Beautifully Renovated Top-Floor Beach Retreat with Sweeping Gulf Views
Wake up just steps from the beach in this beautifully renovated top-floor condo, where fresh coastal style and breathtaking Gulf views create the perfect setting for your next getaway. Located on the 7th and highest floor of the building, and tucked toward the end of the hallway, this inviting retreat offers a little extra privacy with less foot traffic while placing you even closer to the sparkling emerald waters.
From the moment you walk in, you'll appreciate the bright, airy atmosphere. Hardwood-look flooring flows throughout the condo, complementing the clean, modern design and creating a warm, welcoming space that's perfect for relaxing after a day on the beach.
The thoughtfully updated kitchen is equipped with everything you need for easy vacation dining, including both a traditional drip coffee maker and a Keurig, along with the basic essentials for preparing meals, snacks, or your morning cup of coffee before heading out to the sand.
The open living area is designed for comfort and connection, featuring a reclining chair, a ceiling fan, and a sleeper sofa that allows accommodations for up to six guests. Gather together for movie night on the 65-inch TV with a DVD player, or simply unwind while the natural light and coastal views set the tone for a relaxing evening.
The primary suite offers a peaceful escape with a king-size bed, ceiling fan, standing floor fan, and a 32-inch TV. The beautifully renovated en-suite bathroom features a spacious walk-in shower, providing a refreshing, spa-like place to rinse away the sand after a day by the Gulf.
The guest bedroom is ideal for families, featuring a bunk bed with a twin on top and a queen on the bottom, along with a ceiling fan and a 31-inch TV. The nearby guest bathroom includes a tub and shower combination, making it equally convenient for a relaxing soak or bath time after a fun-filled day at the beach.
Outside, the vacation continues with everything this beachfront property has to offer. Spend your afternoons lounging by the pool, enjoy a friendly game of tennis or pickleball with complimentary equipment available from the front desk, or follow the private boardwalk straight to the sugar-white sand and emerald Gulf waters.
Your stay also includes two complimentary beach chairs and one beach umbrella from March 1 through October 31. Beach attendants will have everything set up for you each morning and take it down each evening, so you can simply arrive and enjoy your day by the water. Additional chairs and umbrellas are available to rent if needed.
For added convenience, the property features two on-site laundry rooms with pay-per-use washers and dryers, along with towel exchange on designated days during your stay.
Whether you're planning a family beach vacation, a couples' escape, or a getaway with friends, this beautifully renovated top-floor condo offers the perfect blend of modern comfort, thoughtful amenities, and an unbeatable location just steps from the Gulf. Reserve your stay today and experience the beauty of the Emerald Coast from one of the best spots in the building.

We have stayed in this unit before. My dad likes it because it’s one of few that has a recliner in the living room. He has to sleep sitting up so he sleeps in a recliner. He said he wished they would get a new one. I sat in it and it was kinda “lumpy” feeling. Other than that I wouldn’t change a thing! We will be back next year for sure! (Hopefully with a new recliner in the living room)

We have stayed at HS for about 15 years now. This trip we had to call maintenance on Sunday as the kitchen lights stopped working. The maintenance man said it was not the bulbs but the entire mechanism. It did not get fixed until Tuesday as Maintenance was busy with scheduled pest control. Later in the week when heating up food, the glass plate in the microwave popped into pieces. Maintenance was very quick to handle the issue. A few suggestions for HS, when a guest is checking in.. ask if they are a returning guest. After driving for hours (12) the spiel of the check in procedure is too long. If it’s a returning guest maybe a quick highlight if there are changes from the previous season, obtain any other info by an email ahead of time. The 3 hoses on the bridge are great but add the others back. The bridge was getting clogged up with people waiting for hoses. If the others are added back, more people could use them on the dock area and thin out the bridge users. All staff was nice. Aside from the unusual maintenance issues, the room was perfect. Thank you HS for a wonderful Aug. vacation.

We have NEVER had any issues at HSR. It is our absolute favorite. However, we had a toilet that didn’t flush. According to the front desk a work order was submitted before we even got there. They assured us that it would be fixed first thing in the morning. That did not happen. The desk told me there was only one maintenance person, but only 1 toilet for 4 people is not easy or acceptable which is why we paid for 2 bathrooms. My husband ended up fixing it and we didn’t hear anything at all again from the desk or the maintenance person the rest of the week. Other than that the condo was great.

I felt like I was in a 5 star hotel. The staff was very friendly and helpful. If you're going to Destin, I would highly recommend this property. You will feel like you're in paradise.There's nothing more peaceful than sitting on the balcony at night listening to the waves. I will definitely return and stay in unit 720. I will never stay anywhere else when I vacation in Destin.

Everything looked so clean and new, as if we were the first to ever stay there. I had a perfect view of the beach and ocean. I sat on the balcony every morning to watch the sunrise. The furniture and decor was very nice, looked highend to me. I could not believe the amount of dishes and utensils and everything you could think of to cook and serve with. Full size fridge, oven and dishwasher, was just like home, but better! Can't wait til next time!
Loved the beach and the pool. Building and room were CLEAN! Perfect location as well

The pictures for this unit are deceptive; it was much smaller than perceived, especially the balcony. Both bathrooms are in dire need of a more modern update; the fiberglass tub and plastic shower curtains needs to go!! The sink basin and countertops were small. The spare toilet tank refill valve was broken, (toilet ran constantly after flush), but was fixed during our stay. Also, the TiVo box was not working for the main TV, (none of the channels on menu could be seen), which was also fixed during our stay.
It was really a great condo loved the view from the balcony. Perfect for our family!
