The complex is also just a few minutes drive from all Destin has to offer, including go-kart rentals, dolphin cruises, charter fishing, parasailing, Big Kahuna's Water Park, The Track Family Fun Center, and the Silver Sands Outlet Mall.

Several outstanding restaurants are within walking distance including 'The 790 Cafe' located at The Inn at Crystal Beach. Grand Caribbean West is also within walking distance of Destin's famous Crab Trap restaurant.

Close by is Destin Commons, a beautifully landscaped, pedestrian-friendly area and a great family venue where children will love to play in the interactive water fountains. Also for the younger guests, a nautically/pirate themed outdoor playground features a 1,750 square foot soft play area with various creatures from the sea, slides, and a treasure chest!  Destin Commons also has a mini-train for the kids. Destin Commons features over 75 shops and restaurants, including Godiva Chocolates, AMC Movie Theaters and Bass Pro Shop.

If you are near Miramar Beach, the snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Dolphin Reef, deployed in 2017.  Located just 685 feet straight out from the Miramar Regional Public Beach access (by Pompano Joe's), it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Dolphin Reef is at a depth of 12-20 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

The complex is great, it’s close to the beach, has plenty of parking and it’s located in a great area of Destin. The pool was crystal clear clean. It’s great to go to the beach and then jump in the pool. The condo was very relaxing and we had a great time. Highly recommended it

Location was great. 200 steps from the beach! Great patio with table and seating for 4 plus 2 chairs and side table for relaxing. The pool and hot tub were very nice. Extra picnic table with grills just off the patio. The grill deck was getting a bit soft and may need replacing soon. The setup of the condo was perfect for us! The tub/shower drained a bit slow and slightly backed up while showering. We will definitely be back to thus unit.
