Description

This stately Mediterranean styled vacation home has an outstanding location tucked in a lovely gated community away south of Highway 98 in Destin and conveniently located to everything! As you enter this lushly landscaped neighborhood known as the Dunes of Destin, you cruise down a drive that winds around a long lagoon towards the private beach, and you know you are arriving someplace special. The lagoon has a long pedestrian bridge that crosses over from one side to the other beside two fountains that are gloriously uplighted at night.

Sandprint by the Sea overlooks this marvelous lagoon. It is a three story Destin rental home with four bedrooms that accommodate up to twelve fortunate guests. It takes full advantage of the premier location with an expansive waterfront deck that spans across its width, providing a wonderful place to enjoy favorite drinks while experiencing the heavenly vistas. This home is also a short stroll away from the beautiful beach and a large community pool. The pool is located beside the lagoon with a waterfront patio for sunny relaxation and convenient bathroom facilities.

Guest quarters are located on all three floors, along with three living areas. This provides the perfect space for individual family or friend members to share a fun beach reunion together. The first floor includes a handsome den with patio access, a Wet Bar, a wraparound couch, and a large flatscreen TV for evening entertainment. A Kid's Bunk Room done in crisp nautical colors in whites and blues includes enough bedding to sleep seven. It has access to a full hall bath with a walk-in shower that also functions as a powder room off the den.

The bright, opulent second floor features a Great Room with a two-story cathedral ceiling and an open loft seating area with dramatic views down below. The living area portion has a dove gray wraparound couch and two regal blue accent chairs that face a huge flatscreen TV mounted above a dormant fireplace mantle. A columned portal leads into a dining room with a long dark hardwood rectangular table with eight contemporarily styled chairs with white cushions that sit beneath a striking rectangular crystal light fixture. The open kitchen nearby features state of the arts brushed stainless steel appliances and a white marble-topped bar with four raised seats for drinks or dining. A powder room is conveniently located off the living area.

The Master Bedroom on this level provides an upscale contemporary setting with a king-sized bed, a large flatscreen TV on a white credenza, and a lavish ensuite bath. The luxurious bathroom features a unique chic look adorned with a masterful mix of black and white marble, a dark ebony granite topped double vanity, a soaking tub as well as a glass-walled step-in shower.

The two other Guest Bedrooms on the top level are at each end of the loft seating area that includes another Wet Bar. One of these beautifully appointed bedrooms includes a sized queen bed next to glass doors that leads out to its own private classically styled front veranda and has a luxurious ensuite bath. The other Guest Bedroom also includes an ensuite bath and has two queen-sized beds with the ability to sleep four comfortably.

This fantastic Downtown Destin locale places guests very close to restaurants, grocery stores, wine outlets, and many shopping venues. HarborWalk Village is minutes away with lots of restaurants, bars with live music, fun festivals, open-air concerts, vivid seasonal fireworks, boat rentals, sunset dinner cruises, and dolphin sightseeing excursions.

We love the “turtle house”
Our family has affectionately nicknamed this house the “turtle house.” This was our second stay at this property and our 4th booking with Ocean Reef. The house is so well equipped for families and groups to enjoy. Super easy walk to beach and the pool in the community is never busy. We love watching and feeding the turtles and ducks off the balconies. We even saw a heron this year. Love making memories here.
Clay B from Fayetteville TN - Stayed May 2023
Thank you so much for taking the time to share your wonderful experiences at Sandprint by the Sea. We couldn't be more thrilled to hear that you've had another fantastic stay with us. Your affectionate nickname for our house, the "turtle house," truly warms our hearts. We are pleased to hear that you found the house well-equipped for your family and group. Ensuring our guests feel at home with everything they need for comfort and enjoyment is a key priority for us. It's heartening to know that the convenient access to the beach and the quiet community pool added to your positive experience. The unique opportunity to observe and interact with the local wildlife, such as turtles, ducks, and even a heron, from the balconies is a feature that we're thrilled you enjoyed. Thank you again for choosing Ocean Reef and Sandprint by the Sea for your vacations. We eagerly look forward to hosting your family for the 5th time. It's a pleasure to hear from our repeat guests who treasure making memories with us, as we equally love helping to create them.
