Our Community: Crystal Beach promotes cottages, rather then high rises, to capture the Old Florida Community feeling. We suggest walking to the corner Bistro ( Camille's ), sit on the veranda, read the paper and enjoy a relaxing breakfast and cup of coffee while watching the morning joggers pass by.
While at the beach, try one of their smoothies or return in the evening for some of the finest Sushi or seafood in Destin. There are also many beautiful golf courses within 5 miles of your vacation home. You will also enjoy Dolphin watching, jogging and just sitting at the beach to soak in the beauty of the emerald waters as well as the spectacular sunsets. If you enjoy shopping then you will be able to shop till you drop! Destin Commons is only 2 minutes away
or you can find several treasures at the Silver Sands outlet mall. It is billed as the worlds largest Designer Outlet! And please take time to explore Hwy 30A with all of their quaint shops as well as the shops of San Destin

Sidewalks line scenic 98 for walking, running or bike riding. We are a short 2-5 mile drive to the Silver Sands mall to the West, or luxury shopping at Destin Commons to the East. Kenny D's, The Crab Trap, and Pompano Joe's are all within walking distance to Cayenne Cottage. We encourage you to leave menus of your favorite restaurants when you come.

This is the best beach house we have ever rented. The location was perfect because the walk to the beach was so short it was not a big deal at all! The house was beautiful with all the perfect upgrades. The space of the house was wonderful for our children and our friend's family as well. The outdoor area made our return from the beach blissful!!! We loved the home and hope we can visit again soon!!!!Recommended for: Families with young children, families with teenagers, age 55+.

This is a beautiful home with a well equipped kitchen, great deck and grill. Just a short walk to the beach and there is a coffee shop, bike rental right on the corner. Close to all kinds of shopping - could even walk to stores if you like. Henderson State Park just a couple of blocks away. We had a great time, the water was beautiful and the house very comfortable for our family.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 4/5
