Ariel Dunes offers 24 stories of amazing views that span the sugar white sands and emerald green water of the coastline. The building is angled slightly to the west, and the sunsets are incredible! From the rear of the building, you get a bird's eye view of the lush Seascape Golf Course, and the sparkling Choctawhatchee Bay.

Seascape Resort encompasses over 3 hundred acres of lush greens, serene lakes and 2000 feet of pristine white sand beach. Soak in the views of the gulf without all the traffic noise. Ariel Dunes I is set back into the resort, and is a quieter alternative, giving you a break from seasonal traffic noise but close enough for you to drink in the sights and sounds of Destin's famous beaches. Take a relaxing stroll to the beach and feel your cares melt away!

Ariel Dunes I offers a state of the art fitness center, along with a 12,000sf pool featuring a zero entry, with a spacious deck for lounging and catching some rays before hitting the beach. Kids will love splashing around in the mushroom fountain!

The spectacular resort amenities include 2000 linear feet of easily accessible beach with chair and umbrella rentals, on-site golf, on-site pools (two are seasonally heated), tennis, watersport rentals, bike rentals and several restaurants, including the famous Whales' Tail, which features live bands.

Check out Seascape Towne Center located within the Seascape Resort! Featuring shopping, dining, and entertainment, this is a 55,000sf lakeside development designed for the whole family. Your kids will love the outdoor adventure park including a ropes course, you’ll love the unique dining, nightlife and live music venues. With the large events plaza and arcade with laser tag, there’s really no need to step off the resort once you arrive!

Area Attractions: 

Ariel Dunes is located close to the Silver Sands Factory Outlet, the nation’s large designer factory outlet featuring more than 100 name brand designer stores. Also close by is the Destin Commons with incredible eateries, upscale shopping, a park with pop up fountains at its center, and favorites like Bass Pro Shops and Hard Rock Cafe.

Grand Boulevard Town Center is a pedestrian-friendly, shopping and dining complex just off Emerald Coast Parkway, convenient to both SanDestin and Miramar Beach. For the high-end shopper, the center offers everything from Fusion Art Glass Gallery to Brooks Brothers Country Club. A number of boutiques, such as Hello, Sunshine and Magnolia House, carry fare you can't find anywhere else. Dining options include Mitchell's Fish Market, P. F. Chang's China Bistro, and Cantina Laredo Gourmet Mexican Food. In 2013, Walton County’s first movie theater opened at Grand Boulevard’s Town Center – the state-of-the-art Boulevard 10 Movie Theater.

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!

We loved Ariel Dunes I! The place was nice and clean plenty of space for my family and I to relax. The view from the balcony was amazing, we spend a lot of time sitting out there. If you like the pool life you will definitely love it here, they are huge. I love how close Ariel Dunes is from the beach. Will definitely go back.

Lovely stay!

The property was spotless, the furniture and beds were very comfortable, and the views are amazing throughout - we didn't want to leave! Location is amazing, on-site restaurant was delish. Nearby grocery, onsite pools and beach access were extremely convenient. Highly recommend the royal palm margarita + sunset at the Beach Bar across the street.

We visited Destin for my girlfriend's birthday, and it didn't disappoint. This condo was in a great location close to everything, and having a washer and dryer doesn't hurt one bit! We will stay at this property again without a doubt.

Aerial Dunes 1

The property was nice and the location was good, just a very short walk to the beach with good views. However, I don’t feel that the condo we stayed in was cleaned very well. The rugs in the master bathroom looked like they haven’t ever been cleaned. The floor may have been vacuumed, but I’m not sure if it was mopped. The other thing was the lack of anything in the condo. There were no cleaning supplies, no spices, no trash bags, no zip locks, no coffee filters for the coffee maker, one extra roll of toilet paper for two bathrooms, one roll of paper towels. I understand this may be due to COVID, but this should have been expressed so that we would have know to bring all of these things with us. Overall, the stay was good but I think I will find somewhere else to stay next time.
