SeaBlue House’s 4 bedrooms & 3 baths, open plan living, chef kitchen, and magnificent outdoor dining area with pool,outdoor shower & hot tub offer a refined yet cozy home base between beach adventures and Destin’s dining, shopping & activities. Free Beach Service

The Space

Take a look through our photos for a guided visual tour, or read on and I’ll tell you about our gorgeous beach home, SeaBlue Destin, and tell you a bit about the area so you can make the most of your time here!

All new 75k remodel for 2023 all new pool deck, hot tub, outdoor shower, lovely new outdoor dining area, and more area for games and sunbathing!! (Pictures coming soon ) The white sandy beach is just 88 yards (less than a block away for your enjoyment. Only beach access has golf cart parking designated for carts.

When you arrive at SeaBlue of Destin, you’ll know you’re someplace special. Lush, manicured landscaping surrounds the spacious corner lot, and the bright white home is trimmed with cheerfull SeaBlue sky. A friendly front porch has plenty of spots to sit and watch the world go by. Once inside, you’ll find a wide-open living space that’s ideal for conversation and socializing. A comfy sectional sofa faces a large flatscreen television and is perfect for catching the game or hosting a family movie night with a huge bowl of popcorn. Nearby, the farmhouse-style dining table has seating for ten.

In the kitchen, crisp white cabinets, glossy quartz countertops, and gleaming stainless steel appliances create a chic and efficient space for the family chef. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need to flip fresh blueberry pancakes, pack snacks for the beach, mix a batch of frosty happy hour cocktails, or prepare a full dinner for your crew. From ice makers to crock pots to coffee makers— it’s all here. An ample island with bar seating will be the casual spot where everyone lingers over their morning coffee and muffins while you plan your beach day.

On the second floor, the master suite is a private sanctuary away from it all. The king-size bed is wrapped in pristine white linens and sits in a luxe, upholstered frame. Vaulted ceilings and recessed lighting add height and a feeling of spaciousness. There’s also a 68-inch Smart TV, a coffee bar, a small seating area, and a glass door that leads out to a private, sun-kissed balcony. In the spa-like master bathroom, there’s a double vanity and a glass-enclosed step-in shower that’s ideal for rinsing off after a day at the beach or pool.

Another bedroom on this floor— dubbed the Turtle Room— is like a bonus master suite, complete with a king-size bed, flatscreen television, and a full ensuite bathroom with a tub/shower combo. The third bedroom on this floor has a queen-size bed and a 68-inch HDTV. There’s also another full bathroom that can be accessed from the hallway.

Back on the ground floor, a bunk / playroom for kids and a 3rd full bathroom make our beach home perfect for groups with children. On the ground floor, the foyer hallway opens out to the open kitchen, living, and dining spaces. The kitchen is a chef’s dream, well stocked for cooking, or we can arrange a visit from a wonderful private chef we met a few years ago – treat your group to family favorites, a seafood feast, or something new! A large dining table seats up to 10, with breakfast bar for 4 (our grandkids’ favorite place to eat!). The living room has a large L-shaped couch that converts to a sofa bed, large SmartTV with tons of streaming options, beautiful light & beachy decor, as well as doors to the deck, the backyard, the pool and the hot tub!

And just when you thought it couldn’t get any better— head outside to your private backyard paradise. When you’re not at the beach, chances are you’ll spend most of your time lounging and relaxing out here. Your family will love to spend time here, soaking up the Florida sunshine or kicking back in the shade with a cool drink. The crystal blue swimming pool and a bubbly hot tub create a feeling of total vacation nirvana. There’s also a barbeque and an outdoor dining table for alfresco meals under the stars. The outdoor shower is the perfect spot to rinse off sandy toes.

When you’re ready to go exploring, the location of the Seablue of Destin is tough to beat. You can use the golf cart to take a spin around the neighborhood or slip on your flip-flops and take a leisurely stroll. Make sure to check out all the delicious dining and fun shopping at nearby Destin Commons. When you want to get sandy, the Crystal Beach access point is right down the lane. And don’t miss out on the delicious smoothies and breakfast items at Camilla’s— so yummy!

Totally remodeled May 2023, our 4BD/3BA house has 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms upstairs, including a huge King Master Suite with a private balcony and coffee bar. King & Queen bedrooms share a 2nd bathroom to complete the upstairs; the bathrooms are a dream! High-quality bedding and linens, all completely sanitized between guests, make for relaxing sleep so you wake ready for fun. All bedrooms have TV with streaming options.

Outside, we have several outdoor dining vignettes as well as comfortable lounge furniture – we’ve found that teenagers especially like to have their own area, but you can still enjoy the outdoors together. The pool reflects the beautiful blue early morning light of the Florida coast, and watching the sun set from the hot tub is one of the most relaxing things on earth. We have a gas grill in case your group likes to BBQ, and there’s an outdoor shower as well, perfect for rinsing off sand from the beach before heading inside to refresh.

The beach is just around the corner less than a block away 88yards (2-3 minutes walk), and there are two entrances. Because competition for beach seating can be fierce, I offer a SPECIAL PERK for my guests during the busy March to October season: FREE BEACH SEATING! I’ve contracted with a company that will set up 4 chairs and 2 umbrellas for your group, and we have tons of additional beach equipment at SeaBlue House (including a beach wagon). Beach access is public; one beach entrance has a pavilion with picnic seating, restrooms, and showers. Also, right nearby, you’ll find Camille’s, our favorite local spot for great food, views & breezes from the upstairs, and sometimes live music! We also have Henderson’s Rooftop Bar just around the corner, which offers gorgeous views of Henderson Park & Beach. Destin itself offers tons of great activities, dining & shopping – please don’t hesitate to ask for recommendations if there’s something, in particular, in particular you’re seeking!

Please read our house rules to be sure SeaBlue House Destin is the perfect fit for your group, and I can’t wait to help you have a magical trip. Best ‘til then! Laura]

  • We had the best family vacation at Sea Blue. The house was perfect for a family of 9. The pool was awesome after a day on the beach. Everything was provided for a great trip to the beach, chairs, umbrellas, beach towels and my grand kids loved the golf cart for trips to get souvenirs and ice cream. The grill was perfect and the kitchen was supplied with everything you needed. Laura was a wonderful host. We will definitely rent this property again!

  • Our first beach trip with our 4 month old and family was excellent. Perfect weather and perfect house. The location was wonderful! Very short walk to the beach and restaurants and golf cart was awesome to get around even quicker and easier. Pool area was wonderful. Only small issue was pool lounge chairs could be replaced. Starting to get a little worn.
    Stayed 8 nights in Oct 2022

  • This was a great property and we enjoyed our stay. The only issue was that the golf cart did not work when we arrived. Laura was aware of the issue and we had a working golf cart within a few hours. Would highly recommend this property to anyone traveling to Destin.

  • We had 3 families stay with 5 kids total ranging in ages of 18 months-16 years old. The house looks just like the photos! It is beautiful and clean. Lots of extras like beach chairs, wagons, umbrellas. I loved the chair service at the beach. Made it so we didn’t have to get to the beach early and stake out a spot. We could go when we were ready without being rushed. Loved all the outdoor areas at the house. The neighborhood is beautiful with lots to do within walking distance. The golf cart was definitely great so didn’t have to cart everything to the beach in a wagon or being carried. House is very close to the beach! The owner reached out multiple times with things to do and even left us a welcome gift! We would definitely stay here again!!

    5/5 Excellent
