My husband and I really enjoyed our stay at the condo! It was very clean and right next to the pool and beach! There are 4 beach chairs and 2 umbrellas set up daily at the beach and that makes things effortless! The only things I would mention are that the second bedroom is pretty small, but can accommodate 2 people. I would also make sure to bring toilet paper and paper towels if you are staying a whole week. It’s the perfect condo for a small family especially if you’re bringing a dog! I would certainly stay here again!

This ground floor unit was great! A direct walk across the street and you are at the beach. Sometimes it can be tough to find a place that’s dog friendly that’s so close to the beach, but this was it! The complex itself was nice too, nice little neighborhood to walk around in behind you. The location was awesome too, quick walks to a coffee shop in both directions, Alvin’s island, pompano joes, Kenny d’s and so much more. It had nice seating on the patio. We will definitely be returning!

Why they chose this property

We love that MARAVILLA is a family oriented, pet friendly complex in Destin, with the largest and most beautiful private beach. The grounds is also home to a tennis court, basketball goal, and two swimming pools. Maravilla is a gated community with a security guard on site as well.

What makes this property unique

Unit 2106, being a ground floor unit , affords you the option of walking out your front door directly to the pool, grills and the beach, and also with a view of the Gulf. We have a patio furnished with bistro table, two chase lounges and ceiling fan for those warm July days. Sit back , read a book, sun bath and watch your children play on the front lawn or swim in the pool.

2106 is next to the portico, convenient for loading and unloading your luggage. There is also a bike rack in the portico. And you park right at your front door.

Maravilla 2106, ground floor, is located in the Gulfront Building #2, walk straight out the door onto the crosswalk to the gate for Maravilla.
