About this property
Dog-friendly, 2 bed/2ba with beach service for 4, Miramar Beach, FL by Destin
2 king size bedrooms suites w/2 full bathrooms and sofa bed in wonderful Miramar Beach-Destin, FL. This 3rd floor condo is two doors from the elevator, tucked away in a quiet corner (no one walking by bedroom windows!), It is just a few yards away from the beautiful white sands and clear blue waters of the gulf coast! Come enjoy the many amenities of the Maravilla Resort Community, which offers two swimming pools (one near the beach, the other heated year around) a hot tub, fitness center, tennis/pickle ball courts, BBQ grilling areas, and plenty of green space for pets. Walk to several shops and restaurants, including local favorites like Pompano Joe's, Kenny D's and Captain Dave's on the gulf within a mile you also have Surf Hut, Crab Trap and Whale's Tail. Outlet shopping is just a few minutes away and there is a plethora of family friendly fun to be found in the area! Since becoming owners in 2020 both the unit and the resort have seen updates, with major exterior renovations in 2025. Take advantage of the updates we have completed inside. We have added new furniture in both bedrooms, new ceilings, (goodbye popcorn) a new tiled walk-in shower in the main bedroom, and new tiled bath/shower combo in shared bath. There is new flooring throughout, a stackable washer and dryer, and a full kitchen with every tool you need to whip up a meal. We offer a single-cup, keurig-style coffee maker and a traditional coffee maker as we realize everyone has a preference! There is a dining table that seats 6, king beds in both the main and the guest room, full bathrooms attached to each bedroom, and a living room with a sleeper sofa/loveseat combo, and a twin bed foldout chair that would be suitable for a small child. Smell the ocean air and a side view of the water while enjoying the over-sized balcony, accessible via both the main bedroom and living room. Flexcation capable with free high-speed WiFi, an office desk and chair in the guest room, 3 smart TV's and DirectTV service included. The beach area for Maravilla is deeded private, which greatly reduces crowds. It is rare you are disturbed by another guests' loud music and no tents are allowed in front of the beach service chairs! No getting up early to reserve a great spot or hauling chairs to the beach as seasonal beach service for 4 is also complimentary! This means you get two umbrellas and four chairs set up for you daily! (Typically available Mar-Oct) Our hallway closet has an assortment of beach toys that you are free to use and return for the next guests. When we say we would love for you and your family to stay with us, we mean your tail-waggers too! We welcome all size dogs, as long as they are friendly, not allowed on furniture/bedding, and crated when alone in the unit if chewers or not housebroken. Please know that deposits will absolutely not be returned if there is pet damage or excessive fur is found on furniture and linens that requires added cleaning. If your dog creates a noise disturbance while you are away, or you are caught not picking up after your dog, you could be fined by the community. Please keep this in mind before traveling with Fido! Dogs are not allowed on the beach, unless you have a resident license per Walton County and then only on public beaches. Please notify us if you intend to travel with your dog or dogs and ask us any questions if you are unsure. Unfortunately, certain breeds are prohibited due to insurance restrictions.

I thoroughly enjoyed myself at this condo! The place was very comfortable and great location! The beach chairs and umbrella were an absolute gift each day and we so appreciate the convenience of them. I would definitely come back to this condo again and the owners were rasy to communicate with.
Unit was very clean, tastefully decorated, well-supplied. Perfect location as we could catch the morning sun on this end unit without blocking hallway traffic. And later we could catch the afternoon sun on the balcony. Pool is warm, water aerobics three times a week. Heather is completely wonderful and always responds promptly. I’ll give as many stars as possible.
Amazing place!! Beautiful home with everything you need ! Super close to the beach and we loved the chairs and umbrella service! We will definitely book here again ! Thank you Stuart and Heather for an amazing family vacation!

Woohoo! We appreciate you choosing us. Thanks for taking the time to post a review. Hope you will return. (Hint -more updates planned for the unit in late 2023)
Our stay was amazing! Such a convenient location and we loved the condo! It was even better in person. Beds were some of the most comfortable beds we have slept in, in a rental property. We also loved the stocked closet of beach supplies. We have 3 boys and only one boogie board but found 2 extra boards in the closet which was a sweet surprise. We will definitely be booking here again!

Kathy - We couldn't be happier to have you and your husband stay with us. You always keep us up to date and take such great care of the unit. Thank you for your thoughtfulness each year and for these kinds words.
The condo was clean, updated and just perfect. Just steps away from the private beach & beach service was included. Heather was great to work with! This was our 2nd time staying at this condo and we couldn’t be happier!!

About the host
Hosted by Heather and Stuart Martin
A beach place of our own has always been a dream. That dream included a place we could enjoy with every member of the family, including our dogs. We wanted a place that was at a beach with beautiful, carribbean-like sand and water, yet less congested, and without the spring break party vibe. We found it at Maravilla in Miramar Beach. It is now a favorite spot for our entire family to spend time together. For guests and family members seeking a little bigger crowd and maybe something a little livelier, Pompano Joe's is a short walk down the beach, and Crab Island is a short drive. We just love our low-density community which is nestled between Destin and Sandestin, either just minutes away. It's the ideal location in the panhandle. We think you will feel the same and can't wait for you to experience it for yourself.
Why they chose this property
This special property is located in a convenient and highly desirable, low-density community that is part of Miramar Beach/Destin. There is plenty of activity to be found, but it is far quieter than many of the most popular panhandle locations nearby like Okaloosa Island (15 minutes) and Panama City Beach(50 minutes).
What makes this property unique
Dog-friendly, low-density community, oceanfront pool, beach service for 4 during the season, 33 acres of green space, private beach access, heated pool, hot tub, fitness center, bike path, amenities galore and LOTS to do in the area like parasailing, jet skis, paddle-boarding, kayaking, deep sea fishing, sea planes, golf courses, mini golf and adventure centers, waterparks, Destin's gulfarium, gator feeding at Fuddpuckers, outlet shopping, seriously good places to eat, and more...
