An easy walk along the beach will take you to the jetties, where the Gulf of Mexico and Destin Harbor meet, a spot well-known for great snorkeling and fishing. Here you can also watch boats going out deep sea fishing and returning from the gulf to the harbor. 

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.

Gone Gulfin’
Clean updated 2 bedroom condo with great view of the gulf from the 5th floor. Gated community with fairly easy walk to the beach. Several pools with clean bathrooms- all with hot tubs. Easy access by car to shopping, groceries and Destin Harbor. Not much to dislike for the price.

Gone Gulfin’ - 508 Magnolia Manor - is a nice condo with a prime location in the complex and a fantastic view!! A few minor fixups are needed ( sliding glass door handle and dryer lint vent ) but nothing which hampered our stay. My only complaint is the 10 o’clock checkout - especially at this time of year when a Sunday checkin is highly unlikely. The bottle of wine waiting on the counter was a nice touch though!! Will definitely rent again!

Hubby Birthday trip!
The view, access to pool, master suite/bathroom, washer and dryer, The recliner by the balcony, The balcony and Lanai. Conveniently located near everything. This is the only thing I could think of..but the fan in the master bedroom, the little shells on the end of the cords clank all throughout the night...lol...oh and the tub was dirty it had a ring around it, so I didn't use it. But its a beautiful part of the bathroom decor.

The condo was clean and peaceful upon arrival. The view to the ocean was beautiful. It’s a great location to O’Steen beach, which is the perfect spot for young kids as the water is calm. We would definitely stay here again!

The view was amazing to wake up to. Nothing really other than the mattress for the pullout was not usable to sleep on.

Unit 510 is absolutely beautiful. The whole condo is comfortable and well appointed. And the views from the front and back balcony are gorgeous. The neighborhood is quiet, safe, and relaxing. The tram service to go to and from the beach is perfect after a long day, but it’s also a very quick walk to the beach along a beautiful boardwalk. I will definitely be returning to this unit.

Really enjoyed the beautiful, modern decor. Absolutely amazing view!
Ease of checking in with the digital keypad. Loved the tram service provided! The elevator wasn’t working on the ground floor. So we had to use it from the first floor up. We almost got stuck on it as well.
