Overall we were pretty satisfied with this condo. The only minor blips I feel need to be addressed are the leaky fridge and taking a look at the bar stools. One of them was pretty shaky with a damaged leg. Once some appliances get upgraded and some minor repairs on furniture then a perfect score is in sight. 9.5 rating for our stay.

Perfect place to stay

I took my 2 children and 3 granddaughters to Destin in August 2025. The condo was in the perfect location. Pleanty of room for everyone. The condo has a box fan for sleeping noise, you dont hear anything in the master bedroom. The flashlights that had were perfect for night time crab hunting. I enjoyed the patio dinning. The view from the condo is breath taking. We really liked the convenience of the beach being steps away. Absolutely loved the location. We will be staying here again for sure.

Direct Beach Access!

Went on our first trip to Destin and stayed here. This location was great! Walked right to the beach from our balcony! The property was clean and has a great view of the water. The section of the beach was blocked off for residence only and beach chairs and umbrellas were set out each day by the service. Some of the linens smelled unclean and there were minor damages to the internal furniture and fixtures upon arrival, but other than that the property was just what we were looking for. The neighborhood was family friendly, quiet and about 15-20 minute walks to nearby restaurants and shops.

Patio opens to beach

The room was right on beach which we prefer. Nice quiet area. Equipped for light cooking. Could use skillets that are in better condition, Luckily I brought 2. Safe- even had Amazon deliver to room x2. Enjoyed the beach chairs each day. King bed. Couch comfy. Found a great beach book there in room to read.

Enjoyed the stay little discomfort

Had a good time staying at the property. Enjoyed the view and the location of property. We requested for some additional towels and also mainly requested for the linen and comforter for the pullout sofa. Requested couple of times, they said they will do but never honored. And also the shower drain was very slow creating inconvenience during stay. Other than that all was good.

DO NOT STAY HERE & Don't Book!!!!!!!!

We booked our wedding anniversary stay here bc the pictures and location!! What we walked into is as follows: !. We landed in Florida and still never had a code to enter for our condo after a frustrating dance with calls to get it.... 2. Opening the door on arrival (the smell was awful) the door stopper on the wall just fell off and the chain on the door was broke. For security !!! We couldnt use it! 3. After leaving luggage to look at the rest of the place here is what we found. a) Kitchen refrigerator leaked so much from the freezer inside the refrigerator that there was a puddle of water always! The front of the refigerator was so dirty and sticky, so gross. b)Stove handle was so loose like it was going to break off if we even wanted to use it. c) Dishwasher we couldn't even open fully it was so hard to use. and it was sticky dirty on outside! d) Livingroom couch looked so disgusting like using old slip covers(that were dirty) and it sank in the middle! e) No Screen on the back door. It was laying against the wall outside. We couldn't leave the backdoor open for a breeze or the smell in the unit!!!!!!!! f) The shower leaks at the faucet non stop even on off. The drain didn't drain it took 10min for it to drain while after showering .Its gross with sandy feet trying to get cleaned up. g) & BUGS!!!!!!!!!

Host great. Have stayed in different condos at crystal sands, this one was slightly below expectations when compared to the others. Location great..but the light outside by door illuminated the master bedroom at night even with the shutters closed, no kitchen table (despite pictures), and the kitchen was not well equipped - Teflon frying pans unusable, no silverware teaspoons (only soup size) and did not see any large mixing spoons. This would not stop me from staying here again but if given a choice, to meet my needs, would choose another condo.

We had a great week!

This was our 2nd visit to this condo. They have made some minor improvements since we were there in April. We had some issues with the air conditioner while we were there. The management was great. Had it repaired very quickly. The location to this condo is great! We had 5 adults and it worked well for us. The hot water never ran out in the shower, that was nice!
