Area Attractions:

Close by is Destin Commons, a beautifully landscaped, pedestrian-friendly area and a great family venue where children will love to play in the interactive water fountains. Also for the younger guests, a nautically/pirate themed outdoor playground features a 1,750 square foot soft play area with various creatures from the sea, slides, and a treasure chest!  Destin Commons also has a mini-train for the kids. Destin Commons features over 75 shops and restaurants, including Godiva Chocolates, AMC Movie Theaters and Bass Pro Shop. 

Nearby are 6 miles of paved trails - perfect for both walking or biking. Pretty, unspoiled, Henderson Beach State Park is also close by.  

If you are near Miramar Beach, the snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Dolphin Reef, deployed in 2017. Located just 685 feet straight out from the Miramar Regional Public Beach access (by Pompano Joe's), it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Dolphin Reef is at a depth of 12-20 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

Very clean upgraded modern 2 story condo. Lots of places for people to sleep. Had a couple issues while there but RealJoy the company who takes care of the condo, was very responsive in handling concerns. Thanks for a great stay.

Overall we enjoyed our visit in the room with two double beds. One of the mattresses needs replaced. Same room the outlets didn’t work on one wall. In the master bedroom we stripped beds before we left and there was what looked like a bloodstain on mattress pad The kitchen was great stocked with great pots and pans and dishes.wd would definitely stay again loved the area

Construction on the property started as we arrived, we were notified week before we arrived that it was going on. Property management said that beach chairs would be provided with a phone call, never got chairs, Mom is 82, hard to enjoy the beach. Ice maker didn’t work, had to buy and haul ice bags til middle of the week, could not use handycap parking due to construction, condo is nice tho......
