What an incredible stay! The view from the balcony alone made this trip unforgettable & breathtaking. It has unobstructed views of the Gulf and the bay that we couldn't stop taking pictures of. The space was spacious and comfortable for our group.Communication with the host was quick and easy the entire stay. Being close to great restaurants and bars was a huge bonus... we barely needed to drive anywhere.This place exceeded our expectations in every way. We'd book again in a heartbeat and highly recommend it to anyone looking for an amazing Destin getaway.

My grandchildren had plenty of room to play safely! The Harbor has good restaurants and cute little stores that are within walking distance, the shuttle to the beach is so convenient and the water is ABSOLUTELY beautiful! This place has EVERYTHING you need to have the perfect vacation!

Location Location Location!! This view is by far the best!! You can see Crab Island, watch all of the boats go in and out of the waterway. See all of the sunsets, watch a wedding from your balcony, people watch, and the unit is on the pool level so you can walk steps to the pool. Panoramic views of the water and sand dunes. We housed 6 people and it was very spacious and fully equipped. The balcony is a wrap around and you can enter from each bedroom, dining room, and living room!. Wow! And many places to sit and watch, read, relax and eat! Easy exit to the village down one level and you are where the activity and shopping is, along with being at the harbor! So many fun activities to choose from. Scott and Terri, our host, checked in on us daily and is very welcoming and hospitable. We will not look any further when returning because this oversized unit with the best views is just breathtaking! My 3 grandkids had a blast. Thank you Scott and Terri for sharing your unit so others can enjoy! Oh and the garden tub is nice too! and watching the fireworks on the patio/balcony was awesome!

Safe, Clean and Convenient

This stay was perfect for me and my friends! I will say the balcony is in a very public area-which was nice to watch the weddings and be able to walk to the hot tub and pool which was as close as you can get. Very convenient and security does multiple rounds so we always felt safe as well. I would highly recommend the stay the host was great about communicating and checking in on us. Very thorough.

Heavenly

We absolutely love GV25, location and spaciousness we’re the keys we were looking for. Can not beat the view or ease of access to anywhere you need to go. From the boardwalk to the bar, to shop or head out out to Crab Island, it is all within a quick decision. The owners were very personal and easy to deal with. Second time we have stayed here and will every time we visit.

Prime location to everything

Nice and amazing property. The convince of going to the pool or Harbor walk right off your balcony made this a prime property. We enjoyed the firework show right off our balcony and watching the boats in the Harbor going out all day. Would definitely stay at this location again when we come back to Destin. Scott the owner communicated with us and gave us great directions on check in and where to park. You won’t be disappointed with this property.

Emerald Grande - Heavenly Harbor

This property is amazing! We were located right next to the pool and had an amazing view from the balcony. We were also a very short walk to the elevator leading straight to the harborwalk. The host is very accommodating; our daughter still sleeps in a crib, and Scott went out of his way to buy a pack-n-play for us upon our arrival. Would highly recommend!

Home is beautiful

It was an amazing house and location! Worked perfectly for my elderly mom. Son loved the bunk beds and being on the same floor of the pool. Loved the washer/dryer in unit. The concierge decorated the unit for my sons birthday! Was all around a great place. The elevator ticket down to the boardwalk is on the same floor as well. It was an easy access to everything.

Scott and Terri were very friendly and professional. They communicated promptly and went out of their way to ensure our family was comfortable in a clean and well equipped home. Waking up and falling asleep with the "Grande View" was the perfect way to end our spring break family vacation. The pictures cannot accurately capture how beautiful the view is from this unit.

About the host

Hosted by Scott

Host profile image
We are Scott and Teri Wirth. We moved to Destin in 2023 from Minnesota. We absolutely love this town, the beaches, the beautiful water and golfing. We purchased Heavenly Harbor in 2022 and fell in love with it at first sight. The spacious, quiet feel was so comforting yet close to all the fun activities in the harbor. We think you'll love it too!
