15200 Emerald Coast Parkway 803, Destin, FL 32541 (MLS# 1003632)

A semi-private elevator opens directly into this renovated, eighth-floor residence at St. Maarten. Spanning 1,693 square feet, Unit 803 features floor-to-ceiling glass and unobstructed views of the Gulf. Sold turn-key, it serves effectively as both a private coastal retreat and a performing asset. The floor plan is anchored by a dual-master layout, supplemented by a bunk room, comfortably sleeping eight. Both master bedrooms feature king beds, updated ensuite baths, and direct access to the beach-facing balcony. The living and dining areas integrate seamlessly with a modern stainless-steel kitchen and in-unit laundry for immediate, frictionless use. Silver Shells delivers a comprehensive amenity package: a Gulf-front lagoon pool, an indoor/outdoor pool, an on-site spa, and a fitness center. Property grounds include six pickleball courts, two tennis courts, gated entry, and covered garage parking. Complimentary beach service is included from March through October. The numbers back the asset. Managed by Compass Resorts with a 5.0-star guest rating, the unit already has $82,380 booked for 2026. Hold it for the revenue, use it as a personal beachfront property, or run both. The infrastructure is in place to handle the operations while you control the equity.
