Area Attractions:

If you are near Miramar Beach, the snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Dolphin Reef, deployed in 2017. Located just 685 feet straight out from the Miramar Regional Public Beach access (by Pompano Joe's), it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Dolphin Reef is at a depth of 12-20 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

A little outdated

The photos are clearly several years (at least) old when the property was first fixed up. It could use some updating and replacing of things for sure. But you just can’t beat the views and the closeness to the PRIVATE beach. Lovely.

Fall vacation at Miramar Beach

We spent 5 nights at this place, right on the beach! Family of 5 and 2 friends. The condo has 3 floors, top floor has the two bedrooms, king bed as stated. Kids room has a bunk bed and a queen, second floor spacious kitchen and living room and the bottom floor We loved the fact that it is separate, so our couple friends slept downstairs and had some privacy also spacious area with a sitting room and bedroom with a mini fridge, sink and coffee station. Place was clean, provided enough pillows, sheets and towels. Washer/dryer on top floor. We enjoyed our stay, we had beautiful weather, enjoyed swimming and watched every surmise and sunsets! Late night board games. Crab hunting at night. We were able to rent beach chairs right in front of the condos! The idea of being right on the beach is what sold us and we would love to do it again next year! It was a blast. Having three decks was so awesome, maybe the owners will look into adding a small barbecue outside I think that would be something they should consider, as we love to cook! All rooms were equipped with tvs, easy internet access…AC worked fine for us, condo is close to many shopping centers in the area. We loved it and if you are not so picky you will love it too besides we spent more time on the beach than inside savoring every minute, every wave, the wind,clean air,white sand… the birds, the fish! Amazing! So thank you for letting us rent your condo & take a vacation with our kids that would be remembered for many years

Great location but outdated

The Sand Trap is a great location and it is right on the beach, but the place is outdated. The bottom floor - which is only accessible from the outside smelled like smoke and didn’t have great a/c. The master baths shower head didn’t work very well so we ended up only using 1 shower the whole time. The sliding door on the main level was so hard to open - only my husband could open and close it. When we arrived all the floors had sand on them like they weren’t even cleaned. We won’t be staying there again.

Family beach time

The access to the beach was awful and with the beach access changes the last couple of years having our own private section of the beach was great! Some small minor issues, a/c stopped working on the lower level, cut customer service had it resolved quickly. Great visit to Destin again!
