Reel Paradise - Destin Gulfgate 0505!
What could be better than the perfect elevation and Dolphins in the living room? This condo is high enough to be above the beach noise and bugs but low enough that you see an expanse of ocean rather than just the horizon. As you sit at the table there is a feel that you are on a cruise ship looking from your luxury cabin. And there are dolphins jumping and playing in the room for you. On top of that there is the 30-foot private balcony for watching the real dolphins as they swim by. There is a king bed in master BR and Jacuzzi tub/shower in attached bathroom. There are two Queen beds in Guest BR with attached bathroom. Flat TVs in bedrooms and living room. Granite countertops, ice maker in bar area, 1430 sq. feet. Free beach service March 1st through Sunday after Thanksgiving. (Monthly reservations do not receive complimentary beach set-ups.) Covered reserved parking. No pets. Sleeps 6.
