About this property

Oceanfront Charm at Coral Reef 49 | 3BR w/ Balcony, Pool, & Free Beach Service!

🌊 Top-Floor Paradise! Wake up to panoramic Gulf views at Coral Reef Club 49.

An ideal condo for 2-3 families with children. Max occupancy varies depending on the ratio of adults to children. We sleep up to 10 people, but the condo is not huge - so it's most comfortable with up to 8.
Coral Reef Club is one of Destin s best kept secrets. Located on Scenic Gulf Drive, next to the Henderson Park Inn. It's a low-density, family-friendly resort (only 3 stories which means fewer people on the beach!)

CONTEMPORARY STYLE MEETS BEACHY DECOR!
Our large 3rd floor condo is a great place for your family to use alone or to share with friends. It is decorated with a beachy-contemporary flair, utilizing items such as galvanized steel pipes as curtain rods, clean lines in the tiles and decor with a splash of beachy colors and original commissioned artwork! The condo itself is open and airy with vaulted ceilings in the living room and expansive views from the kitchen and living areas.
You will be pleasantly surprised by all the extras in our home that you would not normally find in a rental unit. No need to pack up your porta-crib or highchair, we have them here! And of course, it goes without saying; you will love the white sand Destin beach that is just outside your door!

FIRST FLOOR

LIVING AREA
In our main living area, we have two sliding glass doors with AMAZING beach views. There's an over-sized sofa with a coffee table, side table, and lamps. Enjoy your favorite shows on the large Smart TV. There are also 2 swivel rocking chairs with reading lamp to sit and enjoy the expansive views. There are also two upholstered side chairs that serve a dual purpose-- they can be used chairs for gathering around together, or as dining chairs.

BALCONY
The balcony is likely where you'll spend a fair amount of time, so we made sure we provided comfy chairs to sit and enjoy your morning coffee, have an evening cocktail or just lounge all day watching the dolphins frolic in the water. Because the balcony faces directly south, you can easily see the beautiful sunrise to the east and breathtaking sunsets to the west.

FULLY EQUIPPED KITCHEN and DINING AREA
Even if you don t like to cook, you'll find inspiration in our kitchen with a dreamy view of the beach. We, of course, have equipped the kitchen with all the necessities such as a dishwasher, toaster, microwave, icemaker, blender, ample plates, glasses and kitchen utensils. You'll also find a Keurig K-cup coffee maker, as well as a Bonavita drip coffee maker.
The Dining area features a table with custom made table. For the wee little ones we have a highchair.

BEDROOM 1: KING MASTER WITH ATTACHED BATH (Main Level)
The Master suite has a King size bed with Egyptian cotton sheets, nightstands, reading lamps, large dresser, large closet and a Smart TV. The window has room darkening drapes.

MASTER BATH: The attached full bathroom features a commode, vanity with sink, and a shared Jack-and-Jill style shower room with a tub/shower combination unit. The bathroom is equipped with a hair dryer and large fluffy bath towels.

BUNK AREA (Main Level)
For the children, we have built-in bunk beds in the hallway. There is a door in the hallway so you can put the children to bed and not disturb them while you are still enjoying the living area and kitchen.

HALF BATH (Main Level)
There is a half bath on the main level with a commode and a sink. You also have access to Jack-and-Jill style access to the tub/shower room adjacent to the master bathroom. Also has a hair dryer and large fluffy towels.

SECOND FLOOR:

BEDROOM 2: JR. KING MASTER WITH ATTACHED BATH
The 2nd floor FULLY ENCLOSED loft bedroom has a King-size bed, with Egyptian cotton sheets, nightstands, reading lamps, chest of drawers, closet, and a Smart TV. This bedroom shares an attached Jack-and-Jill style bathroom which features a vanity with sink, tiled shower, hair dryer, and large fluffy bath towels.

BEDROOM 3: DOUBLE QUEEN BEDROOM WITH ATTACHED BATH
The 2nd floor fully enclosed loft bedroom has 2 Queen-size beds, with Egyptian cotton sheets, nightstands, reading lamps, chest of drawers, and a Smart TV. This bedroom shares an attached Jack-and-Jill style bathroom which features a vanity with sink, shower, hair dryer and large fluffy bath towels.

OTHER FEATURES INCLUDED
For your convenience, we also have a washer and dryer, and two irons and full-size ironing boards (one on each floor). And if you would like to keep up with friends, family or work while you are away, we provide free high-speed Wi-Fi.

Lovely stay at this condo

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, the condo was perfect size for our five kids and two adults. The beach is beautiful and the access was very convenient. We loved at nights when we were tired and we would open the patio door and just listen to the waves. Tons of dolphins swimming most days. We can't wait to go back to Destin some day.

Accommodations , cleanliness , comfort , convenience for shopping and restaurants all with a great view and not too crowded ! Staff was easy to work with and courteous , check in and out could not have been easier. We are already working on our return, can't wait.

Amazing Vacation....

We had two families of 4 staying in this condo and we absolutely loved it. The set up is perfect, the decor is adorable and it is so clean and comfortable. The balcony was a great place to watch for dolphins and see amazing sun sets. The owners had yummy donuts from The Donut Hole waiting for us when we arrived and they were wonderful to us the entire time we were at the property. The beach is right there and we spent most of our days right on it. Our girls loved swimming in the heated pool! A ton of wonderful restaurants like Lulu’s, The Back Porch & plenty of Irish pubs. We will come back to Destin for sure!

Incredible Place!

My sister and I spent a wonderful week in this beautiful condo. We love the beach, so the location was perfect…we just grabbed the beach towels and went downstairs to the beach everyday! The views are beautiful – it’s an end unit, and being on the 3rd floor, you can see so far. Sunsets were our favorite time to sit on the balcony! The entire place was so beautifully decorated, especially the comfortable bedrooms. I’ve stayed in several vacation rentals, and this one is by far the best. It was spotless – and the kitchen was stocked with everything we needed – if we had decided to cook! The location was also great – restaurants and shopping are very close by. I would definitely return and recommend it to my friends!

Wonderful place to stay with family

The condo was wonderful & right on the beach. It was as described & in a great location. The condo is updated and beautiful. We had no issues. Would have been nice to have some shelving in the upstairs shower - there was no place to put shampoo/conditioner, etc. Also - very few hangers were available in the closets. These were just small things, and did not effect the wonderful time we had in the condo. The beach is right down the stairs and not crowded at all. Our family of 7 fit comfortably and would definitely stay here again and would be happy to recommend!

Great location

The condo was just as described. Beautiful view and a perfect location! Very close to Publix , restaurants and anything you might need. We enjoyed the fact that it is also next to Henderson State Park, and therefore, that area of the beach wasn't very crowded. The beach service was very nice and after day one, he had our chairs reserved each morning. Our group of 6 adults and teenagers had plenty of space, but it would definitely be tight with any more. The spiral staircase is something to consider if you have young children or elderly people in your group. Getting a large suitcase up was difficult as well. The only small complaints are the lack of any mirrors in the upstairs bedrooms, and no shelving or hooks in the upstairs shower. Reservations, and check in was extremely easy, and our room was ready early on the day we arrived! Overall, the room was very nice, and the location perfect! We had a wonderful time and would definitely book here again.

Love destin beach

Condo is as pictured. Great view and very nice updates. Had a few issues the first night. Broken garbage disposal with water leaking under cabinet. Had to wait til next day then maintenance came late morning and had to replace entire thing. Condo owners left a box of doughnuts from a very famous shop for us. So nice but next day found hundreds of ants in box and on counters. Had to clean this and call maintenance again to spray. After the first 2 days everything else was fine. The girls in condo office and the beach guys were awesome. So polite and helpful.

Pros & Cons

PROS: 5 stars for Sugar Palm Vacation Rentals. From booking to responding to minor issues to follow up, this management company is great to work with. Owner was accommodating on allowing extra days to meet our schedule Location - Crystal Beach is the best location for convenience to both restaurants and places of interest. Coral Reef is conveniently located at the end of Matthew Avenue. This unit is conveniently located at the top of the stairs on the 3rd floor. Upstairs remodeled the right way! In most loft condos you have to walk thru the 1st bedroom and the adjoining bathroom to get to the 2nd bedroom. This one they remodeled with a hallway to avoid this. CONS: The pictures are deceiving. The living/kitchen area is much smaller than it looks. Can't imagine having 10 stay here. Better hope for good weather the entire time so everyone enjoys the beach. TV is mounted so high and room is so tight that it's uncomfortable to watch TV. Feels like your in the 1st row of a movie theater. Treacherous staircase. Hard to take luggage up & down. Mattress in master bedroom, although comfy, was well worn. Body indentations are not only felt, but clearly visible. Other minor, but fixable, issues were reported to the management company. Hopefully the owner resolves those issues to make your stay more comfortable and convenient.

Enjoyable Stay!

We had a *mostly* great stay in this unit! Beach access was great, the location is a favorite for us, and the unit itself was very enjoyable. Our ONLY complaint was the smoking policy at the condominium. Because the unit is on the top floor, we unfortunately had tenants below that smoked literally all day long, and the smoke inevitably floated to our balcony, making the balcony almost unusable. For us, having a balcony is always a must on our trips so we can enjoy the beach into the evening, but that was not the case this time. We did speak to the office manager, and they advised HOA policy allowed smoking on the balcony and beach. (We also asked to move chairs at the beach due guests smoking next to our kids - one of whom is asthmatic). I know smoking isn’t a deal breaker for many (normally including us), but in this case, there wasn’t more than a 5 minute period where we could enjoy the balcony without inhaling smoke. Again, the unit itself was great and we enjoyed that aspect very much!

This was an amazing place to stay.

We really enjoyed this place. We were on the third floor but the elevator was not that far of a walk. We were in the very end of the building and the elevator was in the middle of building. We liked our chairs and umbrella in front of our condo so we could watch what was going on from our balcony. You could hear the ocean from our balcony. It was just perfect!! Beds were so comfortable that we all kept sleeping more than we wanted. Thank you for this amazing experience.
