Why they chose this property
When we found Remarkable MARGARITA VILLA at Destiny Beach Villas, we immediately fell in love with the location and the community. It is so close to the beach and has wonderful lakefront views. It is also within minutes of a variety of restaurants, attractions, retail stores, and more beaches!
What makes this property unique
Want to go to the beach? Just walk out the front door of MARGARITA VILLA B and take a 3-4 minute walk and you are there! Use our provided beach cart to load the chairs and toys for an easy stroll to the silver sands.
We provide high quality beach gear, including a cart, toys, chairs, and even beach towels so that you don't have to lug yours to Destin then lug them back home!
Margarita Villa B is the ground floor, lakefront, and only 50 steps to pool (heated at Thanksgiving and 12/18-Easter. HOA may reduce heating if demand is low or for weather or extend the heating season if appropriate.
When you are done with the beach, come back to Margarita Villa B and relax on the rear deck and with its great view of the lake, or sit on the balcony with its partial view of the gulf.
