Pros
- Lovely pool with nice landscaping, lounge chairs, and umbrellas
- Large, Gulf-facing balconies
- 42-seat movie theater
- Largest condo sleeps 8
- Gym is dark but decently equipped and open 24 hours
Cons
- Not exactly beachfront -- across small road
- Not all units have dishwashers
- Fee for Wi-Fi
Bottom Line
Sterling Shores is one of the nicer (and larger) condo resorts in the Destin area. The property has a bit more style than the competition, though the bar isn't especially high. The rooms are bright and airy, and there are two pools at the resort. While all units have a Gulf view, the beach is actually across a small road. With special events for kids and a small movie theater, Sterling Shores is a great choice for families.
