Wake up to swaying palms, shimmering pool views, and a partial view of the Gulf at Gulfview Retreat at The Palms—an updated, family-friendly condo at The Palms of Destin. Just minutes from the beach, this coastal escape offers the perfect mix of comfort, convenience, and resort-style amenities in one of Destin’s most popular vacation communities.

The Space:
This fifth-floor condo is designed for easy, relaxed living with an open-concept layout that brings everyone together. The fully equipped kitchen features granite countertops and stainless-steel appliances. It's easy to prepare anything from a quick breakfast to a full family dinner. The dining table seats four, with additional seating for four at the breakfast bar. The living room offers a comfortable place to unwind and includes a pull-out sofa that sleeps two, making the condo ideal for families or small groups.

The primary suite provides a quiet retreat with direct access to the private balcony, while the second bedroom includes full-sized bunk beds and its own attached bathroom, giving kids or additional guests a space of their own. The private balcony, accessible from both the living room and primary bedroom, is perfect for enjoying morning coffee, sunset skies, and views of the resort pool with a hint of Gulf breeze.

Beach and Dining:
You’re just minutes from the sugar-white sands of Henderson Beach State Park, one of the most popular family-friendly beaches on the Emerald Coast. The resort’s seasonal shuttle makes getting there easy without the hassle of parking. It's also just a short 10-minute walk (or ~2-minute drive) to the June White Decker Public Beach Access. There is public parking available near the beach access.
Nearby dining options include local favorites like The Back Porch and Boshamps Seafood and Oyster House, both known for fresh Gulf seafood and a relaxed coastal atmosphere. For shopping, dining, and entertainment, Destin Commons and HarborWalk Village are just a short drive away and offer a wide variety of options for all ages.
