About this property
Steps from the Beach and Pool - Destiny by the Sea
Introducing "Destiny Awaits", our newly listed vacation home in the most prestigious gated community in Destin, FL, Destiny by the Sea. This home is directly across from the gated communities private pool and hot tub, and steps from the sugary white sand and turquoise waters Destin is famous for. The home is massive at 3900+ sq. ft., with 3 stories, featuring 5 bedrooms, and 5.5 baths. Every bedroom has its own private bath, and flat screen tv. Community is perfect for families!
The best part about this home is the private beach, and it is literally steps away from the house! We include all sorts of beach toys (paddleboard, frisbees, footballs, sandcastle toys, cornhold boards, boogie boards) and plenty of chairs for you to use at the beach. We setup the house to where all you need to bring is what you plan to eat/drink and wear, and the rest is taken care of! Our location is also walking distance to multiple restaurants, and great shopping within 5 min!
