    Ariel Dunes offers 24 stories of amazing views that span the sugar white sands and emerald green water of the coastline. The building is angled slightly to the west, and the sunsets are incredible! From the rear of the building, you get a bird's eye view of the lush Seascape Golf Course and the sparkling Choctawhatchee Bay.

    Seascape Resort encompasses over 3 hundred acres of lush greens, serene lakes, and 2000 feet of pristine white sand beach. Soak in the views of the Gulf without all the traffic noise. Ariel Dunes I is set back into the resort, and is a quieter alternative, giving you a break from seasonal traffic noise but close enough for you to drink in the sights and sounds of Destin's famous beaches. Take a relaxing stroll to the beach and feel your cares melt away!

    The spectacular resort amenities include 2000 linear feet of easily accessible beach with chair and umbrella rentals, on-site golf, on-site pools (two are seasonally heated), tennis, watersport rentals, bike rentals, and several restaurants, including the famous Whales' Tail, which features live bands.

    Check out Seascape Towne Center located within the Seascape Resort! Featuring shopping, dining, and entertainment, this is a 55,000sf lakeside development designed for the whole family. Your kids will love the outdoor adventure park, including a ropes course, and you’ll love the unique dining, nightlife, and live music venues. With the large events plaza and arcade with laser tag, there’s really no need to step off the resort once you arrive!

    Area Attractions:

    Grand Boulevard Town Center is a pedestrian-friendly, shopping and dining complex just off Emerald Coast Parkway, convenient to both SanDestin and Miramar Beach. For the high-end shopper, the center offers everything from Fusion Art Glass Gallery to Brooks Brothers Country Club. A number of boutiques, such as Hello, Sunshine, and Magnolia House, carry fare you can't find anywhere else. Dining options include Mitchell's Fish Market, P. F. Chang's China Bistro, and Cantina Laredo Gourmet Mexican Food. In 2013, Walton County’s first movie theater opened at Grand Boulevard’s Town Center – the state-of-the-art Boulevard 10 Movie Theater.

    If you are near Miramar Beach, the snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Dolphin Reef, deployed in 2017. Located just 685 feet straight out from the Miramar Regional Public Beach access (by Pompano Joe's), it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Dolphin Reef is at a depth of 12-20 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

Yes, but the minute we got there the glass screen door slammed from the wind suction and the glass part came off. Very scary. The piece is in the closet by the door.

Great stay!

Great condo that was well stocked with what we needed for a great stay at the beach. The unit was very clean, had a great view, and was an easy, short walk to the beach. The pools were huge and it was very convenient that there was a restaurant/bar right on site. We would stay here again!

Great location! Ocean view! Great amount of space for all 9 of us. Walking to the beach was a breeze! Golf cart rentals are available but you don’t need one if you have a cart to carry beach stuff. Having a free fun pass a day was convenient. Our dryer wasn’t drying and getting ahold of the property manager was very easy. Came and fixed it within a few hours!

My vacation

Everything was great except the air conditioner was frozen up when we got there. They worked on it the day we arrived, Friday, but they didn’t really fix it until Monday. They did compensate us with a free boat ride which was very nice. Overall the place was great!

Nice place but needs a few tweaks

Condo is very spacious and overall nice. The floors were filthy. After arriving around 6 and showering our feet were black from the dirty floors. Not acceptable since the cleaning fees are so high. Also had to rewash the silverware because the drawer was full of sand. If you like to sleep in, you won’t be able to in the master room. The property has sheer curtains in the master bedroom and the living room. Apparently this has been brought to the owners attention before without any changes. Other than that the condo was very spacious and had a ton of beach items available and the kitchen had everything you need!

We’ve vacationed at Ariel Dunes for 11 years

Just seems like the property is going down that really upsets us because we absolutely adore Ariel dunes or we used to. Even the restaurant tasted different (not to mention my daughter went in for an ice cream one day to which they told her oh we’re shorthanded. Sorry we can’t scoop your ice cream right now.) when we checked in we got there late we are exhausted I go to get in bed and there is a lipstick stain on the top of my sheet and when I pull the sheets back there, is this other stain underneath it I am a germaphobe(even if I wasn’t, gross) needless to say I did not sleep that night. I immediately mailed the property manager. This was a Friday night and did not hear from them till Sunday about the sheets. Also the master bath sink would not drain we called they sent someone he said it was fixed, guess what it wasn’t. so we just used the other sink from then on out. They have some little donut stand there where the office used to be. I don’t know maybe if it’s just on weekends I’m not sure but it’s eight dollars for a tiny little cup of holes. It was just nuts. we look forward to our vacation to Florida every year and we were just kind of let down this year between the weather and certain mishaps from the condo. I’m really not one to complain. I didn’t even want to write this review, but they kept asking for my input so here it is. I just hope that they get the standards back up to how they used to be at Ariel dunes because we pay a lot of money to stay there.
