Description

Paradis is French for paradise—and it's the perfect name for this palatial beachfront estate tucked along Scenic Gulf Drive in Destin's Miramar Beach. This grand retreat features four bedrooms in the main residence and an additional bedroom in a beautifully appointed guest house, comfortably accommodating up to 14 lucky guests. It's perched high atop a sugar-white dune with panoramic Gulf views, private beach access, and a lagoon-style pool that practically melts into the horizon. Paradis also now features a private wood-clad "Man Cave" tucked just beneath the guest house—a cozy hideaway with a bar, big-screen TV, and plush leather seating.

Guests also enjoy complimentary seasonal beach service, ensuring premium relaxation just steps from the back door, and bicycles provided onsite, perfect for cruising Scenic Gulf Drive in classic coastal style.

Step inside, and you'll find interiors that blend coastal elegance with modern sophistication. The open living area stuns with triple tray ceilings, marble flooring, and entire walls of glass that frame the ever-changing seascape. A plush wraparound sectional and two elegant accent chairs offer front-row seats to both the flat-screen TV and the Gulf. Just steps away, the sleek white kitchen features custom cabinetry, integrated appliances, and a marble-topped bar with stylish raised seating. A rustic wood-plank dining table surrounded by benches sits beside a sunny window nook, creating the perfect space for casual breakfasts or sunset dinners.

On the first floor, a chic guest bedroom with a king-size bed and ornate metal headboard shares a full bath with a tub/shower combo. Upstairs, the opulent primary suite feels like a boutique hotel, with a four-poster king bed, soaring arched windows, wraparound Gulf-front balconies, and a spa-inspired ensuite bath with dual vanities, a soaking tub, and a walk-in marble shower. A second upstairs guest bedroom includes a queen-size bed and balcony access, while the adjacent bunk room sleeps four in twin bunks. Each bedroom in the main house includes its own private bath.

The detached guest house offers extra flexibility and privacy, with a breezy open-concept layout and Americana coastal décor. The living area features a sleeper sofa, leather lounge chair, flat-screen TV, and a kitchenette with a raised glass-top bistro table—ideal for snacks, coffee, or casual bites. A serene bedroom with a king-size bed connects to a full bath that also opens to the living space, making this retreat perfect for in-laws, extended family, or friends.

Just below, you'll discover a hidden gem: a fully enclosed, private "Man Cave" designed for laid-back fun. Wrapped in rich wood paneling, this cozy hideaway features a plush leather couch, pub-style bar seating, and a massive wall-mounted Smart TV with ambient LED lighting. Whether it's game day, movie night, or just a little downtime with a drink in hand, this tucked-away lounge delivers a whole new level of beachfront bliss.

Outside, a curvy Gulf-front pool with a cascading soaking tub sets the stage for laid-back luxury. Lounge poolside as waves lap in the background, or head down your private dune walkover to enjoy the white-sand beach at your doorstep.

You're right in the heart of Miramar Beach's coastal charm, with great local spots just a short stroll away. Head east along the shore to the beloved Surf Hut, where flip-flops are always welcome and the seafood comes with a side of Gulf views. To the west, a beachfront bar lights up the night with weekly bonfires, while Royal Palm Grill—just behind it—offers fresh local fare and sunset dining on the patio. Beyond that, Seascape Resort invites Ocean Reef Resorts guests to enjoy exclusive discounts on golf, tennis, and watersport rentals. For even more to explore, you're just minutes from the designer deals at Silver Sands Premium Outlets, the upscale shops and restaurants of Grand Boulevard, and the lively entertainment and events at Baytowne Wharf.

Definitely the perfect location and beautiful home. Very breathtaking view from almost all rooms of the ocean. Decorations were absolutely gorgeous! This was the cleanest home we have ever stayed in. Perfection. Everything about Ocean Reef is professional and courtesy.

Amazing!
We recently stayed at Paradis through Ocean Reef and had a wonderful experience. The house was the most well equipped beach rental we've had, the management was responsive and made check in and check out so easy.

Return to Destin
Overall the updates to the property were well done. We had a few maintenance issues when we arrived but they were taken care of promptly. The access to the beach was nice and beautiful view from the deck. Pool was a little smaller than other properties we have stayed at but the size of the deck was great and the tables outside were a nice addition that allowed us to eat outside! Definitely would recommend this property!
