The HOA has notified us that they will be painting the exterior of the St. Lucia Building. We have not been given a detailed schedule for the project, however they have stated that the project will begin on the front of the building in September 2023 and continue into Early March 2024. We expect that this will be a minimal disruption to your stay. A portion of the upper parking deck will be blocked off for equipment, but this will not affect the assigned parking in the interior of the garage. Please give us a call at 850.269.1005 if you have any questions or concerns.

Beautiful Fall Break Getaway

Our unit was beautifully decorated and furnished with everything that we needed. The pools were great, beach access was easy to get to, and just a short walk in the beach to the Back Porch where we ate twice! We especially loved having access to the private cabana right by the main pool! We will definitely be back again!

Before school starts…

I can’t say enough about Silver Shells resorts. This was our 4th visit here! We haven’t stayed in the same condo twice, but each time, our stay is lovely. The cabana that came with St Lucia 305 was so wonderful! We kept lunch and snacks there and essentially never left the beach or the pool. Great proximity to other restaurants/attractions, but only if you want to leave!

We appreciate you continuing to stay at Silver Shells every time you visit Destin, Camala! Having a poolside cabana makes having fun by the pool and beach so much easier. Can't wait to see you around again! Thank you for choosing Compass Resorts.

I recently stayed at this condo and overall had a good experience. The unit was very clean and well-maintained, which I really appreciated. The location is excellent—close to the beach, restaurants, and shops, making it easy to get around without a car.However, I was a bit disappointed to find that the condo itself did not have any beach views. I had expected to be able to see the ocean from the unit, but that wasn’t the case. It’s something to keep in mind if a view is important to you.That said, if you’re looking for a clean, conveniently located place to stay and don’t mind the lack of a view, this condo is a solid choice
