Silver Shells

Silver Shells is an exclusively gated beachfront resort that spreads across thirty acres of lushly landscaped grounds in the center of Destin. It includes six luxury condominiums known as St. Thomas, St. Croix, St. Maarten, St. Barth, St. Lucia, and St. Kitts. The luxury residential towers of St. Thomas, St. Barth, and St. Kitts are restricted to owner use only. However, the other three buildings are highly prized vacation rental destinations. All of them are lavishly furnished and feature breezy balconies with incredible views from the open concept living areas.

St. Maarten is one of the Silver Shells original flagship luxury towers with an outstanding position beside the glowing jewel-toned gulf. Stunning southwesterly views provide heavenly sunset vistas. This tower includes spacious two and three-bedroom units ranging from 1,500 to 2,000 square feet.

St. Croix also has a premier position overlooking the massive tropically landscaped lagoon pool with views directly into the southerly gulf. The tower includes two-bedroom units with 1,250 square feet and three bedrooms residences encompassing over 1,675 square feet.

St. Lucia sits near the gated entry into Silver Shells but still features glittering views of the gulf in the distance above a forest of tropical palm trees. Condos include two and three-bedroom units ranging from 1,300 to over 1,650 square feet.

All residential buildings are served by a massive 7,500-square-foot swimming pool that resembles a lovely lagoon. It includes an expansive sun patio adorned with islands of palms, a tranquil waterfall, and a soothing hot tub for relaxation. This lush tropical oasis beside the beautiful beach also includes BBQ grills, a kid’s pool, and a playground. A luxurious, elegant full-service spa on-site features a hair salon, facials, manicures, pedicures, massages, and aromatherapy.

This outstanding Downtown Destin location is close to several grocery stores and popular restaurants. Ruth’s Chris Steakhouse, Bubba Gump’s, Jim & Nick’s BBQ, and The Back Porch are all within walking distance. The highly acclaimed idyllic retail village of Destin Commons is also nearby. This engaging European-styled retail village features pedestrian-friendly avenues with outdoor music systems lined with royal palms, a classic fountain, and a magical ever-changing geyser plaza for the kids. There is also a wide array of fashion boutiques, fine clothiers, jewelers, shoe shops, specialty stores, restaurants with bars, and an AMC multiplex movie theater. This locale is also minutes away from Destin’s crown jewel of HarborWalk Village with waterfront restaurants, bars with live music, family amusements, free outdoor concerts, fun year-round festivals, and vibrant seasonal fireworks. Ocean Reef guests receive special reduced rates on popular pursuits, including charter fishing trips, pontoon rentals, sunset dinner cruises, dolphin sightseeing excursions, and a treasure hunt adventure aboard a pirate ship with a rollicking costumed crew.
