Off-STREET PARKING
This home has a large driveway which accommodates 3-4 vehicles (depending on the size of the cars) . There is no on-street parking allowed in Destin.
A PERFECT BEACH LOCATION
The home is about a block from the beach; you can choose between two access points: Shirah Street or the larger ‘Shore at Crystal Beach Park’ with a pavilion and bathrooms. At the house, you’ll find a cart with beach chairs and an umbrella, so you can roll your gear to the beach with ease. Crystal Beach is the gold standard of Destin...no high-rise condominiums. It’s mostly residential, which contributes to the quietness of the neighborhood – you can just stroll down the sidewalk to the beach, or walk to a few nearby restaurants or shops.
Restaurants, activities and entertainment are also close-by. Destin Commons, a beautiful upscale shopping and entertainment center, is less than a half-mile away. It features over 75 shops and restaurants, including Bass Pro Shop, World of Beer, Panera Bread, Uncle Buck's Fish Bowl & Grill, AMC Theater with IMAX and much more. Local favorite, Camille’s, is an easy walk around the corner and The Crab Trap is about a mile east. You can bicycle, scooter, Jet ski and go para-sailing all within walking distance. The Silver Sands Outlet mall is not far for those who enjoy “retail therapy”!
PET FRIENDLY
We are pet friendly and welcome your dogs in our home. Pre-approval and a $200 + tax pet fee applies.

About Sugar Palm Vacation Rentals
We have been part of VRBO since its early days, being long time friends and colleagues of the founder. We understand the 'by owner' nature of this business better than anyone, and go above and beyond to bring you a great home. We own these homes and are truly offering them 'by owner.' We are local and will meet you here, so we have to be proud of them. We also provide honest rates, and don't charge reservation or other junk fees. We keep our calendars up-to-date and typically reply to inquiries within minutes.
Why Sugar Palm Vacation Rentals chose Destin
Destin is one of the most popular vacation spots on VRBO for a reason - family oriented, amazing beaches, lots of attractions, shopping, and great seafood and fishing. We think the Crystal Beach community is hands-down the best Destin has to offer for families. It's quaint and quiet with cottage-style homes and white picket fences, sidewalks, nestled right on the beach, and lower density - no high-rise condos allowed. Crystal Beach is surrounded by Destin Commons and other multitudes of shopping, restaurants, and entertainment for the entire family.
What makes this House unique
We love our house because it is only steps from the beach, always kept clean, and is roomy and comfortable with new renovations and all new furniture in 2012. The private pool is relaxing, and a separate carriage house provides privacy for our friends and in-laws when they come down with us. We love the Crystal Beach community because we like to walk. Lower density, sidewalks, picket fences, and ocean views make walking a real treat in Crystal Beach.
