Pros

Amazing staff all around. Travel nurse friendly. Manager/Supervisor easy to work with.

Cons

Cost of renting a place in the area, especially spring and summer time (approx. $2400/month). You could stay in Destin area a little cheaper, but the drive is longer due to traffic in spring and summer.
