Our location is within a quick drive to Destin Commons, Silver Sands Outlets, and other popular entertainment and dining options like Crap Trap, Pompano Joes, & Camille’s. Beach access is just across the street – you can be there in minutes!
✔ Scenic 98 has a walking/biking path that stretches from end to end and is the perfect place for strolling through the quaint beach areas!
✔ If you like to snorkel, you will LOVE the artificial reef called Dolphin Reef, located just 685 feet straight out from the Pompano Joe's beach access. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of the permitted sea bottom. The Dolphin Reef is at a depth of 12-20 feet. (We advise that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation devices when visiting the snorkel reefs.) This location is just minutes from our beach house and has parking!

About the host
Hosted by Kris Moran, Property Manager
Hi and welcome to the beach! As a North Dakota native, I escaped the cold and snow and am proud to be an Emerald Coast resident since 2002! I own and operate a small collection of amazing vacation rental properties with my boutique agency, Beach Stays Vacations. I realized the way people vacation has changed along with their expectations and I couldn't find a company to manage my properties the way I would. And that is how Beach Stays Vacations was born! We are selective about the properties we manage and have curated an amazing collection of beach condos and villas in Florida and Alabama! We promise a well decorated and equipped, clean condo to make your beach vacation the best it can be!
Why they chose this property
Destiny is located on Scenic 98 in a gated neighborhood of million-dollar homes with resort style amenities. From the minute you enter the gate, you will feel like you are on the tropical vacation of your dreams! Our home is located on the beautiful lake with the Gulf of Mexico just beyond. We enjoy sharing our family's home with our guests and hope that you can make the same priceless memories that we have!
