This 1-bedroom unit with bunk beds sleeps up to six and features a full kitchen and comfortable living space. Located at SunDestin Beach Resort, guests enjoy access to on-site amenities and a central location near dining, shopping, and family-friendly attractions.



The Space:

Want to be just steps away from the beach on your next vacation? Then look no further than SunDestin Beach Resort in Destin, FL. This property features expansive on-site amenities, including a newly-renovated outdoor pool. Get in a workout at the fitness facility then relax in the outdoor hot tub, sauna, or steam room.

You’ll find plenty of cozy seating in the living room and chairs for six at the dining table.

Enjoy the private balcony, directly overlooking the gulf, or catch a game on one of two large, flat screen televisions.

SunDestin Beach Resort, located in the heart of Destin, is just minutes from a multitude of activities. Take the whole family to a water park or charter a boat and meander about for dolphin sightings. Spend an afternoon parasailing or scuba diving, exploring Destin’s natural and man-made reefs, or take leisurely strolls on the beach.



Guests under 22 must be accompanied by an adult chaperone throughout their  stay. Pets are unfortunately not welcome and are subject to immediate departure if found to be inhabiting a property. Smoking is strictly forbidden.



Please note that La Dolce Vita is the beach service vendor for this property. While beach service rentals are not included in your stay, you can easily contact them directly for all your rental needs.



This fully equipped, family friendly unit has everything you need for your perfect getaway!



***Please note: As part of an exciting resort enhancement project, some amenities at SunDestin Beach Resort remain under construction, including the restaurant, outdoor pools, steam room, and spa. Please note that the splash pad is currently not operable and will remain closed until further notice while ownership determines future plans for the area. The fitness center remains open for guest use during this time.



Guests may continue to enjoy beach access via the ADA-accessible pathway located around the side of the building. Please also note that there is currently a temporary detour in place for lobby access as enhancement work continues in select areas of the resort.



While construction activity is still present on-site, it is now far less invasive than it has been previously as the project enters its final stages and crews continue winding down operations. We are thoughtfully welcoming reservations while setting clear expectations in advance to help ensure a comfortable and positive stay during this improvement phase.



These enhancements are designed to elevate the guest experience for years to come, and we look forward to welcoming guests to a beautifully refreshed SunDestin Beach Resort—one that reflects the level of care, comfort, and coastal hospitality our owners and guests expect.

Stayed in a few places on the Emerald Coast and they have all been similar. This one is typical. The staff was super friendly and the view was fantastic. FYI that pic of the sofa is old but they have a new sofa (as of March 2026) in there so your toosh won't sink in :) Good value for money and locaton.

Great Beachfront Condo

There weren't a lot of reviews for this property when we booked, but we were more than pleased with the experience. The apartment was great. It was clean and modern--didn't feel outdated at all. The balcony view overlooking the beach was beautiful. While there were some elevator issues at the condo, our overall experience was great and we highly recommend this rental.

Needs Improvements/Updates

This unit needs some major updates. The pillows on the couch and the coach were stained. It was so bad that we did not use them or touch them with our bare hands. There was a musty odor that was constant in the room. The view is beautiful and we did enjoy it as well as the location, on the beach, of the resort. We were there for a wedding, so we didn\'t have to spend too much time inside.

Not what we booked

Overall the location was perfect however, very disappointed that I was not informed until already on my way about the renovations happening. When I booked this place it did not mention that the outdoor pool and hot tub were not working along with the noisy construction. My room was not very clean and I did not have a working dishwasher, vacuum and no dust pan. This made for a sandy mess. Also had construction workers smoking on the balcony below me to where I could not sit on my balcony and enjoy the view. I understand renovations need to happen, would have been nice to know before booking.

Great Price, Great People, Great Stay!

I loved our stay! The price for a late-June condo ON THE BEACH was awesome! The furniture in our particular condo was slightly dated but that didn’t matter to us a bit. My kids also now think regular beds are awful and bunk beds are the ONLY way to sleep, so now I know they loved those. The only thing I could say is something that is unpreventable and I remember telling my husband that I don’t know how they clean the sand out as much as they could. You guys did amazing and I’m sure we all know sand is impossible to get out. There was also a chair in the dining area that was loose but we placed a throw pillow there so our kids knew not to sit on it.Having a small restaurant in the lobby was fabulous because the night we got there we didn’t want to go anywhere or cook anything. And my husband loved the little shop because he could get ice instead of driving to a gas station or convenience store. The staff was so friendly and made everything so easy. There were several families checking in at the same time as us but they still had smiles on their faces and were so pleasant. Concierge was also so helpful when I needed to know where to rent chairs, where to find little things, etc. and they were so attentive! Thank y’all for an awesome stay!

Great location, very loud construction.

We went a day early and stayed the first night in a hotel, that whole day before and the day of check in we tried messaging our host and never received an answer. We even tried requesting our check in date be moved back a day earlier a week in advance with no answer. I never received check in instructions, after 2 phone calls I reached a front desk who told me to just come there, while I still never received an email, chat back or phone call back about checking in. Also there was an overwhelming about of construction happening our whole stay, back of the building, front of the building and inside the building. We tried drinking coffee on our balcony watching the beach around 8:15 a.m. and couldn’t for the sound of hammer drills below us, above us and beside us. Also it would wake the kids up every morning to the sound of loud hammer drills. The room we stayed in was also not in great shape, very unclean. Also the dishwasher never worked so we had to hand wash all dishes.
