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!

Ariel Dunes I offers a state of the art fitness center, along with a 12,000sf pool featuring a zero entry, with a spacious deck for lounging and catching some rays before hitting the beach. Kids will love splashing around in the mushroom fountain!

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, 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:

Ariel Dunes is located close to the Silver Sands Factory Outlet, the nation’s large designer factory outlet featuring more than 100 name brand designer stores. Also close by is the Destin Commons with incredible eateries, upscale shopping, a park with pop up fountains at its center, and favorites like Bass Pro Shops and Hard Rock Cafe.

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!

Very Clean

Overall, this condo was the cleanest vacation rental we have ever stayed at. The only drawback (which really wasn't the owner's fault) was that the drains drained slowly in the bathtub and one of the bathroom sinks. A bottle of Drano under the sinks would fix it. Probably some guests did not clean up their hair in the shower. However, the condo was super clean and we'd stay there again!

Cons: I'll start by saying at first glance the condo looks really good and just like the pictures. Upon further inspection this unit is very dated and I can tell they don't clean thoroughly. Towels and linens were ALL dirty and stained. Pillow cases, sheets, towels, blankets EVERYTHING. There were socks left in the unit from the previous people that stayed. This showed me the unit was not properly cleaned. The sink in the full bathroom wouldn't drain properly and was stopped up. There are old dirty scissors in the kitchen that don't even work. These are all simple things that can be updated and changed quickly. The sofa also had stains and was pretty filthy as well. This place just needs a deep cleaning and would be a great place to come back to. Pros: good distance from the beach. A lot of space. Real Joy sent someone to fix the sink and provide new towels and blankets ASAP. Great communication and timeliness. They had two big pools which were really nice. Had a downstairs cafe for quick bites if hungry. Plenty of parking space. Easy access to your room with a door code. Not too far from restaurants and stores.

Ariel Dunes I - Seascape Resort - Awesome!

This condo unit at Ariel Dunes I is perfectly situated for a beautiful view of the ocean/beach, pools and landscaping! Queen bed in master is very comfortable! Having a restaurant/bar (Cabana Cafe) for lunch, dinner or just cocktails in the building was great! Food and service was excellent! They even have live music! It was nice to not have to leave the resort and fight traffic just to get a bite to eat or a drink. We highly recommend this condo! No hassles at all, and very relaxing!

Beautiful

Could not have found a better location for my family to enjoy the ocean for the first time. Beautiful views from both windows, easy walk to the beach, convenient parking. Very simple check-in and great communication over the weekend. The appliances and cookware could stand to be updated... But that wasn't really a problem. The beds, including the bunk beds and even the pull-out couch, were super comfortable. There were plenty of trash bags, toilet paper, etc. Only thing we had to buy was laundry detergent. If we have another opportunity to visit Florida, hopefully this rental will be available and we won't have to bother shopping around.

Condo was as advertised. Updated with a great view for the price. Only issue was the powerful smell of “fabuloso” upon arrival but I guess that is the price you pay for cleanliness. Would definitely rent this unit again.

A Perfect Beach Getaway

The condo was clean and decorated beautifully. The balcony Was great because it faced South and never got direct sun. We could sit outside and watch the ocean while staying cool. Beach access was just a short walk away. Check-in was super easy and communication with the property manager was A+. We would definitely stay here again.

Beachtime

The condo itself was very nice, parking no problem and beach access was very easy. The management company dropped the ball and did not communicate any information prior to our arrival, I finally texted them about an hour before we arrived to get info on check in. All other VRBO owners have sent info to me within a few days of arrival made things a bit stressful and kept us in the loop I felt that they ignored us.

Great location

We enjoyed our stay. The location was fantastic and incredible views. The condo is well decorated. We were missing bedding for the pullout sofa bed and didn’t realize until bedtime. I spoke to the agent who told me they have one sent but it didn’t arrive for almost 2 hours. Some dishes in the cabinets had food stuck to them and it appeared something had spilled in the silverware drawer and had not been cleaned up. Most times the unit was quiet although 2 mornings there was very loud work being done on the elevator just outside the master bedroom window at 6am. Overall we were satisfied and had a wonderful vacation.
