About this property

One of SPC's most booked units! Poolfront! Brand NEW renovation!

* Please note: during peak Summer season, all bookings run Saturday-Saturday only (7-day stay) Snowbird stays (Jan-Mar) are minimum 70 day stays.

Welcome to Marley's Place, your dream getaway in sunny Destin, Florida. This 1-bedroom unit has had a complete renovation and features new furnishings throughout. It's one of the most sought after 1BR units in all of SPC. Beautiful LVP floors and a tastefully remodeled bath with garden tub allow you to enjoy the Destin lifestyle in comfort and luxury. This unit features a queen size bed and also a pull-out sleeper sofa, and can accommodate 4 people. The new 65" smart TV is perfect for those rainy days. Brand new appliances, quartz countertops, high speed internet, bluetooth ceiling speaker in the bathroom....it's pure vacation bliss! While our unit doesn’t have a washer and dryer, the public use facility is right around the corner from the front door, along with an extra bathroom.

The Sandpiper Cove Resort is a unique property in Destin. With 1100' of deeded beach access, you can enjoy the stunning emerald water and sugar white sand without having to fight the crowds at public beaches. Hang out in the shade at the Rick's SandTrap beachfront bar and enjoy drinks and food while you watch the waves crash. For those that enjoy the harbor, you can access the Destin Harbor right from the canal and marina in Sandpiper by boat or paddleboard. Louisiana Lagniappe is located within 200 yards of the unit and you can enjoy fine dining and happy hour right overlooking the Destin Harbor and SPC marina. It's been voted Tops in Destin many years, and is one of the best hidden secrets in Destin.

Our unit also looks directly over the pool, so you can watch the kids right from the balcony chairs with no worries. And Sandpiper is a gated resort, as well, for your safety. Our unit is a short walk, or drive for those who prefer, to the gated private beach access that is fully equipped with Tiki Bar and restrooms. And enjoy your coffee or a few drinks with a view of the pool! Walk out from the unit and directly onto the 9th hole of the par 3 pitch and putt golf course at Sandpiper and play all day for free!

The HarborWalk Village is just a few stoplights away, so you can be there within minutes. Or simply ride the Harbor Taxi from the dock/marina in Sandpiper and leave the car behind while you enjoy the nightlife on the harbor!

Be sure to take the short walk or quick drive to the end of Gulf Shore Drive and enjoy some time on Norriego Point. It's a secret gem in Destin that many don't know about. It offers secluded jetties with quiet water that is perfect for snorkeling and for the little kids. Or you can park your beach chairs on the harbor and spend the day watching the largest commercial fishing fleet in Florida come in with the day's catch while the sun begins to dip.

If you need supplies, you can access Target, Walgreens, McDonalds, etc just outside the resort and without fighting any of the Hwy 98 traffic.

Sandpiper Cove is the perfect place to enjoy all that Destin has to offer. Spend the day on the Gulf. Take a water taxi to Margaritaville. Rent a paddleboard for the canal and harbor. Snorkel the jetties. Sit by the pool.

You can do it all from this perfect beach getaway. And at a price that's affordable!!

** Age restrictions: Must be 25 years of age, or accompanied by parents, in order to rent.
** This is a NON-SMOKING and NON-VAPING unit.

Anniversary Stay
The stay was great. Communication was great with the host. I had Access to a private beach very close in proximity. Close to food, shopping and entertainment. The condo had all of the amenities that you will need for your stay. The only two cons was there was no in house washer & dry but the condo location had community ones. I would have also liked a more pillow top cushion for the bed.

We loved our stay at Sandpiper Cove! The condo was decorated so cute and the mattress was comfy, even the pullout sofa! The pool is right our back. If you are a light sleeper, the traffic noise may be an issue. Other than that, it’s perfect!!

Great location/updated
We really enjoyed our stay at Marley’s Place. Chris was great to communicate with through the booking process and even when I accidentally couldn’t find the hair dryer offered to do a target pick up to get us one. The condo is conveniently located right next to the pool and just a 2-3 minute drive to the beach. Although we didn’t use the golf course this is another great feature. We absolutely loved dining at the Louisiana Lagniappe located on site. Excellent food overlooking the bay. We loved the convenience to shopping, restaurants, etc as well. The only recommendations I have are a noise machine as the bedroom does backup to the road (we luckily had one), extra towels, as well as a way to adjust the temperature. We got quite hot in the evenings. Thanks for allowing us to stay in your beautiful condo.

Great stay at Marleys Place
Nicely renovated condo. Interior is just as pictures show. No detail is left out. The owners have thought of everything. Kitchen was well stocked. Loved the dressers in the master closet to store our clothes. They also had a great beach cart and chairs available for us to use. The owners are super easy to work with. Check in and check out was a breeze. The grounds at SandPiper cove are beautiful with beautiful landscaping. Also, easy access to the beach. It was nice to have Rick’s for a quick snack/ lunch on the beach. We really enjoyed our time at Marley’s Place.

Nice condo but some road noise
We did like this property and likely would stay here again. Place seemed to have been recently redecorated as everything looks fresh and new. The owners were very responsive to all our questions about the property. They even had beach chairs available. The pool area is right off the deck. Our only dislike was the road noise, which we are not accustom too. If we stay here again, we will be prepared and likely if you live in the city, the noise likely would not bother you. Check-in was easy and the keyless entry, made going and coming so easy. Since we were on the back of the property, we drove to the beach; less than a 2 minute drive. We also like that the property is gated with a 24/7 guard.

Wonderful vacation rental!
We had an amazing time staying at Marleys Place. The condo is breathtaking with the updated decor and amenities. The pool was conveniently just a few steps away from the deck. The condo is located perfectly within Sandpiper Cove were it is easily accessible to get to and from. The owners were friendly and amazing to communicate with. We will definitely be staying here again!

Disappointed
Very nice location, very nice host. Unfortunately as soon as we walk through the doors, we found that the pillow on the couch was falling apart, the pull out bed in the living room, had stains on it when we pulled it out, floors were so dirty, we had to sweep, before we could put the baby down on the floor. Had the baby sleep on the floor, because we didn’t have faith the bed was clean. Imagine, vacation where you have to clean. In fairness, the host gave us a credit, for the inconvenience, but charge a cleaning fee. I can tell you the pictures & videos I have, prove that it wasn’t clean from the last guest. So what’s cleaning fee for? They did send some one out that to clean, but I wouldn’t call it clean. Definitely put me in a bad mood to start the vacation. Nice people, but very unaware of the cleanliness of the unit.

Place was cute but needs several updates. Listing was not correct
Outlets- anything you plugged in fell out. Had issues with my c-pap machine. Listing says queen bed. Was not a queen! It was a full and a very uncomfortable one at that. They thought putting a egg creat topper would help. Pool by room was down most of time. Was told after the fact that 75 was as cool as the room could get. Overpaid for what we got.

We really enjoyed our stay in this beautiful condo. Chris was great about responding quickly through out the reservation process and while we were there. Very comfortable bed. The balcony was our favorite place for breakfast with a nice view over the pool area. The condo was just as described & had everything we needed and is close to stores and restaurants. We really enjoyed having access to the private beach area with ample free parking. Rick's Sandtrap was a great place to eat while on the beach and very reasonably priced. We would definetely stay here again!

Condo Cozy although the road noise was a little much.
Cozy and had everything you could want except washer and dryer. However there was a laundry mat directly below the condo. The location of the condo was next to the busy street so hearing the vehicles at night took some getting use too. The only other thing was you could definitely tell the condo was or had been smoked in and had that smell of a smoker in it. Also the condo AC was set where it would not go any lower than 68 degrees. The owner was very responsive if I had any questions.

About the host

Hosted by Chris

Host profile image
Our family has been traveling to the Destin area since 2005. We've dreamed of owning beach property since our first visit, and were blessed to have that dream come true recently. We love to visit Norriego Point and the jetties, explore the harbor and all of the things to do there, and enjoy the salty air and beautiful emerald water of the beach.

Why they chose this property

We chose Sandpiper because from our first visit, we realized that the Holiday Isle and Harbor areas were unique. Nowhere else in Destin can you have the beautiful Gulf of Mexico and white sand beaches, access also to the Destin Harbor via the canal and marina for boating and paddleboarding, and the ability to be a few minutes walk to Norriego Point for secluded jetty snorkeling and harbor watching. It was the best of all worlds.

What makes this property unique

We love our unit because it's been recently remodeled and the furnishings and updates are beautiful. We can enjoy time on the deck overlooking the golf course and pool. And kids can enjoy the pool which is just steps away, as well as the 9-hole par 3 golf course on the resort.
