This palatial four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath penthouse is the crown jewel of Ariel Dunes I. Spanning over 2,200 square feet, Peace + Serenity By The Sea comfortably hosts up to 12 guests, making it ideal for multigenerational gatherings or celebrations in style.
From the moment you enter Ariel Dunes I Penthouse 2402, the Gulf takes center stage—thanks to floor-to-ceiling balcony doors that flood the open-concept living space with coastal light and panoramic views. The interior is vibrant yet refined, blending contemporary comfort with artistic coastal flair.
Outside, the private 24th-floor balcony invites al fresco dining with a view that stretches from beach to horizon. With multiple bedrooms (including a spa-inspired primary suite), a bunk room just for the kids, and elegant lounge spaces, this condo delivers on every level.
And with access to Ariel Dunes I's two expansive pools, onsite dining at Cabana Café, and the full suite of Seascape Resort amenities, the indulgence continues long after you step outside.
We enjoyed a long weekend with a local concert as the highlight. Our penthouse was a roomy, comfortable home while we enjoyed the beach, shopping and night life of the area. An excellent accommodation!
