About this property
Entire place
You'll have the entire condo to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.
EMAIL FROM STERLING SHORES HOA: The roofing project is scheduled to begin as late as May 4, 2026, and will last approximately 90 workdays (not calendar days), as progress may be impacted by weather conditions. If we are able to start prior to May 4, I will communicate that update promptly. Our goal is to have the project completed by the end of July 2026, weather permitting.
Work hours will be from 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM, Monday through Saturday. If we encounter hurricane season impacts or significant weather delays, the schedule may extend to Monday through Sunday.
Please be aware that the penthouse units will be the most affected during this project. The initial phase of work will involve the removal of existing roofing materials, which will generate sawing and scraping noise from 7:00 AM to approximately noon. After that, crews will focus on drying in the exposed areas, which is significantly quieter and will typically take place from noon until 7:00 PM.

We’ve been coming to Destin for years and decided to stay at Sterling Shores this year and it was the best decision! The rooms were incredibly clean, the staff was amazing, and the location is perfect. We highly recommend this condo!
It was all beautiful. Resort and PH6 was great and very well located. Trip was fun and a wonderful get away for our group of 4 lady friends. Time flew by too fast.
My husband and I have rented many properties for vacations and this one definitely rates in the top three! It included everything we needed and more! We have a couple small issues but they were taken care of immediately. The property was beautiful, the pools were clean, beach access was only steps away and having The Back Porch restaurant right on the property was very convenient. If we come back to Destin, we will be renting this property again.

The Frangista employees were friendly and helpfull. The home was extremely clean and well maintained. The furniture was comfortable. The location was incredible. The view was spectacular. In other words, book it! You won't regret staying here!
We love Sterling Shores property, it is close to everything and has an awesome pool. The condo is spacious and has comfy beds.
The cleaning could have been better as the floors were so dirty the bottom of our feet were black within an hour of arriving. The king guest room by the entrance of the condo needs some plumbing fixes in the bathroom as the sink leaks (it is ask a known issue because there is a bucket under there to catch drips), but the towels got wet from the dripping. The toilet takes forever to refill and makes a ton of noise.
When we initially arrived one of the air conditioning units was not working, so we contacted property management and they had someone come out within the hour to fix it, so that was nice to have a quick turn around.
Overall it is an amazing property and nice condo, just needs a couple updates and better cleaning of the floors.
This was a beautiful property. It is well maintained and has a great view of the beach. Just a short walk across a street to the beach with hardly any traffic. Easy checkin, gated, and comfortable all around
The view was incredible. Slept 12 comfortably. Plenty of space. Definitely staying here again.

Great condo, clean, not cluttered, unbelievable view! And the Frangista Beach Property management staff was fantastic. Very responsive to all of our requests.
The property is very well kept and in a great location. Quick walk to beach (2-3 min) The pool area is very nice although the water was a bit cold. Smaller pool had much warmer water. Condo is set up nicely and we would recommend it to everyone. View is fantastic 👌
Love the size, view, location... AC broke one day but the property manager had it fixed that day. The balcony needs more furniture but the property manager said the owner has already ordered more. Other than that it was a wonderful stay and I would recommend this property.
The location is amazing, heated pool so lovely at this time of the year and views from the 11th floor were breath taking!! The property management were awesome. Went to the store right away for stuff we needed for the kitchen.
It was everyrhing and more. Just be aware that pictures always make it look more spacious than it is. Would definitely come back but our family likes to try different places.

Ph6 was a great choice for our group of 7 with room to soarer. With the four bedrooms and 3 baths, it made for spacious living for each couple and one individual. Very nicely decorated and a great view from the top floor, along with a well stocked kitchen area made this a great choice. Would surely recommend to anyone looking for a great place to enjoy some time in Destin near the beach!

My husband and I rented this condo with our daughter, her husband, their baby and our 2 nephews for a week. The condo was beautiful, plenty of room, clean and in a great location. The booking, checking in and checking out process was easy and fast. If you have a large group going this is the idea condo. Hope to be back soon!!
Very nice penthouse unit, beautiful grounds/amenities
When I reserved this condo, I realized that it was across the street from the beach and I was concerned that I would regret not being directly on the sand. As it turned out, this was not a negative at all.
The beach view from this unit is beautiful and the short walk across the immaculate tropical grounds was always a pleasure. You should strongly consider renting this unit-it’s a very nice one. We will definitely check for the availability of Sterling Shores PH 6 the next time we go to to Destin.
