Great pool. Very well located. Close to the beach. Overall a good experience. The only con is that I had to upgrade to a better room because the ones I reserved had some issues. more

We have stayed at Sterling Shores many times over the years. It has been a favorite. however, it seems to have gone down over the years. Our condo itself was the best ever, rented from VRBO website, but there are many drawbacks. It is a long, long walk to beach with young children. Our condo owner was nice enough to... more

8 Girlfriends from Illinois, Indiana, California & Louisiana for a week had an awesome time. There are nice restaurants within walking distance, service at the condo is excellent. The only thing this complex is missing is being directly on th beach. Dont; get me wrong my family & i have been coming to Sterling Shores for the past 4 years.... more

Ok we booked through bookit.com which provided very little in the way of pictures, expectations. I checked out only to find out I will be charged $149 cleaning fee and a non-refundable $40 fee for insurance during my stay. I checked in on a Sunday which normally is done through a security guard in other resorts. Here, they just leave... more

This is a great facility, well run. Wonderful pool, and just across a not-so-busy little road to the beach. Wonderful restaurants nearby in walking distance. The beach is as good as anywhere else in Destin. (there is no bad beach in Destin!!). I would highly recommend this facility for your vacation. more

2 pools, the family pool is a huge lagoon pool great for small children. Good location close to everything , short walk to beach, beach area belonging to resort is small but manageable. Never rent from the actual resort friends of ours made that mistake and paid more than double what we paid. rent from website www.vrbo.com bargain with owners... more

We spent 7 days at Sterling Shores. We were new to the Condo experience, so to say the least I was not expecting to wash and clean. Pros: The condo was centrally located to everything in Destin. The pool was nice and huge. The 3 bedroom condo was very roomy. We were on the 9th floor so the view was... more

This resort was very clean and no complaints about our 2bed/2 bath unit on the third floor. Absolutely no view of the beach but could see the ocean. Very short walk to the beach which was convenient with kids. One of the pools claims to be heated but unless it is warm don't plan on swimming. Heaters do a minimal... more

The best customer service! Friendly, fun, helpful and accomadating. We had 2 bd 2 bth. Tiny bedrooms. More than 2 people would have been cramped at best. It was clean and I'm picky about clean. Mattress was awful. We slept in valleys. Pool area is lovely. Free movie rental is a plus. more

We were there for spring break in March 08 with two teenage boys. The location is a really good one with the beach being right there. Our unit was very nice and clean. And the ocean view was excellent! Staff was very pleasant and friendly! Great location as far as being central to everything in Destin. more
