Probably our 5th time here? Maybe more .. they keep their condo more home like than any we’ve stayed in. Perfect floor, great owners, the best building and staff. Hard to beat the sandbar staff too
We came from Michigan and this did not disappoint for our Spring Break. The view was amazing and never got old. The sunrises were magical. We all loved the options of going to the beach or pool without leaving. Our favorite was just listening to the waves from any room of the condo. If you can, you must check out this property. We cannot wait to come back!
We loved staying here! It was the perfect location for our young family, as we had easy access to the beach and heated pool. The property is beautiful and has all the amenities needed for a perfect beach vacation!

We had a wonderful time at this condo! It is a great location and they keep the pool area nice and clean. The view was absolutely beautiful! We enjoyed walking the resort grounds and lounging by the pool. Overall was a great stay!
Such a beautiful condo with beautiful views! Everything that you could need was provided! We couldn't have asked for a better stay and definitely plan on booking for next summer!
Everything was as described, the location was ideal and the amenities were great. Condo was clean and well kept and exceeded our expectations. Would 100% recommend and return for a stay here!

About the host
Hosted by Frank and Geneva Barnhill
We are Geneva and Frank Barnhill. We have been married 55 years, and live in Dunwoody, Georgia, a suburb of Atlanta. We have been in the Jewelry Business for 56 years.
We have owned condos in Destin for more than 36 years, and at Silver Shells since 2002. We call it our HOME AWAY FROM HOME.
Why they chose this property
We visited Destin about 36 years ago and discovered it's beautiful beach, friendly people and many wonderful restaurants. In 2002 we stopped at Silver Shells for lunch, took one look at the view from our 8th floor condo, and bought it immediately. Silver Shells is an Upscale, Gated, Family oriented Beach Resort. It was the best family decision we have ever made.
What makes this property unique
For us it is the Relaxation, walking on the beautiful beach, Spa, and the many wonderful restaurants we have discovered in Destin. We also enjoy breakfast, lunch and cocktails with a spectacular view from our balcony. Our children and grandchildren love the Beach, huge Pool, Playground and the many things to do at Silver Shells and in Destin.
