Coastal condo in a great location with balcony, open interior, washer & dryer & AC
Overview
Seaside Sanctuary is a coastal condo in Destin offering a bright, updated interior with an open living and kitchen layout. The unit is smoke-free and centrally air-conditioned, making it a comfortable home-base for a Gulf Coast getaway. It operates under permit CND5603847, indicating a licensed short-term rental in the area.
Interior & Comfort
The living room centers on a comfortable sofa and TV for relaxing after a day at the beach, while bedrooms come with quality linens and private TVs. A private washer and dryer, plus a full kitchen with oven, stove, and microwave, let guests handle laundry and meals without leaving the unit. Cable TV and free Wi-Fi are included throughout.
Outdoor Space
A private balcony rounds out the condo, giving guests a spot to catch coastal air and views without leaving the unit.
Location & Surroundings
The condo sits within walking distance of two beaches, the closest (O'Steen Beach) just a three-minute walk away, and Harbor Walk is reachable via a seasonal local water taxi. Multiple bus stations -- including Gulf Breeze Ct, East Pass Towers, and Destin Pointe/Jetty East -- sit within a few hundred meters, and dining options like The Edge Seafood Restaurant & SkyBar, The Harbor Tavern, FATBOYS, Nonna's Ristorante, McGuire's Irish Pub, and Tailfins Waterfront Grill are all within roughly a kilometer. Destin-Fort Walton Beach Airport is about 11km away, and Target and Walgreens are a five-minute drive for essentials.
Best for
This condo suits beach-focused leisure travelers and small families thanks to its walk-to-the-sand location, in-unit kitchen and washer/dryer, and free parking. It also works for groups wanting a self-catering stay near a concentrated strip of seafood restaurants, bars, and casual dining within a kilometer.
Travel tips
Several bus stations (Gulf Breeze Ct, East Pass Towers, Destin Pointe/Jetty East) are within a few hundred meters, useful for getting around without a car, and free parking is also available on-site. Time a visit to use the seasonal water taxi to Harbor Walk, since that service doesn't run year-round. Destin-Fort Walton Beach Airport is the closest airport at roughly 11km, making it the most convenient arrival point versus the more distant Pensacola or Northwest Florida Beaches airports.
What guests say
Guest feedback is mixed. Positive mentions center on the property's location and cleanliness, with some guests praising both and expressing interest in returning. Other reviewers reported significant issues, including an unpleasant odor and stained sofa, unclear or missing appliance instructions for the washer/dryer and TVs, broken items such as a dining chair and garage door handle, unclean kitchen surfaces, a noisy dog in the unit above, and undisclosed nearby construction that limited beach access.
