About this property

Magnolia Bay Townhome at Sandestin ~ Private Beach Access ~ 4 seat Golf Cart

Magnolia Bay is a perfect resort location for those wishing to be surrounded by vibrant greenery with views of the golf course and lake, yet walk to the marina, tennis courts, or the Village of Baytowne Wharf™ for restaurants, shopping, and entertainment!
8616 Magnolia Bay Lane is in the heart of Sandestin® Golf and Beach Resort and is only minutes from a vast array of outdoor activities.  

Our spacious and modern two-story 3 Bedroom Villa is larger than most Magnolia Bay properties and sleeps 6 with two king suites, a comfortable queen guest room, 3.5 bathrooms, and includes a 2-car garage and golf cart.

Relax and settle into the open living area, great for entertaining and enjoying the back patio views of Baytowne Golf Course and beyond. Catch the Baytowne fireworks display from the comfort of your own porch! The sparkling clean kitchen boasts beautiful granite countertops and stainless steel appliances and is fully equipped for preparing meals to be enjoyed at the dining table which seats 6. Soaring ceilings, plenty of storage areas, and rich travertine flooring will take your resort vacation to another level!

The luxurious owner's suite located on the first floor includes a king bed, a large flat-screen TV, black-out drapes, and a private en suite bath with double vanity and a large shower. There is also a convenient powder room and washer/dryer set on the first floor. Move upstairs and you will find the second king suite – an elegant bedroom with TV and en suite bath with tub and separate shower, along with double vanity and huge walk-in closet. The second-floor queen suite features a queen bed, and flat-screen TV, and also includes a large private full bath with tub. A washer and dryer set is also located on the second floor for added convenience.

A private two-car garage secures your vehicles and the golf cart, and your front door is accessed by a combination lock, which is provided before arrival. The community pool is just a few steps from your front door.  You will be in the middle of quiet pristine nature, yet conveniently just a quick golf cart ride to anywhere within the resort in just minutes!

From your doorstep take advantage of all that the resort has to offer!  Use the property’s complimentary 4-passenger golf cart to explore every part of the resort or make use of the resort’s miles of dedicated bike paths. Using either mode of transportation, you could be watching the boats at Baytowne Marina, shopping or dining at the Village of Baytowne Wharf™, or swimming in the Gulf of Mexico in minutes. Don’t forget unique stops like Jolee Island which offers a quaint nature walk and picnic spot.  If you'd rather spend your day between the beach and pool - just know that seasonal, nightly entertainment is offered each night at The Village of Baytowne Wharf™ - fireworks, live music, outdoor movies, festivals, and much, much more. Don't miss this opportunity for a vacation in a world-class resort with access to endless fun, stunning views, luxurious comforts, and memories for a lifetime!

Overall a nice home.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall the home was well maintained other than the washing machines. The primary suite washing machine had a horrible smell to it and appears to not have been cleaned out in quite some time. We took a towel and wiped out a lot of dark colored dirt from inside the door. Even with bleaching out the machine the odor remained and it even transferred to our clothes. I would not offer the washing machine as an amenity unless someone keeps it clean. I have a video if you’d like. The only other issue was the painters doing work on the house. Not a problem, but we did not know they were going to be there for 3 of our vacation days. They taped up over the door and we had to move the vehicles a few times for them to clean the driveway and garage doors. They also had clear view into the home upstairs through the windows which made getting dressed in the bedroom impossible.

Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. Fantastic central location to all the amenities. Pool is located just across the street and is beautiful. The home is very comfortable and has large windows across the back which provide a beautiful view of the golf course. The kitchen is stocked with everything you need and more. I’ve stayed in many rentals and this kitchen was by far stocked the best. Arrival and departure process is very easy. I’d give it a 10/10. Will be back next year!

Wonderful Stay!!!

My husband I truly enjoyed this property. We stayed for Christmas, and we could not have rented a better place. It was clean, comfortable and stylish. It was large, we only used the downstairs with the master bedroom, but the upstairs was very nice as well. Golf cart was great, very peppy, battery runs down fairly fast, but we were always ok. Would recommend this property to everyone.

The house has a great location to the swimming pool, dining facilities, and entertainment. The golf cart is an added bonus for transportation to the beach as well as touring the various communities at the resort. We had a great vacation and would recommend this property to others!

Destin Fl area visit

The house was actually in the Sandestin Beach and Golf Resort -- a few miles east of Destin Harbor. Very nice property - right next to the 8th hole. Quiet location and well managed. Owner provides golf cart which is all you need to get to the eating and beach areas within the resort. There was a couple of issues upon arrival -- fridge ice dispenser not working - filter needs replacement; patio ceiling fan didn't work; these were not resolved while we were there. The golf cart needed a brake/taillight replaced which was taken care of. The biggest issue was with the new A/C unit. It was extremely cold the first 24 hours and we could not get the thermostat to function. After contacting building management on the 2nd day, they advised the thermostat was left in a "lock out" setting -- renters could not change the thermostat settings. They un-locked it While there were these problems, it was a very good property, and the management was quick to respond to fix what they could.

Nice location

Close to marina, wharf, shopping, movies, grocery store, restaurants beach and pool. Golf cart is a nice feature. Pool code was given to me wrong twice, carpet was stained and dirty, and the whole being your own items (TP, paper towels, dishwasher/laundry supplies…) you can buy at the local grocery store.

Highly Recommend !!

This property was wonderful, everything described. Great location for enjoying everything that Sandestin offers. Everything is either a short walk or a golf cart ride away. House was clean and inviting when we arrived. 2 master bedrooms to choose from and It was nice to have the 3rd bedroom with its own full bath for visiting family and friends to stay the night. Sandestin itself is a great place to visit or stay. We were there a bit before their main season so there was a lot of construction projects happening everywhere but most everything was open for us to enjoy at the wharf. Numerous restaurants to discover and try throughout the property and a grocery store very close to get anything you may need to make your own meals. We are looking to book this property next year already.!!

Awesome Time!!!

The house has everything needed and is in a great location. Can't beat sitting on the porch in the morning drinking coffee and watching a little golf. Golf cart was perfect for going to the wharf, getting groceries at Publix and loading up to ride over to the beach. Plenty of beach accessories in the garage as well. Highly recommend.
