Leeward Key Condos

2936 Hwy 2378, Miramar Beach, FL 32550, Destin, United States

3-star hotel

Guest rating: 4.7 / 5

Overview

Leeward Key Condos is a 12-floor beachfront condominium building in Miramar Beach, part of the greater Destin area of Florida's Gulf Coast. Rated 3 stars with a strong 4.7-out-of-5 guest score from 60 reviews, it operates as a vacation condo rental property rather than a traditional hotel. Units are individually furnished ocean-front condos, with many featuring private balconies overlooking the Gulf.

Rooms & Units

Guest accounts describe ocean-front balconies as a standard feature across the building, with higher floors and corner units offering especially wide views of the Gulf of Mexico. Condos are generally kept clean, though some travelers have noted maintenance issues such as a leaking sink and squeaky, less comfortable beds in individual units. Because the property is a condo rental, furnishings and amenities such as beach chairs and umbrellas can vary by individual unit owner.

Amenities & Recreation

The building's main pool sits across the street directly on the beach, allowing guests to position poolside chairs at the railing for ocean views even without stepping onto the sand. Fast, low-wait elevators serve the 12 floors, and the property includes a private parking lot behind the building. Some individual condos supply beach chairs and an umbrella for the length of a stay, though this is arranged per unit rather than guaranteed building-wide.

Location

Leeward Key sits on Miramar Beach, within about 100 feet of private beach access described by guests as powder-white sand and emerald-green water. James Lee Park and James Lee Beach are both roughly 1.2-1.8 km away, and Emerald Bay Golf Club is just over a kilometer from the property. Guests are within walking distance of three restaurants, with additional outdoor malls, grocery stores, and dining options a few miles away, plus attractions such as Henderson Beach State Park, HarborWalk Village, Destin Harbor Boardwalk, and Crab Island within an 11-12 km radius.

Best for

Leeward Key suits repeat beach vacationers and couples or families seeking an ocean-front condo stay, given its near-beach access, ocean-view balconies, and beachfront pool. It's also a good fit for golfers, thanks to Emerald Bay Golf Club just over a kilometer away and Burnt Pine Golf Club within reach, as well as travelers who want walkable dining without needing a car for every meal.

Travel tips

Having a car is useful for reaching farther attractions like HarborWalk Village, Destin Harbor Boardwalk, Crab Island, and Topsail Hill Preserve State Park, all roughly 10-12 km away, though three restaurants are within walking distance. Because units are individually owned, it's worth confirming directly with your specific condo whether beach chairs, an umbrella, and other extras are included before arrival. Ask for a higher floor or corner unit if ocean views are a priority, and use the private parking lot behind the building rather than searching for street parking.

What guests say

Reviewers consistently highlight the property's prime location just steps from private beach access and the beachfront pool, along with clean condos, fast elevators, and appealing ocean-front balcony views, particularly from higher and corner units. Repeat visitors describe strong loyalty to the property and a desire to return. On the negative side, a few guests noted in-unit maintenance issues, including a leaking sink and uncomfortable, squeaky beds, suggesting some inconsistency in condition between individual condos. Overall sentiment remains strongly positive, driven mainly by location and views rather than uniform unit quality.
