Relax on your balcony with a stunning view of the gulf.

Sterling Sands is located directly on the Gulf with a beach that boasts 380 feet of sugar white sand. This complex features a heated pool, hot tub, barbecue grills with picnic area and fitness room.

This well appointed condo is decorated in a beach theme with fabulous 7th floor views from both the living area and the balcony. Morning coffee on the balcony is not only a relaxing start to your day, but also affords you a chance to watch the dolphins on their morning swim. Modern updates include granite countertops, tile flooring and new cabinetry in the kitchen and baths. Other updates include stainless steel appliances, and a full sized washer/dryer.

The 2 bedroom, 2 bath condo features a master bedroom with a king size bed and full bath. The second bedroom has a queen size bed and private access to the second full bath in the unit. The kitchen offers an oversized snack bar plus separate table and chairs. A new sectional has generous seating to enjoy views of the gulf, or your favorite TV shows on the 62” television.

My wife, my son, and his girlfriend went to Destin for a long weekend, which included deep-sea fishing. We stayed at this lovely condo and loved it. Right on the beach! The pool was lovely! The building seemed secure and was quiet. Will stay here again! Communication w/ Charles was awesome!!

Highly Recommend

Our family really enjoyed our experience at this Sterling Sands condo. The condo had everything we needed, very comfortable and right on the beach. The view was amazing and the spacious balcony offers plenty of space to sit out and take in the sights and sounds. The beds and couch felt new and everything in the condo was high quality. The pool and hot tub were nice as well and we appreciated the security staff on site that monitored noise levels and kept out the rift raft. Very easy walk out to the beach as well. And also wanted to mention many great restaurants and shops super close by which was really nice. 10/10 for us!

Great location!!

View was amazing. We saw dolphins from the balcony every morning. The included beach chairs were nice; I didn’t have to mess with bringing them out to the beach every day. The location was close to things to do in the evening and some great restaurants. We would stay here again.

Wonderful place to stay!

This condo is amazing! Very spacious with the best views from the 7th floor. The location is very great as well. We loved that we had a spot in the parking garage for the nights that it was raining. This condo has everything you could possibly need. Beds are very comfy! The swimming pool was great as well as the complimentary beach chairs & umbrella. We didn’t want to leave this beautiful condo! We will FOR SURE be staying here again!

Wonderful condo!

Nice and clean. Easy check in process. Great location and short walk to the beach! We loved that beach chairs were included. Not as big as other condos so less crowded on the beach which is a big plus! Property manager was in contact the whole week. He even had sand toys for my little one after asking since we were flying in. He also mailed my older son’s backpack back to us that we left in the condo. Would definitely stay again!

Beach Condo

Very clean and nicely decorated condo. Easy check in and check out. Beach chairs came with condo which is really convenient. Beach rental guys are very nice and helpful. Ask them for restaurant recommendations, and they will lead you to great ones. We'll be back next year for sure. Tina

Beautiful beach property

We had an amazing time at Charlie's place. Charlie was the epitome of an excellent host from the moment we booked our stay all throughout our vacation. He answered all our questions promptly which we really appreciated! Now the beautiful condo! Simply stunning! Right on the beach, steps from the immaculate and clean outdoor pool. The ocean view from the living room was even better than the photos! The condo was very clean, spacious, and updated. We would definitely stay again. Thanks again Charlie!

Vacay in Destin

The greatest things about the rental were the large kitchen, beach access and parking. The views of the beach from the porch were gorgeous. The check-in process was very easy and the owners sent 2 letters with information about the rental prior to arrival. It appears the HOA is VERY strict. You must aways remember to have your pool bracelet on you at all times, which is understandable to a point. While this is a 2 bedroom condo that sleeps 4, it does not sleep comfortably. I would hardly classify the second bedroom with a queen size bed pushed into the corner, a room. It was quite cramped. Dust was present and very noticeable on the wall over the TV and on ceiling fan. Pool noodles and another guests flip flops were left under the bed, noting that it had not been cleaned properly. One of the recliners in the living room was broken and tied down with a rope. Needs to be replaced. Shower curtains in both bathrooms were not clean, showing mildew. Overall it was a good place to stay but with the cost for rentals as high as they are right now, I’m not sure it was completely up to par.

Spring Break stay

We visited for Spring Break in April. We had a health emergency that impacted our timeline and property manager Charlie was very accomodating in allowing us to shift our rental dates a few days.The location is great -- near enough to all the attractions without the huge crowds of other areas.Beach access is literally an elevator ride and steps away -- and so is the pool. The unit is on the 7th floor with a good balcony looking directly out to the beach and down to the pool. Fun stay!

…in our wildest dreams

Beautifully appointed….gorgeous views from balcony. Ease of transporting luggage, etc.,carts/elevators. Awesome pool/hot-tub. 1 minute walk to beach. Each condo with own secure code for access to amenities. Very secure, safe environment. Owner quite unique in keeping us apprised of all the “wonderful things to do, places to see, visit including eateries”. Felt as though he had a genuine interest in our happiness. Great location offering vast array of dining experiences within few miles. Will definitely return and would be thrilled to real-visit this property!!

Great View

This is a nice location if you have kids. You’ve got a great view of the ocean and there are some things to do right across the street, like bumper boats, go carts and putt putt golf. The only thing we couldn’t find within walking distance was a convenience store. We ran out of toilet tissue (you only get one roll per bathroom) and had to get a ride to get some. If you drive there it’s not a big deal. The bedrooms are on the street side, so lots of traffic noise until 10:00pm or so. Overall really enjoyed our stay. The owner was quick to respond to all questions.

Comfortable condo right on the beach

Our stay at this condo was wonderful. Good size for 4 adults, with comfy beds & nice bathrooms. The living area was great with all the comfortable chairs & couches and the kitchen had everything we needed for our stay. The best part was the easy walk to the beautiful beach and the included chairs & umbrella during our stay. Charlie was extremely easy to communicate with, reached out immediately to answer all of my questions, & gave us great recommendations for places to eat. For our 1st visit to Destin, this condo was perfect!
