Empress 503

This spacious beach view condo at the Empress in Destin's Miramar Beach offers the best of both worlds—unobstructed Gulf views and lakeside serenity. Located on the fifth floor of a low-density luxury tower along Scenic Gulf Drive, Empress 503 stands out with two distinct living areas and dual primary suites—a rare find on the Emerald Coast. With three bedrooms, three full bathrooms, and over 2,500 square feet of single-level living space, this upscale residence comfortably accommodates up to eight guests. It’s the ideal retreat for families and friends traveling together, with room to gather, space to spread out, and stunning views in every direction.

The main open living, dining, and kitchen area is centered around sweeping Gulf views and a wall of floor-to-ceiling glass doors that lead directly to a deep, covered beach balcony. Watch the sun sparkle over the emerald waters from the comfort of a plush blue sofa and vibrant, striped armchairs. A flatscreen TV and colorful coastal accents give the space a laid-back, Floridian feel. Outside, the spacious balcony is furnished with Adirondack chairs and a high-top dining table—perfect for coffee at sunrise or al fresco dinners. Back inside, the adjacent dining area includes a round glass-top table with woven chairs and a breakfast bar for casual bites. The bright kitchen is fully equipped with white cabinetry, stainless appliances, and plenty of counter space for preparing vacation meals at home.

A second living area faces Stewart Lake and the lush Seascape golf course beyond. Decorated in coastal hues with shell-print armchairs and comfortable seating, this bonus den offers a peaceful retreat with its own large flatscreen TV, direct balcony access, and lovely lakeside views. It’s a great place to read, sip your morning coffee, or enjoy a quiet conversation. The den also includes a queen-size sleeper sofa, offering additional sleeping arrangements for larger groups.

Two primary bedroom suites feature king-size beds, Gulf views, and direct access to the beach-facing balcony. Each suite includes a private ensuite bath with dual vanities. One bath features a tub/shower combo, while the other offers a luxurious soaking tub and a separate walk-in shower. A third guest bedroom overlooks the lake and includes two twin beds, a flatscreen TV, and a private bath with a tub/shower combo. All three bathrooms feature double vanities and ample storage.

Additional conveniences include a laundry room with a full-size washer and dryer, updated flooring throughout, and private elevator access shared with only one other unit. Outside, the Empress grounds include tropical landscaping, a lakefront swimming pool, a hot tub, and access to the beach just across Scenic Gulf Drive. A scenic bike and pedestrian path runs parallel to the shore, and popular beachfront dining—including the Whale's Tail—is only steps away. Ocean Reef guests also enjoy special rates for Seascape Resort’s championship golf course and on-site tennis.

With a coveted location between a rare coastal dune lake and the jewel-toned Gulf, Empress 503 offers a peaceful, private, and picturesque escape. Whether you're watching dolphins dance across the horizon or enjoying cocktails at sunset, this remarkable coastal condo sets the stage for unforgettable memories.
