About this property
Penthouse ocean view condo will take your breath away!
Relax on the beautiful balcony overlooking the beach that Southern Living Magazine voted #1 in the United States! Located in the penthouse, directly on the beach, you will see everything from dolphins to gorgeous sunrises and sunsets- and all right in the heart of Destin. This 2-bedroom, 2-bath luxury 16th floor penthouse vacation rental is located right across from the Big Kahuna Water Park and has direct access to the beautiful white sands of the Emerald Coast. The property is close to everything Destin has to offer including shopping at the Destin Commons and outlets, coffee shops, grocery stores, and savory seafood restaurants. This exclusive property is a gated building and boasts only three units on each floor.
What we fell in love with when we first saw this condo was the expansive balcony. Whether sipping coffee in the morning, enjoying a family meal around the table, basking in the sun, or sipping wine in the evening, if you’re like us, you may never want to leave. Our condo is beautifully appointed with classic beach decor and furnishings- featuring a state of the art kitchen with all the upgrades you would expect- granite counter tops, all new stainless appliances, and fully stocked equipment for the chefs among us all. This unit is bigger than typical 2 bedroom units, with over 1,300 sq feet of living space and a massive balcony.
The Destin Towers features a communal pool and hot tub and direct (gated) beach access. You can also access the grilling area, high speed internet, tennis court, and so much more.
The master bedroom looks directly out to the ocean and features a king bed (think sleeping to the sound of the ocean). The master bath has both a glassed shower and separate jacuzzi tub. The guest bedroom has a unique set of options- with both bunk beds and a queen bed allowing up to four to sleep in the room. It has direct access to the guest bath which has a shower/tub combo. The living room couch is a pull out queen that allows for two additional guests to sleep. The modern kitchen is fully equipped. Just bring the chef! The dining area seats 6 and the four bar stools ensure everyone has a place to eat. All the comforts of home!

A perfect vacation! Check in info was sent early and made for a seamless arrival. The condo was spacious and spotless. View from the balcony was second to none-left the balcony doors open all night to listen to the waves. We will be back!
View from the balcony was spectacular. Condo has direct access to the beach making beach walking so much easier.Condo was well equipped and very comfortable.
The view was incredible, and with 4 people the place was so specious! We very much enjoyed our stay. Everything was nice, clean and updated. Also, ALL the jets worked on the jet tub, which is a huge plus bc so often this is not the case. :-D
Check-in to check-out and everything in between our stay here was phenomenal. The easiest Check-in and Check-out process I’ve experienced with a beautiful condo which is well equipped.
The water was like we were in the Cayman Islands! The waves were perfect for our 5 year old twins, not rough at all. Overall amazing stay and location, condo was great
Love this condo! It’s the third time we’ve stayed here, and we will be back again in the future. Beautifully decorated and well-stocked, clean, stunning views from huge balcony, smaller property so only one row of beach chairs, gorgeous stretch of beach, top floor so no one is above you (quiet)… Just the perfect spot in the heart of Destin. It’s our Happy Place, and we can’t wait to return soon!!
Absolutely lovely! We had immediate contact with the owner who welcomed us and answered any questions I had. We have stayed at Destin Towers for many years but this was the cleanest, well stocked unit we have ever stayed in. We have learned to bring the little things that most places don't provide but this place had it all and then some. Thank you!
We had an incredible stay at this condo! It was spacious, spotless, and check-in/check-out were so easy. The balcony was huge with the most amazing ocean views. The location was fantastic—not only close to local amenities, but within an hour in either direction you can experience a whole different vibe and so many fun things to do. The kitchen had everything we needed, and there were tons of beach toys and games for the kids and family to enjoy. The beds were super comfortable, and everything was set up perfectly for a relaxing stay. We will definitely be coming back!
Clean property. PHENOMENAL VIEWS!! Owner was very responsive and helpful with any and all requests. We will definitely stay here every year from now on out.

Miss it already!
The view!! My days were spent on the beach or on that balcony! We will be back!
Best location we’ve stayed at. Smaller building, easy parking and great location. Condo was spacious, comfortable, clean and had everything we needed. We will definitely be staying here again.
This property is very nice, quiet, and conducive to folks relaxing and enjoying the FL coastline. Nice property and we would stay here again! Two thumbs up!
Very cozy and clean with a nice floor plan, and great location! Balcony is spacious…even though no sunset views the rest of the views were amazing, calming and relaxing.
The condo was in an ideal location, and the building felt very secure. It was spacious enough for our family, and we had minimal noise from nearby properties. Some of the furniture and bedding are starting to show signs of wear, and the outdoor furniture was noticeably worn. That said, the owners were very responsive and helpful throughout our stay, which we really appreciated.
We had a very nice stay. The condo is exactly as shown and is in a very convenient location. The beach is gorgeous and we especially enjoyed the balcony when we had to hide out from some bad weather.
