About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire condo to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Gulf-front on beach with beach service inc.- Look for flash sales & quick trips!

This condo has an ultra-private lanai overlooking our private beach and Gulf of Mexico--each photo has been taken from the actual unit you'd be renting, #408. This beachfront is one of the nicest, widest fine-sand beaches in all of Destin and the pool and sauna are always perfectly heated.

The nightly rate includes free daily reserved beach chair/umbrella service March 1-Oct. 31, 2025 only (management is eliminating prepaid beach service as of 1/1/26 when there will be daily/weekly rates only, paid by each guest.) The nightly rate will always include all occupancy, amenity usage and parking fees (all paid by the owner and included in your nightly rate--no hidden fees upon arrival). Sterling Sands is not only directly on the Gulf of Mexico, we are known for our beautiful, nicely heated pool and sauna overlooking the Gulf of Mexico.

King bed in primary bedroom with bunk beds in second bedroom, all ceramic tile and carpeting in the bedrooms. Fully equipped kitchen with granite counter-tops and stainless steel appliances and full bathrooms with tubs, a Jacuzzi & granite sink-tops.

There are 3 large flat screen TV's, and the LR has a sleeper couch that has an awesome thick mattress when pulled out (it's a Cozy Mattress®), which allows for comfortable sleeping quarters for up to 4 adults or children in total. Open-style breezeway halls and 2 elevators and stairs if you prefer.

Watch dolphins on the comfortable, easy to move around lanai furniture (can even put portable table on Lanai for breakfast!) from this beautiful 4th floor perspective-not too high so you can't see the beach, not too low so people can see in. There is a fitness center and the pool is heated to 87 degrees year-round. You can have family gatherings using the gas grills provided by the building in the gazebo or just enjoy the widest, powder-soft sand beach Destin has to offer.

When you compare our 380 feet of beach and 110 unit building to others, you'll see you get much more beach for your own quiet enjoyment than anywhere else.

Absolutely no pets of any size, sorry. Also, "no emotional support animals". With advanced documentation we happily accept "service dogs", which I can clear with management ahead of time.

I've arranged for professional cleaning by a local company and please keep in mind this is a private condo building and not a hotel---there is no room service, additional towels, or bell-hop.

Prices and minimum nights' stay requirements are subject to change for future dates, prior to a firm reservation. Once your reservation is in place, nothing changes and your reservation is secure. If you have specific dates in mind please don't hesitate to use the "instant book" feature on this website so your dates don't get shut out.

Max Occupancy: 4 Humans (meaning, 4 adults OR children/babies, as per fire code) Please note: There is absolutely no way to add any more guests than 4 humans in total; there is a physical check-in process, security, and resort wristbands required (all included in the room rate) and you will forfeit your payments if you attempt to have more than 4 guests.

Parking is off street, free and more than ample with 240 spaces!

Beautiful Fall Break

We really enjoyed the property and the location to fun activities. It was so nice having the beach chairs and umbrella available to us. The boys (age 9) loved the pool and the bunk beds. We like the convenience to The Track and other arcades. We will be back.

Very nice condo

The condo and entire property was just as nice as the listing indicated. Liz was a wonderful host and very responsive. One suggestion would be to invest in some blackout blinds in the kid’s bedroom similar to what is in the master bedroom. There was so much light coming in at night.

Beautiful Getaway!

So beautiful! I traveled with my mom and husband for a birthday getaway. It’s my first time using Vrbo and was a bit nervous but everything was way better than expected, comfortable, and very clean. Liz was very attentive and responded promptly to any question I had. I especially loved how I did not need to worry about any “hidden fees”. My vacation started as soon as I arrived, no hassle. The view to the beach was beautiful. We were also able to see both, sunrise and sunset, from the lanai which was a good surprise. I will definitely be back, thank you Liz for everything.

Spacious Condo - Pleasant Stay

First time to Destin and we enjoyed it! Liz's condo looked exactly like it did in the photos. Our kids enjoyed the bunk beds and we loved having two bedrooms. The in-unit washer and dryer was a huge lifesaver. Make sure to bring trash bags, kitchen towels, wash rags, etc.
