KEY Curation Notes

This is the closest building in the community to both the beach boardwalks and the year-round heated Dunesider pool, putting the water and the water views within easy reach on foot.
Active exterior construction is underway on the building through 2026. Expect some visible work, boarded windows on certain units, and possible limits on balcony, garage, or parking access during the stay — worth setting expectations accordingly.
A private deeded beach access point and a complimentary daily beach setup (two chairs and an umbrella, March through October) come with the condo.
Community access is capped at two vehicles through the security gate, with no exceptions for quick drop-offs.
The primary suite has its own private bath, while the second bedroom's two queen beds share a connected bathroom — a straightforward, no-surprises layout for two couples or a family.

Perfect location - easy access to pool and private beach. Loved the security on site that made it feel private and safe. Condo was clean and had everything we needed for our time in Watersound. Will be back for sure!

Sea Turtle Facts

South Walton’s sugar-white sand beaches are a big draw for visitors, but they’re also home to some of the area’s tiniest residents. During the months of May through October, endangered sea turtles build nests in that sand, and need the help and consideration of human beachgoers in order to thrive and survive.

Sea turtles are protected by the Endangered Species Act.

Loggerhead and Green Sea Turtles typically nest on our beaches.

Nesting season is May 1–Oct. 31.

Hatchlings are guided to the Gulf by the moon. White lights confuse them.

The temperature of the sand determines the sex of the hatchlings.

Sea turtles return to the beach where they were born to lay their eggs.

Mama sea turtles lay about 100 eggs in a nest and tend to lay 3–5 nests.

In 2021, 624 hatchlings made it to the Gulf in Walton County.

Call *FWC or 850-865-4503 if you see a sea turtle.

To keep our beaches clean and safe for both marine life and beachgoers, Walton County enforces Municipal Code 22-54 (g). This code prohibits beach chairs, umbrellas, tents and other personal items from being left unattended. Items left on the beach overnight (from one hour after dusk to one hour after sunrise) will be discarded unless otherwise permitted. Your cooperation with this municipal code will ensure the area's beaches remain pristine while also ensuring that personal articles do not interfere with nesting sea turtles, beach maintenance and emergency vehicles.
