About this property
Spectacular views of the Gulf and Emerald coast - 16th floor
NON SMOKING/VAPING ROOM - A $1,000 cleaning fee will be charged for smoking/vaping in the room or the BALCONY too!!!
The condo pictured is our 16th floor incredible gulf and and city view from our living room and every room in the condo. Freshly updated with a new suite of stainless steel kitchen appliances, new luxury vinyl plank flooring in the master bedroom, renovated shower with glass doors, additional new furniture and a 65" Smart TV in the living room in November 2022. The balcony has a walkout from both the bedroom and the living room. This is the more spacious 1 bedroom unit in the complex that does not have the AC unit on the balcony so all you hear is the waves breaking on the shore. It features a king size bed along with floor to ceiling sliding glass doors connecting to the balcony, overlooking the west gulf view of miles of beautiful beach, the City of Destin, Destin Harbor, Crab Island, and the Destin bridge.
The unit is ablaze at night with the beautiful lights of the city and the beauty and sounds of the surf at the same time! Watch the dolphins frolic in the surf from inside your condo and still enjoy the allure of the city lights at night.
"On the Beach" and is centrally located in the heart of beautiful downtown Destin. Within a few block you will find amusement parks, restaurants, fast food, fine dining, and everything in between. Great night life, countless malls and some of Destin's most famous restaurants are only 1 to 10 minutes away.
Watch the harbor fireworks from your living room, balcony, or bedroom, when available, unsurpassed views of the breath-taking Gulf of Mexico and fantastic sunsets at the beach or directly from the16th floor.
Sundestin Beach Resort provides all of the creature comforts one would expects while vacationing in one of Florida's great resorts.
The unit features 2 flat screen smart tvs, a walk-out floor to ceiling glass balcony from the living room as well as the bedroom, a comfortable queen size sleeper sofa, 2 separate 1/2 baths that adjoin a separate full size shower/tub with glass doors in a separate room. The kitchen features granite counter tops, stainless steel appliances and a fully equipped kitchen with both a drip and K-cup style coffee maker. The window view from the kitchen is the eastern view of the beautiful city of Destin, the Choctawhatchee Bay, and the Mid-Bay bridge. For those who also need to stay in touch with work, a desk and a 27" computer monitor is also available in the unit for use with your laptop. Camp chairs for the beach, beach bags and coolers are there and ready for your use.

About the host
Hosted by Kirk Heaton

Thanks for looking at Sundestin 1617. We're excited to be able to share our our very special property with you. We take great pride in the condition and the amenities in the unit and hope you enjoy it and will work with us to keep it in great condition for you and all our other valued guests.

Why they chose this property
Spectacular 16th floor penthouse like view of the beach, coastline and evening city lights from the living room and master bedroom. Kitchen window looks out across Destin to the bay. Why not be able to lay in bed and watch and listen to the waves. If you're going to stay at the beach, why not be able to see the beach from all the rooms in the unit?
What makes this property unique
Very well cared for and nicely updated unit. We personally use this unit often and are very happy to share this special place with our guests. The unit has been extensively remodeled and very tastefully decorated and will make a great home away from home during your stay in Destin.
Enjoy!
Enjoy!
