🏝Stunning Retreat-Private Beach-Umbrella Service for 4🏖-🐶 Welcome


There is a reason they call this 'Scenic Gulf Drive' - Come discover some of the most beautiful white beaches and majestic views in Miramar Beach and, for that matter, the entire Gulf. A true vacationers paradise! Scenic Solitude located in Maravilla Resort, one of the most highly sought after family and dog-friendly resorts in Maravilla Beach area. Maravilla is located between Scenic Gulf Highway and US 98W on the eastern perimeter of Destin in Miramar Beach.

A perfect mix of days at the beach, family activities, nearby golf, and a short walk to great restaurants, combine to make Maravilla one of Destin's most desirable vacation addresses. You will enjoy morning walks, afternoon swimming, and evening walks and fishing on the sparkling white beaches.

Our second home is located in Building 3, just steps from Maravilla's private beach, or the heated pool with jacuzzi. Our smoke-free and well-appointed condominium is open and spacious with a 27' balcony off of the living room and master bedroom and features one of the more spacious two-bedroom layouts in the development.

The main living area offers seating in a pastel blue matching sofa (a queen-sized sleeper sofa) and loveseat. For a bit of an accent, we have a new coral covered side chair. White wood furnishings accompany the seating and serve to complement the clean and refreshing look of the condo. The main living area has a flat screen 65" Samsung 4K Smart TV with cable connection. A new Ceiling fan/LED light that is operated with remote control.

The Master Bedroom has been appointed with an Englander king size mattress, with new bedding, Cindy Crawford furniture, 2 nightstands with lamps, and a wall-mounted 55" Samsung 4K Smart TV. A new Hunter ceiling fan/LED light that is operated with remote control. These amenities combine to create a sophisticated and comfortable reprieve for our guests.

The Guest Bedroom is appointed with a Sealy queen size mattress, with new bedding, two nightstands with lamps, a 42" Samsung Smart TV, and a new Hunter ceiling fan/LED light with remote control option. The main bathroom is easily accessible from the hallway outside of the Guest Bedroom.

The newly renovated kitchen includes white quartz with subtle gray vein counter-tops, brand new Maytag French Door refrigerator, Maytag Range, Maytag Dishwasher and state of the art low profile Microwave that allows for extra counter space for preparing food. A newly installed LED recessed lighting and cutting-edge light fixture over the range. Also included in the renovation is all new coffee pot, Keurig with pods, blender, toaster, instant pot, utensils, plates, glasses, and pots and pans. The dining area features a table and two Cunningham Woven Wicker chairs and four additional chairs.

Also, for your convenience, is a stackable washer/dryer, new hair dryers in both bathrooms, and a new iron and ironing board.

Relax in either of Maravilla's two pools or spend time under your two umbrellas at the beach, which we provide, along with four chairs reserved and set up each day in season (March 8-October 31) by Holiday Isle Beach Service. There is a new addition to Miramar Beach, Dolphin Reef. The reef offers visitors a fascinating glimpse at South Walton's Ocean life. The reef is composed of more than 75 artificial structures that, when viewed from above, form the shape of Miramar Beach's resident Bottlenose dolphins. Dolphin Reef is easily accessible kayak or paddleboard and given its shallow depth, it can be explored by snorkelers and swimmers. For the more athletically minded, play on one of Destin's many championship golf courses, work out in Maravilla's private fitness center, or play tennis on either of two newly resurfaced (2017) courts. You can even shoot some hoops or play some shuffleboard on-property.

Of course, there are always amusement parks, miniature golf courses, and shopping at Destin Commons or Silver Sands Factory Stores to compete for your leisure time.

You are walking distance to some of the best dining options, Pompano Joe's and Captain Dave's, both on the Gulf for an evening of pleasure and relaxation.

There's plenty of room for your family of six, and your beach accessories. Enjoy the view from our large, 27 ft. long, third floor balcony, with 2 ceiling fans, that looks out through the palms to the Gulf, and some magnificent sunsets. The balcony is accessible from both the main living area, and the master suite. Step onto the balcony, take a seat on the patio furniture, sip your favorite beverage, and have a relaxing evening with your family or friends while the breeze rustles through the palms.

Great Property located close to the beach. Private beach entrance with beach service. Condo was exactly as described. Clean with lots of amenities. Plenty of kitchen supplies if you want to cook instead of going out. Communication was great with the owner. Very nice place to stay.

Over all an amazing time at the beach and the condo is super nice and clean. The only problem we had was the guest bedroom has a full size bed instead of the advertised queen. We planned on 2 sleeping in the queen so we had to use the pullout couch instead. Very nice host and beautiful condo!

We had a great stay at this condo. We have stayed at Maravilla before multiple times but it has been a few years since we have been back. The condo was great for our family. The beds were really comfortable including the couch bed our 14 year old slept on. The condo was very clean and everything was very easy. We are already talking about booking again for next year.

Destin Family Vacation 2016

This was my families first time vacationing in Florida and the Gulf area. This condo was perfect for us, it was a beautiful location, very nicely decorated and clean, the kitchen was wonderful, having a washer and dryer was a huge bonus (especially with 2 teenage girls changing clothes constantly), and close to shopping, dining, and just across the road from the beach. We will definitely be coming back here!

Winter getaway

We rented Scenic Solitude for 6 weeks to get away from the cold weather of Illinois. Excellent choice. The place was just as advertised and really nice. With 2 br 2 ba it is the perfect size. We love the location and feel it is at the center of where we wanted to be.. We definitely want to come back next year.

Fantastic, inside and out!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! We’ve been visiting Destin for years and this has been our favorite place to stay thus far! The condo complex is very nicely maintained, is quiet, and is in a great location; just a few steps from the private beach! The unit itself is beautifully decorated, stocked with everything you may need, and was very clean. Most importantly to us was that our dog was welcome! She loved the balcony! There are even a few restaurants within walking distance. And, a fantastic, family-owned, veteran-owned, parasailing company right down the beach as well. Destin has beautiful beaches, emerald waters, fantastic places to eat (we love the Back Porch) and many great golf courses to choose from (our favorite is Kelly Plantation). The owner even took time to message me throughout our stay to ensure that all was going well! We highly recommend staying here; we will definitely be back!

Family Summer Vacation

Donna has done a wonderful job making this condo feel like home. We have stayed in numerous condos on various Florida Beaches. This one was by far the best when it comes to the essentials. She has all the small appliances you would need as well as pots, pans, cooking utensils, and much more. Both beds were extremely comfortable. The TV's and wifi worked great. There was plenty of seating for the whole family. The condo was a little smaller than we're used to yet it was roomy enough to accommodate the 5 of us and our little shihtzu.

About the host

Hosted by Donna Beam

Host profile image
Our family had the pleasure of staying at Maravilla in 2008, our daughter and son-in-law were married in 2016 on Miramar Beach and we finally decided as a family to become owners of our second home at Maravilla. We love the majestic gulf, the sunsets, and the serenity of Miramar Beach and we know that you will love it too.

Why they chose this property

Maravilla Resort Condominiums, 2606 Scenic Gulf Drive, Miramar Beach, Florida, is the most popular family-oriented and dog friendly complex in the Destin area. We have 2.5 acres of private beach, the largest private beach in Miramar. In total it covers 33 acres, is a gated resort, with 24 hour on-site security. It is only a 1-3 minute walk to the beach and from the 27' balcony, off of the living room and master bedroom, you have a view of the Gulf of Mexico with stunning sunsets.
