My family stayed at the Destin Gulfgate during summer 2010 (it wont give me that option on my review page so i had to enter a different date). We shared a condo with my sister in law and her family (total of 4 adults and 5 children). The condo was spacious enough for our families, and it is located on... More

This was our second time staying here, and our 11th time visiting Destin. This is really the best place to stay - right on the water, good sized and clean condos, and convenient to the various things to do in the Destin area. The four of us were very comfortable and had a great stay. The only concern was that... More

Second stay here, 15th visit to Destin. We finally found this place last year after years of searching for just the right spot for our family. Not too big, like some, or too small. Right on the beach, not across the street or several hundred yards walk to the beach. Look for a unit with covered parking under the building-... More

My fiancee and I visited Gulfgate in early September this year and were almost unprepared for how nice it was. The view from our balcony was worth the trip. The private beach and location on the beach couldn't have been nicer. We enjoyed plenty of room and it was very quiet. We could turn off the A/C, open the sliding... More

This was a 4 day get-away over Labor day weekend for myself, my husband, my son and his girlfriend so we wanted something roomy and right on the beach. We couldn't have asked for a nicer beach location. All of the units have ocean views and you couldn't get any closer to the beach. The unit is laid out in... More

My wife and I along with my brother in law and sister in law stayed at the Destin Gulfgate from 8/18 - 8/25. We have been to the Destin area several times but this was the first time at the Destin Gulfgate. The condo we rented (unit 601) was very clean and everything worked fine. There were ceiling fans in... More

Last week we stayed at the Destin Gulfgate in Destin, Florida. This was approximately our 15th visit to the Gulfgate. Obviously, we love coming here! We can't imagine staying anyplace else every summer on our vacation to the beach. Each year we stay in different units and have found all of them to be beautifully decorated and comfortable. The units... More

This place is amazing for one key reason- breathtaking views of the gulf...we were in condo 506 which was nicely done with all the amenities in place. Access to the beach is wonderful, the beach chairs need a revamp but the beach attendant is hardworking and makes sure everyone is comfortable. Smoking seems like a city wide problem in Destin....and... More

We have been staying at this resort for over 6 years. I have hosted my bachelorette weekend, baby shower, family vacations and celebrated birthdays here. Everything has always been beyond perfect however this visit we experienced another tenant blasting music into the bayside pool area from their balcony. After making several calls to complain to management, they refused to do... More
