Some vacations are about getting away.

Others are about going all the way up.

There is a certain traveler who wants the penthouse. More space. More privacy. Bigger views. A balcony that becomes part of the trip. And accommodations that feel worthy of the occasion.

At Majestic Sun in Miramar Beach, the top floor is where things get interesting.

We took a fresh look at the penthouses we know best—from the completely one-of-a-kind residence suspended above Majestic Sun’s iconic arch to three-bedroom retreats designed for families and couples who simply want more room, more comfort, and one of the best perspectives on the Gulf.

What if Fall Break looked like this?

A warm afternoon on 30A. The kids are in the pool. Beach towels are still drying from the morning. Bikes are waiting for later. Dinner can happen on the patio, and the Gulf is close enough for one more walk before sunset.

We pulled together 8 Ocean Reef vacation homes with private pools for Fall Break, ranging from a large 8-bedroom retreat that sleeps 30 to smaller homes made for an easy family getaway.

Some add heated pools and spas. Others bring guest houses, game rooms, fire pits, bikes, outdoor bars, and easy beach access. All of them give you more ways to enjoy the home itself—not just where you’re headed next.

Take a look at all 8 here:

FOR SALE: Gulfview 117 | Miramar Beach, FL

Front building. Corner unit. Ground floor. And right now, the only condo for sale in Gulfview I.

That combination — along with a price point that may surprise you — is exactly why our phones are already ringing about this one.

Gulfview has long been one of those Miramar Beach communities people remember because it keeps the beach experience simple: low-rise buildings, private gated beach access directly across Scenic Gulf Drive, a community pool, and a location that puts you close to everything without feeling like a massive resort.

But within Gulfview, Gulfview I is the front building — the one positioned closest to Scenic Gulf Drive and the beach.

And Unit 117 has another advantage.

It sits on the ground-floor west corner, giving the condo an additional side window, more natural light, and a Gulf view from the covered patio.

Inside, the one-bedroom residence has already been updated with a bright coastal look, quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, tile flooring, refreshed furnishings, and an updated bathroom with a tiled walk-in shower.

The layout sleeps up to four with a king bedroom and queen sleeper sofa, making it equally interesting as a personal beach retreat, second home, or vacation rental.

And this is not a property with a hypothetical rental story.

Gulfview 117 is already on the Ocean Reef Resorts vacation rental program.

We know this condo firsthand. We know what guests respond to. And again and again, they mention the same things that stand out to buyers: the location, easy beach access, updated interior, cleanliness, and convenience of being on the ground floor.

What owners and guests enjoy:

• Gulfview I front-building location
• Ground-floor west-end corner position
• Gulf views
• Private gated beach access
• Community swimming pool
• Updated and furnished interior
• Established Ocean Reef vacation rental history
• Scenic Gulf Drive location in the heart of Miramar Beach

There are plenty of condos for sale along the beach.

There is only one available in Gulfview I right now.

And when that one happens to be a furnished, ground-floor corner unit in the front building, it gets attention.

Then there’s the price.

For a condo this close to the Gulf, with private beach access, an established rental history, and this position within the community, Gulfview 117 is far more attainable than many buyers would probably guess.

That combination of location, scarcity, and value is a big reason the calls have already started.

Christmas in Destin looks a little different. 🎄🌴

Think sugar-white sand instead of snow, Gulf views instead of frosted windows, and one big vacation home where the whole family can stay together.

We’ve rounded up 12 of our biggest Destin-area homes still available for Christmas this year, with space for groups of 16 to 32 guests. If you want to get the whole family under one roof, now is the time to book before the biggest homes are spoken for. Private pools, guest houses, game rooms, rooftop decks, beachfront settings and plenty of room for Christmas dinner are all in the mix.

We’re dropping all 12 homes in the comments. See one you like? Reply to that home’s comment, and we’ll send you the full details. 👇

You know Destin. You may even know Crystal Beach.

But there’s a good chance you haven’t had lunch at all three of these places — and that’s exactly why we went looking.

We spent some time around Crystal Beach photographing three very different lunch stops, each with its own personality. One puts you practically on the sand with Gulf views stretching past the dunes. Another feels like the neighborhood cafe you wish every beach town had. The third brings a laid-back, surfy energy with a casual cafe downstairs and an open-air spot upstairs.

And the food? Fish tacos, stacked sandwiches, iced coffee, fresh coastal flavors, and the kind of lunch that somehow tastes better when you can still see the Gulf.

Our three stops:

•Cantina Beach Bar at Henderson Park Inn — beachfront, relaxed and all about the view.

•Camille’s Cafe — a longtime Crystal Beach favorite just steps from Scenic Highway 98.

•Sandos Beachside — casual, colorful and one of those places that feels like a find.

We photographed all three and put together a closer look at what makes each one worth trying.

Destin just added 340 feet of public beach. 🌊

The new Tarpon Beach Gulf Front Park is officially open in Crystal Beach—with free parking, restrooms, four pavilions and dedicated parking for low-speed vehicles.

And if Tarpon Beach sounds familiar, there’s a reason. This has been a beach access for years. What was once a much smaller neighborhood access has now become one of Destin’s newest Gulf-front public parks.

Swipe through for a look at the new park—including the ribbon-cutting that officially opened it this summer.

We put together everything you need to know about the new Tarpon Beach Gulf Front Park—including parking, location, amenities, and a little history: https://oreef.co/new-destin-beach

Labor Day at the beach… but which view are you choosing? 🌊☀️

We pulled together 9 Gulf-front buildings in Destin, Miramar Beach, and along 30A that still give you that true “walk out and you’re at the beach” experience for the holiday weekend.

Some are full-service resorts with pools, dining, and plenty to do. Others are quieter, low-rise favorites where the Gulf is the main event.

Scroll through the album and tell us which one you’d pick for Labor Day. 👇

Then comment LABORDAY and we’ll send you our full list of featured Gulf-front condos and availability.

Because if you’re squeezing in one more long beach weekend before fall really begins… you might as well wake up looking at the Gulf. 🌴
