About this property

Gulf Front 2000sqf Condo, Large Balcony, Private Beach & Pool, Free Beach Setup

Oceania 706 is a spacious Gulf front condo with three bedrooms and three bathrooms, located on the 7th floor, with magnificent views of the Gulf of Mexico. Upon entering the condo, the first thing you will notice is the floor-to-ceiling windows offering unobstructed panoramic views of the emerald-green Gulf of Mexico and the sugar-white sandy beach.

Oceania is a gated condominium with one of the most extensive private beaches in the area. With only 71 units in the entire building, Oceania is considered a low-density building giving everyone plenty of room on the beach. Amenities include a private beach, beach service (two beach chairs and umbrella set up daily - Mar-Oct), reserved covered parking, swimming pool, fitness room, gas grills, wireless internet, enhanced cable TV package, and keyless access.

The condo also offers an impressive balcony where you can see for miles from the 7th floor! Enjoy your morning coffee, afternoon lunches, and relaxing dinners, all while watching the beautiful ocean waves. The balcony can be accessed from three different sliding glass doors and offers lounge chairs and tables. You will enjoy entertaining or just relaxing every day and night on the balcony. Curl up and read your favorite book, watch the dolphins swim by, or enjoy the ocean breeze as life’s pressures melt away.

The kitchen has newer kitchen cabinets, higher-end appliances and is fully equipped with all the tools you need to prepare your favorite meals.

The large living and dining area has a bar with a stand-alone ice maker ready for your entertaining. The spacious living room will give everyone plenty of room to spread out. Sofa sheets are provided for the sofa sleeper to allow the condo to sleep up to eight. The living room has a 63" flat-screen smart TV with an upgraded TV package.

The master bedroom has a wall of windows overlooking the gulf, 47" TV, a huge walk-in closet, and the bathroom offers a double vanity, a Jacuzzi bathtub, and a separate walk-in shower.

The second and third bedrooms each have private baths, queen-sized beds, large closets, and 32" LED TVs. All of the bathrooms are equipped with hairdryers.

Oceania is located on Holiday Isle which is a small peninsula in the Destin area. This peninsula is only a few miles in length and is surrounded by Destin Harbor to the north and the Gulf of Mexico to the south. Holiday Isle is off the beaten path but centrally located, where you are literally minutes away from all the shopping, dining, fishing, amusements, golf, and fun the Destin area offers. Destin has abundant water-view restaurants and fun dockside bars; plenty of restaurants from formal dining to fast food to your classic mom-and-pop. Destin offers a world-class charter fishing fleet, sailing excursions, sunset cruises, dolphin cruises, pleasure boat rentals, diving, and snorkeling trips. Nearby are abundant shopping opportunities from exclusive boutiques to outlet stores to antique shops. Numerous golf courses and amusement parks are only a short drive away. And don’t forget the beautiful Emerald Coast with the whitest sand with the softest grain you’ll ever feel.

Looking for something to do in the fall? Check out Destin in October!! The Destin Seafood Festival and the annual Destin Fishing Rodeo take place in October, and they are a lot of fun.

Relaxing Get-Away!
This condo was amazing!! One of the best places we have ever stayed! The oversized balcony, the full wall of windows in the master bedroom overlooking the ocean, the private beach, the designated parking spot and the ease to access the condo were all positives! Marcia was a great communicator and responsive to all our needs. Highly recommend!

Amazing condo and location
We’ve stayed in Destin several times but this was by far the best location we’ve stayed at. It was spacious with an amazing balcony and quick walk to the pool and beach! With 4 adults and 4 littles, it never felt crowded and they had a blast!

About the host

Hosted by Marcia Matthias

Host profile image
Ken and Marcia Matthias made a dream come true when they purchased Oceania 706 from the Hines family in December 2014. The Matthias' have been vacationing on Holiday Isle in Destin with their two daughters and close friends since 1993.

Why they chose this property

Prior to 2014, we had rented condos at other complexes on Holiday Ilse. In September 2014, we rented a condo in Oceania for the first time and immediately realized we had found the ideal property in Destin. Oceania offers so much more than most condos - from the large balcony overlooking the beautiful serene Gulf to the large, open floor plan to the awesome beach - it is just the perfect place.

What is unique about Oceania is overall, the complex is small, consisting of 9 floors and 71 gulf-front units with only 24 actively on the rental program. The complexes to the right and left of Oceania are also on the small side and do not allow rentals. Therefore a vacationer has plenty of sandy white beach and ocean waves to enjoy. We believe you will find the privacy and quality to entice you to make this your vacation destination.

Bennett Development constructed Oceania. Their detail and quality in building exceed all others.

What makes this property unique

The complex is immaculately maintained. Nice perks include a covered parking place, keyless entry, a remote opener for the front gate, an ice machine in the condo, and free beach service (one umbrella and two chairs)! We also give our guests access to our owner's closet, which is loaded with beach chairs, toys, coolers, nets, etc.

Destin is known for deep-sea fishing, gorgeous sunsets, and shopping galore. Oceania is literally minutes from everything - Paradise awaits you!
