About this property

Steps to the Beach! Water-Taxi to Destin Harbor! 5 Star Property!

BEACH SERVICE PROVIDED FOR TWO!
Relax and enjoy coastal living at this beautifully furnished, well equipped studio with full bath and kitchen. Sandpiper Cove is a gated community that offers five swimming pools, hot tubs, tennis court, pitch and play golf, pickle ball court and a 5 star restaurant (Louisiana Lagniappe) located onsite! Water taxi over to Destin Harbor and enjoy beautiful sunsets, fantastic restaurants and fun things for the kids. We are steps to the beach (5 minutes) and have a great beach bar during season for great food and drinks! We have the best of both worlds. My studio sleeps four comfortably with a queen bed along with a queen size sofa bed for kids and family. More Info, reviews and pics are also available at Ecbyo.com/7268.

Amazing stay!

The condo was just as described. The beach set up was a nice feature. Only took about 5 minutes to get to the beach and one of the pools was right outside our unit. Thanks for being a great host!

Sandpiper Condo

Access to harbor and beach ! Nice pools, more family oriented. Place decorated very nicely. Comfy bed. Only recommendation is a washer/dryer or at least hangers in the closet to help with all the wet towels. There was a lot of hooks which were handy.
