About this apartment rental

Hidden Dunes Penthouse 1700 Professionally Managed by Newman-Dailey

Condo 1700 has an extended view from the row of windows in the living room looking out to the Gulf of Mexico from this corner condo.

Located on the 17th floor of the exclusive Hidden Dunes Gulf and Racquet Resort, this luxurious 4-bedroom, 5-bath penthouse offers panoramic Gulf views and a thoughtfully curated vacation experience for families, couples, and groups. With exclusive deeded beach access and daily in-season beach service (including two chairs and 1 umbrella), this is the perfect destination for both relaxation and recreation.

Tucked away on the sugar-white sands of the Emerald Coast, Hidden Dunes Gulf and Racquet Resort is a gated beachfront community offering a peaceful retreat just minutes from Destin’s best shopping, dining, and attractions. Guests enjoy a Gulf-front pool and hot tub, professional tennis and pickleball courts, community gas and charcoal grills, and convenient bike racks—all within a beautifully landscaped setting. With a 24/7 guarded entrance and free early access to amenities on arrival day while you wait for check-in at 4pm, this hidden gem strikes the ideal balance of comfort, security, and convenience.

Designed for comfort and style, this expansive residence blends elevated coastal living with family-friendly features. Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the space with natural light, and the living room features a hidden TV lift to preserve the stunning view when not in use. The gourmet kitchen is a chef’s dream, complete with a coffee machine, Keurig, and bean grinder, plus everything needed for meal preparation. A custom wet bar with an ice maker and built-in ring wall game adds an element of fun to your stay.

Families will enjoy the Bonus Room with a 75" smart TV, four-player arcade game console like Golden Tee and Centipede, and a range of games perfect for all ages. Each bedroom is equipped with Roku TVs, USB charging ports, and ample storage. For little ones, two Pack ‘n Plays and a highchair are provided.

The spa-inspired primary bathroom features a rain shower, handheld wand, a bench, and a smart cut-out to warm the water before entering. All five bathrooms have been fully updated for a modern, spa-like experience.

Outside, the private balcony offers comfortable loungers for enjoying the Gulf breeze and unforgettable sunsets. Just steps away, explore nearby attractions including Baytowne Wharf, The Market Shops, and Bristrology. A short walk brings you to Silver Sands Premium Outlets with over 100 designer stores or enjoy a casual beachfront meal and drinks at The Beach House. Families will also appreciate the proximity to Big Kahuna’s Water Park, the Destin Harbor Boardwalk, and more.

Perfect for romantic getaways, family vacations, and seasonal escapes, Penthouse 1700 has earned rave reviews for its unique features, stunning views, and the ultimate blend of luxury, convenience, and tranquility.

Penthouse 1700 is part of the award-winning Hidden Dunes resort. Known for its tennis center, long stretch of deeded beach access, forested lodging and outdoor recreation areas, it also offers guests three pool decks and grilling areas, basketball court, kids play areas and fitness center. Behind its gates are acres of walking paths, lakes and fountains. However, this natural beauty is not also complimented by conveniences thanks to its proximity to two outdoor malls, myriads of restaurants and designer pro golf courses. Low or high tide, Gulfside 1700 will make your Destin beach stay go absolutely swimmingly.

Also tucked in the sought-after Hidden Dunes Gulf and Racquet Resort, this community features a professional Tennis and Pickleball Center with 6 Rubico clay tennis courts and 3 hard-surface pickleball courts. The Rubico clay courts, maintained daily for top playing conditions, meet the highest standard for clay surfaces. Proper tennis attire is required, and guests are encouraged to call ahead to schedule a match, join a clinic, or book private lessons. Equipment rentals and session costs are available upon inquiry. Guests also enjoy dedicated deeded beach access exclusive to Hidden Dunes, making it the perfect destination for both relaxation and recreation.

This house sleeps a maximum of 16 guests.

Guests also receive a welcome kit with small dishwasher detergent, dish soap, sponge, a roll of paper towels, and laundry detergent. There will be an initial trash liner in each receptacle and a set of toilet paper and soaps for each bathroom provided. Guests will need to replenish supplies for longer stays.

In addition to our welcome kit, we also supply basic cooking essentials like salt, pepper, and oil.

3 CAR MAXIMUM IN JUNE AND JULY. NO VISITOR GUEST PARKING AVAILABLE.

10 / 10Outstanding·Jan 2026
Unit was huge, plenty of space for everyone in our group (6 adults) with room to spare. The views from the balcony were incredible. It’s equipped with everything we needed. Everything was clean upon arrival. Location is great, beach is beautiful, and convenient to multiple shopping plazas with many restaurant options.

Beautiful place and great location. Disappointing that only 1 out of the 3 sliding doors worked properly. The only one that worked was off the master and was ver disruptive to the people staying in the master. Overall great stay.

My family and I stayed at the 1700 Penthouse over this past weekend. It had amazing views. We loved how the rooms were spread out and the decor was fitting. Only issue we cld fuss about wld be the elevator. Only one was working and it was quite aggy having to wait so long. Other than that we enjoyed our stay and won’t hesitate to rebook when that time comes!
