About this property

Gulf view/Low floor. The perfect combination! VRBO verified. No contact check-in

Enjoy your morning coffee on the private balcony while witnessing an inspiring Destin sunrise over the gorgeous emerald green waters of the Gulf. This large 1BR unit has great lower floor location and is situated on the East side of Tower 1 with a distant Gulf view. It is beautifully equipped with everything you would need for an amazing coastal vacation! Upgraded amenities include keyless entry (no standing in line for check-in), a full kitchen with tile and granite countertops, full-sized electric range with a 4 burner cook top, full sized microwave oven, full sized refrigerator/freezer with automatic icemaker (very important on those balmy beach days!), dishwasher, brand new Serta pillow top mattress, washer/dryer, and two televisions and DVD players (in LR and BR). In keeping with the local flavor, guests will enjoy a relaxing, beach inspired motif which is carried throughout with elegant, inviting furnishings and personal touches that make the unit feel like your very own 'home away from home.' With a king-sized bed and a pull out queen sofa bed in the Living Room, there is plenty of room for the kids or additional friends! Floor to ceiling sliding glass doors are your gateway from the living area to your large, private balcony, with table and chairs, overlooking pristine Top S’l State Park. If the beach is what you are longing for, Sandestin's private beach is a 3 minute stroll down a private path. For your added convenience, the owner's storage cage has been stocked with beach chairs, an umbrella, and a cooler for your exclusive and unlimited use throughout your stay.
We truly aspire to make our units a place that our guests will want to visit year after year. Therefore, meticulous care goes into each and every guest experience. This area offers so many unique entertainment options and, unlike dealing with those large conglomerate travel agencies, by working with us you have a real person to assist you in coordinating your family’s dream trip to the beautiful beaches of Destin. We invite you to come feel the inspiration only a place so beautiful can bring….the sand looks like sugar, the sea like emeralds and the sunsets like heaven.

Luau is the newest of Sandestin’s luxury beachside properties. Located across the street from Finz restaurant and a stone's throw to the world-renowned beaches, Luau combines elegance and simplicity with its Asian-inspired feel. Luau is located just across the street from the Sandestin Hilton.

Nestled on 2,400 acres of spectacular beaches and bayfront, Sandestin is like a world of its own. Sandestin guests don’t have to be a kid to act like one. Indulge in endless resort amenities, from four championship golf courses – making it one of the top Florida golf resorts, 15 world-class tennis courts, full-service marina, water sports, charter sailing and fishing, boutique, designer and outlet shopping, fine and casual dining, state-of-the-art fitness centers, professional salon and day spa and fun children’s programs. In addition, the Village of Baytowne Wharf, on the bayside of the resort, brings another dimension to Sandestin's incredible popularity with endless choices of restaurants and entertainment. Also on the bay side of the resort is the Grande Boulevard area which includes additional restaurant and shopping choices, as well as a Publix shopping center. Sandestin is truly the premiere vacation playground on the Emerald Coast!

DO NOT FALL FOR THE AMENITIES CARD MYTH! The Resort will charge you 14% of the total charge for your stay for access to Resort amenities (not an optional charge). IT IS NOT FREE! If booking through the Resort you will pay a fee for most 'free' amenities, even after paying for the amenities card.

We provide many items to our guests for free (really free). However, for those amenities we do not provide, all guests are given a list of local contacts who can provide you with many activities/services at a rate lower than the Resort will charge you for those same 'free' services.

For example; beach Set-ups are $30 per day, per person through the Resort and include chair and umbrella. We provide all of our guests unlimited use of our beach chairs, umbrella, beach toys and cooler for free!

Resort booked guests pay the 14% fee for access to Sandestin Fitness Center and Pools. The Luau fitness center and pool is FREE and is restricted to Luau guests only, so no overcrowding and heightened level of security.

BEFORE SUBMITTING A RESERVATION REQUEST, EMAIL MANAGER DIRECTLY FOR HOLIDAY PRICING! HOLIDAY PRICING IS AT THE DISCRETION OF THE OWNER, AND MAY NOT BE DISPLAYED IN THE RATE CALENDAR.

Great Place - Great Communication with Property Manager

Place was great, had a mechanical issue, but the Property Manager was great and worked to get the problem fixed. Very clean, this side of the complex was great, had view of the ocean. Location is phenomenal, nice pool and a 5-10 minute walk to the beach. Would certainly stay again and hope to in the future.

Loud cooling towers

There wasn't a picture posted from the living room windows to show the 3 really loud cooling tower fans running outside. If you sit on the deck you can barely talk to the person near to you because they are so loud. The owner knows the furniture has scrapes all on it and is old. The king bed was comfortable. I wouldn't stay in this particular condo again because of the location on the back of the propane the loud noise outside.

Nice property but need regular pillows

Enjoyed staying at the property. It’s not on the beach but you have some view of the Gulf. The one thing that bothered me were the pillows which were half the size of a standard pillow. We took the extra mini-pillows out of the trunk and used those but not as comfortable as a regular size pillow. The bed and bedding were comfortable. For check in process I found it difficult to find the door and gate codes which were within the body of the document that included instructions. The property manager was prompt to respond and assist with it.

The balcony was dirty— hand rails need painting badly. Room was clean but dishes were dirty. Handle on dryer kept coming off. Addressed with Sharon, who was most helpful. Cox cable was prompt in fixing bedroom tv. Suggestion: have a couple of plastic bowls for popcorn/chips.

A bit of a didappointment

This property was clean , but it was certainly not up to the standards of the Luau condo we rented four years ago. The property is tired looking and has not been updated in an attractive way. The little touches that make a guest feel comfortable , let alone pampered are just not there. We had to buy so many small necessities like salt and pepper, garbage bags, kitchen towels,and potholders. The pots were old and needed to be replaced We spent a lot of time washing dishes in the sink because we were only given one packet of dishwasher detergent. On a positive note , the pool is beautiful. The grounds are well kept. The proximity to the beach is excellent . We really enjoyed access to Bayside Wharf We will come back.

Issues

We had a fine booking experience. No issues. We arrived after 8 PM on our day of check in exhausted from our drive. Only to find the toilet, once flushed, takes about an hour and a half to refill. Family of 3 - takes 4 1/2 hours to go to the bathroom. We were too tired to worry about it so woke up and alerted the property manager about the issue. She sent a repairman a few hours later and he said all was fine. Yet, still couldn’t flush the toilet. Seems like a small requirement to be able to flush the toilet. When we got back and told the manager that the toilet still won’t flush she said - well we can leave and they would refund us. But, finding a place was up to us and it was 4 PM in the afternoon. We had planned a dinner with friends - so packing - finding a place and moving didn’t fit our schedule. So, we decided to stay...My advice is to be prepared if you rent this place. We had to start filling the toilet tank from the shower just to not be embarrassed by leaving the waste until the toilet filled hours later. This was not a vacation. Oh - and no sheets for the sofa bed. Fun times - not. It was clean. We didn’t cook - so can’t speak to that.

It was a nice weekend getaway, but the property honestly needs some renovations and upkeeping. The room we booked had multiple things not working, or missing. Didn't spend much time in the room, but it did have some minor issues. Other than that, had a great time.

Need more instructions for unit

The unit was clean and big enough for just us 2. The draw backs were cooking utensils lacking like a skillet with burned on food. Had been put thru dishwasher but unable to use until I scrubbed it! Also little cabinet space to store food items. Location good for most shopping/activities. Also would have been nice to know how outlets worked unit lamps!
