Backyard Beach
Set along the sparkling shores of Miramar Beach, this oceanfront retreat brings the beauty of the Emerald Coast right to the backyard. A private sandy trail leads directly to sugar-white beaches and brilliant blue waters, while three outdoor spaces showcase unobstructed Gulf views. The upper deck offers an inviting setting for sunset dining in the ocean breeze, and the lower level features a luxurious hot tub and comfortable shaded seating overlooking the shore. Inside, contemporary décor complements a spacious main-floor gathering area, four bedrooms, generous bunk accommodations, and a primary suite with its own private balcony. A wet bar and laundry add thoughtful convenience to the refined coastal setting. Beyond the shoreline, the home offers easy access to the best of Miramar Beach and nearby Destin. Local coffee shops, restaurants, wine tasting, and shopping are just a short drive away, along with favorites such as Destin Commons and Silver Sands Premium Outlets. Days can be filled with dolphin cruises, charter fishing, golf, water parks, or an excursion to Crab Island before returning home to unwind beside the Gulf. With the beach just steps away and endless Emerald Coast experiences nearby, this inviting escape creates an effortless setting for memorable days by the sea.
