What you'll experience staying at Shelly Sands:

As you arrive at our condo, you'll instantly feel "vacation mode" set in as you hear the splashing in the pool right at the entrance, and see the waves crashing right across the street from our place. Our building is closest to the parking lot, making it simple to come & go without the hustle and bustle a large skyscraper condo would have. Up to the third floor, you'll see our condo right at the top of the stairs, and enter with your private keyless entry code.

Upon entering, to the left is the King bedroom. A brand new 2022 commercial grade mattress will leave you with a great nights sleep! We have a Roku-enabled TV here, so guests can feel free to login to their own media while traveling-now that you'll have some extra time to kick back & catch up on your favorite Netflix show! Enjoy closet space, and a small dresser to store your belongings in during your stay.

The bathroom is en-suite with direct access from the bedroom. You have a toilet, furniture style sink & vanity, and a shower & tub combo. The bathroom has a "Jack and Jill" style entrance on the opposite side, making it easy to access for your additional guests as well.

The hallway to the living space offers a set of built in twin bunk beds, which is a great space for extra guests & always a big hit for kids! Under the beds we have some light beach supplies, however keep in mind these are just items that have been left by previous guests & not actively stocked or guaranteed. We do, however, guarantee all guests with a basket of beach towels for your stay!

The living room area offers vaulted ceilings, a commercial grade queen sleeper sofa, accent chair, Roku-enabled TV, and plenty of natural light from our sliding glass doors! Step outside onto our cozy balcony to enjoy seating to have a cup of Joe or an adult beverage while getting a "peek-a-boo view" of the waves crashing in the gorgeous Gulf Of Mexico!

The kitchen area is an open concept to the living room, with a breakfast bar & dining table with adequate seating for meals, or even a great workspace for those "work from home" trips. We have full appliances, dishes, silverware, bakeware, cutlery, crockpot, blender, toaster, a Hamilton Beach Flexbrew coffee maker (for standard drip coffee & Keurig lovers alike),and more. We ask that you bring along any spices, oils, condiments, and of course groceries, as these items are not supplied.

For our tiny travelers, we offer plastic dishes, cups, silverware, a high chair, and a pack and play. These items are always at the condo for our guests to use, so there's no need to pack them along, or pay extra to rent them.

You are directly off the staircase that leads to the pool and hot tub area, and laundry right outside the door (the laundry facility does accept cash/coins/cards). Parking is easy and convenient as well, with the lot right at the bottom of the staircase that leads to your place! Please keep in mind as this is a third floor unit, there are three flights of stairs. There is no elevator anywhere in the complex. If you have mobility issues, our place is likely not a good fit for your trip.

We can accommodate up to 2 vehicles in the parking lot, with provided parking passes for your stay. No golf carts/boats/trailers/RVs are permitted at any time (or HOA fees will apply).

All linens are provided for any length of stay, with a pay per load washer and dryer right outside the unit if needed for longer trips. Keep in mind when planning your arrival that we supply a small courtesy amount of toilet paper, paper towels, trash bags, dishwasher/dish soap, laundry detergent, and soap that’s typically enough for the first 24 hours of your stay. For larger groups or longer trips it is recommended that you bring additional supplies as seen fit for your group size/length of stay.

Guests have full access to the condo, the complex pool & hot tub, pay per load laundry, free parking facilities, and the gated beach access right across the street (no major roads to cross, or crowded spaces!)

We are LOCAL & always available for questions before or during your stay. We prefer to be contacted by messaging directly through the booking platform you've chosen, so that we can ensure you get an immediate response. Please do not text us, and if placing a phone call be sure to know some info about your stay (the location of your stay and dates) so that we can provide you with the best service!

This condo is in it's own little slice of paradise! DIRECTLY across the street is gated beach access exclusive for Gulfview guests! You are also right along Scenic Highway 98, where there are many restaurants, beach stores, and of course our beautiful sandy white beaches! A few minutes drive in either direction will take you to Silver Sands Outlet Mall, Destin Commons (shopping/entertainment), Harborwalk Village, Big Kahunas, The Track, and many grocery stores, restaurants, and attractions for all ages. You can walk to the beach from here, and a few restaurants close by. Driving distance isn't far to anything at all as this is right across the Miramar Beach/Destin line!
