About this property
Destin Gulf Front Condo - Top Floor View of the Emerald Water- Sleeps 6!
Our condo is on the top floor and our view is fantastic. Unit 716 is not a "middle stack" unit, so the view is superior to many others in the building ! This remodeled condo is direct Gulf-front at its best! The unit features brand new tile throughout, new stainless appliances and quartzite counter-tops, and a classic fresh, open look that will delight you! NOTE: We rent in 7 day increments, with check-in and check-out on Saturday. So stays are typically one week, two weeks, etc.
Located at the ever-popular Holiday Surf and Racquet Club on exclusive Holiday Isle... a peninsula surrounded by the Gulf of Mexico and Destin Harbor... View sugar white sand and the emerald green waters of the Gulf of Mexico right from your own living room and private balcony!
You don't have to cross the road to enjoy the surf here. Removed from US Highway 98 traffic, but minutes from restaurants, shopping, boat docks, fishing, golf, and amusements. Walk or jog on Holiday Isle's two and a half miles of sidewalks, or bike through its quiet neighborhood streets. Nothing else in Destin can compare!
This one bedroom, one bath, seventh-floor unit sleeps six... with two full size beds in the bedroom and a queen-size sleeper sofa in the living room. The cook will find an open concept fully-equipped kitchen... with a breathtaking view of the Gulf of Mexico! Dining table seats four with two more spots at the breakfast counter. We have a 50” Smart TV in the living room and a 32" Hi-Def TV in the bedroom in case you hit a rainy day or want to watch TV at night.
NOTES: Minimum rental age 25 and is verified at check-in by staff. Our condo does not allow any pets and it is a No Smoking and No Vaping condo. Beach chair service is NOT included with our unit's rental fee, but you typically can rent for $40/day from the beach service vendor, bring your own chairs from home or buy something inexpensive locally at the nearby WalMart or Target.
Just outside Holiday Surf's door you can step into our heated pool... or take a few steps across sugar white sand to swim in the beautiful emerald green water of the Gulf of Mexico. Holiday Surf offers two tennis courts and exercise facilities onsite. Opportunities for paddle boarding, kayaking, parasailing, snorkeling, and fishing can be found along the beach too.
Holiday Surf & Racquet Club is located a little east of the 'jetties,' where the Gulf of Mexico and Destin Harbor meet, a spot well-known for great snorkeling and diving. And the perfect place for the end of the day... Here you can watch a parade of boats returning from Gulf to harbor as, behind them, the sun sinks into the Gulf of Mexico.
Only a few minutes' drive will take you to Destin Harbor... home of Destin's world-class charter fishing fleet, plus sailing excursions, sunset cruises, jet ski and pontoon boat rentals, diving, snorkeling and dolphin watching trips... also, wonderful water-view restaurants and fun dockside bars. Nearby are abundant shopping opportunities... from exclusive boutiques to outlet stores, antiques, and art to sandals and bathing suits. Numerous golf courses and amusement parks are only a short drive away.

Great view overlooking the pool and Gulf. Can see dolphins from the room. Beach was great. Beds were nice. The tide pools at the end of the room were fun.
Great location and great view. Watched the boats go in and out everyday and watched dophlins almost everyday. Watched fireworks from the balcony on Friday night.The condo was clean and the view was awesome. The host were quick to respond with any questions.

Thank you for your kind words. I’m very happy to hear you enjoyed your stay.
Absolutely loved the condo and building. Great access to beach and pool. Property manager wouldn’t allow us to have our own canopy at the back of the beach which was a bummer but overall great stay!! Would stay again!!
We really enjoyed our stay at this property. The condo was the perfect size for my husband and myself and the view was incredible. Our host provided all information in a timely manner and made sure we had everything we needed. We would definitely stay again.
The condo is amazing. It was our 2nd year in a row staying in the same condo. I would recommend this property for everyone.

Our stay was great! Clean, stocked appropriately, owner was very attentive. The ONLY thing was one of the beds mattress was way too firm, otherwise its 10/10.
We loved our stay at this property. Everything was convenient. We cooked in and ate out. The beds were comfortable. It was quiet and comfortable. Our host Frank was very nice. We look forward to visiting again.
The room was absolutely perfect. Really enjoyed being on the balcony in the morning seeing dolphins.Frank was wonderful communicating from start to finish.Our family will most definitely stay here again.If there was any feedback, I could give to the resort it would be to get an ice maker on site.
The condo and property/grounds were very clean. Condo was well equipped with essentials cooking, bathroom supplies etc. The view from the condo is worth the trip! We really enjoyed our stay and look forward to a future visit.

About the host
Hosted by Frank and Myong Lane
Our names are Frank and Myong Lane and we live in Niceville, Florida. We look forward to having guests experience and enjoy the beautiful Emerald Coast as much as we do.
Why they chose this property
The beaches in Destin Florida are superior to any other in the continental U.S. and the crystal clear, emerald green water is fantastic to swim in. Our condo is on Holiday Isle which is a very upscale section in Destin and when you travel down Gulf Shore Drive to our condo you will pass by multi-million dollar gulf front homes which are beautifully landscaped. The aesthetic of Holiday Isle is gorgeous, beautifully landscaped and quiet, as it is off the 'main drag' of Destin. The view from our balcony is incredible !
What makes this property unique
Our fantastic direct gulf front condo offers easy access to sugar white sand beach, heated pool, tennis courts, snorkeling, sea kayaking and other water & beach activities. Our condo is located close to the Destin Harbor district, where you can dine overlooking the gulf & harbor, rent a pontoon boat or jet ski, go charter fishing or take a dolphin cruise.
