About this property

Dog-friendly, 2 bed/2ba with beach service for 4, Miramar Beach, FL by Destin

2 king size bedrooms suites w/2 full bathrooms and sofa bed in wonderful Miramar Beach-Destin, FL. This 3rd floor condo is two doors from the elevator, tucked away in a quiet corner (no one walking by bedroom windows!), It is just a few yards away from the beautiful white sands and clear blue waters of the gulf coast! Come enjoy the many amenities of the Maravilla Resort Community, which offers two swimming pools (one near the beach, the other heated year around) a hot tub, fitness center, tennis/pickle ball courts, BBQ grilling areas, and plenty of green space for pets. Walk to several shops and restaurants, including local favorites like Pompano Joe's, Kenny D's and Captain Dave's on the gulf within a mile you also have Surf Hut, Crab Trap and Whale's Tail. Outlet shopping is just a few minutes away and there is a plethora of family friendly fun to be found in the area!
Since becoming owners in 2020 both the unit and the resort have seen updates, with major exterior renovations in 2025. Take advantage of the updates we have completed inside. We have added new furniture in both bedrooms, new ceilings, (goodbye popcorn) a new tiled walk-in shower in the main bedroom, and new tiled bath/shower combo in shared bath. There is new flooring throughout, a stackable washer and dryer, and a full kitchen with every tool you need to whip up a meal. We offer a single-cup, keurig-style coffee maker and a traditional coffee maker as we realize everyone has a preference! There is a dining table that seats 6, king beds in both the main and the guest room, full bathrooms attached to each bedroom, and a living room with a sleeper sofa/loveseat combo, and a twin bed foldout chair that would be suitable for a small child.
Smell the ocean air and a side view of the water while enjoying the over-sized balcony, accessible via both the main bedroom and living room. Flexcation capable with free high-speed WiFi, an office desk and chair in the guest room, 3 smart TV's and DirectTV service included. The beach area for Maravilla is deeded private, which greatly reduces crowds. It is rare you are disturbed by another guests' loud music and no tents are allowed in front of the beach service chairs! No getting up early to reserve a great spot or hauling chairs to the beach as seasonal beach service for 4 is also complimentary! This means you get two umbrellas and four chairs set up for you daily! (Typically available Mar-Oct) Our hallway closet has an assortment of beach toys that you are free to use and return for the next guests.
When we say we would love for you and your family to stay with us, we mean your tail-waggers too! We welcome all size dogs, as long as they are friendly, not allowed on furniture/bedding, and crated when alone in the unit if chewers or not housebroken. Please know that deposits will absolutely not be returned if there is pet damage or excessive fur is found on furniture and linens that requires added cleaning. If your dog creates a noise disturbance while you are away, or you are caught not picking up after your dog, you could be fined by the community. Please keep this in mind before traveling with Fido! Dogs are not allowed on the beach, unless you have a resident license per Walton County and then only on public beaches.
Please notify us if you intend to travel with your dog or dogs and ask us any questions if you are unsure. Unfortunately, certain breeds are prohibited due to insurance restrictions. This includes, but is not limited to, any purebred or mixed-breed American Pit Bull, American Staffordshire Terrier, Chow, Husky, Doberman, Akita, German Shepherd, Malamute, Presa Canario, Rottweiler or wolf. :(

Wonderful Stay!

I highly recommend staying here! The unit was really clean and had all the essentials. Heather is a great hostess and was quick to respond to any questions I had. The beds were really comfortable! The best part is being just across from the private beach and having chairs already set up for you. I’m already looking to book again next year!

Beautiful property

This unit is beautiful and comfortable. We had two couples and two kiddos and it was the perfect size. Adults had the bedrooms, kids slept in the living room. It is a quick walk to the beach and having the four beach chairs with umbrellas provided was a life saver for a July stay. Communication with the owners was super easy. Door and gate codes were a breeze. The unit was very clean. Basically everything you would want when staying in a new place.

Don't Hesitate

We absolutely loved our stay. The location was perfect as it is just a short walk across the crosswalk to the beach. We checked in every morning on the beach and was led to our complimentary chairs and umbrellas. It could not have been any better. The space was clean and comfortable. So many beach toys, chairs, and amenities were there for us. We purchased a few more and left to pass along to the next family. The hosts went out of their way to show us kindness after an unforseen issue to start our trip. We will definitely be planning a future stay!

Amazing location and pet friendly

We had a great stay here. The owners gave great instructions and were incredibly responsive and pleasant. The condo is located on the end so very quiet. This is a fantastic complex if you have fur babies - tons of good space to walk, large pet area, and right off the elevator. The beach is just steps away and we had excellent beach service (included, seasonal) with chairs and a friendly staff. Short walk to two great restaurants and a short drive to shopping and several other restaurants and shopping. The condo is very comfortably furnished and the large balcony is great for hanging out, as well as two pools with a hot tub. I used this for a flex-cation and had great internet connection. Highly recommend and I’ll definitely be back!

Excellent Experience!

This owner took the time to think out so many things that are problematic when you rent. There were convenient notes all over condo documenting things like which remote to use for what and convenient hooks in the bathroom. While it was the older bones of a condo all the finishings were upscale and well thought out! Cute, comfy, lots of space, convenient to pool and beach, lots of well thought out extras!

About the host

Hosted by Heather and Stuart Martin

Host profile image
A beach place of our own has always been a dream. That dream included a place we could enjoy with every member of the family, including our dogs. We wanted a place that was at a beach with beautiful, carribbean-like sand and water, yet less congested, and without the spring break party vibe. We found it at Maravilla in Miramar Beach. It is now a favorite spot for our entire family to spend time together. For guests and family members seeking a little bigger crowd and maybe something a little livelier, Pompano Joe's is a short walk down the beach, and Crab Island is a short drive. We just love our low-density community which is nestled between Destin and Sandestin, either just minutes away. It's the ideal location in the panhandle. We think you will feel the same and can't wait for you to experience it for yourself.

Why they chose this property

This special property is located in a convenient and highly desirable, low-density community that is part of Miramar Beach/Destin. There is plenty of activity to be found, but it is far quieter than many of the most popular panhandle locations nearby like Okaloosa Island (15 minutes) and Panama City Beach(50 minutes).

What makes this property unique

Dog-friendly, low-density community, oceanfront pool, beach service for 4 during the season, 33 acres of green space, private beach access, heated pool, hot tub, fitness center, bike path, amenities galore and LOTS to do in the area like parasailing, jet skis, paddle-boarding, kayaking, deep sea fishing, sea planes, golf courses, mini golf and adventure centers, waterparks, Destin's gulfarium, gator feeding at Fuddpuckers, outlet shopping, seriously good places to eat, and more...
