Dune Our Thing is located close to the Silver Sands Factory Outlet, the nation’s largest designer factory outlet featuring more than 100 name-brand designer stores. Also close by is the Destin Commons with incredible eateries, upscale shopping, a park with pop-up fountains at its center, and favorites like Bass Pro Shops and Hard Rock Cafe.
Grand Boulevard Town Center is a pedestrian-friendly, shopping and dining complex just off Emerald Coast Parkway, convenient to both SanDestin and Miramar Beach. For the high-end shopper, the center offers everything from Fusion Art Glass Gallery to Brooks Brothers Country Club. A number of boutiques, such as Hello, Sunshine and Magnolia House, carry fare you can't find anywhere else. Dining options include Mitchell's Fish Market, P. F. Chang's China Bistro, and Cantina Laredo Gourmet Mexican Food. In 2013, Walton County’s first movie theater opened at Grand Boulevard’s Town Center – the state-of-the-art Boulevard 10 Movie Theater.
If you are near Miramar Beach, the snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Dolphin Reef, deployed in 2017. Located just 685 feet straight out from the Miramar Regional Public Beach access (by Pompano Joe's), it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Dolphin Reef is at a depth of 12-20 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

This place was amazing! The unit was extremely clean & the grounds were very clean as well. The room is right off of the pool, so if like me, you hate walking or have little ones this is your place. The host was extremely friendly and helpful. We would absolutely love to stay at this beautiful place again.

Amanda, thank you for your 5-star review. We're happy to hear you enjoyed the clean unit and grounds, as well as the convenient poolside location. We look forward to hosting you again with RealJoy Vacations!
Beautiful property overall! The trees and greenery throughout a plus. Condo was clean and very well maintained. Convenient location to pool area. Will definitely visit here again!!
Gail, Thank you for taking the time to review your stay. We’re glad you enjoyed this updated condo and the location worked well for you. We hope you will visit us again soon. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.
Beach chairs not included with rental. Some condos at Hidden Dunes include beach chairs and an umbrella (50/day value) that are set up by a company on the beach. It’s very convenient as you just show up, enjoy the beach, and leave the chairs when you are done. This particular unit does not. It comes with two rusted beach chairs stored in the laundry closet that you have to transport back and forth. Pickleball is nice. Costs 25/hour for two people. Clay tennis courts are also available This unit is right next to one of two pools, which is nice. This is a quiet community, not many loud people The unit itself is clean and updated.

Thank you for your feedback, Thomas! We're glad you found the unit clean and updated, and that you enjoyed the convenience of being close to the pool. We appreciate your comments regarding the beach chairs; we'll take them into consideration as we strive to enhance our guest experience. It’s great to hear you enjoyed the pickleball and the peaceful atmosphere of the community. We hope to welcome you back for another stay in the future!
We enjoyed our stay at this one bedroom in Hidden Dunes. The remodel was beautiful and comfortable, and though we were worried about staying so close to the pool, the noise did not penetrate inside, and "quiet time" started at 10 pm. It's a lovely condo.
Everything was new and clean.
However, the new fans with their remote controls would only set to low, and the bedroom fan barely spun around regardless of what speed we pressed. The bedding was very thin and cheap and too small for the bed. Sleeping comfortably at our age is so important, nicer bedding would have made a huge difference.
But overall it was a lovely stay.
Daniela, Thank you for the 5-star review. We are thrilled to hear that you loved your vacation and hope you will join us again soon. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.
