★★★★★ 5 of 5
Loved our stay at Cabana Club! The condo is steps from the beach, and the views are amazing. The condo was fully stocked with everything you will need for a great beach vacation, including kitchen utensils, pans, cups, and extra towels under the bathroom sink. The washer and dryer was a definite plus with our family of 5 staying for 5 days. Missing the beach and already planning our next stay!

Cabana Club 202
by Michelle
★★★★★ 5 of 5
Loved our recent stay at CC202. Condo was nicely decorated and the king sized bed very comfortable. Condo was well stocked with kitchen items. Really appreciated the salt and pepper. It’s the little things really. Check in a breeze as everything was paid beforehand and all I needed was a code to get in. No lost keys here. Will definitely stay here again.

We have stayed at Cabana Club on a few occasions; however, the condo we normally book was not available so we were happy to be able to find another one available during the timeframe we desired. Needless to say, we were extremely pleased. The condo was perfect and had everything we would possibly need. We hope to be back ... this condo will be our first choice.

Everything was Top Drawer
by Jim B.
★★★★★ 5 of 5
Saying Unit 202 at Havana Club is First Rate is an understatement. Everything was top drawer. We had one problem during our visit and this is where your Resort company is so important. The dryer, as mechanical things sometimes will, malfunctioned. Saltwater Vacations stepped in offering to pick up our laundry and take it to the laundromat for us, and then paying for it. This was above and beyond the Call of Duty. Wonderful condo, wonderful view, and a wonderful company to deal with. Thank you, Kati and crew.

Exceeded Expectations
by Ashleigh R.
★★★★★ 5 of 5
What a beautiful condo!! It truly exceeded our expectations. Everything was so nice & clean and the bed was so comfortable which is a top priority for us. We love having a private beach in that area so I would highly recommend to anyone. The only issue we encountered was the dryer didn't work. (We didn't want to have to wait on a maintenance person so we didn't report it.)

We have a family of 6 and there was plenty room for everyone. Perfect location near grocery store and shopping, the harbor is just a little drive away. Oh and the best part is the beautiful beach view and gorgeous clear water. We will definitely return to this location.

Working with Dale Peterson staff was a pleasure. Everyone was very helpful. The location of this unit is great and the view spectacular. The bathrooms in this unit need to be updated. The shower is very small and the floor of the shower can get slippery.

The best vacation ever!
by Sherry and Gary
★★★★★ 5 of 5
We love the Cabana Club. Everything about unit 202 meets our needs. We love the view from the living room, it is breathtaking. Everything in the condo makes our stay comfortable. We like the elevator, the parking, the entry to the beach, the cleanliness and beauty of the outside,the flowers and palm trees.We found the people to be very friendly. We love Scenic 98 and feel very safe walking on the beach or on the street. We are looking forward to being there next January and February.

★★★★★ 5 of 5
We recently stayed at Cabana Club #202. The service was great with Dale E. Peterson Vacations and we were pleasantly surprised at the condo. Although it could use a bit of updating, it was very comfortable (based on other reviews didn't even try the sleeper sofa just used bunk beds), did have a flat screen in the living room (looks like an analogue in the picture)and wow! location, location, location. If you want to be away from the bright lights and lot's of people, and still close to everything, this is your place. My daughter's first trip to Florida and it has been many, many years since I have been. What have I been waiting for?! We'll be back to Cabana Club and I would stay in #202 anytime.

Love the Cabana Club
by retired teacher couple
★★★★★ 5 of 5
We come to the Cabana Club often. Can't beat the Cabana Club for the view, location and comfort. It's just the right size too. And there is not a busy swimming pool right in your beach view like so many other condos. Unit 202 met our high expectations and was clean, quiet, and comfortable. One of the toilets stopped up during our stay and one bathroom sink drained slowly. Our service request was answered very promptly and we were called when the plumber could come so that we could be away from the unit if we wanted to. Very nice that we didn't have to wait and open the door for him. The job was done quickly well before we finished a short walk on the beach. Good service. There are good room darkening drapes in the living area (which has bunk beds and sleeper sofa) but the bedroom blinds let in some light. Next time we are bringing sleep masks. We will definitely be back.

Perfect
by Lillian Trevino
★★★★★ 5 of 5
When they say "on the beach" they mean it! Overlooking the ocean everyday was absolutely priceless. You have a code to get into the gate that leads you to the deck/walkway that disappears in the soft sand. The beach to person ratio was perfect!! You didn't feel overcrowded in any way. Although the Cabana did not provide an umbrella or chairs for the beach, they were set up ready to be rented by the day or the week every morning by the time you awaken. This is our 2nd year staying here and renting from Dale E Peterson. I called them several times this year because they don't have keys to get into the door but rather a door code and the customer service I received was great! This condo it just a min or so away from Wal-Mart, Target (with a Starbucks!), Bubba Gump, Fudpuckers, Joes Crab Shack, Hard Rock Café, the Gulfarium, and shopping centers. Perfect location!

Relaxing, beautiful view and nice accomodations.
by Texans
★★★★★ 5 of 5
The condo was well furnished with everything to make a more than comfortable stay. The view was excellent. We enjoyed watching dolphins from the balcony. We will definitely stay here again. The location was close to any needed supplies, everything was very clean and nice quality.
The check-in was the easiest we have ever encountered and we travel 4-6 weeks out of the year.

I was impressed with how easy and accessible it was to tour and rent the condominiums. We enjoyed the first week so much and decided to stay another. The ajents quickly yet accurately referred us to a second property that was available throuhout the remainder of our stay. Each of the units have been clwan and very accomodating and well supplied.

The Cabana Club is in a great location right on the beach. This part of the beach is a bit less crowded and we loved being able to walk right on to the sugar sand! The unit itself was well furnished with a sophisticated feel to it.

Couldn't Have Been Better!!!
by LDMuniz
★★★★★ 5 of 5
This was our fist trip to Destin and got more than we ever expected! Our room was in excellent condition with a wonderful view of the beach. The amenities were a great experience as well--we really enjoyed our fishing trip. Our condo was in a great location--not too far nor too close to all the action of Destin Harbor. We enjoyed the quietness and privacy of our condo and beach area. The only thing I would have changed would have been that the jacuzzi in our room did not work properly, but it wasn't really a big deal with the beach so close. It was truly a beautiful and wonderful vacation. We can't wait to go back next summer!

by Flur
★★★★★ 5 of 5
The unit was wonderful! It was exactly like it was described. The location on the beach was perfect. There weren't a lot of people on the beach outside this condo. We liked the private entrance to the beach. We always had a parking spot.
We didn't use any of the amenities that came with the condo. If we had stayed longer, we would have, though.
We've told everyone we know about this condo. When we go back to Destin, we'll definitely try staying here again!!!
The only thing that didn't work were the jets in the bathtub.

This is our second stay at Cabana Club. Unit #202 was very clean and so comfortable to stay in! The staff at Dale Peterson Vacations was very helpful and easy to work with. We love these condos because the beach in front is not crowded at all and the atmosphere is very family-friendly.
The only frustration was the people in the unit below us were grilling (illegal!) on their deck and our unit smelled like starter fluid for hours. That unit is not managed by Dale Peterson Vacations, so it was impossible for us to report these people. Maybe there should be a number posted on the fridge for renters to report things like this.
We will be staying here again in the future!

We loved it!!!

★★★★★ 5 of 5
We arrived on a Friday and left on a Monday morning. We had a group of 5 25-30 year old girls and we had a blast. The apartment is prettier than I expected with a lot more room than I thought it would have. The bathroom has a jet tub and shower in one room and then there was rooms on either side of the bathroom that each had a toilet and sink.
The bedroom had a large closet with a mirror in it, so we were able to all spread out all over the aparment to get ready to go out.
The beach right outside the building is clean and well kept. The balcony looks right out over the ocean and beach and is big enough for us to all sit outside and relax.
A restaurant/bar called The Crab Trap was within a short walk from the Cabana Club. We walked down during the day to get a snack and a couple drinks and they were fine with us coming in with no shoes and wearing our bathing suits.
There is a great night life in Destin, but you would never know it by staying at the Cabana Club. It is nice and peaceful on that end of Destin. We took cabs every night to the West end of Destin to go out.
I cannot wait to go back and bring my husband and kids. I will definitely stay at the Cabana Club again!

My family and I enjoyed staying at the Cabana clud location, it's was home away from home. We had a wonderful experience with customer service, it helps when you have people who care and understand, that makes being on vacation even more
enjoyable. So thanks to the staff at Dale E. Peterson.

Honeymoon
by Matthew
★★★★★ 5 of 5
Had a great honeymoon here. Totally worth the price. Off season is definately the time to visit! The accomodations were better than we expected.
I would suggest to anyone staying for several days to stock up on grocery items after arriving. You'll save tons on cooking in and it's well suited to prepare a meal.
We visited a larger motel in Panama City the night after leaving Destin, and for what we had to pay for our "room" there - it only made our stay in Destin seem so much nicer.
Destin is definately my choice for Florida vacations!

A Vacation Blessing
by Ellen W.
★★★★★ 5 of 5
Cabana Club was a Paradise for me just after Labor Day, just after Hurricane Gustav ravaged Baton Rouge,La. where I call home. I had gone 8 days without electricity or air conditioning in 90 degree heat. Having already rented this condo, I was debating leaving Baton Rouge. It was the best decision I could have ever made! Cabana Club was a fresh breath of Ocean Air, the Roar of the Surf to rock you to sleep at night, and a million stars and a full moon to walk the beach at night. The Air conditioning alone was worth every penny spent there.
I slept and relaxed on the balcony and took long walks on the Beach in the fresh air. The food in Destin is exceptional, and it was so great to just drive down the street with working red lights, and no red light cameras. The Cabana Club in Destin is a true Paradise on Earth, and I will be returning, hopefully for longer stays in the future.
