Located in the heart of Miramar Beach, this community is just minutes from the sugar white sands, close to favorite local restaurants, and nearby some of the best shopping in the area. This lovely neighborhood is practically next door to the Seascape Golf Resort, which offers tee times to members of the public and has superior tennis facilities. Wander down the beach to the Whale's Tail or Surf Hut for a bite, take a dip in the lovely community pool, or catch some rays on the sugar white beaches.

Area Attractions:

Our Happy Place is located about 2.3 miles from the Silver Sands Outlet Centers and is convenient to both the action in Destin and Grand Boulevard Towne Center with incredible eateries, upscale shopping and a park with pop up fountains at its center.

Close by is Destin Commons, a beautifully landscaped, pedestrian-friendly area and a great family venue where children will love to play in the interactive water fountains. Also for the younger guests, a nautically/pirate themed outdoor playground features a 1,750 square foot soft play area with various creatures from the sea, slides, and a treasure chest!  Destin Commons also has a mini-train for the kids. Destin Commons features over 75 shops and restaurants, including Godiva Chocolates, AMC Movie Theaters and Bass Pro Shop.

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!

"Ultimate Beach Vacation - We had to change our plans to stay near Tampa because of the hurricanes, and the Destin/Miramar Beach area was highly recommended. We had never been there before, but after reading the Happy Place description and reviews and looking at the pictures, we decided to try it. We were not disappointed. The house was in a perfect location for us to walk to and from the beach every day. The sunsets, sunrises and daytime experiences on the beach were phenomenal! The house is beautiful and equipped as described. We also enjoyed being in between Seaside and Destin and drove to these locations and along 30A often. Shopping was easy to access for groceries and beach supplies. The house accommodated our family perfectly! Everyone said it would be a place we would like to visit again. Thank you for helping us to have the ultimate beach vacation!"

"We had a wonderful family gathering at the Happy Place! The close proximity to Miramar Beach, Seaside, Destin and other beaches makes it a very desirable location. We walked to the beach every day and loved watching the sunrises and sunsets. The security of gated HOA was a nice bonus. "

"Great house! We’ve been coming to Destin and the beaches of South Walton for years. The house was perfect for our stay with six adults. The house is very spacious which makes it very comfortable. Everyone felt like they could spread out which was nice. We would have loved having a golf cart, as the walk from the house to the sand was a little over eight minutes. Not a bad walk at all, but could have made it nicer. The only slight inconveniences that did not mess up our stay but need a little attention are: the kitchen could use more cup towels oven mitts and/or hot pads. Some of the light fixtures and cans need replacement bulbs."
