Avail: 11/23-Dec. 1! 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 all occupancy, daily amenity usage wristbands and parking fees (all paid by the owner and included in your nightly rate--no hidden fees upon arrival). Sterling Sands is located directly on the Gulf of Mexico, and also 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 a variety of 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. As a convenience, we have a beach service company hut where you can privately arrange a la carte daily or weekly beach service which includes chairs/umbrella set up for you from March 1 - Oct. 31 each year. This service is separately arranged between you the guest, and Sun, Sand & Beach Service, Ins. 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 the street, included in the rate of this booking, and more than ample with 240 spaces. ## Property amenities ### Beach - On the beach ### Pool/Spa - Communal pool - Fenced private pool - Heated pool - Hot tub - Outdoor pool ### Internet - Available in the condo: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Car not required - Wheelchair-accessible parking and van parking available ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Ice maker - Kitchen island - Lobster/crab pot - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Hair dryer - Jetted bathtub - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - DVD player - Smart TV with cable/satellite channels ### Outdoor areas - Balcony - Fenced yard - Garden - Gas grill - Outdoor furniture ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - 8 accessible parking spaces - Elevator - Wheelchair accessibility - Wheelchair-accessible parking - Wheelchair-accessible path of travel - Wheelchair-accessible van parking - Smoking not allowed - Note from host: No smoking on balcony either, as per building rule ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board - Meal delivery service ### Location highlights - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital - Near a zoo - Near an outlet shopping mall - Near the bay - Near the marina - Near the ocean - On the waterfront ### Things to do - Gym - Heated pool - Water park - Birdwatching nearby - Cycling nearby - Ecotours nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Parasailing nearby - Sailing nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Snorkeling nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Theme park nearby - Water skiing nearby - Water tubing nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Windsurfing nearby - Winery tours nearby ### Safety features - No carbon monoxide detector or gas appliances (host has indicated there are no carbon monoxide detectors or gas appliances on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Double-glazed windows - Garden - Property located in a resort - Unit size: 900 square feet ## Similar properties ![Private beach, white sand, scuba diving, beach volleyball](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/1000000/920000/910100/910025/d0346184.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### SunDestin Beach Resort Destin - Pool - Hot tub - Kitchen - Washer 8.2 Very good 2,018 reviews CA $303 CA $418 total includes taxes & fees Nov 11 - Nov 12 [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-11&endDate=2025-11-12&selected=910025&PinnedHotelID=910025&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![On the beach, sun loungers](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/27000000/26500000/26491300/26491234/67fa4078.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Pelican Beach Resort BEACH FRONT Penthouse Destin - Ocean view - Pool - Hot tub - Kitchen 9.8 Exceptional 277 reviews [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-11-24&endDate=2025-11-25&selected=26491234&PinnedHotelID=26491234&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![On the beach](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/28000000/27180000/27173000/27172903/7886774a.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### GULF FRONT with Amazing Views, 3 Pools,Tiki Bar!
