Looking for Gulf-Front at Hidden Dunes? This Fifth-Floor Condo Stands Alone.

Beachfront condos at Hidden Dunes do not come to market every day.

And right now, buyers looking specifically for an elevated Gulf view have essentially one option.

Listed for sale by Ocean Reef Real Estate Sales, Gulfside 505 at Hidden Dunes Beach & Tennis Resort is currently the only condominium for sale in the building offering an elevated Gulf-front view. The only other available residence is located on the ground floor and does not offer the same full Gulf-view experience.

Offered at $899,000, this beautifully renovated two-bedroom, two-bath residence sits on the fifth floor of the coveted Gulfside building, pairing sweeping beach and Gulf views with updated interiors, resort amenities, and an established place in the Ocean Reef Resorts vacation rental program.

For buyers who have been waiting for the right combination of Gulf-front location, elevated views, renovated condition, and rental potential, Gulfside 505 stands apart.

A Fifth-Floor View That Changes the Experience

There is beachfront ownership, and then there is waking up several stories above the shoreline with the Gulf filling the windows.

Gulfside 505 sits on the fifth floor of the Gulfside building at Hidden Dunes, giving the residence a broad perspective across the sugar-white beach and emerald water below.

An entire wall of floor-to-ceiling glass and sliding doors brings that view directly into the main living space, while the large private balcony extends the living area outdoors.

It is the kind of balcony built for the moments people come to Miramar Beach for in the first place—quiet mornings with coffee, long afternoons overlooking the water, and sunsets that require very little entertainment beyond a chair and a view.

Renovated Coastal Interiors

The interior has been thoughtfully updated with a clean coastal style that feels comfortable enough for everyday use while still delivering the polished atmosphere expected from a beachfront residence.

Wide-plank flooring runs through the primary living areas, while shiplap accents, updated furnishings, and natural light create a relaxed coastal setting.

The renovated kitchen includes granite countertops, custom white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a breakfast bar with seating, opening directly to the dining and living areas.

That open layout keeps the Gulf in view whether you are preparing breakfast, sitting down for dinner, or relaxing in the living room after a day on the beach.

At approximately 1,292 square feet, the residence offers more breathing room than many traditional two-bedroom beachfront condominiums.

A Gulf-Front Primary Suite

The Primary Suite takes full advantage of the home’s beachfront setting.

Large windows frame the water, while private balcony access allows owners and guests to step directly outside without passing through the main living area.

The suite includes a king bed, generous space, and a renovated private bath with a double vanity and large walk-in shower.

The guest bedroom is equally practical for vacation use, featuring two queen beds and convenient access to the updated second bathroom with a tub and shower combination.

Combined with a queen sleeper sofa in the living room, Gulfside 505 accommodates up to six overnight guests under current HOA regulations.

For an owner considering vacation rental income, that layout offers the flexibility to attract couples, families, and small groups without sacrificing the comfort expected from a higher-end Gulf-front property.

Hidden Dunes Beach & Tennis Resort

The condominium is only part of the story.

Hidden Dunes Beach & Tennis Resort occupies approximately 27 acres along one of Miramar Beach’s most desirable stretches of shoreline, offering a gated environment with private beach access and extensive resort amenities.

Owners and guests enjoy access to a beachfront swimming pool, hot tub, fitness center, basketball court, playground, pavilion, landscaped grounds, and six championship-grade Rubico tennis courts.

A private boardwalk places the beach only moments from Gulfside 505.

The location also keeps owners close to many of Miramar Beach and Sandestin’s most popular destinations, including Silver Sands Premium Outlets, Grand Boulevard, Baytowne Wharf, dining, shopping, golf, and the communities of Scenic Highway 30A.

It offers the combination many second-home buyers are looking for: enough amenities to feel like a true resort, while remaining convenient to everything outside the gates.

Already Part of the Ocean Reef Resorts Rental Program

Gulfside 505 is currently represented by Ocean Reef Resorts as a vacation rental, giving prospective buyers something particularly useful: an existing rental presence rather than a blank slate.

Ocean Reef has served Destin, Miramar Beach, and the surrounding Emerald Coast for more than four decades, providing local vacation rental management, marketing, reservations, guest services, housekeeping coordination, and property support.

For a buyer who intends to use the condominium as both a personal beach retreat and an income-producing vacation property, an established rental history can provide valuable insight into how the residence performs with vacation guests.

Of course, future rental performance is never guaranteed, and buyers should review current rental history, expenses, HOA requirements, and projected ownership costs with the appropriate professionals before purchasing.

One of the Few Chances to Buy in Gulfside

Beachfront real estate is always limited by one obvious fact: they are not making any more beachfront.

Inside a specific building, scarcity becomes even more pronounced.

At the time of publication, Gulfside 505 is one of only two condominiums available for purchase in the Gulfside building at Hidden Dunes, and the only available residence positioned above the ground floor.

That makes this more than simply another two-bedroom condominium listing.

It is an opportunity to own a renovated, furnished, Gulf-front residence with an elevated fifth-floor view inside one of Miramar Beach’s established gated beachfront communities.

For the buyer who has been waiting for the right combination of view, location, condition, resort amenities, and vacation rental potential, Gulfside 505 deserves a closer look.
