We had a fantastic time at this home! The private pool was a highlight — super clean with plenty of comfortable seating around it. The kitchen was well-stocked with everything we needed for cooking and dining in. The location was perfect: close to the beach and in a walkable, friendly neighborhood. Communication with the owner was excellent — very responsive and helpful throughout our stay. Highly recommend!

We are repeat renters of this property. It’s the perfect place for our family of 3. The walk to the beach is very short and convenient. The owners are very responsive and even mailed the items we left back to us. The house has everything you need for entertaining, swimming, and a day at the beach. Thank you for another great stay!!

About the host

Hosted by Dottie

Host profile image
Our family has been vacationing in Destin for 30+ years. We love the beautiful white sandy beaches. Our favorite area is Crystal Beach, it is not only a beautiful area, but very convenient to restaurants and shopping. We are happy to share our beach house with you and your family.

Why they chose this property

When we saw this house and it's location, we fell in love with it. Our beach house is located across the street from the beach in a quaint neighborhood called The Courtyard at Crystal Beach. Crystal Beach has pastel colored homes with white picket fences. We love to take morning walks in the neighborhood and on the beach. We hope you will enjoy staying there as much as we do.

What makes this property unique

The close proximity to the beach is wonderful, with the public beach access one block away. We love having the pool to relax in after a day at the beach! The shopping is endless between the Destin Commons and the Silver Sands Outlet Mall. There are many wonderful restaurants close by. The Ft. Walton airport is only 25 minutes away.
