Jewel in the Sand Professionally Managed by Newman-Dailey Jewel in the Sand is not simply a beachfront Destin vacation home- its a venue! A very small percentage of vacation rentals shine as brightly as this eight bedroom mansion. She's always had the right DNA to special- a private pool with a grilling area, lounge chairs and a boardwalk to the beach; open gathering/entertainment areas on each of the four floors; four beachfront balconies and a large reception-ready kitchen hedged by two dining rooms- one with beach views and one for formal dining. Yet now, this gem of a rental sparkles even more brilliantly thanks to recent renovations. Definitely on trend, it exudes a ‘light and bright’ feel marked by glossy modern art, white shiplap walls and stunning grey marble counters throughout. Each space boasts high-end furnishings and coastal modern decor- from the many sitting areas to the individual bedrooms- every nook is welcoming. While several of the en-suite rooms would classify as master suites in any house, the fourth floor master suite is larger than many apartments. It’s bathroom alone has megawatts of 'wow'. Yes, Jewel in the Sand’s attention to detail is obvious in the custom tile finishes, gold hardware and even the refurbished ceilings. Every substantial house needs certain necessities to host large groups and Jewel in the Sand is not lacking. A full laundry room, kitchenettes on multiple floors and flat screen TVS in each room raise the comfort level to new highs. Plus, don’t let its secluded location in The Dunes of Destin or its beachfront location fool you- malls, water parks, golf courses and grocery stores are very close by and a few restaurants are within walking distance.
