About this property

Clean, comfy, casual. Beautiful Sandestin views. Golf cart w/ signed agreement

***Should Vrbo not provide it, contact Greg Hull to receive/review the golf cart agreement. Booking this condo infers your approval of the Golf Cart Agreement.***

As one recent guest said, "This charming condo has to be the best vacation value on Sandestin Resort." Top 1% in value. Late 2023- early 2024 front/back deck rebuild & bath update - everything's fresh, clean & cozy.

Why do guests love Rising Joy at Sandestin Resort? They find it’s the perfect combination of a clean/comfy/casual condo, driving the golf cart everywhere on the resort, private Harbour Point pool, beautiful views, sugar white beaches, recreation incl. three great golf courses, relaxation, shopping, entertainment and the Gulf Coast’s very best dining within minutes. Create your own perfect beach vacation.

***Not familiar with the resort? See the last few paragraphs for details***

Located among our quiet neighbors in Bayside's Harbour Point community (absolutely NO HOUSE PARTIES; at least one 25+ year old adult must be staying), Rising Joy is comfortably decorated with new furniture (sofa bed and loveseat), paint, accessories, bed & bath linens, new mattress, a newly appointed kitchen, and even new windows for outstanding Bayside views. Everything feels fresh, clean & cozy. The condo provides CAREFREE CHECK-IN via our convenient electronic door locks...so, there's absolutely no long check-in process thru a property manager's office.

While you relax on the back deck, enjoy your amazing views of Choctawhatchee Bay, Sandestin Marina and Baytowne Wharf. In the lake just off the deck, turtles paddle up, hoping that you will toss them a saltine cracker. Watch golfers play #14 Links. Walk to the private pool just steps away.

Oh, the included golf cart...you're about 5 or 6 minutes away from everything on the resort (including Publix Market @ Grand Boulevard)! Explore Beachside, Bayside, Lakeside and the Village at Baytowne Wharf as you leisurely drive past picturesque lakes (yes you may fish our lakes...catch & release, of course), and through beautiful neighborhoods. Best advice - jump in the cart and explore all of the resort.

Cruise Beachside through the convenient underground tunnel to Sandestin's sugar white beaches, dining, and in season, Tiki Bar, beach combing, parasailing, Wave Runners, a basketball court and miniature golf..

Bayside, hit 'em straight at one of Sandestin's golf courses (*see more info below). Chill out at Harbour Point's private pool or the SOA's two other pools (heated in season) - the new 2025 pool on Audubon Drive; or the 2023 Aquatic Center pool at the corner of Baytowne Village Drive and Baytowne Ave.

Bayside at the Marina, you'll find Sandestin's world-class tennis facility; bicycle, Waverunner, paddle boat & kayak rentals, and a Tree House for the kids. Want to feel like a local?...Grab a drink and a meal Marina Bar & Grill.

When you’re ready to experience the shopping and dining at Grand Boulevard and the Village of Baytowne Wharf, it’s all a quick golf cart trip away. http://www.sandestin.com/dining.

Inside the condo, maybe stretch out for a nap on the comfy sofa (it's also a queen-size sleeper) or on the Master BR king-size bed; find a favorite television program in the LR or BR; get everyone together and have movie night on the 50" flat screen TV.

Great for small families!

Greg’s place was excellent for our small family of three. From the beginning he was very communicative and we felt that he genuinely cared about us having a great stay. The condo was well stocked with everything we needed.The place was spotless, and the bedroom was spacious enough for a pack-n-play. The golf cart was an added bonus! Beach access was easy and not overly crowded. We also enjoyed the new heated pool at the resort. If you’re looking for a vacation near the beach and enjoy the 30A area, this is your spot! Much more affordable and less crowded. We would love to return and stay at Greg’s place again in the future!

Comfy Condo with Beautiful Bay View

We loved the comfort of this condo - felt like home instantly. The sunrise view is breathtaking & location is especially convenient to the Links Golf Course & the Fitness Center. With the condo's golf cart, the abundant Sandestin amenities are easily accessible to enjoy. The kitchen was very well-stocked to cook in. The condo owner was super accessible and always very kind & professional. We will look forward to returning in the future.

This condo was comfortable, well appointed within an amazing resort complex! Amenities beyond our expectations, loved using the golf cart to access beach, pool, restaurants and shopping! Greg, the host was easy to communicate with, responsive and helpful. If your vacay goal is to chill and read on the deck, you may want to keep looking as this deck is quite small and shaded.

Perfect Stay

We had the perfect stay at Gregg’s Harbor Pointe place. The condo was so nice, location was perfect and it was equipped with everything we needed to be at home away from home. Obviously, the golf cart was a huge plus. Greg answered questions very promptly and helped us with whatever we needed and even offered suggestions. Leading up to this day, Greg made it possible for an E bike to be delivered in my name to his place so that I could enjoy it on vacation. We really appreciate Greg going above and beyond for us this year as I am coming off of surgery. We watched fireworks on Tuesday night and storms roll in each evening from the balcony. We experienced all types of wildlife in the bay from a manatee to a stingray to even catching a speckled trout, redfish and trapping enough crabs to have a crab boil on the last night. We even experienced a pod of dolphins coming in and slapping their tails on the water to catch fish right by the dock. It was amazing! We have 9 and 11 year old boys and it was just the perfect week of adventure and relaxation. We are grateful for the time that we had at this place!

For Those Who Want the Beach and More

The condo was exactly as advertised and the location is ideal for active couples or small families that may want to do more than enjoy the beautiful beach (although that's just an easy golf cart ride away). Our family enjoyed the bay and golf course views, Baytown Wharf, fishing at the resort, tooling around in the golf cart, and swimming at the pools. The beach is soft, white sand, clear water.

Solid decision

Made a last minute decision to visit Florida and tried something different. We always stay directly on the beach. We decided to try bay side with a golf and marina view. There were so many options but reviews and the prompt attention won us over. Along with the option for golf cart. We parked our vehicle and got around in cart for everything. Easy access to beach and Baytowne Wharf and many places to eat . Everyone in the area were very friendly and shared how to get around with directions. Greg was so easy to contact and answered any questions we had. Condo was clean and comfortable and the views of the bay were awesome day and night. Bonus was sitting at pool and watching golfers tee off on hole 14. We will be back!

About the host

Hosted by Greg Hull

Host profile image
My passion is providing great vacation experiences for my guests (and for my family and friends).

I love Sandestin Resort. Having stayed as a guest 150+ times over 30 years, for both business and pleasure, I finally purchased Rising Joy condo as my "home away from home". It is a pleasure to share the condo and resort with you.

Why they chose this property

Great vacation value; fresh & clean with focused Covid protocol; comfy, casual decor & furnishings; first floor convenience; beautiful views. So much to do right on the resort with easy access to Sandestin Beach, the Marina, Baytowne Wharf, Grand Blvd., all via the golf cart. Seriously, you may not leave the property once you arrive.

What makes this property unique

Wildlife (feed the ducks and turtles in our lake just off the deck). 2022 updated EZGO golf cart seats, tires, quick charging/30-cruising miles with the new lithium battery; fresh bath & BR linens; ultra-comfy Sealy Posturepedic Caversham Euro Top Mattress.
