300 Steps to the Emerald Beach

This 2 bedroom, 2 bath condo is just 300 steps to the emerald coast beaches of Destin Florida. The private beach access and availability of beach services will make your day at the beach a breeze. This unit is conveniently located between the Destin Harbor Walk which offers charter fishing, rental boats, jet skies, and access to the world famous Crab Island. Equal distance to Sandestin’s Baytowne Wharf, a fun filled day of outdoor adventures for the whole family. The unit is surrounded by great beach front dining and access to all the local seafood you can eat, or cook at home with the fully equipped kitchen this unit offers. If a quiet day relaxing by the heated pool is in your plans, it just a few steps away from the front door.

The unit sleeps 8, comfortably with 3 queen size beds and a queen pullout sofa. Cathedral ceilings provide a wide open feel. To make your vacation even easier we provided a closet full of beach chairs, beach toys, a cooler and a beach wagon to carry all the gear in. Also provided are tennis rackets for use at the our courts.

Your evenings will be filled with fireworks, live music, night life and all the amenities Destin has to offer. We hope you enjoy your stay!

Review

We feel the picture for the condo was misleading. We thought we would be staying on the beach but instead we had to walk across the street to get to the beach. The condo is close to 2 awesome restaurants which we loved but no local shopping near by. The guest bathtub leaked water the whole time. The furniture needs to be cleaned and was not very comfortable. There was not any basic condiments to start with and nearest grocery store is a 50 min walk.

Fantastic Location!

This condo has a great location! Just a short walk across the street to private beach access. The unit was clean and the kitchen was stocked with everything you could need. The owner was super responsive, and even let us know we could check in early. I’d definitely book this unit again. Tip: If you’ll need to wash clothes during your stay, make sure you bring quarters for the on site washer and dryer.

We had a great stay! Our unit was within walking distance of the beach, but one of the pluses was that we had everything we needed for our days spent at the beach provided for us. No need to pack sand/water toys, chairs, and wagon.

Cute condo walking distance to beach

This is a cute place that slept seven comfortably. The pool was nice. We enjoyed the pickleball courts. It’s a very short walk to the beach. Destin beaches are gorgeous. Close proximity to stores, restaurants, and various attractions.

A lovely place to escape to

The condo is beautiful and was very clean and comfortable. I can’t think of one bad thing to say. We explored gorgeous beaches and marinas, restaurants. We shopped and just relaxed in the condo and on the patio. The weather was mostly in the 60s, good for everything we wanted to do. We did not swim but had our feet in the heated pool and the gulf. Thank you for sharing your beach house with us.

Great for a family stay, convenient and close to the beach

We really enjoyed the condo. Out the gate Andrew was easy to communicate with. He was forthcoming about the property and my questions about the area & the best way to rent equipment we needed for our infant. The check in process was extremely easy & painless but Andrew made sure to make himself available. He also lists all needed info re: the property (exact location, name of residence, parking etc.) so I had all the details needed. Andrew was also extremely responsive when additional questions came up. The property is very close to the beach, less than a 10 minute walk. This is its biggest draw. The beach is private so much less crowded than other areas. We also appreciated the beach wagon and beach amenities provided bc we went to the beach each day. Recommend renting some kind of canopy or tent as this is not an amenity included. This unit is right next to the pool and laundry room which was really convenient as a family of 8 staying. You need quarters or an app for laundry. The one draw back to being by the pool is noise, which you can hear from the balcony/master, which we had the babies crib in. For baby rental items we used BabyQuip & Catherine was great and was familiar with the property. She had no problem working with Andrew & the property manager Kelley. 5/5 stay! Very few critiques: update to welcome manual, seems old. Extra essentials like trash bags, TP, pillows, blankets for sofa bed (which Kelley did provide after a prompt response from Andrew). Thanks Andrew
