From beachfront vacation condos to bay front estates, the Pensacola, Pensacola Beach and Perdido Key areas are home to a variety of “premier” property types. The question though, is what defines these properties as luxury for you?

Well, two new condominium developments planned for Perdido Key, Florida are luxury in style for sure. The most recent completed development, Vista Del Mar, is a nine-story, Gulf front project. The modern 64-upscale condominium project complete this past summer is a combination of location and sophisticated amenities.  Sitting with it’s unrestricted views of the Gulf and its neighbor on a protected haven of nature and bike trails on the Gulf Islands National Seashore ensures that your view, your tranquility and your peace of mind will always be preserved.
