Everything was just wonderful! Great location with private beach area, clean and comfortable furnishings, and everything you could need for a week of relaxation. We had a wonderful stay!
My family and I loved this place. It had an amazing view, well kept and plenty of space for all of us to be comfortable. 100% would recommend to anyone heading to Destin.
We enjoyed a wonderful long weekend in Destin. The property was perfect and the location was ideal for us - not in the middle of the busy and popular activities but in a quieter, family friendly space. The beach was gorgeous. The condo was exactly as described and we were very pleased. We will be back.
Three generations!! We all had a wonderful time. Pristine beach, excellent location, comfortable condo. The kids loved the bunk beds, we appreciated the in-room laundry so much. We’ll stocked kitchen and balcony view is breathtaking.
We absolutely love this property. It is incredibly convenient to the beautiful beach and anything you need in Destin. The beachy decor is gorgeous throughout and had everything our family of 5 needed. The balcony has a beautiful view too. We couldn't have asked for a better week!
Great location! The condo was clean. Beds were comfortable. Only complaint is there were no coffee filters, so we had to make an extra trip to the store in the morning. Otherwise, had a wonderful time! Would rent this condo again.
The condo was located in the Crystal Beach area of Destin which was centrally located to everything, and on a beautiful, pristine white stretch of beach. We were able to see the sunrise and sunset from the spacious balcony as well as dolphins at play in the water near shore. The condo itself was updated, clean and spacious and was both well appointed and well equipped. Will definitely come back to #205 Crystal Dunes!
Just steps away from the beach, our kids enjoyed eating breakfast on the deck and then racing to the beach each morning and dinner followed by a late-night crab hunt. The condo was spacious enough for the four of us and we felt right at home! The only drawback is you have to drive everywhere as there was nothing within walking distance of the property. The beach access was definitely worth that minor inconvenience!
The property was beautiful!! Exactly like the pictures and it was so clean. I’ve never stayed in a place that was this clean! I had questions before and during our stay and anytime I emailed I got a response quickly back. Our only hiccup was the gate and door codes weren’t working when we first got there, but we called and everything was resolved quickly. Will definitely be coming back!
overall it was a good time but the outside of windows were very dirty.
also the office was locked up the whole time we were there, not sure if that was normal

Amazing accommodations and relaxing view
We had an absolutely wonderful time in room 205! The view was everything we were expecting. The condo itself was clean and kid friendly. The views again from the main master were tremendous. The bathrooms exquisite and huge! My kids loved the bunk beds! The beds were so comfy!! The pool and grounds were beautiful!! The beach itself is private and aqua waters and powder white sands on Crystal beach are amazing! What a great introduction to Destin FL for us as a family! So much to see and do in Destin!! What a wonderful family adventure we had! Thank you so so much! Highly recommend room 205 at the Crystal Dunes! It was everything we needed and more!

I would prefer flexibility in checkout time. No basic condiments for us to use ie salt & pepper etc
We had a wonderful stay with our 4 young children. Spacious property, beautiful view, very family friendly, excellent communication with the property when we needed help during our stay. We hope to return in the future!
