Our calendar is updated in real-time & our nightly rates are accurately displayed. Simply enter your desired dates and click 'Book Now!'

Sterling Shores is under renovation for a beautification project in which they are working on all balconies and walkways to the condos. Due to this beautification process, one pool closest to the building may close in November very briefly. No other amenities will be affected. Renovations are currently in progress Monday through Friday, 9:00 am to 5:00 pm. The renovation is set to be finished by 1/29/2026. If bad weather interferes with the beautification process, renovations could continue into February. If there are any updates, I will let you know. We have blocked down the units that are primarily affected by this construction. June-Labor Day is painting the exterior and should not cause much of a disturbance. After Labor Day, you may experience floor grinding noise and dust. We are sincerely sorry for any inconvenience this may cause you and we hope you enjoy your stay!

This charming beach retreat is at the Sterling Shores Resort. The soft white sand, clear turquoise water, and nearby activities will provide a vacation you will never forget. This condo has 2 bedrooms, each with an attached full bathroom and a queen sleeper sofa with a mattress topper for extra comfort. Vacasa staff are located in the ground-floor office to assist with any questions or issues during your visit.

The primary bedroom has a queen bed, an attached bathroom, and a large Jacuzzi tub/shower. The second bedroom has a full bed with its own attached full bathroom. Both bedrooms have ceiling fans, blackout curtains, TVs, and DVD players.
The kitchen is fully equipped and includes a blender, toaster, and Keurig duo coffee maker that uses K-Cups or ground coffee. Four large gas grills are located near the pool.

The living room has a smart TV with streaming apps (you must use your own account to access them), a queen sleeper sofa, two reclining chairs, and a ceiling fan.
The dining table has seating for six, but there are also three bar seats for extra space.

The balcony has a high-top table for unobstructed views of the white sand beach, Gulf, and sunsets. Plus, two patio chairs and a chaise lounge.
The hall closet has a folding wagon for guests to use, and there may be some chairs and beach/pool toys you can use. Please clean the sand off before returning them to the closet.

This property features a lagoon-style pool and a smaller pool by the beach (heated in the winter). Seasonal drink/snack shack by the small pool or an easy walk to the Sand Bar for great food/drinks and live music in the summer (located on the beach at the condo complex to the east). Take out food/drinks from the Back Porch and get sweet treats from the Candymaker.

Sterling Shores is located just off Highway 98, but the condo is well-insulated, so traffic noise is not a problem. It is a short walk to delicious restaurants like 790 Gulf and The Back Porch. Grocery and retail stores just down the road include Target, Whole Foods, Walmart, and Publix. Easy drive to the Destin Harbor for food, entertainment, boat rentals, or excursions. Also, check out Baytowne Village for more food and entertainment.
