The condo was perfection… beautiful and perfect location. The only draw back was the constant running overhead and neighbor smoking on their balcony as well as on the beach ( literally had to leave our beach chairs and umbrella that came with room several days due to her not following the rules). None of this was the owners fault. We would rent this condo again

We loved the view and the condo was very beautiful and clean! Docking one star because we had to deal with the smell of cigarette smoke while on the balcony the entire week. Despite Crystal Dunes being a smoke free facility, it didn’t seem like much was done to enforce.
Stayed 7 nights in Aug 2025
Response from VrboOwner on 20 Aug, 2025
Thank you for your kind words regarding the view and cleanliness of the condo. We are very sorry to hear that your enjoyment of the balcony was impacted by cigarette smoke from neighboring units. While Crystal Dunes is indeed a smoke-free facility, enforcement is managed by the building association, and we regret that this was not adequately addressed during your stay. We will be sharing your feedback with the association to help improve enforcement moving forward. We truly appreciate your comments and hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for a more seamless experience in the future.

Perfect condo

I do my research before booking vacation units. This unit is great, high end finishes, nice furniture, comfy beds, blackout curtains. Beach set up is so nice and easy. There are boxes at each set of steps to the beach containing lending toys, chairs, etc. book this one!

Perfect location right on the beach

This is my second time staying at a Crystal Dunes property but the first time in this condo. I absolutely love the property, such a perfect location directly on the beach, close to great restaurants and not too crowded. The condo was clean, beautifully decorated and had most everything we needed for the week. Would definitely stay here again!

Great condo

We had 5 adults and 2 kids staying in the condo and it was the perfect size for us. The master bedroom was amazing and the other rooms were nice too. It’s in a great location as well. Approximately 3 or 4 minutes from the grocery store, Destin commons, restaurants, and about 15 minutes to the harbor walk. The owner could be reached immediately for any questions we had. We had a great stay and would highly recommend.

Paradise condo

Literally, everything we wanted in a place. Close to everything but directly on the beach. We saw dolphins daily. We also, enjoyed our two beach chairs, umbrella and table provided. The property is clean and gated. Private beach. The inside of our condo was very clean and beautifully decorated. The balcony is facing the ocean with ocean views from the master. Our family would absolutely stay here again!

Best Condo Ever!

This condo was even more beautiful than the pictures. It was totally renovated with beautiful beachy decor. The furniture was nice, comfortable and sturdy. Mattresses were very comfortable. The condo was very clean. It was very roomy for 6 adults and an infant. The Crystal Dunes building itself was very nice, clean and well kept. Our only issue was lack of parking spaces when we came back in the evening from being out. I called management and they were quick to respond and even followed up the next day. I can’t say enough good about this condo! We will definitely be back!

Pluses and minuses

Stunning beach and the Gulf is beautiful. Proximity to the beach is phenomenal and the staff there was very accommodating. Close to any shopping or dining you would want, too. The absolute worst WiFi and no cable for kids in the evening. The pool was tiny but clean. The Unit we stayed in needs updating. I expected the amenities to be commiserate with the high price tag. Thank goodness the beach and Gulf nearly eclipsed the Unit’s disappointments. I’d go again but ask for a better Unit for $3500+ a week.

Unit was great with one exception

If you rent at Crystal Dunes, I'd highly recommend top floor ONLY! We had what sounded like a future Olympian above us. He was running up and down the hall and jumping off the bedroom furniture. None of us could sleep until he stopped which was about 11:30PM each evening and we were up as soon as he was usually around 7AM and we love to sleep in on vacation! The Crystal Dunes pool is in front of the property. We prefer out back so we can keep an eye on the kids from the deck while we are enjoying the ocean view.

Hi Steve, We apologize that the guest's child above was very noisy. Hopefully the rest of your stay was enjoyable. In the future, please let us know about this and we can reach out to the HOA to resolve this for you. We can only hope he gets to the Olympics when he is older!

Suggestions

1. Make checkin earlier due to limited airlines coming in and they only offer early arrivals. 2. There needs to be bath rugs. Ppl can slip. Uncomfortable coming out of shower and no where to step but the floor. 3. Floors needs to be thoroughly cleaned. Very dirty. 4. As much as you spend to stay here…there should be plenty of toilet paper. There also should be basic tools there. Flashlights too. 5. There should be as many umbrellas and beach chairs to accommodate all the guests staying at no charge. 6! Maybe offer gift card to guests for staying to local shop to get like rafts for ocean. Other than that the place was very nice. Beds comfy. Maybe not so big pillows. Have some flatter ones. Maybe keep box fans in all bedrooms. Would stay again. Just needs to make avail more comforts of home for the guests.

Thank you for your detailed feedback and for noting the aspects of your stay that you enjoyed, such as the comfort of the beds and the overall quality of the property. We truly appreciate your constructive suggestions, as they help us identify areas for improvement. We understand the challenges posed by limited airline schedules and will review our check-in policy to see if earlier arrivals can be accommodated when possible. Your recommendations regarding bath rugs, additional cleaning attention to floors are well noted. Your ideas for offering gift cards to local shops and providing more pillow variety and box fans in bedrooms are thoughtful suggestions that we will take into consideration for enhancing guest comfort. We are pleased to hear you would stay with us again, and we look forward to welcoming you back with an even more enjoyable experience in the future.
