Notes from the host
The Dock Inn
“Welcome to The Dock Inn” ~
Whether you choose to arrive navigating the waterways to our dock with a private 42' upland slip, or arrive via vehicle, we want to ensure you receive a warm welcome to our waterfront “hidden jewel of a townhome” on Holiday Isle. Professionally managed locally 24/7 by iTrip Destin & Miramar Beach.
Calming, serene water views and sunny days, on our spacious sundeck overlooking the canal will not disappoint! We are fortunate to be one of the few, in the area, with a private 42' upland boat slip, capable of supporting a boat/yacht. Admire individuals on kayaks, paddleboards, jet skis, along with the yachts and boats, slowly cruising through the canal as they travel in & out of the harbor for their daily adventures. Take the stress out of driving and take full advantage of calling the Destin Water Taxi for a pick-up and drop-off, to and from our dock to a plethora of restaurants, shopping, water sports, & entertainment throughout the harbor.
Stroll .3 miles to the public beach access, Osteen Beach, or .5 miles to the private beach access at Norriego Point or Moreno Point, to enjoy the sugar-white sand between your toes & soak in the crystal-clear waters for a free dose of Vitamin D!
Upon arrival, the condo is a self-check-in residence with a private entry code allowing you to enjoy your vacation without the worry of misplacing your keys.
