Keywords: Condominium
December 2011 update! - we just scrubbed the condo, updated kitchen utensils and replaced one of the older family room chairs (yes the infamous green chair is gone!). The condo is clean and in great shape. Even the building is freshly painted. Most images were recently taken.
Important note - I've owned this Destin Florida condo for 9 years, have all the required state licenses, and pay my sales tax obligations. If someone's price is too good to be true, it may be just that...
Relax in this quiet, professionally decorated Destin Florida condominium with private beach access. Only steps from the soft white sand and sparkling turquoise water, you will find everything here needed for a fun and relaxing vacation. Destin's Miramar Beach area has fewer buildings, crowds, and hassles than the rest of Destin.
Enjoy this smoke-free, tiled second floor unit that comfortably sleeps six with a queen bed in the master, queen sleeper sofa and hallway bunks. You will find this a very clean and quiet location for your vacation, and very family oriented. The kitchen is fully equipped with everything you need to make a fast breakfast or cook a full dinner for the family.
The view out the front door overlooks one of the two pools (one heated), and the balcony has is a partial view of the ocean. The family room has a large flat panel TV. Each of the TVs has a DVD player, and there is an X-Box for the kids with games included. In case you need to stay in touch with the office, wireless internet (WiFi) access is now FREE through a password-protected connection.
This well-maintained and recently repainted facility has two swimming pools, one heated and comfortable year-round. Take a dip in the hot tub after a long day of digging with the kids on the beach. The barbecue area has several large grills and is a great place to meet other families. Laundry facilities are located right down the hall.
Lounge chairs and umbrellas are available right across the street on the private beach for Gulfview guests. Access is now gated to ensure privacy. It's just a short walk along the beach to water sports, including jet skis, sailboats, and parasailing.
More than five miles of bike/jogging path along Destin Florida's Scenic Gulf Drive pass right by the building, plus a new boardwalk is being built right across the street. You can walk to some great seafood restaurants (Pompano Joe's, Captain Dave's, Kenny D's, and more), with shopping, golf, water parks, family fun centers, and the airport only minutes away. This gulf front location provides the ideal Destin Florida family vacation and relaxing getaway!

Year Purchased: 2002
Why the Owner Chose Gulfview
I love the wide beaches and crystal clear water. The Florida Gulf Coast has the nicest beaches in the US, if not the world. Gulfview is the perfect mix of value, convenience, and seclusion for a great family vacation.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo
Gulfview has two pools (one heated year-round) and a hot tub, which is rare for condos in this area. The private beach is rarely crowded, but if you look up and down the beach you can see how packed it gets in front of the larger condo buildings. Outside the building is a 5+ mile walking/biking trail along the beautiful beach. I just added a flat panel TV and free, password-protected wireless internet access.
Owner's Map of Gulfview
Hello. After purchasing some vacation rental properties in Destin and Panama City Beach, I decided to open up a vacation rental management company that caters to owners who rent their own properties. My personal condos are always well taken care of, and you'll find the staff extra responsive to your needs.

Loved it!

We had a great stay at Gulfview and really loved the condo! The kids actually enjoyed going to bed because they got such a kick out of the bunk beds, and my seven-year-old couldn't stop playing Mario Kart. That was a nice addition! Everything was absolutely wonderful. There are two pools, so we could separate the kids a bit from the adults that were trying to relax. We also really loved the keyless entry, which was SO much easier than having to search the beachbag for a key!

We stayed in this unit for 2 1/2 months and had a WONDERFUL Stay! Dave was GREAT to work with! I would have given 5 stars but there was some cleaning issues which Dave did everything he could to make it right! Once it was clean, it was a nice cozy place and felt like home! Loved the color scheme! The Beach is AWESOME! It is the most beautiful beach and the beautiful white sand (white sand is much prettier than white snow) GREAT location!

We stayed here in 2010 and enjoyed our stay. Clean, great location, family friendly, close to beach, restaurants with in walking distance... We were making plans to stay here again in 2011, but had a change in our plans. We will definitely contact Dave in future years about staying in his condo - he is honest and great to work with.

My family of 5 stayed at this condo for our fall break and had a GREAT time! The condo was clean and very accessible to the beautiful beach. We utilized the kitchen and even cooked a couple of times. The heated pool and hot tub was used daily and very nice. However, pool #2, the quiet pool, was like a pool of ice water, so not gotten in at all. The Gulfview condo was kept up nicely and really can't complain about much. Thank you for providing a great place to stay near the beach; very affordable!
