About this property

NEW Home SPECIAL! Unique location & home! Beach!2 Pools, Mooring, top rated host

Welcome to our newest, architect-designed waterfront home. And while it's our newest home, we are the same owners that have been the highest reviewed on Navarre Beach for almost a decade. Our waterfront home, Sea Diamond, resides nestled up to 100+ acres of nature preserve with nothing but dunes, beach and water. Generous decks and two pools face the dunes and water with our private beach. Luxurious glass railings wrap the decks so nothing impedes your sunrise or sunset views. Take your morning coffee to the adjacent beach and walk as far as you like. Odds are you'll see nobody else! Only a handful of people ever use the land because you have to walk through the dunes to get to the water from the public street. Did you bring your jet ski or shallow draft boat? We have a mooring in front of the house where you can tie up for the week. No need to put in or take out your boat each day. That's what makes this property completely unique. And the privacy - No neighbors to the north or the east.

The elevated deck has two swimming pools. This is the only home on Navarre Beach with two pools. One for adults and one for the kids? Up to you! And because it's elevated, it's sand free! The chef's kitchen opens to the pool deck and outdoor dining and ease of grabbing a snack or cold drink anytime. The 1000+sq ft great room has soaring windows and massive sliding doors to the north deck and the pool deck, wet bar, huge winding cloud sofa and custom dining. Enjoy the stunning collection of underwater photos taken by the owner.

One king bedroom with beautiful canopy bed and en suite bathroom with walk in tiled shower is on the main floor of the home and over sized sliding glass doors open to access the pool deck or the front south side hot tub! (Note-Hot tub is scheduled to arrive by July 1st so it may not be available for guests before that date). Enjoy perfect views over the dunes and sound right from your pillow topped, canopy bed.

Even walking upstairs is an experience, with that stair risers are tiled to match the kitchen. On the landing, stop to enjoy the unique art from around the globe. For 30 years, we have been in the hospitality and travel business as international tour directors and scuba diving instructors. The art in our home reflects those world travels.

Two king bedrooms are on the top floor with spectacular views, luxury canopy beds and gorgeous en suite bathrooms with walk in tiled showers. Both have sliders that open to an upper deck with a large comfy day bed for an afternoon book or a nap with a view!

The colorful bunk area sleeps 6 in XL twin bunks so can be used by kids or adults. Dr. Seuss could have decorated in here!

The Grand Suite is completely unique and over 1000 sq feet with large walk-in closet. The sexy 63 sq ft shower with oversized rain head and two shower towers is the envy of every person who has walked into the suite. Contractors took photos as we were building it and sent everyone to go look. Next to the shower is a gorgeous free standing tub looking toward the glass wall out to the sound. The king bed under canopy and massive chandelier looks out through six huge windows and a towering 16' wall of glass to the sound. Electric blinds let you open and close at a touch of a button. There is a private deck outside the Grand Suite.

And of course, there is an elevator for ease of access to all floors of the home.

The feel of being in the home is as if you are the only ones on the whole island. Since this is our primary home, we only open it to guests for 12 weeks in the summer.

What a beautiful home and property! After a stressful last-minute leak at our original rental, Carin stepped in and accommodated us flawlessly. Honestly, we only wish we had booked this home for our entire stay.The location is unbeatable—situated right on the Intracoastal Waterway for easy kayaking and paddleboarding, and just a super short walk to the beach. Inside, the house was immaculate and beautifully decorated with unique items and photos from the owners' global travels.The layout was perfect for our family. The kids loved the colorful bunk beds, and the adults fully enjoyed the incredible master shower and tub (though every single bedroom boasts a fantastic massage panel shower!). The two pools right off the family room were a massive highlight, allowing us to easily keep an eye on the kids swimming while we cooked or relaxed in the living room.Carin is an outstanding host, and we will absolutely be coming back. Thank you for sharing your incredible home with us!

About the host

Hosted by Carin & Ridlon Kiphart, The Adventure Couple

Host profile image
As The Adventure Couple, we have over 40 years experience in the luxury hotel industry and wanted to create a beach home with the look and feel of the 5-Star boutique beach resorts we have stayed at over the years. We wanted to have a home on one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. Every year, we travel and guide people to the most exotic places in the world but always look forward to coming back to our beach home.

Why they chose this property

We've always wanted to design and build our own luxury custom beach home. This house isn't a "vacation rental." It's our home that we love sharing with other special people. It's not designed, built or decorated like a "vacation rental." It's designed and furnished like our personal home because it is. We live in it most of the year.

On this special island with some of the most beautiful beaches in the world, we carefully chose a location to build our home because not all home sites are equal. We wanted water views from every room in the house and access to both the Gulf and Sound. We wanted to be in a quiet location without crowds or traffic passing in front of the house. The home is crafted to take advantage of the soundside beach and 100 acres of dunes. This home is waterfront on the southside of Navarre Beach. We love living on the sound because at night you see the twinkling lights across the water, you can watch the barges go by and in the summer, the sunsets are perfect! Waterfront on the Gulf of Mexico at night is simply black and in the summer the sun does not set over the Gulf.

What makes this property unique

We designed and built this home ourselves with stunning views looking out from massive walls of glass over 100 acres of dunes and water. The 1000 square foot great room looks out to the 2 elevated pools and large deck. You can keep an eye on the kids in the pool from a sun lounger, the kitchen or from the comfort of the air conditioned great room, a game changer! In July, 2026 the hot tub will be added. A comfy day bed on the top floor is a perfect place to read overlooking the pool deck. The sun sets over the sound in the summertime, so this is the perfect place to watch it!
