After reading some not so great reviews of Ariel Dunes in Destin (technically Miramar Beach) prior to leaving, I was a bit hesitant about keeping the reservation. Boy am I glad I did. I wonder if the people that were charged extra upon arriving went through some less than honest businesses. I couldn't have had a better experience. I purchased... more

We arrived after hours and had no problem getting the information needed (code for room) from the after hours phone #. The room (#1908) was gorgeous! The view was beautiful! I prepared to make coffee the for the next morning, and the carafe was broken. The next morning I took it to the check-in desk, and they graciously provided us... more

My husband and I went to Ariel Dunes for our honeymoon. We had one of the penthouse lofts. The place was beautiful and very clean. Our condo was great and the views were awesome. We would defininetly stay here again. We would have our morning coffee overlooking the golf course and bay and then enjoy our days on the beautiful... more

I would not however BOOK-IT the same way.Not only did there web site not allow you to print out your selection, but some how what you chose and what you... more

The property is near the beach (walking distance), but I had read and seen advertised that there was some kind of train that gives you a ride from the condo to the beach and back. They said it was not working. Next the office closes... more

The view a touch blocked by other condo's...The pool was cold! The beach water was warmer....Also, loved the large balcony in front (L shaped),,,,,rear balcony almost useless due... more

My wife and I, as well as two other couples, stayed at the Ariel Dunes the weekend of July 11th, 2008. We booked our stay through book-it and had no problems with our reservations. I believe the problems stated in earlier reviews about unstated charges have been remedied because all of our charges were correct. We payed 687.20 including tax... more

I was very impressed with the room and property. The room was very nicely appointed, and had many more things than I thought would be there, such as a blender, coffee maker, etc., but that probably varies by room. For the building having 24 floors, I was very impressed with the speed of the elevators, it never seemed like the... more

For my club's Girlfriend Getaway, we stayed at Ariel Dunes. It was awesome!!! The condo was beautiful, with great amenities. Very stylish and chic. Had a wonderful view of the beach from our balcony. It was very spacious. We would definitely consider Ariel Dunes next time we're vacationing in Destin. more
