Grand Boulevard Town Center is a pedestrian-friendly, shopping and dining complex just off Emerald Coast Parkway, convenient to both SanDestin and Miramar Beach. For the high-end shopper, the center offers everything from Fusion Art Glass Gallery to Brooks Brothers Country Club. A number of boutiques, such as Hello, Sunshine, and Magnolia House, carry fare you can't find anywhere else. Dining options include Mitchell's Fish Market, P. F. Chang's China Bistro, and Cantina Laredo Gourmet Mexican Food. In 2013, Walton County’s first movie theater opened at Grand Boulevard’s Town Center – the state-of-the-art Boulevard 10 Movie Theater.
If you are near Miramar Beach, the snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Dolphin Reef, deployed in 2017. Located just 685 feet straight out from the Miramar Regional Public Beach access (by Pompano Joe's), it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Dolphin Reef is at a depth of 12-20 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

Complete up front window of entire parking lot. Nice view of large ceiling to floor glass & sliding door to very large balcony with wooden chase loungers and bar table for 4, and cushioned love seat.Nice view of Gulf of America.
Property was exactly as described. Location was close to everything you need. Rooms were spacious and bunk room would be perfect for kids. We had 2 adults in them and both said if they were over 5’9 it’d be tight but great for what we needed. Would absolutely go back
Great experience and condo. Easy to get in and out. Great communication.
There was some construction going on but it is understandable. If you want a property that is kept up and updated, they have to work on it sometime.
Great place to stay.

Excellent!
We would absolutely stay here again. It was perfect for two adults and two teens. Perfect view, very nice condo and felt at home the whole week. When we arrived the coffe pot and blender were broke. We called the service number and new ones were delivered within an hour. We had a wonderful vacation, beautiful weather and made great memories. Thank you for a great place to stay and excellent service!
We had a great week on the beach! The condo was lovely and spacious. We ate dinners on the balcony every evening and even enjoyed fireworks there one night! It is an easy walk to the beach. It could benefit from some new couches and new chairs at the table. We cooked most of our food and the kitchen supplies were a little sparse. The grocery stores are very close. However, I would definitely go back! You just can’t beat that beautiful water and sugar soft sand!
The location of the condo was ideal and just a short walk from the beach. It had enough room for our family (6) and all appliances/TVs worked well. Absolutely love that there was a washer and dryer on site. Only suggestion would be to make sure you bring laundry detergent, surface cleaners (409/bleach), coffee filters, garbage bags, dish detergent and your own beach towels.
There were no extras, but we were able to get all the beach toys at one of 4 Alvin’s around us. There is also a Whole Foods and Publix near by.
We would stay here again, but come with all items needed

Best family vacation ever!!!
This was a trip of many firsts for my family. We’ve never taken all 3 of our kids on a beach vacation, we’d never been to this part of Florida & we’d never rented a condo. Of course there were many anxieties about how it would go travel wise & our expectations of the condo vs what we were gonna get. I have to say, this rental was above and beyond our expectations. It was cleaned to perfection, the beds were super comfy, the views were superb and having Cabana Cafe downstairs was such a lifesaver when we were too exhausted to cook. We just got home and the kids are already missing the condo. We will definitely be returning.
The Hamsayeh Family
The place was very spacious. All of the beds were very comfortable. Even though we were not on the beach, we had a great view and the walk was not bad at all. The unit had everything we needed. There are a couple of things that need to be updated. The rugs through out were extremely dirty. The ice maker did not work, but maintenance brought us a bag of ice. We will consider this place again. Thank for inviting us into your home.
This was my family’s quick getaway before the start of the new school year, and my 7 year old asked to go to her favorite beach. We found this unit and booked it right away. We stay in Ariel Dunes whenever we come to town and we are never disappointed. The unit was clean, we found that the master bed was broken when we went to bed the first night, but management came by the next day and fixed it. The view of the gulf is always spectacular, and it’s just a short walk to the beach. The kitchen was stocked, missing a spatula, but the frying pan was non-stick…so we made it work. For the price, we think we found a deal, and the unit was beautifully decorated. We will definitely book again.

Great Family Vacation Rental
Perfect size for a family rental with kids. Pools are great and having the cabana cafe was a huge plus for convenient lunch, drinks, snacks! Easy walk to beach and beautiful beach view from balcony. Easy parking and convenient location for restaurants, grocery, and shopping.
Recommendation for improvement- carpets were very stained and did not feel clean. We had to keep shoes on. Tile floor would help.
Top bunk bed does not have a rail. We had to take the mattress off and put it on the floor for child safety. Invest in a safety rail.
Overall great condo!

Not the best condo but sufficient.
The beautiful outside table seen in the picture was filthy and warped in real life, along with all of the other outside furniture. The couches were stained. The fridge water tasted awful, and to top it all off, there was no onsite hot tub!! So disappointed. The beds were comfortable though. It’s sufficient as a modified hotel room just not as a condo. Would not stay again.

Ooh that smell
The condo itself was very nice. Everything you need is supplied. Comfortable bed, plenty of room. Now the down side, the sulfur smelling water was shocking. The first night I was so looking forward to a nice hot bath. Needless to say the sulfur/rotten egg smell was so overwhelming I could finish the bath. Every time we needed to bathe or brush our teeth we were hit with that rotten egg smell. Called the front desk and all they could offer was room deodorizer. I hate that this is an issue at this condo otherwise a nice stay.
Don’t think you are going to get all your information a week in advance to check in. We had to contact them several times the day of checking and didn’t get it till 30 minutes after check in time.
The unit is nice but lack of cleaning has it little grungy. I’ve never seen a vacation rental that has signs plastered all over. Seems childish.
Personally I would keep looking, I want the check in information before I make a 12 Hr drive knowing my unit is secure.

Decent on a budget
While the view was spectacular, it was clear no one had occupied the property for several weeks. All the faucets smelled of sulfur for the first day-and-a-half we were there. The host could have provided more paper goods and maybe a starter pod for laundry. The refrigerator had no working water/ice. Appliances need an update. We would call this "a decent option on a budget". Not terrible at all (again, a fabulous ocean view). But not overly impressive, either.
Our family enjoyed our stay here. The check-in process was very easy and condo was clean. The balcony was a great place to enjoy meals or just relax and take in the view. The bunkbed room is small and I agree with other reviews that a bedrail would be a nice addition for the top bunk. The bunkbed room stayed very hot and we had to put a fan in there to stay cool. There is a window in the bunkbed room and other bedroom that are off the main walk-way but it was not noisy. Elevators move fairly quickly and parking never was an issue. Nice pool that was never crowded and nice workout room. The cons, as other people have mentioned, included the dryer, microwave, and mold on master bathroom ceiling. The dryer did not work well and even after several cycles, clothes were not dry. It also made horrible loud screeching noises. We did call the property management, as others have, so hopefully it has been fixed for future guests. The microwave could be replaced - rust inside. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.

Condo review
Unit was not very clean. Coffee pot went out first day and received a replacement by management which with a $16 / 5 cup unit very cheap. Couch covers need to be replaced with good furniture. Bunk beds need security railing. Entire unit needs an update. Too far to carry items to the beach which was very crowded
The condo was very clean and the beds were amazing. The view is fantastic and the elevator situation isn’t bad at all. The top bunk bed for the kids has no railing on it, so it was a little scary having a 7 year old sleeping up there. The condo could use a pizza pan and pizza cutter since that’s a fast convenient meal for families with children. The dryer didn’t work well at all. We had to dry clothes 3 times to get them fully dry, and while they were drying, the dryer made a really loud screeching noise the entire time. I called to have it fixed, but it was never fixed during our stay. The dryer situation was my only complaint. We washed clothes and towels a lot during our stay, so the drier situation was really annoying.
We loved this property. Would go again. Close to the beach. Great views of the beach from the balcony. Plenty of space for our family of five. We had a few minor issues that could be addressed, but nothing that would cause me to not recommend.

Great area, close to the beach
The property could be excellent, but it has old appliances and the microwave is unusable because it is rusted out in side. The master bath has mold on the floor boards by the shower. And the couch covers were very dirty. I will say it is a nice size and the layout is great. The views from the balcony are wonderful. the complex grounds are secure. There is plenty of parking and access to the beach is close and easy to get to by walking.
The pictures on line did not do justice to the spectacular view from the entire balcony. Extremely clean and well maintained. The only issue is that the tv's in the bedrooms did not work, could not get any channels. Would highly recommend.
