amazing property with very easy access to the beach

The condo was well stocked with everything needed. It was clean and quiet and very welcoming. It was easy to walk to the beach and obtain to beach chairs and an umbrella from the staff working down there. They were very professional and kind.We will definitely return in the future.

great stay!

Very nice, clean, updated, nice furniture, well maintained. Nice location close to pool and hot tub.. nice screened in sitting area. Only complaint is too many stairs going to the beach, one of us couldn’t utilize the beach because of the stairs. Was expecting a ramp or fewer stairs. Available chairs and umbrella was nice to have as well.

a home away from home

Spent my husband's 60th birthday at this resort. It was awesome! The accommodations were clean and relaxing. He is already thinking of returning next year. Thank you so much for making his 60th an awesome experience. We had so much to do, we didn't have enough time to get it all done

great condo

We had a great time at Hidden Dunes. The condo was even better in person. It felt very clean and spacious. We appreciated the updated master shower too! It was a quick walk to the beach and having the 2 free beach chairs and the guys there to set them up and help carry beach gear down was awesome! Hidden Dunes felt very quaint and well taken care of. We enjoyed our stay.

clean and family friendly

The condo was very nice. Walking distance to multiple family friendly environments such as, beach, basketball court, playground, pond for fishing, pools, horseshoes and corn hole, etc. the way the resort sets the umbrellas on the beach for beach service is different then I have seen before, (u-shaped), but allows for all umbrellas to see the water and you can put your personal chairs in the water. Will definitely be back to visit.

excellent

My family and my sisters family rented two cottages. Both cottages were beautiful and equipped with everything we needed. It was too cool to swim in the ocean ( thanksgiving) so we really enjoyed the heated pool and hot tub. We did some shopping at the near by outlet malls and visited the boardwalk in Destin. The kids enjoyed the basketball court near our cottage. We would definitely stay here again. It’s a beautiful, clean resort

This was our first family outing since my husband passed away in December. We needed this vacation. We had the best time!! The cottage was perfect for us, we loved it. It was clean when we arrived. It was a quiet location, close enough to the beach to walk, swimming pool practically at the backdoor (which the kids loved), basketball court across the street, and close to shops, restaurants, and activities. We hope to be back next year!!!

excellent choice

Very quiet, clean and spacious. 24/7 security guards on site and gated community. Felt very safe. We had everything we needed. Easy access to the beach, pool and hot tub! I recommend bringing your own sheets, they were a little scratchy however I may be a little picky as my friend pointed out. Great place, we will go back!

hidden dunes cottage 198

My family of five stayed at this cottage during our Christmas Break. This cottage was everything we hoped for! This cottage was beautifully tiled throughout, so the previous posts about the carpeting can be ignored. This cottage was clean and well maintained! We had no problems or difficulties at all! It was our very first stay at Hidden Dunes and our experience was excellent! I would highly recommend staying at Hidden Dunes and Cottage 198! You will not be disappointed! We definitely will be staying at Cottage 198 again in our future!

our vacation was great!!

This condo was excellent for us. We had 5 adults and 2 children. We stayed here for a full week. Everyone had plenty of room and we didnt feel like we were invading each others privacy. The kids loved how close the pool and beach were to the condo. We all loved the amenities, range of restaurants, shopping centers and grocery store access. You will love this place! It was our first trip to Destin and I would not hesitate to book this condo again in the future!!!

it was the perfect resort location for our family vacation.

We chose this resort because of the amenities and access to the beach. The tennis was great, the grounds and pools were beautiful, and the location of the cottage was perfect. It was nicely updated and comfortable. We would definitely consider staying here again on our next visit to Destin.

vacation in paradise

This was our first family vacation to Hidden Dunes and I am certain that this will not be our last! We had a wonderful time throughout the entire vacation. The instant we walked into Cottage 198, we felt at home. Everything was on hand for us, from the pots and pans to extra beach toys for the kids. This place was awesome! The management staff were very courteous and made sure that we were settled in. An added convenience was having the beach, pool,playground and basketball courts within walking distance! My only regret was having to leave the place! We will definitely make a return trip to Hidden Dunes, this was a vacation in paradise!
