About this property

Your Dream Condo - Destination Destin

Whatever the occasion, a weekend getaway, a new WFH location, family vacation, girls’/guys trip, Destination Destin is the perfect retreat.

Drive up to an oceanfront resort with security on premise. Grab your parking pass and wrist bands, drop your luggage, and be prepared for some fun and rest and relaxation.

Start your vacation by entering a luxurious, spacious, and modern oasis. With a king in the primary, twins in the secondary and a queen-size pull-out couch, and two full bathrooms, this condo is for the whole crew to enjoy.

What’s next?

The first pool, hot tub and gym are just a floor below. 3 pools and private beach (yes, of course you can rent chairs and umbrellas), is just a 3-minute walk down a boardwalk away from cars.

Grill your dinner poolside. Our fully equipped kitchen, snack bar, and favorite grocery store across the street means you never have to leave the complex when you need to refuel.

Need a break from cooking? As foodies ourselves, our guests love our recommendations and map of our favorite nearby restaurants which you can easily walk to. Believe me, you are in for a treat! From seafood, to Italian, to Mexican, sushi, to fast food, to the best frozen custard you will ever eat, you can surely find places your whole group will love.

The next morning, start your day by sitting on the porch and sipping your coffee while listening to the fountain or getting a workout in the gym. The beach calls. Walk along Destin’s endless white sand beaches, grab a boogie board to enjoy the waves or build a sand castle with our closet full of beach toys. There is also The Big Kahuna Water Park across the street as well as its 54-hole miniature golf course.

We have a washer/dryer in the unit for easy beach and pool clean up.

Need a day out of the sun? Destin Commons is our favorite spot with upscale stores, a delicious food court, and a bowling alley.

We also come here for a mix of work and play. Enjoy high speed wifi and a huge work space.

Come check out Destination Destin!

Terrace

The dryer did not work and the owner forgot to tell us or ruined some of the babies clothes. They had showings during our stay. The sheet on the couch bed had urine and pink stuff on it. The twin bed floor was dirty

Had some issues but enjoyed our stay

The condo was accurate to the description in the posting. I wish we would’ve known about the beach, requiring us to set up our chairs behind the rentals chairs. There were three rows of rental chairs in front of us. During our stay, the fire alarm battery was low in the alarm sounded throughout the early morning. We also had an issue with the dryer during our stay. They charged us 250 and we were not a fault for either issue.

Overall is ok with exception of master bath issue

All amenities are well thought out and arranged for easy access. I like the property with one caveat that the master bath was clogging and could not use it. so, we have to stick with one bath only.

Family Friendly

Great condo for our family. We had everything we needed. We were close to the public beach which we used a couple times to setup our canopy and then we paid for a half day large umbrella to use the private beach at the resort. They did pick up several umbrellas around 4 so several people moved to the front once the private chairs were picked up. We had to try out every pool and they were all great! Really enjoyed our stay and this is the perfect place for families with kids. We walked to a couple of the restaurants and shops. Great location in Destin!

Fantastic!

Comfortable condo as depicted in online listing. I was able to contact property manager easily when we had questions at check in; appreciated her availability. Short walk to beach, outdoor swimming pools, and boogie boards/umbrella/portable chairs in the condo (for beach use) made our stay with a 3 year old ideal. We liked our accomodations so much we even extended our stay! Would book again!

Wonderful condo/location

Condo was very comfortable and clean and loved being on the second floor and in the building away from the ocean. Very easy to navigate the grounds and felt very safe. The highway outside of the grounds is busy, but it was easy to drive to different places. Ahh...that beach and ocean! Ellen was very accessible and prompt to answer any questions or concerns.

Great condo in Destin!

This condo is on the pelican Beach property with access to heated pools and hot tubs, and very short walk (<5 min) to the beach. This condo has all the amenities you need, quiet and safe. Food places easily deliver here, or grocery stores are adjacent! Owners were very helpful and you can tell they’re thoughtful with all the extras included in the condo- spare soap, spare beach toys, chairs, towels, and so on. Could not recommend more!

Wonderful stay and superb location!

Our family of 4 had a fantastic stay at this condo. It exceeded our expectations in every way. The host was very helpful in providing recommendations and ensuring we had a memorable vacation. The unit was very clean and included all of the necessary amenities (and more!) including beach chairs, beach toys, and a full set up of utensils and supplies for cooking. I highly recommend this Terrace building over the main building which was much noisier and more crowded. This unit allowed us to enjoy the extras at the main building within a very short walk but provided the quietness we were after. We appreciated that this unit did not have people in units below us (the pool and admin offices are below). Our children are well behaved but we didn’t have to worry as much. We did not hear noise from neighboring side units or the unit above us which was a HUGE plus. The view from the balcony was perfect. The beach has some of the softest and best sand and is well kept. The pools are heated and were all very enjoyable. Lastly, the location can’t be beat. There is a lot to do within walking distance or a very short drive. I honestly do not have anything negative to say. I hope we get the opportunity to visit this condo again. Don’t hesitate to book it and have the vacation of a lifetime!

Destin spring break

We really enjoyed staying at this condo. It was very well equipped for our family with two children to enjoy the beautiful beach on the property. The kitchen had all the supplies we needed, and there are also some beach supplies as well as some games and puzzles for the kids. Condo feels nice and updated. There are 3 pools at the main building and 1 at the Terrace, where the condo is, and they are all heated which was great for this time of year.

Great location!

The condo was just as described, and just a short distance to shops and restaurants. It is a little bit of a walk down to the beach, but not too bad. I’d recommend a wagon if you’re bringing a lot of stuff down with you. The bed in the master suite was a little on the firm side, but other than that the condo was great. Really clean and tastefully decorated. The property manager was very nice and glad to answer any questions I had. Would highly recommend staying here. We enjoyed our stay.

White sands + beautiful ocean waters + lovely condo = amazing vacation!

We had an amazing stay! The condo was very clean and beautifully decorated. It felt like home away from home! The beach was a short walk away (3-4 minutes) and that is where we spent the majority of our late mornings -afternoons. Collapsible beach chairs were in the 2nd bedroom, they came in handy! We highly recommend The Donut Hole for breakfast! Best donuts we’ve ever had and their breakfasts are amazing! We also ate at McGuire’s, Big Red Cafe, Margaritaville, World Of Beer, and Longhorn Steakhouse. (all were very good) We also enjoyed a nice sunset dolphin cruise on the Hannah Marie and saw many dolphins! Ellen was very good at getting back to us with any questions we may have had. We are already talking about coming back next year! We love Destin and our stay at your condo was wonderful! I highly recommend staying here and will recommend this place to my friends and family!

We had an amazing time in Destin. We were so happy we found your place & stayed there. Nothing like being comfortable while your away from home. The place was lovely, clean and new. We felt like we were in our own home. Ellen was so helpful & was always a text away. Thank you for having us. Will plan to visit Destin again & would love to stay here again.

Family trip

This was our first time going to Destin and I contemplated where to stay, not knowing the area. We loved staying at this condo! It was exactly like the pictures. Fully stocked kitchen and we used the grills a lot. We went in April and the restaurants got busy with all the spring break people (go early and plan accordingly). The balcony was a perfect size. It got a little noisy since you are directly above the pool but we had sound machines and it was fine! Communication from Ellen was so easy and quick! Staying at the Terrace building which is just behind the main Building was so nice- you never had to fight for a spot at the pool but you still had access to the other pools if you wanted. We tried all the pools and they were so fun for the kids! The walk to the beach was so easy and we had 3 small kids and still carried our chairs and umbrella. Plenty of beach space behind the people who paid for beach service which I thought was NOT worth $200. We felt totally comfortable leaving our stuff and dipping our toes in the water. There were 2 bag chairs in the closet and we purchased an umbrella at Costco and it worked out perfectly!! We’re already talking about coming next year :)) The only two recommendations we had were having beach towels and maybe a blackout curtain for the bedroom with twin beds. Otherwise everything was perfect and we’d easily come again!

About the host

Hosted by Gary and Ellen Mesnick

Host profile image
We had been to Destin numerous times mostly during spring break and we always love it. We're from Atlanta so being landlocked, we especially appreciate the white sand beaches. After living in California and Florida, it is something that we crave. Our building, the Terrace, is quiet and offers beautiful sunset views, the lake with its fountains lit up at night and fireworks seen from our balcony. Our housekeepers are amazing, keeping our condo spotless and smelling fresh. We enjoy sharing our oasis with numerous guests, welcoming them with cookies or popcorn, many of whom return every year.

Why they chose this property

This is the perfect neighborhood for families and anyone who loves our pristine white endless beach, our resort's numerous pools and jacuzzis, beautiful sunsets and walking to restaurants and shops. We are in the heart of Destin so everything is at your fingertips including the Big Kahuna Waterpark and 54-hole Mini-Golf Course directly across the street. Winn Dixie and Target are both a few blocks away for any shopping. The Locale Market offers mouthwatering Southern style breakfast; lunch at the condo, at the Pelican Beach care or tiki bar or for pizza or a salad or sandwich next door at Lone Wolf Pizza; and delicious seafood dinner down the street at the famous Back Porch, Mimmo Restaurante Italiano or Harbor Docks on the Bay. And don't forget to check out the Southern Star Dolphin Cruise or the Pirate Cruise. In the summer, join the largest beach party by catching a Crab Island Cruise. Finally, take a ride to Gulfarium, our terrific marine adventure park, to see dophins, otters, seals and so much more...

What makes this property unique

We have had numerous careers but are now a realtor, a designer and an e-commerce specialist. All three of us love this unit, with its beautiful views, updated kitchen and baths and lovely decor. Over the past several years that we have owned it, we have collected special art, dinner wear and linens, further enhancing its visual appeal. It is perfect for any group but we especially like kids so we supply lots of beach toys, ocean themed puzzles, books and magazines. We can't wait to share it with our family, friends and you! PS-We're big foodies so take us up on our restaurant suggestions and let us know if you find a new special place!
