Hidden Dunes 405 proves that you can have it all: a waterfront location just steps from the beach, a 3-bedroom condo that’s as spacious as it is elegant, amenities including a pool and a spa, and a huge balcony with a spectacular view of the Gulf of Mexico.

When you first step into Hidden Dunes 405, you probably won’t notice the view right away. You’ll be too busy admiring the majestic entryway, with its regal columns, elegant furnishings, and beautiful tiled floor. But as you come inside, you can’t miss the wall of picture windows that look out over the pool to the sparkling turquoise gulf. From just about everywhere in the great room you can watch seabirds swoop and soar above the waves.

Sliding glass doors lead out to the covered balcony, which stretches the length of the condo—and given that Hidden Dunes 405 is 2,300 square feet, that’s an impressive length. There are enough chairs and tables on the balcony for everyone to sip their morning coffee or juice while scanning the surf for dolphins. Because the condo is on the 4th floor, the view is all the more dramatic. At sunset, you can gather to watch the fiery colors of the sky reflected in the water, and before turning in you can try to count the stars in the night sky.

Back inside, once you turn your gaze away from the vista of sea meeting sky, you can sprawl out on one of the great room’s couches or chaise and watch a movie on the flat-screen TV with cable or surf the web via the free WiFi. You can dine in the great room as well: There’s a table that seats 4 plus a breakfast bar with room for 3 more. Hidden Dunes 405 also has a separate formal dining room. Perhaps you’ll want to take all your meals there and reserve the great room’s table for board games and crafts.

Even if you prefer making reservations to cooking, you’ll love Hidden Dunes 405’s kitchen. Large enough to accommodate several chefs, it’s equipped with a full array of appliances, gadgets, pots, pans, and tableware, as well as plenty of counter space—and you can look out onto the gulf while working your culinary magic. Another mealtime option is to barbecue outdoors in the complex’s grill area and dine alfresco in the roomy gazebo. The salt-kissed breeze makes everything from burgers to kabobs taste even better. And of course, if you don’t want to cook indoors or outdoors, you can head to one of the many nearby restaurants.

Hidden Dunes 405 has 3 bedrooms, each of which features a TV with a DVD player and, maybe even more important, its own bathroom. Having a full bathroom for each bedroom means you can indulge in a lengthy shower or bath without a line forming on the other side of the door. The master suite is especially luxe, with a sumptuous king-size bed, an extra-large bathroom, and glass doors that open onto the balcony. After the others have turned in, you and your sweetheart can slip outside and marvel at the moon’s reflection in the gulf before heading back inside and letting the rhythm of the surf lull you to sleep. The second bedroom is outfitted with a queen-size bed. And the third bedroom, with two queen-sized beds, is perfect for the kids.

The luxuries of Hidden Dunes extend beyond your unit. Because the complex has only 70 units, the large gulf-front swimming pool will never feel crowded. There are a kids’ pool and a spa as well, plus a patio ringed with palm trees where you can laze in the sunshine. A private walkway connects the complex to the sugary beach, perfect for gathering shells when you’re not swimming, canoeing, parasailing, paddleboarding, or kayaking in the gulf. And if that’s not enough exercise for you, head to Hidden Dunes’ gym, equipped with weights and machines.

There’s only one drawback to staying at Hidden Dunes 405: You might never want to leave! Book your reservation today, and experience the Florida vacation you’ve always dreamed of.
