Interior and Security: There are queen size beds in the second and third bedroom, and three full baths. The second bedroom is, in effect, a second master suite with access to its own full bath. The great room sofa is a queen sleeper, and an additional roll-away single twin bed is also included, most suitable for a child. This condominium has all the comforts of home. Tastefully decorated, Villa Champagne offers more than 1950 square feet of living space, so you will be able to enjoy your time indoors as much as your time on the beach. Destin Towers is a gated resort, with modern electronic security at all accesses (even the beach gate), so you will feel safe and secure during your relaxing stay.

Southern Living magazines recommends Destin Towers: The April 2007 edition of Southern Living Magazine contains a feature article on vacationing in Destin called the 'Destin Family Beach Guide.' You can go to Southern Living on line, and search Destin to find the Southern Living Destin Family Beach Guide Slide Show. The feature includes information on lodging, activities, restaurants, and shopping. The authors conclude that when vacationing in Destin, renting a condo is the way to go, but choosing a condo can be tricky. To assist the reader, the authors list their top picks in the 'Condo Favorites' section of the article, and name Destin Towers as one of the top picks, noting that after a few days at Destin Towers, you will feel more like a resident than a visitor.

Beach and beach services: Beach service is available from March - November at very reasonable daily or weekly rates. Destin Towers is a low density condominium and owns the Gulf-front beach. There are only 45 units in Destin Towers, and only about half of them are available for rental, so the common areas are uncrowded, and you won't have to jostle to get that 'front row' beach spot. Also, with two elevators, you won't be wasting valuable vacation time waiting for an elevator. This is a non-smoking condominium. No pets are allowed. Minimum age for renters is 25 years old.

Guest Book: We stayed at Villa Champagne summer of 2007 with some good friends ... This was a truly wonderful experience for them. We were in awe of the beautiful condo and the view of the water. We have stayed in several condo's around Destin and Holiday Isle and this is by far the most beautiful and wonderfully kept place we have ever stayed. The Champagne's were such a pleasure to work with and we will certainly do this again. (Kim, Athens, TX) .....The Villa Champagne is a beautiful place to stay. The accommodations are wonderful, the scenery is breath taking. Our family of 7 was very comfortable, plenty of space for everyone. (Kim, Morganton, NC)......We had the pleasure of staying in this condo over the Labor Day holiday 2007... We actually stayed here with Mike's brother and his family - so that's 2 families - and there was PLENTY of room. I absolutely loved the Master Bath - as my niece said - this is right out of an episode of 'CRIBS'. I had to laugh at that one! (Christy, Slidell, LA)

Other Activities: Deep sea fishing. Destin harbor provides easy access to Gulf of Mexico
