About this property

Beach Friends Forever Destin, right across from the beach, with Pickleball!

Located in the desirable Ciboney Condominiums, just steps from sugar-sand beaches and emerald green water, this sophisticated 3-bedroom, 2 bath condo, is in a prime location for enjoying the best of what iconic Destin has to offer. With bright and open living spaces, it is perfect for family and friends to gather and entertain when not out enjoying this true gem of Emerald Coast. We even have a Pickleball court! It will become your Beach Friend Forever in Destin!

In whichever direction you go from Ciboney, you are close to the renowned restaurants, shopping and famed watering holes of Scenic Gulf Drive and the Emerald Coast Parkway. Because of Destin's fishing roots, many local seafood joints have stood the test of time. Just out your front door to the right, less than a 5-minute walk, is Pompano Joe’s, just one of those famous local fish houses and bars. There is no better way to eat seafood or enjoy a refreshing drink, than right on the beach. Need some extra beachwear, gear, or souvenirs, just out your front door to the left is Alvin’s Island. The premier place for all your needs on the Emerald Coast. If you're looking to shop, Destin has you covered! From outlets to high-end jewelry stores, boutiques and craft shops, and everything in between. The Silver Sands Premium Outlet is just 2 miles away. Up and down Scenic Gulf Drive and the Emerald Coast parkway is every type of cuisine and shopping opportunity you can imagine.

Beach Friends Forever’s open floor plan allows you to be together in a relaxing and comfortable environment. The kitchen can be your focal point as it has everything you need to make gourmet meals that would rival any restaurant in Destin. BFF provides you with an electric stove top and oven, plenty of granite countertops, and stainless-steel appliances that can transform you into a master chef. When relaxing means simple and all you need is a quick snack and beverage, this kitchen provides that with ease.

The separate dining and living areas allow for all the relaxing or entertaining you desire. The large flat-screen TV is visible throughout so no one will miss the last play of the game or scene of a movie. You are on the Emerald Coast, so head out to the balcony to feel the ocean breeze, enjoy the sunset and perhaps an after-dinner drink. Yes, that sound you hear, as you look to your left, that is the emerald green waters of the Gulf of Mexico. Start your day from here, with a nice cup of coffee or hot tea, as the sun rises, the sounds of the gulf will put you in the right frame of mind for your beach vacation.

Beach Friends Forever extends its luxury and sophistication to the 3 bedrooms. Sleep comfortably in any of the rooms after a long and exhausting day at the beach, shopping or just needing to continue your relaxing visit. The master bedroom has its own, ensuite, full bathroom with large walk in shower. The second bedroom has a lovely queen with a full bathroom. The bunk room is a perfect and cozy space for kids. While maybe not places you will spend much time in, when you do, you will do so in style and comfort.

Destin is home to magnificent white-sugar sand beaches that make visiting here unforgettable! The powdery grains of sand make a distinctive "squeak" noise as you walk through to find your ideal spot. From that spot, wade in to the crystal clear waters. You can hear the waves. You can see the emerald green water from the balcony. You are ready to head to the beach. It couldn’t be any easier to get there from BFF. Directly across the street is the gate to the private beach access for the guests of Ciboney. Through the gate you walk straight down to the beach you have heard so much about. Want to add a little excitement to the beach? Jet-ski, parasailing and paddle board rentals are all located on the beach, in front of Pompano Joe's.

Kids want some pool time? Head down to the Ciboney pool where you can continue to enjoy the Florida sun without the sand. The pool is heated in the winter and early spring months. Why mess up the kitchen when you can cook under the Florida sky at our outdoor grills. Tennis or Pickleball anyone? Enjoy the courts for a friendly match or just a little exercise.

Once you’ve become acquainted with your Beach Friends Forever Destin, you get to decide how often you'll be back. One thing is certain... you will be back!

Short getaway

We really enjoyed our stay. The owner was very responsive and helpful. The condo was just as pictured and comfortable. The umbrellas and beach chairs helped make our beach days comfortable too. Location was great! We walked down the beach to Pompano Joes for lunch one day. Beach was never crowded. Great experience all around

All the way from Texas 🎀

We had the pleasure of staying at this beautiful place . It was very well kept. Pictures don’t do justice. They have everything you need in the kitchen from big- small pots and pans can opener was a plus and beach chairs small cooler was nice . Didn’t have to go out our way to rent beach chairs or umbrella. If I had to describe this place I would say CLEAN, PEACEFUL, and GREAT LOCATION. You are very close to the beach and great restaurants. The walking distance not even 2min walk beach .You can rent the carts on the outside of the neighborhood. The street is clean and quiet and inviting. There’s a beach store next door as well as a icecream shop. Not even 5 min walk is pompano joes. The place it self is beautiful. The master bath set up is just great! The art work through out the house is relaxing and matches the house well. The balcony is comfortable and a great place to hang out and have your morning coffee. We look forward to staying here again in the future. I ask that people please take care of this place so everyone can continue to stay here.

Chilly But Sunny & Fun

The weather was mostly below the average temperatures, but we still had sunshine & plenty to do. My husband fished, we ate on the balcony a couple of times, visited the Gulfarium on Senior Day, traveled past Ft. Walton for several miles to a great little Zoo, dined out with friends, walked the beach, and so many more things. The view of the Gulf from the balcony was nice, the kitchen was well equipped and I really appreciated having a washer & dryer in the condo.

Family Vaca

Very nice condo, we were just surprised at the small size of the third room. Owners were very easy to communicate with when we had questions. Easy walk to the beach, which we all loved, just disappointed we couldn’t use our own canopy in the area designated for the condo. Overall, we all enjoyed our vacation. The accommodations were very nice, the beach was relaxing and the easy access to restaurants/shopping/attractions very convenient.
