About this property

Beach service included Mar through Oct. Sleeps 14, Beautiful and Clean.

Our guests love our place and keep coming back.

We have turned a sad neglected townhouse into a beauty. The most common feedback we get is that our floorplan is perfect and we have thought of everything guest's need for their stay.

Everything is new and beautifully updated in a modern coastal style. We removed the old spiral deck stairs and enclosure and replaced it with larger deck areas and real deck stairs. We love buying diamonds in the rough and transforming them. We poured our hearts into this property and it is our favorite of all we have ever owned.

We also stay at our properties to get a feel for what the rental experience will be like for our guest. We work so hard to make sure it is a place where we would enjoy staying.

This beautifully renovated 3 story townhome sits directly on the beach and comes with a Seasonal Beach Service set-up for 4 (2 umbrellas and 4 chairs from March through November). We own the beach in front of our townhome to the water line, so you truly will have your own private beach to enjoy.

As you enter into the townhouse, you will be greeted by a foyer with a staircase leading to the second floor and a hallway to your right where you will find 2 bedrooms, 2 baths and a laundry room. The first bedroom, on the bottom floor, is a Mini-Master with a queen bed (sleeps 2) and beautiful en-suite bathroom with a shower / tub combo. The second bedroom, on the bottom floor, is a bunkroom with 2 sets of full size bunks (sleeps 8) and another beautiful en-suite bathroom with a shower / tub combo. Expansive glass doors span the entire width of the bunkroom providing amazing gulf views and access to a sizeable deck with stairs to the beach. This room also has a drink fridge and a freestanding icemaker. It’s a fun hangout for children or young adults.

The laundry room is between the 2 bedrooms on the bottom floor and holds a large capacity washer and dryer.

Up the stairs, on the second floor, is the kitchen, living area, a half bath and stairs to the top (third) floor. Every area has been impeccably renovated and decorated. This area is very open and has amazing views of the gulf through the beautiful glass doors that span the entire width of the room. Out the doors is a very spacious deck with stairs to the beach. The large island and dining table hold a total of 14 guests so you can all enjoy your meals together. It’s also a great place to hang out with the family and play card / board games or to catch up after an amazing day on the beach. There are all new appliances (dishwasher, oven / stove combo, microwave and large fridge). The oven / stove combo is state of the art. The oven has convection and air fryer capabilities and the stove is an induction cooktop. If you have never boiled water on an induction cooktop you are in for a treat. The kitchen has new white shaker cabinets, a beautiful backsplash and quartzite countertops and is fully stocked with all you need to prepare and serve amazing meals. The living area is a great place to watch movies on a new large flat screen smart tv.

The top floor holds 2 additional bedrooms, the Master Bedroom and another Mini-Master. Both bedrooms have beautiful en-suite bathrooms and King beds. The Master has glass doors that span the entire width of the bedroom and lead to a large private gulf front balcony. You do not need to even go out to the balcony to enjoy the gulf views because you can see it all from the bed.

All beds and baths have luxury sheets, bath towels / wash clothes, hand towels, bedding. new mattresses, and full length mirrors. Everyone loves our mattresses. All bedrooms have new ceiling fans and new flat screen smart tv’s. We provide a starter amount of bathroom paper, paper towels, soap and shampoo. All bathrooms have blow dryers and makeup mirrors. An iron and ironing board is available on both the top and bottom floor.

There are 4 levels of balconies. The top (3rd floor) balcony is private and can only be accessed through the Master Bedroom, The second floor, first floor and beach level balconies are attached by stairs that go from the second floor to the first floor to the beach level. All balconies are spacious and furnished.

The beach level deck is very large and is a great place to grill out and enjoy meals outside. This townhouse originally had an enclosed spiral staircase going from deck to deck. We removed the spiral stairs and enclosure and have real deck stairs for easier access to the beach.

We also provide beach toys, additional beach chairs, gas grill, a pack-n-play, booster seat and 2 baby gates. We do not provide beach towels.

Parking is tight, as with all townhomes directly on the gulf. While there is technically parking for 4, 4 large SUVs / trucks will most likely not fit. There are other places you can park your vehicles nearby if parking is too tight.

If bringing pets, please make sure you add pets to your reservation. Not adding them can result in being asked to remove them.

Cancellation Policy:
Full refunds will only be given if we get a replacement reservation equal to or more than the total of the cancelled reservation. If we get a replacement reservation which is less than the cancelled reservation, we will only refund up to the total of the replacement reservation.

If the cancellation is more than 60 days from arrival or we do not get a replacement reservation, an advance deposit refund will be applied as follows:

The gas grill was NOT cleaned/the self lighting on the grill DID NOT WORK/the backup gas bottle was empty and the gas bottle attached to the grill was 1/2 empty. Water pressure in showers was low These are item I would expect to be very good for the quality rental this property.

An Awesome Getaway
We enjoyed an incredible week of rest and relaxation! The property is in a great location with easy access to anything needed. You can walk out the backdoor to the beautiful and private beach directly on the Gulf. The views from dusk to dawn were incredible. The owners were very prompt with all questions and information before and during the trip. Would highly recommend this property to everyone.

Wonderful beachfront townhouse
We recently stayed with our 2 adult children, spouse, and 2 dogs. What can I say...the townhouse was amazing! The owners have gone "all out" in making sure that you have everything you need to enjoy your stay. Well stocked kitchen, comfy beds, comfy deck chairs, and beach service provided. It was really nice to be able to step out from the porch to the beach and the views were amazing. Also ice maker on bottom level for coolers was a nice touch. I can't think of anything that we could have wanted that wasn't thought of! Great communication during booking and leading up to our stay. Townhouse was clean. Relatively quiet during our stay, which is nice. We would definitely stay here again. Only negative is the parking, and you are well warned in the description. We drove 2 large vehicles (Ford F250 PU Truck and Honda Pilot SUV) and it was a tight fit, so please head their warning. But as stated, they warn you about this numerous times, so this is nothing that should surprise anyone or cause concern, but please do take them seriously. Again, wonderful townhouse and we had a great week! Can't wait to return.

Amazing house right on the beach
We had seven adults who stayed for my moms 60th birthday and this house was absolutely perfect. We had plenty of space for everyone to sleep comfortably and could have fit many more. Everything was super convenient and set up perfectly. You are literally right on the beach so it was perfect to go up and down to the house easily. The private beach and having a beach service that set up 4 chairs and umbrellas was amazing. They have plenty of chairs, toys, umbrellas, etc. would definitely stay here again! We were all very happy! And the owners are extremely responsive and great to work with.

I want to go back!
Everything was great! From the beginning, communication with the owners was great. They provide you with the information you need and when we had a question during our stay, they were quick to respond. The first thing we noticed when entering was the place was super clean! Everything is brand new with the recent remodel and greatly appreciated. The kitchen is fully stocked with high quality accessories and had plenty of dishes and silverware for a large group. There is a pantry to store all your food and the refrigerator is a great size. Plenty of seating to eat even when you have a large puzzle being worked at one end of the table. We found the beds to be very comfortable and everyone had plenty of pillows and blankets. The bathrooms were nice and plenty of towels under the sink. (Some of my adult children didn’t realize that was were the towels were kept.) The decks here are amazing! My husband and I were frequently on the private deck off the master bedroom. It was a perfect way to start and end each day. The views are just amazing! The beach access cannot be beat, you literally walk out the back doors. Included with the house is the beach setup of 2 umbrellas and 4 chairs, twice what the other houses had provided. There is also beach toys, boogie boards, a paddle board, and additional chairs available to use. The lower level outdoor shower and hose made returning from the beach and removing all the sand easier. The parking is tight but that is the way it is every where along the beach. I thought it might be tough pulling out into the street due to traffic but it was never a problem. The location is very convenient to everything we needed and even within walking distance to a great restaurant, ice cream, and shops. Overall, this rental was great, helped make our vacation even better, and we would rent it again in a heartbeat!!

Relax they have it covered!!
We feel like we found THE place to stay in Destin. The Sand Dollar #2 was amazing! We have a large family with ages in their 20’s to 9 and everyone had a comfortable space to both sleep and get away if they needed to. This condo was masterfully thought out. Each detail contributed to our stay and there isn’t an ounce of wasted space. The down stairs bunk room had large enough beds to accommodate our grown sons and nephews as well as their own bathroom! The small refrigerator and ice machine in that room were completely a bonus! The added bedroom downstairs with a private bathroom was perfect for our teen daughters and all of the outlets have USB chargers for all of the devices…that they barely touched while we visited. Each room is equipped with a smart TV, so if you just need some time to watch your favorite show, you can do that too. The main floor common space had more room than I have in my home for everyone to sit and eat! Eight people at the table and another 6 at the kitchen island! We basically had room to leave board games set up and still sit and eat. Additionally, the kitchen is better equipped than my own at home! They have thought of everything! The oven cooks evenly and perfectly and the special non-stick pans they have made every pancake come out fluffy and golden brown. They even left space for a pantry to put away dry foods while you stay. The upstairs bedrooms both have bathrooms and I can’t say enough about the master. You can shower with a view of the ocean! The master had a nice size closet for the few items we needed to hang up as well as an iron and ironing board that came in really handy. The king size bed was so comfortable and they spared no expense on the quality of the sheets and duvet covers. I didn’t get ONE complaint from anyone about their sleeping accommodations or the beds they were in…in fact I had to pull a few teens out of bed a couple of the days! My youngest daughter stayed upstairs near us and between the ocean waves and the separation of the common floor and the downstairs bathrooms we didn’t hear A THING! They must have some amazing sound attenuation in this place because we didn’t hear the neighbors on either side, or the rowdy kids we brought with us. I can’t say enough about the view. No matter what floor you are on you have the BEST view of the ocean and you are steps from a covered deck with comfortable chairs to sit on. Just a few more steps and you are sitting on the beach in the chairs they

About the host

Hosted by Matty and Mark Fackler

Host profile image
We have owned vacation rental properties in Destin since 2010. It has always been our dream to own a larger property where we owned "the sand" to gather with our extended family and to share with others. Our dream came true in March of 2021. We are beyond excited to share Sand Dollar 2 with you and we hope you love our home away from home as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

Sand Dollar 2 checked many wish list items for us. We wanted to own a piece of the beach; "own the sand" and have a place large enough to accommodate our friends and family.. We also love taking sad / tired properties and turning them back into the gems they once were. This townhouse row was probably one of the most unappealing gulf front set of townhomes. It has been exciting to see many of the other owners revamping thier places as well. We also wanted to be in an area where we could walk, bike and golf cart around.

What makes this property unique

Not only is this townhome directly on the beach but we own the beach in front of our townhome, to the water line, so this is truly a private uncrowded beach. No getting up at 6am to fight for a spot on the beach. Every bedroom has it's own bathroom. Like a new build. We took this property to the studs and replaced everything. Well stocked kitchen. I know that may not seem very important but I have stayed in so many places where I could not find enough utensils to serve a meal and pots and pans that had seen better days.
