South Seas is a 3000 square foot luxury beach home with partial 
views of the ocean from the 3rd floor and just steps from the sugar 
white beaches and gorgeous emerald waters of Destin, Florida. We are 
located within the gated resort community of Emerald Shores, a 
tropical, family-oriented, beach ownership community of upscale 
homes, situated 100 yards from the Gulf of Mexico. You will enjoy 
the two large heated community pools, the close proximity to the 
beach, access to the beach pavilion, onsite tennis, and the security 
of gated entrances. 

Soft sandy shores and beautiful emerald water are just a leisurely 
stroll from South Seas. The privately owned beach pavilion is for 
Emerald Shores owners and rental guests only (entry code), and is 
accommodated by private bathrooms (entry code), outdoor showers, and 
beach service (chairs and umbrella). Beach tram operates seasonally 
within Emerald Shores.

We are close to restaurants, water sports, and centrally located 
between major golf courses and shopping. We are less than 2 miles 
from two of the largest shopping complexes in Florida. The Silver 
Sands Outlet Mall is the largest designer outlet in the nation and 
the newly opened Destin Commons is a must see. Destin Commons is a 
unique, open-air village, featuring upscale shopping, casual and 
fine dining, and a 14-screen, stadium-seating movie theater located 
1.5 miles west. From South Seas, you can safely bike with the kids 
through the neighborhood and along the paved bike paths for awesome 
beach views, this being our favorite activity. Ask about beach bike 
delivery and pick-up to South Seas! 

From South Seas, you can walk to various beach front restaurants 
including Captain Dave's On The Gulf, Kenny D's Oyster Palace, The 
Crab Trap, or Pompano Joe's Seafood. These restaurants are so close 
and convenient to our home it allows you to effortlessly sample some 
of the local seafood flavors or to just kick back and enjoy the 
relaxing beach views while sipping on a frothy cold tropical 
libation.
