We enjoyed our stay. The beach access was easy and the pool was nice to have if we didn't want to do a beach day. This property has many options for a group of our size.
We had a wonderful stay at this property with our family. The home was in a perfect location and a very short walk across the street to the public beach access. The upstairs loft room/bathroom provided privacy to our adult child and our younger children enjoyed the living room’s pull out couch bed which allowed us to be close to them. The pool was perfect and so convenient when the kids were needing a beach break. We enjoyed having our coffee with a beach view every morning on the nice patio! Our host had plenty of beach items in the closest for use and was very communicative prior to our stay. He provided plenty of information on beach accesses, fun places and good food. We had absolutely no issues and would 100% stay again and plan to do so!
Loved the location in Crystal Beach! Loved the view from the balcony! That was my favorite thing about the condo! The beach decorations were nice! The condo isn’t new, but the air conditioning and water pressure/hot water was great! The pool was nice, and the pool area is kept very clean! We really enjoyed our stay!
We loved the location. The space was great for the five of us. The beach was amazing! My only complaint was there was no soap for the shower. But we had a great time.
This property is in a good area. Although across the street from the ocean you still get a really amazing view. The owner was pleasant, nice restaurants really close by. I would recommend to anyone and would definitely stay again!!
Our host, Fan, is always easy to get a hold of if needed and willing to assist with any issues. We’ve stayed here many times and love coming back each time!
The condo checked off everything I was looking for; location, amenities, space, cleanliness, and price. We had a relaxing stay and checking in went very smooth. Thank you!
I will start with the positives first. This condo is beautifully decorated and clean. It has a beautiful ocean view from the balcony. It has every beach accessory you could possibly need: chairs, cart, umbrellas, floats, and toys. The downside of the condo is the refrigerator was making a loud rattling noise from the moment we arrived through the day we left. The owner did have a repair man come look at it but it was not fixed. The condo below this one was being renovated the entire week of our stay. They turned the water off to this condo while we were trying to take showers 2 days in a row with no warning. That was extremely frustrating. They started drilling and pounding at 7:00a.m. Every Single morning and it lasted all day. We were not able to sleep in or take naps. The drilling was ear piercing loud. This was very unfortunate and made for a lousy stay. The owner had no control over this but it is not something we wanted to have to deal with on vacation especially given how much money we paid to stay there. The condo itself could use some updates. The appliances are very old, the cabinet paint is cracking and peeling, and the walls need painting. If you want a good beach view and a central location, this condo is sufficient.
I loved this place! It was so convenient to get to everything. The beach is across the road and a short walk. We enjoyed our stay and sure didn’t want to leave.
We enjoyed our trip to Destin. The location can’t be beat. You walk just across the street to the public access and you are on the white sandy beaches! The condo was a perfect size for 4 of us. The view from the balcony is wonderful, only a few obstructions but you can see the ocean much better than any of the neighboring units. We enjoyed the beach and the pool was not too busy and a great way to cap off the day. The condo had the dishes/utensils we needed to make dinners. The grill is out by the pool and similar to what you would see at a park. Fan was very communicative and responsive before and during. Getting in was easy as you get a door code ahead of time. They do have toilet paper and paper towels to get you started but you will want to order your own. Unfortunately the dishwasher was broken when we arrived, Fan sent a maintenance person same day but he was unable to fix it. We appreciated her prompt response. The closet was full of items to use at the beach, a cooler, chairs, beach mats, sand toys etc. that was nice as we flew in and only could pack a few things. We didn’t rent a car, we Ubered from VPS and did a grocery delivery. Camille’s is a cute little coffee shop just the next street over. We could also walk less than a mile to Publix and some restaurants so no need for a vehicle. Overall it was a great stay and we would book again in the future due to the great communication and location!
We loved this condo with the perfect location in Crystal Beach! Was literally perfect for what we wanted and needed to do. Beach is so close and also to everything else in Destin. Thank you so very much! We dream of coming back again as soon as we can.

Why they chose this property
We love to travel and have seen a great deal of the world. We were very impressed when we took our vacation here in 2008. We made decision to come back each year and the best way to do it is to buy our own place. We decided to share such a beautiful place with others December of 2012.
What makes this property unique
The gorgeous view of turquoise water and sugar white sand right from the living room means so much to us when we were looking for a place to buy. The convenient location to restaurants, bookstores and shops in addition to beach and State Park make it a wonderful place to spend your vacation.
