Emerald Coast Destin, Private Beach, Chateau La Mer 9A!

This first-floor unit is located in the desirable community of Chateau La Mer, merely steps away from the main attraction and reason that millions of visitors continue to return, year after year–the sugar white sands and clear blue-green waters of Destin's spectacular beach. Check-in to this comfortable, spacious condo, drop off your luggage and stroll across the street to dip your toe in the surf and meander along the sand. Grab a seat on the beachfront patio of Captain Dave's on the Gulf and enjoy some of the best views in Destin, while sipping a cold beverage and nibbling on oysters, shrimp or crab. Can you feel the tension just floating away with the sea breezes? This is why you came!

Sleep soundly in the comfortable king bed in the master bedroom or two double beds in the second bedroom. There is also a queen sleeper sofa in the open-concept living area that will accommodate additional guests or children. And the unit features a bonus sunroom for your relaxing pleasure. The well-equipped kitchen includes a breakfast bar and stacked washer and dryer–no need to do vacation laundry when you arrive back home!

And don't leave Fido behind! The Chateau La Mer community is perfect for pets. There are large grassy areas and sidewalks for strolling along beside the breathtakingly beautiful beach. And the amenities don't stop there. Submerge yourself in the large pool that is heated in the winter, volley with friends and family on the well-kept tennis courts, and entertain with the use of the outdoor grills, clubhouse and more. The neighborhood has no through-traffic, which is greatly appreciated by families with kids and/or pets. Pet Fees $100.00 per pet. Max of 2 Pets 50 lbs or under. For stays of 28 days and longer, an additional long-term pet fee of $150 is required. No Cats Allowed!

Everything you need is nearby and Destin offers so many different recreational activities, there is something for every member of the family. From arts and culture to eco-tourism, from fine dining to quick bites, from sports and adventure to shopping and spas; the Destin area has it all. Rent a boat or paddleboard. Play golf or stumble upon a treasure on the beach or at one of the many shopping areas. Go deep-sea fishing or explore the famed, expansive Choctawhatchee Bay in what is known as the "world's luckiest fishing village." Destin-dining is also world-famous among foodies and regular folks alike. You can skydive, sail, cruise, dolphin watch, and explore the many opportunities that await you on the emerald shores of this stretch of the incredibly scenic panhandle of Florida. Or you can simply exhale and relax...

My happy place

We love this property as it’s our go to every time we come to the beach. We have stayed in 3 different units and have never been disappointed. It’s very quiet and I feel completely safe. True it’s not the newest and fanciest, but it’s clean and close enough to everything you need. The pool is nice and it’s literally less than a 5 minute walk across the street to the beach.

We will only book with the.

We go to Destin alot. Its an easy get away for us, and we all love it. We've stayed in a different condo rental each time. After staying here at the end of August, we will never book with another rental. Everything was great!! They contacted me within 10 minutes of booking to ask if we needed anything, and gave contact info if we needed anything while there. They are absolutely the only rental group we will be using for now on. I can not recommend them enough.

Very nice and clean when we arrived, very close to the beach, but it would be nice if they put a ramp, as it would be easier to bring the cart to the beach.Also, the mattresses on the beds and the sofa bed need to be changed.
