About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire condo to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Beach-side, beautiful low-rise with uncrowded beach!

This 3 bedroom 2 bathroom is the perfect condo for any large family. With 2 sets of bunk beds in guest room, 2 full beds in other guest room, and king in master there is plenty of space for everyone. Located in the penthouse building, unit 37 is just a short walk to the beach.

Beach Service – If you didn’t pre-reserve beach chairs, just stop by the beach hut or call the Excel team at In addition to chairs and umbrellas, Excel offers kayaks and paddle boards for rent, as well as an assortment of snacks and drinks.
Tennis, Basketball, Pickleball, and Shuffleboard – Forget your gear? No worries, you can check out rackets, balls, and more at the front desk at no charge!
Grilling Out – In the busy months of spring and summer, many families opt to grill out rather than go out. We have eight charcoal grills available. There are several seafood markets nearby, including Blalock’s which is just a block to the west (p.s., their tuna dip is a must try!).
Fitness Center – Did you know we have a fitness center in the Penthouse building? Just stop by the front desk to borrow the key.
Family Activities – There’s always something fun on the itinerary at Silver Dunes:
• Annual Easter Egg Hunt in the Courtyard – Easter Sunday, 9 am in the courtyard
• Scavenger Hunts – Throughout the Spring – for children of all ages! Just stop by the office to pick up your scavenger hunt necessities. Once you’ve collected everything, stop back by the office to pick a surprise from the Silver Dunes treasure chest!
• Movies in the Courtyard – Bring a picnic blanket, your beach chairs, and join us on Mondays at dusk throughout June and July. We show a different family-friendly movie each week.
• S’mores Nights with Live Music at the Pool –Wednesday nights are awesome at Silver Dunes! Throughout June and July, the firepits will be out, s’mores roasting, and tunes playing!

Great property! The patio door off the living room needs to be fixed (need to use both hands and a foot to open.it) and the carpeting can use an update or switch to vinyl flooring. Otherwise it was very comfortable condo. All the amenities were in great condition. Short walk to the beach and pool.

Beach Vacation 2022
Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Overall good experience! Location was good and amenities were fine. The only issue was we arrived at 4:15pm and rental was not ready. When we entered they were still cleaning! I understood we could check in at 4 and when I asked management they said it is anytime after 4pm. We waited until the gentleman was done and he still did not unload clean dishes from dishwasher! I think cleanliness was sacrificed because he knew we were waiting! However, we did have a great vacation and would consider staying here again as well as telling others about the property!

Love Silver Dunes
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We've had family coming to Silver Dunes since the 70's and it has remained our favorite place to stay in Destin. The beach is extremely well maintained, unlike other places we've stayed along 30 A. The grounds are very nice and provide the perfect place for family to enjoy.

Great unit and beach space!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This unit had the cutest, beach decor. No cheesy beach signs in this place, but beautiful boho decor with a tasteful, nautical touch. The unit itself was older, but the bright white walls and decor made up for it. It was clean upon arrival, and we had plenty of towels/linens. The best part about Silver dunes is that the condo building itself is smaller than its neighboring condo towers, so we had PLENTY of space on the beach for our party of ten. We plan on going back!

Silver Dunes Unit 37
Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Pros: Very attractively decorated, good location for Silver Dunes in general, comfortabel beds, well equipped kitchen, adequate towels, washer and dryer, everything seemed clean, nice furnishing and closets, games availableCons: the TV was a REAL issue. There were not adequate and easily available instructions for the various remotes available. In order to watch college football, I think our son eventually joined Sling for a trial period. Someone eventually came to help but we had spent hours by that time. Outside grill does not work well. Tried steaks for a few minutes and then put them in the oven because they did not seem cooked at all. Door entry code did not work when we arrived but was quickly remedied when we call the management office. Dryer is outside on porch but still much better than nothing. This unit is an end unit which has its perks, ie quiet. But there was very little view. Bunk beds were loved by toddlers but were a bit shaky. I would be hesitant to have an adult sleep in them.

Fleas kept biting all of my family
Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was somewhat unhappy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: This unit was not worth $700 a night(roughly). The carpet was heavily stained. The sliding doors would not open the whole item and the handles eventually broke off. Not to mention, the first night and the remaining stay, my family was eaten up by fleas. Inside the condo, there were several big cockroaches and outside surrounding areas had roaches crawling around. Maintenance, did little to take the dumpsters, which were constantly overfilled. While there is no smoking allowed in the units, it did not stop other guests from smoking marijuana, where other guests could inhale it. We called the front the desk and they did nothing to stop them. This place could use a major update/ paint job and cleaning, because it is disgusting, to say the least. I would not recommend this place to anybody.

Sorry to say...
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Not good. Pantry entirely too small to store enough food for 8 people, no ceiling fan in 1st bedroom or good lighting, receptacles loose in walls in MB and wouldn't charge, dryer outside on patio and not inside, dishwasher leaking, no stopper for bathtub in master bedroom, sliding doors kept coming off track and were very hard to lock due to being old and somewhat rusted and bent. Outdated for what you pay now. Rates have gone up. Complex itself is still very nice and clean. Beach service not the same without George who always made sure the only people on Silver Dunes' beach were renters. There were several coming over from the other towers because their beach was so crowded. Very disappointed in our stay here.

One last hoorah!
Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Unit 37 is new to the rental program. The furniture is nice and comfortable, but the condo itself is outdated. The carpet needs to be replaced and a couple of the sliding doors were pretty hard to open. The dryer had a load of towels left in it. Unfortunately, the rates here have gone up almost every year for the last 5-6 years with no increased amenities in return. After 30+ years of coming to Silver Dunes every year we will not be returning next summer. The customer service is just not there any more. For the prices and what you get for your money, I would look elsewhere around Destin.
