WHAT TO LOVE ABOUT THIS HOME:

Destiny on the Sand is an end unit with 10' of extra land and space with 33' of beach frontage! You can walk directly onto your very own private beach and play in the emerald green waters of the Gulf of Mexico. From the top floor private deck, you can see the coastline from Destin all the way to Panama City Beach! The main floor has the kitchen with granite countertops and stainless-steel appliances, a dining area, living area, sunroom, and a large 25'x14' deck! The Master Bedroom is located on the top floor with a wall of windows to give you a gorgeous view of the white sandy beach and the Gulf of Mexico! One additional bedroom with a full bathroom is also located on the top floor. The beach level has a large bedroom and full bath along with a large family room with a kitchenette area. Two sets of sliding glass doors lead to the 34' x 25' huge deck partly covered with an open area to entertain and enjoy!

Vacationing in Miramar Beach is like taking a stroll down memory lane through the beach towns of your childhood. This South Walton neighborhood brings back the feel of those classic coastal enclaves with its scenic beach roads, surf shops, fabulous restaurants, beachfront homes and beachside resorts and condos on Miramar Beach with panoramic views of the Gulf of Mexico. But don't let the nostalgic beach vibe of Miramar Beach fool you. It also has ultra-modern amenities and activities that are ideal for family fun. Spend the day enjoying jet ski rentals, parasailing, and endless shopping opportunities at one of the nation's largest designer outlet centers, Silver Sands Premium Outlets.

Great vacation house!
Loved the space. We had 9 family members staying including a toddler, baby gates available to block stairs. House located close to the beach, the space at beach was nice. Furniture in living room could be upgraded. Two comfortable chairs but one chair had unstable legs.

Amazing!!!
It was a dream staying right on the water! It was large enough to accommodate the family and we didn’t have to be on top of one another! We called once for maintenance and they were very quick to respond and send someone! Overall a great place to stay!!

Construction
Property itself was in a great spot but cleanliness wasn’t great. Our overall problem was the construction that was not listed right outside our window. You could not open the doors and listen to the ocean or even go down to the beach. It is a large hotel type property they are renovating and the tv , the shower nothing drowns it out and they start at 7 am and go until at least 4pm. This was our 16 th wedding anniversary and this certainly ruined it.

October Vacation
Great location, a 5 minute walk from 2 restaurants. Plenty of room to spread out. Beautiful place, we enjoyed our stay. Well stocked kitchen-(needs a new can opener, it was broken but were able to make it work). Property manager was very prompt and attentive. Plenty of beach towels and chairs provided. FYI- There are no black out curtains upstairs, so the light does come in early and the front beach facing room gets hot from the afternoon sun. Basement has blackout curtains.

Friends with kids
The communication with the company running this property was very poor. My questions went unanswered. The location of the house and the beach were beautiful. We had ample room for our large group. The walkout to the beach was amazing. We spent all of our days and nights in the soft white sand. The patio furniture was very lacking. We had a group of adults and kids and there was nowhere on the lower level (which is where the grill is) for us to sit and hang out while we grilled other than a couple lounge chairs. The upstairs deck had limited seating as it appears most of the chairs were broken/missing. It’s a beautiful home with a lot of potential. A few updates and new patio furniture would go a long way.

Perfect family vacation!
We brought our family together at this property and couldn’t be more pleased with the location. It was amazing to be on the white sand beaches of Destin! The home was exactly as described, perfect for the younger kids and us older adults. They had extra toys for the kids and chairs for everyone. We didn’t want to leave and hope to go back in the future!

Outstanding Girls Getaway
We chose this property for our annual girls getaway and we couldn’t have been happier with our choice! The house was exactly as described, furnished very comfortably with lots of extras. Access to the gorgeous private beach was soooo convenient and overall location of the property was perfect! Will definitely stay here again!
