Gorgeous Upgraded 8-Bedroom Beachfront Home with Private Pool!

Jewel in the Sand Professionally Managed by Newman-Dailey

Jewel in the Sand is not simply a beachfront Destin vacation home- its a venue! A very small percentage of vacation rentals shine as brightly as this eight bedroom mansion. She's always had the right DNA to special- a private pool with a grilling area, lounge chairs and a boardwalk to the beach; open gathering/entertainment areas on each of the four floors; four beachfront balconies and a large reception-ready kitchen hedged by two dining rooms- one with beach views and one for formal dining. Yet now, this gem of a rental sparkles even more brilliantly thanks to recent renovations.

Definitely on trend, it exudes a ‘light and bright’ feel marked by glossy modern art, white shiplap walls and stunning grey marble counters throughout. Each space boasts high-end furnishings and coastal modern decor- from the many sitting areas to the individual bedrooms- every nook is welcoming. While several of the en-suite rooms would classify as master suites in any house, the fourth floor master suite is larger than many apartments. It’s bathroom alone has megawatts of 'wow'. Yes, Jewel in the Sand’s attention to detail is obvious in the custom tile finishes, gold hardware and even the refurbished ceilings.

Every substantial house needs certain necessities to host large groups and Jewel in the Sand is not lacking. A full laundry room, kitchenettes on multiple floors and flat screen TVS in each room raise the comfort level to new highs. Plus, don’t let its secluded location in The Dunes of Destin or its beachfront location fool you- malls, water parks, golf courses and grocery stores are very close by and a few restaurants are within walking distance.

Last Minute Booking

We booked this house as a last minute decision when our original house got canceled due to a hurricane. We did not pay summer prices so I feel that we got a good “deal” but if I had I would be pretty upset. There were stains on almost every chair and a few cockroaches inside and out. The house is very large with many bedrooms, a few steps from your private beach and close to restaurants, grocery, and shopping. The first floor is set up odd with the bunk room close to two exits (and almost all other bedrooms on 3rd and 4th floor) so it was not an option for our 5 year olds to be in together. Also, no baby monitors out of 6 would reach between floors or outside to pool. The 2nd floor was actually great with no bedrooms so you didn’t have to worry about waking others early. The kitchen left a lot to be desired. We had to go buy our own pair of scissors, salt/pepper, and paper and plastic bowls as there were only glass. The living room furniture was not comfortable. The 3rd and 4th floor rooms were great. As soon as we arrived we had to move ALL outdoor furniture as it was flipped upside down against the house and had not been moved back for us. They were VERY heavy. We had asked for the pool to be heated on Saturday. Noticed on Monday there had been no change and contacted management who had someone out immediately and it was determined the heater was broken and we got a full refund. Management responded quickly to any concerns.

Great location and enjoyed the pool and beach. But to many "bedrooms" downstairs on first floor

The downstairs bedrooms have no windows or second exit. Not sure what the code in Florida is, but these can not pass inspection as bedrooms in most states. Practically speaking they are dark and bedding for 16 people is serviced by two small bathrooms. We only had nine on the first floor and it was insufficient. Further, the refrigerator leaked water in the main compartment and after two repair visits it was not repaired. They did disable the ice maker so no ice for a beach vacation meant ice chests in the kitchen. Not the look or feel we had in mind for a rental of this price.
