Area Attractions:

Crystal Beach is a terrific residential area, yet close to restaurants and activities in Destin. Convenient to restaurants such as the award-winning 790 Inn on the Gulf, or Sarah K's Gourmet, get your fro-yo on at U-Twirl Frozen Yogurt or learn how to ride the waves at All-A Board Surf School.

Close by is Destin Commons, a beautifully landscaped, pedestrian-friendly area and a great family venue where children will love to play in the interactive water fountains. Also for the younger guests, a nautically/pirate themed outdoor playground features a 1,750 square foot soft play area with various creatures from the sea, slides, and a treasure chest!  Destin Commons also has a mini-train for the kids. Destin Commons features over 75 shops and restaurants, including Godiva Chocolates, AMC Movie Theaters and Bass Pro Shop.

If you are near Miramar Beach, the snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Dolphin Reef, deployed in 2017.  Located just 685 feet straight out from the Miramar Regional Public Beach access (by Pompano Joe's), it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Dolphin Reef is at a depth of 12-20 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

The hotel delivery across the street at anytime between 4:30-6:00am is horrible! The peeping of the trucks backing in was awful!! The floors could have been a little cleaner. Had to buy a mop! Needed one for my length of stay! I got used to the peeping a little bit! Location excellent! Would have stayed again but was told I don’t get preference for next year even though I was staying there! Never heard that before! Called multiple realtor around and they said they never heard that either! Will be back for sure to Destin but now I had to reserve another property for next year! Done and happy!

My large family had a great stay at this beach house. We would definitely consider booking here again. It’s about a 6-8 minute walk to the beach. They had lots of umbrellas and chairs to use at the beach. Multiple kitchens and fridges in the house. Close to grocery store. Having a pool was a great way wear out the kids.

Family vacation

The property was great for our large family gathering. I let them know the toaster wasn't working and they sent someone over with a brand new one! Totally unexpected! Great communication. Would definitely stay againOne thing; there is only one pull out couch in the living room ( listing says 2). Not a problem for us but wanted to mention for future renters

Highly recommended! Great for family vacation!

My family has stayed here many times over the past few years. The amenities offered are second to none. Home has everything you can possibly need and more. We love the private sports pool, outdoor kitchen and accessibility to every room from the outside. We plan on returning again when the weather gets warmer.

Easy check in process. Accommodating staff. The only glitch would be the inconsistent communication

The property was exactly as described on the website. Very clean with ample space and seating. Convenient location. The private heated pool was a must have and perfect to organize the group in the mornings.

We had a great time and the house was perfect. We had 17 people stay with us in the house and never felt like there was an issue. Over all a great place. Beach access is a .5 mile walk and grocery is a .5mile walk. Made it easy and would definitely stay here again.

Big spacious house with plenty of room for our big family. House was clean. Pool was very nice and clean as soon as we arrived the kids jumped right in. Beds were comfortable. And the beach is a couple of blocks away which was a plus for us. Would definitely recommend. We are already Looking to book again for next year.

Great Family House

Worked great for my large family and friends. The house was nice and most everything worked well. The dishwasher was missing wheels so fell pretty mush every time we pulled it open and the pool heater did not work at. Only complaints. The location was perfect. Everything you could ever want to do or shop for was in walking distance-even the cell phone store for a phone mishap. Would be happy to stay here again.

Great house and location for family/families with teens, little kids, and babies.

Space worked great for the 3 generations of our family. Little ones loved the pool and big kids could walk to beach, shopping and coffee. It's in a lovely neighborhood. Bedrooms are roomy, baths are nice. Bath by pool entrance was well used. Plenty of refrigerator space and all needed cookware, dishes, etc. The public beach access was disappointing. It's so beautiful, but use of 90% of beach is restricted to those staying in beachfront properties. I've vacationed in Destin several times, but don't see my immediate family of 20 returning if public beach access remains restricted. Really too bad. We always need a big house and like the private space of a home like this one where you can easily walk to the beach.

Not as Expected

The house was spacious but LR furniture is dirty and should be replaced and floors were very dirty needed mopping, paint needs touch up doors very dirty, while unloading my car a snake came from hedges and crossed in front of porch, landscaping and yard needs to be cleaned up, pool area not very clean either and pool is smaller than it appears in the pics. Location is great but not much allotted room at beach. Very high price for condition of property. Will not return or recommend.

This house had roaches and was NOT a short 14 step or 2 block walk to a public beach.

Never staying with this company again. Roaches in the house, electrical outlets didn’t work, broken windows, doors would just pop open to the outside, broken glass around the pool area. It was not a short walk to the beach as advertised. We had to go a mile down the road to the state park for beach access because other beach areas were for guests of other propertities. We had 12 people with us and took until the 3rd day to find the 6th bedroom that has a separate code. Talked with the property manager and their answer was Florida is known for roaches! They were not helpful AT ALL!!!!

Good overall

Like some of the other reviews this house was in need of a deep cleaning and updating. When we arrived we had an issue with the cable box in the living room not working. We contacted Real Joy and they sent a repair man out right away. The cable box was bad and ended up being replaced. After that issue was resolved the AC condenser started leaking through the ceiling in the laundry room. We again contacted Real Joy and they sent a repair man out right away. The repair man thought he had fixed the problem but on our last day it started leaking again. The size of the house was good for several families and the pool was nice! Overall it is a decent house.

Would not recommend to anyone! House filthy and run down because of neglect!

When we arrived we called and asked that the pool heater be turned on, we were told that it would be the next day. It was not turned on for 2 additional days and only after 2 more phone calls although they charged my card immediately. I was informed that my card would be refunded which has yet to happen. The second person that I spoke to was confrontational and extremely rude! The floors in the house were filthy, the children weren't allowed to be in the house BAREFOOT BECAUSE WITHIN HOURS OF ARRIVING THEIR FEET WERE BLACK! The drain in the downstairs bedroom bathroom would not drain properly. Other bathroom showers didn't drain properly. The dining room table was absolutely disgusting with all of the filth in the cracks, ( I have pictures). The swing by the pool is rotting and unsafe to use. The pool deck where the concrete meets wood is so uneven that several times someone tripped and almost fell because of it. The pool has a large break by one of the sets of stairs that could easily cause serious injury if someone fell and hit it while falling. Multiple deck boards are loose causing trip hazards. The deck railing is loose and rotting in several places. The pool area is in serious need of cleanup (trash and weeds). The outside shower area is covered in mold and mildew. We had to wash dishes before we used them because of filth (which we would have washed anyway but should not have had to scrub old food off of them). One of the Stair boards in the house has a large chip out of it which could easily cause injury if someone would step on it in the wrong way. The concrete tables are so unstable (rocking back and forth) that they are dangerous to use. Door locks are loose and unsafe. The back door (pool door) needs adjusted so it will shut properly.

Cute house, great location - needs a more thorough cleaning!

The house was cute and perfect for our group. But it definitely needed a deep clean. The pool was DISGUSTING we spent an hour when we got there cleaning up trash, cigarette butts, rib bones etc. Also one room was misleading as we didn’t realize it was not connected to the main house - not a big deal but something to note. Also we were told weeks prior to check in we could possibly check in early but the day of we were told That was never a possibility. Would have been much easier if we could have stored luggage at the house while we waited to Check in. Overall it was a great stay, the house just definitely needed better cleaning. Big issue was sand in the beds!
