Description

This stunning vacation rental residence in the luxury tower of Sterling Shores has three bedrooms, three full baths, and can comfortably accommodate eight fortunate guests. The shimmering “sterling shores” of Destin are an incredible amenity to itself at this wonderful beach resort with lushly landscaped grounds and clusters of tropical palm trees. The lovely surroundings include a lagoon-shaped swimming pool with five curvy sides and an expansive sun deck for lounging. A zero-entry part of the pool features a whimsical mushroom sculpture with water that cascades down for fun, refreshing frolic. Another swimming pool is a short distance away beside the beautiful beach and is seasonally heated during the cooler times of the year. There is also a fitness center onsite to keep up with your workout routines while on vacation here in Destin. Two parking spaces are provided, with one reserved spot inside the convenient parking garage. When ready to hit the beach, be sure to stop by the Tiki Bar & Grill for delicious drinks, sandwiches, and savory snacks.

Condo Sterling Shores 1001 has a bright, open living, kitchen, and dining area with a wide wall of floor-to-ceiling windows on one side and another with sliding glass doors leading to a corner balcony. Both highlight gorgeous views of the glittering gulf, and the wonderfully furnished balcony connects directly to the primary bedroom. The sunny living area features comfortable furnishings with a coral-patterned king-sized sleeper sofa and leather armchair facing a large flatscreen TV mounted above a stylish cabinet for entertainment. A formal dining table with eight white palatial chairs sits beneath a white chandelier near the open kitchen with regal raised chairs for entertaining. The bright white kitchen provides everything needed to create fun culinary delights. An attached laundry room is also provided for added convenience.

Each bedroom is lavishly furnished and includes luxurious ensuite baths. The primary bedroom has a stately look with white cottage-style furnishings. It boasts a large king-size bed with four carved pineapple posts and a headboard crowned with a carved banana leaf beside sliding glass doors. They lead out to the balcony showcasing sensational views of the jewel-toned gulf. The bed faces a flatscreen TV for evening viewing pleasure mounted above a grand white dressing cabinet next to a fancy floral patterned armchair. An ensuite luxury bath features a double vanity with granite countertops, a walk-in shower, and a relaxing soaking tub. Nearby, a gulf-view guest bedroom also has a king-size bed and sits near a cornered window with a white cushioned classically framed chair. The bed has a decorative white metal headboard with two regal side tables with tall shaded lamps and exquisite bases. It faces a flatscreen TV mounted above a tall white cabinet and a mirrored wet bar with glass shelving and a mini-fridge. A door leads out to its own private balcony with exceptional east-facing gulf views. The final guest bedroom has a queen-size bed with a decorative metal headboard facing a flatscreen TV atop a dark ebony dresser. This room has direct access to a luxuriously appointed hall bath with a tub-shower combination that also serves as a powder room.

This outstanding Destin location is only a short distance away from great restaurants and local attractions. One restaurant within walking distance, The Back Porch, is located directly on the beach and serves delicious seafood and drinks. Visitors are also only minutes from grocery stores and the idyllic European-styled retail village of the Destin Commons. This captivating place offers abundant shopping adventures, restaurants with bars, and an AMC multiplex movie theater. Destin’s crown jewel, known as HarborWalk Village, is only minutes away towards the west. It features wonderful restaurants, bars with live music, fun year-round festivals, outdoor concerts, and vibrant seasonal firework displays.

I enjoyed everything.
It was very clean, spacious and very nice decor. I loved this corner unit. When I book again, you notice I didn't say IF. I would love to stay at this resort and stay in this gorgeous room.

We welcome all of your questions! Most property-specific details can be answered in the AMENITIES tab, for example, "Is beach service included?", "Is there a community pool?" and "How far is the beach?". Additional answers may be found in our Rental Policies.

Still have unanswered questions? We invite you to ask below. Our vacation specialists look forward to providing you with a detailed response to help you find the best place by the beach!

Are there any designated smoking areas?
Deb H - Posted: 12/29/2023

Answer:

Sterling Shores is a smoke free environment with smoking prohibited in all common areas, as well as balconies, pool areas, and the private beach.

For an additional fee, can we bring our small 15lb dog?
Cimberly L - Posted: 02/14/2024

Answer:

We love our fur babies at Ocean Reef Resorts. Unfortunately, the Sterling Shores Homeowners Association does not allow guests to bring pets. If you are unable to board your pup - check out these Pet Friendly Vacation Rentals.

Do you have beach chairs, umbrellas, beach cart, or sand toys?
Rhonda W - Posted: 04/24/2024

Answer:

It is always possible that the owner has supplied these items or previous guests have left them at the property; however, due to the high volume of visitors, things can inevitably be broken, misplaced, or lost. Since we cannot guarantee these items will be present, it is always safest to pack your own or rent some when you arrive.
