About this property
Destined for Fun, House, Cabana, Pool + few steps to beach
Welcome to "Destined for Fun," a truly one-of-a-kind, 5 bedroom, 5.5 bath vacation home with a private pool and cabana house! Destined For Fun is only two houses from the beach entrance (yes, seriously....only 2 houses away) and located in the beautiful residential community of Crystal Beach. If being extremely close to the beach is what you are looking for, then "Destined For Fun" is destined for you!
The front door is only 75 to 85 steps ( depending on your size step) away from the sugar white sand beaches of Destin! You will also have a breathtaking views of the Gulf of America from this amazing beach home. For your convenience, a pull cart will be available to help you easily get your toys, ice chests or beach gear to the beach and back. ( Many toys, sand pails, etc. in storage room at home)
When you return from all the fun at the beach, you'll have plenty of space to relax in your very own 24x12 private pool ( PS: ask us about optional pool heat), complete with a pool deck, filled with comfy furniture, and a separate pool Cabana House. This means your family can soak up the sun, take a splash in the pool and cook out on the BBQ grill while enjoying all the amenities that this spectacular home has to offer. The Cabana House is a one-bedroom hideaway ( perfect for teenagers or maybe even the grandparents who want a peaceful place of their own). The Cabana House features a full bath, kitchenette, and living room. It can sleep up to 4 people comfortably with a King bed and a Queen sleeper sofa. It also sports a full bath and big walk in closet
Take a step inside the main house to enjoy the open living room with a large flat-screen TV, and an extra-large sectional sofa for extra seating. This is the perfect gathering spot! The connecting dining room seats 10, with additional seating at the kitchen bar. Enjoy cooking at home with the beautiful island kitchen that features granite counters and is fully equipped with everything you need to make your favorite meal. Destined for Fun features 4 King bedrooms all with ensuite bathrooms, so everyone can sleep in luxury. Your kids will love the bunk room located on the 2nd floor that includes both a Twin-over-Twin and a Full-over-Full set of bunk beds. Every room features a large flat-screen TV and tons of windows to enjoy the beautiful sunshine of Florida! If you are looking for the perfect spot for a morning coffee, make your way up the spiral staircase to the observation deck with gulf views.
The beach isn't the only attraction at this home! Destined For Fun is within walking distance of the popular outdoor Destin Commons mall which features restaurants, retail shops, a fish-themed bowling alley and the AMC digital movie theater. Restaurants include El Jalisco's, World of Beer, Uncle Buck's Fish Bowl, Chipotle, Johnny Rockets, Red Brick Pizza, Zoe's Kitchen, Yuga Japanese Sushi, and Kilwin's Ice Cream just to name a few.
Destined For Fun is also within a very few blocks of some local eateries. Enjoy your morning coffee at the Camille's which is not only great for breakfast but also offers excellent sushi and fresh seafood for dinner. There are many areas also for catching a beautiful sunset both at the house and on the beach.
Book your dream vacation at Destined For Fun and make memories that will last forever!!!!!
