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!

Fun with the family.

Everything was nice and clean. The views were beautiful! We loved that the pool had a gradual slope at one end. We were just under the impression that we were on the beach, not across the street.

Multi-generation beach getaway

Enjoyed the views! Amenities were awesome and well thought out. Thankful for beach cart and misc toys, chairs, etc. Loved the convenience of getting food at the restaurant downstairs without having to leave the property. Room and spaces for our 3 different age groups all in the unit. Thanks and looking forward to our return!

Exceeding expectations

This property was exactly as pictured. In fact, we were surprised at how well-stocked it was with kitchen appliances, including a slow cooker, cutting boards, and cooling rack. The unit was very clean and there were several games and activities, as well as chairs, tubes, boogie boards, and other fun items for the beach. The beach was a short and easy walk from the unit, even with four kids ranging from 3 to 10 and all the beach gear that kids "require." The pool was also very nice, and there are plenty of luggage carts and grocery carts by the elevators to make arrival and departure easy I would recommend to anyone, and I would absolutely stay again.

Friends Reunion

Our stay at this location was perfect. The weather was perfect, but even if it hadnt been it would have been perfect to hang out. The decor was more beautiful in person than in the listing. Kitchen was wonderfully stocked. Beds were heavenly....except the twins...was a little on the firm side. Great location for food. Beach/Gulfview from Balcony and literally steps from the beach! Just wonderful! THANK YOU!!!

Loved our stay here!

The condo was overall very clean (just a little sandy - even the sheets when we got there). The kitchen supplies met all of our needs. Our kids enjoyed the board games. There's a beautiful view of the beach from the patio and one of the bedrooms. The convenience of the beach toys and cart was nice. The walk to the beach is short. There are several restaurants nearby. We LOVED the pool - it really entertained all ages from toddlers to adults. Would definitely recommend staying here!

The location is great with amazing views out the balcony. The condo was clean, beautifully decorated and the kitchen was well stocked with everything you would need. We really appreciated the beach chairs and umbrella and beach cart to enjoy down at the beach. So many great little shops and restaurants nearby. The cabana cafe on the property was a great spot for a night cap, live music pizza and ice cream. Our family had a wonderful time! Thank you!

My review

We needed 3 bedrooms, one with bunk bed a little small, might need to replace coffee maker, we bought some filters and even like that we had coffee grounds in it, it takes a long time to make coffee.

Comfort in Quarantine

Our stay at Ariel Dunes was very impressive.. I will admit that given the current situation we were a little weary to stay in a high rise with the possibility of Covid exposure but this location handled cleanliness very well and everyone on site was very respectful of social distancing and best practices when it came to common areas (ie elevators, pools). Our rental was very well kept and had everything we needed and more. We had a total of 8 - four adults and four kids (14-11 years old) and we never felt as if we were crammed into a space too small for us. Kitchen was well stocked; full size fridge and working ice machine was a plus. The kids did state that a small fan for the bunk room would've been helpful; as a ceiling fan maybe tough given the size of the room. The balcony was a great space for meals, morning exercise and evening drinks to unwind. We were definitely impressed by the beach equipment in the bin on the balcony it was a great help! The guest book was a very unique touch and happy to say we left our words of appreciation to the owners there as well. We would highly recommend staying at this property.

Great condo for a family vacation!

If you can't be right on the beach, this is the next best thing. The condo was clean, fully stocked, and a lovely place for our family getaway. We had our 5 kids plus a friend for a total of 8. The pools were great, I loved the view, and it was so close to the beach! We enjoyed walking to so many local places the beach was beautiful. BIG bonuses were full sized washer and dryer and fully stocked kitchen. Thanks for a great rental, we would love to stay there again.

Nice place, 2 block walk to beach

Not a fan of the late check in time and early check out time. We pretty much lost a full day of our already-short vacation. The condo is nice. Beds are comfortable and the master bath is large. The extra chairs and beach wagon were handy. It was a longer walk to the beach than I expected—past the pool, two roads, and two other buildings. I was surprised to find NO coffee (or coffee condiments), no laundry detergent, no dishwasher detergent... I’ve rented several condos before and usually there is a little something extra on hand (probably left over from previous guests). Our ice maker did not work and although they weren’t able to get it fixed during our stay they did send someone with two bags of ice within a few hours of calling. He was super nice.
