Come enjoy a truly relaxing stay at “Captain’s Quarters” in central Destin!
Our family friendly complex offers 3 pools (one seasonally heated) & a fishing pond for your enjoyment! We're approximately 3/4 away from public beach access (driving distance) & walking distance to restaurants, parks, family activities, and shopping!
PLEASE NOTE: At this time our HOA is doing a full remodel of two of the community pools. During this time the Heated pool near the tennis courts & the pool near building 6 will be unavailable to guests. The pool next to building 21 will be available for guests during this time. We apologize for any inconvenience, but are looking forward to our brand new pools soon!
*All guests must read our listing description & house rules in full before booking. This condo is not a good fit for everyone, so we want to ensure you have a great stay*
While you're not beachfront (note we are approximately 3/4 mile driving distance from public beach access at June Decker Park) & there isn't a fantastic view, the exceptional proximity to everything "Destin" can't be beat! We understand that our home may not be a good fit for everyone, we go above and beyond for our guest satisfaction!
At Captain's Quarters we’ve created a space that once you arrive, you’ll leave all your worries at the door. Our desire is to have guests relishing in the fine design, custom touches, and tranquil vibes for their Destin experience.
Our rare layout of two bedrooms & two attached full bathrooms leaves plenty of room for your entire group to enjoy. We can accommodate up to 8 guests in our cozy setting. You'll be impressed with the level of detail that has gone into the decor here, with custom touches from floor to ceiling!
Our second floor condo offers a stairway entrance to the breezeway (sorry, no elevator access) which is open air, not a stuffy hotel or mega-complex feel. Guests can enjoy no upstairs neighbors for a relatively quiet stay! For ease of access, guests are provided with keyless entry code the day of arrival-no need to fumble with keys. Parking is a breeze as well, with many spots directly in front of our building.
Upon arrival, you'll enter directly into the living room area that will have you kicking back in no time at all on our comfy sectional, with an open layout that everyone can enjoy together. From our rustic wood ceiling, to the back wall full of windows, guests can enjoy a comfortable "sail away with me" feel that we've created. We've added a large SmartTv on the "gator skin" wall with HuluLive included, right above an electric fireplace for those "rare" chilly Florida nights. Enjoy a few board games for evenings in, or just to entertain the kids! Guests that are working or schooling in their home away from home can setup at the desk in the living area, a highly sought after amenity for many travelers. A small balcony with light seating right off the living space is a great space to begin the day with a cup of Joe, or wind down with an adult beverage!
Our open concept kitchen is unlike any others in the complex. We've built out the custom counter space to create a spacious breakfast bar with comfortable seating for 4. Additional seating is found at the dining table for 4. We offer a full suite of stainless appliances, a Hamilton Beach Flex Brew coffee maker (regular drip & Keurig), dishes, bakeware, silverware, cutlery, blender, toaster, griddle, teapot, and more! An added armoire serves as a great pantry space for your non-perishables. The cook in your group will surely be pleased to spend mealtime here!
For our tiny travelers, we have plastic bowls, plates, silverware, cups, a pack and play, and a small high chair. These items are always at the condo, so no need to request them or rent them elsewhere.
The first bedroom, closest to the entrance, offers a custom built in bunk bed with queen over queen bunks. Guests will find this space to be accommodating for both adults & children alike. There is adequate room for luggage storage under the bed, and clothing storage available in the wardrobe in the corner of the room. A smartTv is mounted here, with HuluLive programmed for guest use.
This bedroom has a private bathroom attached that includes a toilet, sink, a large stand up shower with a small seat & large showerhead.
The second bedroom is truly the "captain's quarters" with a plush King bed, wardrobe in the corner, and a large SmartTv with HuluLive. The attached en-suite bathroom has a custom tile walk-in shower complete with multiple shower heads, toilet, and large granite top vanity with a vessel sink.
For groups over 6 in occupancy, we offer an air mattress, or even sleeping accommodations on the cozy sectional if desired. Linens are provided for the air mattress, to be used as needed for groups of 8 guests.
A full sized washer and dryer is conveniently located in unit, directly off the living/dining area.
A few important things to keep in mind:
-We do not permit one night bookings/instant booking for weekends/holidays at any time.
-Extra guests not included in the reservation are not tolerated, please book with accurate guest count for your stay and to ensure we’ve provided enough linens to accommodate your group.
-Smoking is not permitted on the balcony or near the building at any time.
-Due to this being a residential complex, noise ordinances are at 10pm sharp. We do not permit excessive noise, parties, illegal activity, or disturbances at any time.
-This condo is video monitored outdoors for security purposes at all times.
-While we do host groups 25 years or younger at our discretion, we must be notified before your confirmed booking. We do not host one night bookings for ages 25 and younger at any time.
-Any stay that a house trained pet will be included in MUST be disclosed when booking, as a pet fee of $50 is required. We do not accept more than 2 dogs, and pets must be crated when unattended and cleaned up after inside and out. Pets are not permitted on furniture at any time. ADA recognized service animals are not charged a pet fee, but ESA (Emotional Support Animals) are still subject to pet fee. False information regarding a service animal is against the law in our state, so we appreciate your honesty in this matter.
-We are NOT beachfront, you can't see the beach, you can't stick your toes in the sand from the front door, and you do have to get in your vehicle to drive to the PUBLIC beach access that is 3/4 mile from our condo. We do not have a gated or private beach access at this location.
-This is a mixed community with residential & short term guests alike. While the gated community itself is a "community in transition" with updates to the exterior being improved steadily, we do not have control over any "look" of the exterior of our condo. We have gone above & beyond to create a beautiful & cozy space INSIDE for our guests enjoyment!
Guests have access to the entire second floor condo (sorry no elevator access, stairs only). Our gated complex offers 3 shared pools, with the pool closest to the the laundromat offering seasonal heating! There are tennis courts to enjoy, just bring your equipment! Our lake in the center of the complex has a fun walkover bridge that you can peek over to see hundreds of turtles below-enjoyed by children and adults alike!
