Please be aware that the building is currently undergoing construction. Occupants will experience some noise during business hours and see construction activity in the vicinity. For safety reasons the Splash Pad, indoor hot tub, and grill area is temporarily closed. The indoor pool is closed Oct 27, 2025 - Jan 9, 2026, and the onsite restaurant, Phat Fish, is closed Oct 27 - Dec 2, 2025. The outdoor pool remains OPEN. In light of these temporary inconveniences, we have adjusted our rates to offer you the best value during this period. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation.
Welcome to SunDestin 1818, your perfect beach getaway in the heart of Destin, Florida—just steps from the sugar-white sands and sparkling turquoise waters of the Gulf of Mexico! This top-floor penthouse retreat offers the best of both worlds: sweeping city views through floor-to-ceiling windows (you might even catch a dazzling fireworks show!) and tranquil Gulf vistas from your private balcony, accessible from both the living room and master bedroom. You may even spot dolphins playing in the surf! Inside, you'll enjoy panoramic water views from every window, and a fully updated interior designed for comfort and style. The modern kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to dine in—including an air fryer and Instant Pot for convenient cooking. Whether you're sipping wine on the balcony at sunset, enjoying a family meal, or just unwinding after a day at the beach, this space is designed to help you relax and feel at home. Walk to Destin's Favorite Beachfront Dining!
