The resort sits directly on the Gulf Coast shoreline with no roads to cross - elevators provide direct access to the beach and pools. Destin city center, Harborwalk Village, and the Destin History and Fishing Museum are within 2 km. Big Kahuna's Water & Adventure Park is across the street. For airport access, Destin-Fort Walton Beach Airport (VPS) is 27 km away (about 30 minutes), while Pensacola International (PNS) is 80 km away (about 90 minutes). Free private parking is available on-site without reservation, and two paid J1772 EV chargers are located on the property. Nearby dining and shopping are walkable: Lone Wolf Pizza is next block, and Target, Walgreens, and McDonald's are about 2 km away.

Accommodation

One- and two-bedroom condos, each sleeping 6, with ocean-view balconies, full kitchens, and 2 bathrooms.
The resort offers 339 individually owned condos across 19 floors. One-bedroom units (873 sqft) have a king bed, hallway bunk beds, and a queen sofa bed; they sit at the front of the building with direct ocean views. Two-bedroom units (955 sqft) have a king bed in the master, a queen or king in the guest room, a queen sofa bed, and an angled balcony with ocean and pool views. All units include a full kitchen (stainless appliances, dishwasher, microwave, stove, oven, coffee maker, blender, toaster), 2 bathrooms, air conditioning, heating, free Wi-Fi, and Cox HD Cable on Smart TVs. Each condo provides 2 beach chairs, an umbrella, and a cooler. Two-bedroom condos have an in-unit washer/dryer; one-bedroom units have coin-operated laundry on each floor.

Dining

No on-site restaurant, but a seasonal Tiki bar, cafe, deli, and gas grills are available from March to November.
The beachside Tiki bar serves cocktails, drinks, and food to a seating area during its seasonal operation (March-November). A seasonal deli and cafe offer light meals and a convenience store. Outdoor gas grills with a seating area are available for guest use. Vending machines on the lobby level provide snacks and soft drinks. There is no permanent restaurant, so guests with full kitchens often prepare meals. Nearby dining includes Lone Wolf Pizza (next block), Crackings Café (across the street for breakfast), and AJ's at Harborwalk Village for seafood with a view.

Leisure

Heated indoor and outdoor pools, 2 hot tubs, a kiddie pool, fitness center, sauna, steam room, and tennis courts.
The resort features 3 outdoor pools and 1 indoor swim-out pool, all heated and open year-round. A fenced kiddie pool provides safe play for toddlers. Two hot tubs are available.

Top Strategic Tips

  • 01

    Book a 1-bedroom condo for a direct oceanfront view and full balcony exposure; 2-bedroom units are side-facing with a 45-degree angle.

  • 02

    Use the free beach chairs, umbrella, and cooler provided in your unit, but note they can only be set up behind the paid rental rows.

  • 03

    Plan around seasonal closures: the Tiki bar, cafe, and deli operate only from March to November.

  • 04

    Arrive via Destin-Fort Walton Beach Airport (VPS, 27 km, ~30 minutes) for the shortest drive.
