Located on the second floor of the penthouse building, this is a 2 bedroom, 2 bath unit 23 with a king bed in the master bedroom and a walk in shower. 2 double beds in the second bedroom and a queen sleeper sofa in the living room. Step outside to the balcony to enjoy magnificent sunsets over the Gulf of Mexico. Listening to the sounds of the wave’s crash on the beach is the ideal way to end a perfect day in Destin. A Short 75 yard walk to beach through a manicured courtyard and you will be playing in the emerald green waters of the Gulf of Mexico! Centrally located to the pool, game room, coin laundry, and BBQ grills.

Tennis, Basketball, Pickleball, and Shuffleboard – Forget your gear? No worries, you can check out rackets, balls, and more at the front desk at no charge!
Grilling Out – In the busy months of spring and summer, many families opt to grill out rather than go out. We have eight charcoal grills available. There are several seafood markets nearby, including Blalock’s which is just a block to the west (p.s., their tuna dip is a must try!).

• Movies in the Courtyard – Bring a picnic blanket, your beach chairs, and join us on Mondays at dusk throughout June and July. We show a different family-friendly movie each week.
• S’mores Nights with Live Music at the Pool –Wednesday nights are awesome at Silver Dunes! Throughout June and July, the firepits will be out, s’mores roasting, and tunes playing!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Perfect spot for my wife and 2 kids. Conveniently located and steps to the ocean. The complex is not overly crowded so there is always room on the beach and at the pool. The laundry facilities were extremely helpful. The staff were great - especially the night security guard who was the most friendly security guard you'll ever meet. Seemed like daily events were put on by the staff but we were too busy to take part - it was a fun atmosphere but quiet when you wanted to go to sleep.

Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very dirty. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Took a week long family vacation to Destin. We like to go to different places every vacation and have stayed in some very nice condos in the past. Silver dunes was just OK was not our first choice but was the ono e I could get for a decent price on a short notice. It was not very clean we pulled out the sofa bed and it still had a fitted sheet on it that was stained. The pool could get a little crowded in the evening but was nice most of the time. The grassy area was nice so the kids could run and play even though we didn’t use it much. Best part was being right on the beach and having a private beach area with a small condo. Everyone loves the beach service but I find it to be pain since I have no need for their chairs all I get to look at is a bunch of blue umbrellas and chairs unless I want to pay a lot of money for someone to set it up for me in the morning.Over all it was a good time for the kids but I would not recommend staying here if you have another option.
