Sandy Starfish Professionally Managed by Newman-Dailey
The Gulf of Mexico is home to many fascinating species which thrive in its warm, aqua waters. Of course, dolphins and turtles are some of our favorites, but Destin is also home to the lovely starfish. Named in its honor, Sandy Starfish gives visitors the opportunity to live like this contented creature! Float through calm emerald waves, nestle in soft white sand and enjoy the tranquility of a sunny life by the sea.
Cradled by palms and oaks, Sandy Starfish exudes a peaceful island feel. Two screened-in and furnished porches, colorful furnishings flourishing with sea life inspired textiles, cool tile floors and lots of sunny windows create a smooth ecosystem ideal for lovers of sand and sea. All the water-loving echinoderms (that’s the term for marine life that includes starfish) in your family will be thrilled to lounge in their comfortable bedrooms each with a tropical flare and a dedicated bathroom. Plus, they’ll feel free to use the fully stocked kitchen to prepare their favorite ‘fish food’, and relax at the beach a block away.
Sandy Starfish offers cozy nooks for all in your group. The primary suite in the main house features a luxury bathroom with a spa bathtub and the carriage house over the garage is the ultimate hidey-hole. This separate lodging boasts a living room, a full kitchen and dining room as well as a king size bed and full bathroom- all done in the same island-chic theme as the main house. Truly a place to hideaway and blend in, Sandy Starfish is so welcoming that you’ll instantly feel like a local. All of Destin’s most popular local favorites are nearby. The Destin Commons, dozens of award-winning restaurants, golf courses and beach shops are within a mile’s radius.
With the beach just a few blocks away, Sandy Starfish now provides with each rental a six person golf cart to transport your beach gear to and from the beach. All reservations will automatically include use of golf cart.
