About this property

Gulf view, direct beach access, heated pool, hot tub

Crystal Beach is one of the most sought-after spots on the Emerald Coast and we're just steps away from the white sand beaches. You can wake up and sip your coffee or relax in the evening with a margarita on your third-floor balcony while enjoying spectacular Gulf views. Our condo is on the top floor - no upstairs neighbors! Direct beach access is available just steps away at either end of the building. You can sit by the private, heated pool and hot tub, or grill steaks or your favorite local seafood on one of the community grills.
Our recently refreshed condo offers a King Bed, hallway bunks, a pull-out sleeper, all new furniture, new SMART TV, new flooring, granite countertops, bathroom tile, vanity, sinks, and all-new bedding. In-unit washer/dryer. The kitchen is fully stocked with pots and pans, a crock-pot, mixer, blender, toaster, Kuerig coffee machine, chopper, and more.

Amazing Location & Excellent Owners
We had a great stay! The property is nicely furnished with great decor which made it feel like home to us! The owners were awesome with communication and even let us know that we could check in early once the condo was cleaned and ready to check in which they absolutely did not have to take the time to do that! We will absolutely be booking with them again for this coming year!

Great condo! Great location!
This condo is one of the best we’ve stayed in. It was clean and well stocked. The pool and hot tub were well maintained and very clean too. We had a1 minute walk to get to a great beach. Also enjoyed the beach chairs and toys. We ate in most nights and had everything we needed, but plenty of restaurants within 10 minutes if you eat most meals out. We will be back! Thanks for everything!!

Best vacation in a while!
I’ll start this by saying I was skeptical of the place because of the cost. I was catfished 2 summers ago in Orange Beach with the worse place I ever ended up staying. FYI there are 2 complexes, East and West- make sure you’re at East. I might have been at the wrong one :) Beach access is right across the street, accessible with 2 crosswalks on either side of the complex. The access to the right when looking at the Gulf is the one we used and it was great. The public beach area in that spot is smaller than Tarpon Beach but it wasn’t bad at all. By about 4-5 pm they remove the rope for the private access and the umbrellas and chairs start to get put up for the night. Anyway, the condo was amazing! It is updated a little more than the current pictures which was a great surprise. The place was very clean and had everything we needed to cook for the week. The bunk beds in the hall were great, both my girls approved. The bed in the bedroom was comfortable and great pillows. I travel a lot for work and wish all the hotels I stayed at were as comfortable as this condo. The view from the balcony was great. It was nice to wake up every morning and see the water. I just wish the palm trees weren’t in the way to be able to see it on the left side but that’s nature. The owners were great and very responsive, even when I got the wrong complex. I will not hesitate to book this condo next summer if I don’t end up with a large group going with us. Don’t sleep on it, book the condo!

About the host

Host profile image
Our family has been coming to the Destin area for summer vacations every year for over 20 years. We've stayed all over Destin and 30A, but we especially love the Crystal Beach area, which is why we decided to invest here. We are excited to rent to anyone looking for their perfect family vacation, couples getaway, snowbird escape, work-from-home retreat, or anything in between. We greatly appreciate you considering of our condo and thank you in advance.

Why they chose this property

Location, location, location. Residential and low density area but very close to Destin Commons and all the Destin attractions. The best of both worlds.
