We were disappointed that the large TV was located in the master bedroom and the small TV was in the living room. It would be nice to have these TV's changed around. The light in the 2nd bedroom is very dim. Would be great to have a recliner. Master bedroom mattress needs replacing.
