Steps from the Sand | Bright Coastal Stay w/ Pool Access | Coastal Hideaway

Welcome to Coastal Hideaway by AvantStay, your serene beachside escape in the heart of Destin! Just steps from the sparkling sands and emerald waters of the Gulf, this inviting retreat pairs coastal charm with all the comforts of home. You’ll be minutes from Destin Commons, Henderson Beach State Park, and some of the area’s best dining and shopping—yet tucked in a peaceful enclave with resort-style amenities, including a refreshing communal pool.

What truly sets this home apart is its exclusive beach access. A private gate—accessible only to residents and guests within the complex—leads directly down to the shoreline. You’ll need a gate code to enter, ensuring a more secluded, uncrowded stretch of sand that feels worlds away from the busier beaches nearby.

Inside, soothing sea-blue hues and natural light set the tone for your stay. The open-concept layout connects a fully equipped kitchen—complete with retro aqua cabinets, coffee station, and barstool seating—to a cozy living area with a plush sectional, large TV, and dining table for four. A built-in desk offers a quiet spot to work or plan your next beach adventure.

Step through sliding doors to the enclosed porch, a bright and airy lounge with a sleeper sofa that doubles as an extra guest space or a morning coffee nook. The primary bedroom features a comfortable king bed and ensuite bathroom with a walk-in shower, offering a private retreat after a day in the sun.

From easy first-floor access and private parking to the exclusive gated beach path and nearby pool, everything about this home is designed for effortless coastal living.

AvantStay provides a personalized hospitality experience to elevate your stay. With our Concierge Service, guests have access to our tech-enabled services like fridge stocking, private chefs, massages, transportation, special occasion celebrations, baby gear rentals, ski gear, beach gear, and more. For anything you need, we’re at your fingertips!

Located in Northwest Florida, Destin is dubbed the “world's luckiest fishing village.” This Emerald Coast city is known for its sparkling white beaches, numerous golf courses, and world-famous fishing. Nearby zipline courses, dolphin cruises, and amusement parks make it a perfect destination for families. Adults and large groups also come here for beach parties during the day and live music at night.

Local Attractions: Destin Commons, Silversands Outlets, Crab Island, Dolphin Tours, Charter Offshore Fishing, Big Kahuna’s Water and Adventure Park, Crackings., Louisiana Lagniappe, Jackacuda’s Seafood + Sushi.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Will be coming back 100%. A few hiccups with wifi and beach gate codes, but the host was super fast in their response to rectify. Location is amazing, home is perfect. New appliances and kitchen utensils, VERY comfortable bed and living area. When they say steps to the beach, they mean less than a 1 minute walk to the most beautiful beach and water we've ever seen! Community around the home felt warm, safe, and welcoming by every member! We didn't, because you never know, but the area was so nice that it felt like you could leave your vehicle and home doors unlocked while sleeping or away! Absolutely perfect 12 night stay!
