Sleeps 8, 2 Resort Studios | Pool, Shuttle, Tennis, Near Baytowne & Beach

Elation 5316 & 5318: two studio condos at Sandestin sleeping 8, with resort pools, a beach tram & a short walk to Baytowne Wharf.

Two studio-style condos sitting just steps apart inside Sandestin Golf & Beach Resort, Elation 5316 and 5318 hand a group of eight the best of both worlds — shared time when you want it and a door to close when you don't. Between the pair you get four queen beds, two kitchenettes, and two full bathrooms, which makes booking both an easy fit for two families, a group of friends, or a couple of couples splitting a Gulf Coast week.

Reserve the two together and you settle into the Elation building, tucked along the bayside of the resort within an easy walk of the Village of Baytowne Wharf. Unit 5316 keeps two queen beds, a bathroom with a shower-tub combo, and a calm outlook over the gardens and pond — the kind of quiet view that makes early coffee feel unhurried. A compact kitchenette handles quick breakfasts and beach snacks, and the pool and hot tub are a short stroll from the door.

Unit 5318 mirrors it with two more queens, a full bathroom, and a kitchenette, plus a small table that works just as well for a card game as a laptop. A Juliet balcony lets the coastal breeze and morning light move through the room — not a sit-out space, but a welcome bit of air and a glimpse of the grounds — and a TV rounds things out for winding down after a full day.

The real draw is everything just past the door. As guests, you have access to the resort's pools and hot tub, tennis courts, spa, and fitness center, plus a complimentary tram that loops the property and runs you over to the sugar-white sand of the private Gulf beach in minutes. The Village of Baytowne Wharf is a short walk away, where shops, restaurants, and live music fill the evenings, and the on-site marina sets you up for kayaking, paddleboarding, fishing charters, or a dolphin cruise on the bay.

Beyond the gates, you're in the heart of Miramar Beach and minutes from Destin, the self-styled "world's luckiest fishing village," known for emerald water, deep-sea fishing, and a run of well-kept golf courses. Ziplines, dolphin tours, and family attractions are all close by, and downtown Corpus Christi's aquarium and waterfront make for an easy day trip when you want a change from the sand. It's a relaxed, low-key base with the whole resort at your feet — room to gather, room to breathe, and the beach never far off.
