Then he put you where he wanted you to be.Thats not first come! Dryer in condo took forever to dry my 4 towels issued to us. I had to run them thru dry cycle at least 4 times,not convient when on vacation. Sleeper sofa not comfortable. Condo was decorated beautifully great job. Bed in bedroom was wonderful, miss it.

A local family's trip to the Beach

Newman-Dailey generously donated this condo pkg to the Ft Walton Beach Viking Band's 34th annual auction. We bid on the pkg and won. This condo has a nice gulf view, is well equpped, and was quite comfortable. It is centrally located to the beach (right across the street) and numerous restaurants (we liked Pompano Joe's). The condo sports two nice pools, one with a hot tub, tennis courts, and a workout room. Newman-Dailey was very professional to work with (thanks Laura). The condo was very clean too. Thank you Newman-Dailey for the wonderful time we had! Also, the beaches were gloriously crystal clear and the seafood was delicious!
We can't wait to come back!

We enjoyed our stay at Maravilla Condo 4402. It met and exceeded our expectations! Very clean & well equipt. The only one thing I think we could have used was perhaps one more comfortable chair.
It was nice to have the table and 4 chairs, but almost think it would be beneficial to have a small table that would seat 2, and then perhaps a small love seat or another chair in the extra space.
Thank you for our stay!

Maravilla 1310
Reviewed on Saturday, October 09, 2010
This was a very nice condo. Exactly as pictured. The unit was very clean and nicely decorated. The kitchen was nicely stocked. The closets had hangers and extra blankets, which is a biggie for me. The beds and furniture were nice and comfortable. The only negative thing about the unit was the dryer. It took about 3 hrs. to dry one load of clothes. I did not take the time to report this. Overrall, I was very happy with this unit and would stay here again. I was extremely impressed with Newman-Daily Resort Properties. Very organized and effecient. And I loved the extra amenties we received with the condo. Great deal and plan to rent from them again soon!!
Last minute break at the beach
Reviewed on Thursday, September 16, 2010
Newman-Dailey was very easy to work with, especially on this last minute booking. The unit I requested was in perfect order: clean, stocked, appeared as advertised, etc. The only thing I would note is that the agency needs to make clear is the configuration of the bedrooms. The second bedroom is actually a loft so there is no door to close for privacy. The "third" bedroom containing two twin beds is actually a space just beyond the "loft bedroom" and also has no door. It would be a good place to put children, but for adults expecting their own bedrooms, it is a drawback. The main thing is that Newman-Dailey needs to explain that on its website. Saying "3 bedroom" is misleading.

We stayed in this unit for 1 week in June 2010. The unit is nicely decorated, very well equipped & comfortable enough for our party of 4 adults & 4 older teens. The beds are large & comfortable, even the bunks. We ate in alot & the kitchen had everything we needed to prepare meals There were plenty of bath towels for everyone. The location is convient to most everything & the atmosphere is very relaxing. A few minor issues we experienced were 1: the dishwasher was non-functional upon our arrival, but one phone call and it was replaced, though not till the end of the week, 2: the master bedroom tv only picks a few channels so bring some dvd's if you like to watch tv in bed & 3: the morning sun on the balcony is very strong in the early morning which makes sipping your morning coffee a little sweaty. We would definately have no issue staying in this unit again. The staff at Newman Daily were great and I won't hesitate to contact them in the future.
Oil or not Destin is a great spot for a vacation with children.

We are return visitors to Destin. Our first trip to Destin we stayed on Holiday Isles, and every return visit we move further east from the heart of Destin. Miramar Beach is a great area, and Maravilla is a convenient location. Our stay at Maravilla was wonderful. The complex is across old 98 to the beach, and access to the beach is convenient. My only complaints about this unit was the amount of sand on the floors when we arrived. I know there is going to be a certain amount of sand, but it was excessive, like the floors had not been cleaned. The grounds of Maravilla are well maintained and the pools are good. Did not love the trek to the dumpsters for trash disposal. We loved our stay, and can't wait to come back again.
Best vacation ever!

Family Reunion

When my first born joined the Army, I discovered it was a lot harder to cut the cord than I thought it would be. He was to spend nine months at Eglin Air Force base for training and I thought that was unreasonably long for a mother to be expected to go in between visits. So we went to him. The first thing I was impressed with was your staff who went out of their way to serve us and shower us with kindness. Our condo was so beautiful and so comfortable, it was like home for the few days that we stayed there. In fact, we spent quite a bit of time there, as all we really wanted to do was to be together as a family. My son will be graduating from his training in September ... we'll be contacting you for a place to stay.
Thank you so much for a memorable vacation.

The property was great. The only downfall was the instructions for checking in after 5:00. Also, a map of the property would be great showing you which condos are which. It was a little confusing trying to figure out where the condo was. It was dark and you couldn't see the numbers on the buildings. I like the combination lock to get in and out of the condo. The kids could easily get in and out without having a key and possibly losing the key. Great location, close to almost everything! The only problems at the condo was the glass was taken out of the coffee table. That would have been nice to know. The dryer was also not the greatest. Took a long time to dry and had to restart it at least 2-3 times. 3rd bedroom with bunk beds, a bit small for taller children. My son ended sleeping on the couch which seemed to be longer. Other than that--we loved it there.
Peaceful Spring Break Getaway

Reservation, housekeeping & amenities were all fantastic. The home was tastefully furnished. The location was perfect (open beach just across the road & Pompano Joe's within walking distance). We liked the geographical location the best and the simple fact that we had less than a full view (however, a great partial view) of the Gulf.

Home Away From Home

Well first of all my family and I arrived after hours and there was a assistant waiting to assist us he gave us all the information we needed and a bag of goodies for our stay. The home was a three bedroom condo it was really beautiful we all loved it. The location was nice right off the beach it was literally 10 seconds away,We enjoyed the hot tub,pool,basketball court, tennis court and gym right outside the door. The people were so friendly and welcoming. The only thing I didnt like about the condo the upstairs bedroom didnt have a door so you could hear everything that was going on downstairs but the best thing I loved was we were surrounded by restaraunts and shopping center so we had alot of places and events to choose from I can't wait to next year vacation with Newman Dailey is a must every year.

The condominium was very nice, it provided everythin we needed to enjoy our visit.Everything that i would need or have in my own kitchen was provided. The condos were just across the street from the beach, we had access to all of the emenities there. The place was smaller than i expected for the price and didn't have the plazma tv's and dvd players that i thought were going to be there. My overall experience was wonderful, we slept comfortably,pharmasist,department, and walmart was close. I absolutly loved the spot, and we're thinking of making this our annual summer vacation spot. This was my first time renting a condo and booking it online made it very easy. Newman Dailey get a Five Star rating from my family and I. Thanks

We arrived at the leasing office before our scheduled check in time. The man at the office was very helpful and informative. By the time we arrived at the condo I received a call that it was ready - about an hour early. The condo was wonderful, our kids loved it and we were right at the beach. The condo had a full kitchen, washer dryer, 2 bedrooms with televisions and one in the living room. The beds could have been a little more comfortable and the tv in the master bedroom didn't get great reception - but we were there to hit the beach not watch television!! The whole area was great. We would go back next year!
The vacation of missconceptions
Reviewed on Wednesday, July 29, 2009
My family and I stayed at the Maravilla Condo Complex. We now refer to it as "hellavilla" why you might wonder, so please let me tell you. The first day of arrival we had high hopes, we we arrived at Maravilla we quickly became confused due to the fact that aparently there was some miscommunication because we arrived to what I like to call a retirement community, a bad one at that.
When booking the trip we were under the impression that we could atleast see the beach, surprise we could not, we could only see the houses for rent that we did not stay in. I bet they had a decent view. As for the unit itself was ok however the matress/sheets in the pullout were filthy and many oreo cookies found there way under the couch from previous familys. The beds were subpar, prisoners probably have better matresses. As for the Souther Star dolphin cruise that was terrible and was a rip off. I am almost positive I will never use Newman-Dailey ever agine. Your company is very deceptive and crooked when it comes to priceing and discreptions of the properties and yes I checked arround a have a nice list of places I will be staying next time *on the beach* for less money than I wasted with you all. So I thank you Newman-Dailey for NOTHING this trip was very bad!!!!

The service that we received was great. They were really friendly people to go through for the room. The home was spectacular due to the view from the deck and the accomodations were nice. The amenities with the condo were great to have especially the pools while not at the beach. The club house and amenities with it were great as well.It was within a lot of walking distance to several areas we visited. The one thing that I liked the least was that we were told not to bring pets, but there were several pets there and the pets excess. Not bad though. It didn't spoil my vacation. I just thought that it was odd when I saw pets around the area when I was told not to bring them. I will especially book this accomodation again the next time I am in Destin.

Everything went smoothly and was just as described. There is a continual sound of 'thunder' which is actually the sound of people walking on the walkways on other floors &/or sliding open the patio doors. The dishwasher was not attached to the cabinetry so the whole unit moved around and was difficult to use. Unit was superclean, plenty of room. We had everything we wanted and more! Location was AWESOME!! Just a minute from the beach which our kids loved!

The condo had more than enough room for us, which includes my husband, myself, our 8 yr old daughter and my parents. The entire place was well kept inside and out. The ladies at the check in office were very helpful and kind. We had a good view of the ocean from our room. We really liked having a kitchen and washer/dryer. The only negative about the stay was the fact that the condo was not right on the beach and we had to cross a road to get to the beach. However, there was little traffic and it was not that far to go. All worth it!!!

With the condo there was not a problem, but where we ran into problems was with Newman Dailey service itself. We checked in late and they had the wrong key code, so we could not get into the condo. The phone available operator told us it would be over 45 min to get someone to fix the key code. Also, the personnel that I spoke with about the condo assured me that it was beach front and it is not - it's across the street from the beach and there is a small view of the ocean from the condo balcony. Again, the condo itself is nice, we were just disappointed to find that we were not on the beach.
