Owner's Profile
Owner Description
Year Purchased: 2008
The Blue Paradise condo is owned by Drs. Derrick and Sherri Davis. This family run business is designed with one thing in mind, pleasing our guests and providing them with the utmost in customer service, amenities and comfort.
Why the Owner Chose Gulfview
We wanted to buy a condo with very specific characteristics and Blue Paradise fit all those characteristics. We loved the fact that this was a corner first level unit steps away from the beach. That is the most appealing aspect of this location. We love being on the corner because you have a little more condo space and more windows. We love Scenic Gulf Drive...it parallels the beach, has walking trails and a warm and inviting feel. But the most important aspect of selecting this condo had to do with its location...it is directly across from the emerald coast and the beach is simple beautiful. It's breathtaking.
The Unique Benefits of this Condominium
Gulfiew Condos is steps, literally steps, away from the beach. Indeed, Gulfview has private beach gate access for residents and guests. It also has two pools (one is heated) as well as a whirlpool and small cookout area. In addition, the condo is walking distance from restaurants and connects to a walking trail for those beautiful beach view morning or evening walks.
