Barracuda -

This gracious vacation home with six bedrooms has just received a major transformation. Barracuda has been newly remodeled with an upstairs addition to provide comfortable furnishings and up-to-date amenities to accommodate 16 guests. This home is in Crystal Beach, just a short stroll away from the sugary quartz crystalline shore that borders the green jewel toned waters of the gulf.

The floor plan has a split design with two full kitchens and a living room on each floor so separate families, friends or relatives sharing a vacation together may still have their own individual space. The main first floor level has an open Great Room that is bright with multiple windows. Double glass doors lead out to a covered veranda with lounge chairs and a gas grill that overlooks an intimate lagoon shaped plunge pool. A nautical light blue colored couch that doubles as a queen size sleeper sofa and matching love seat face a wall mounted TV for entertainment. A white armchair and woven wicker backed accent chair provide additional seating. Formal squared columns frame the other part of this large room that has a rectangular wooden table with eight chairs for dining. The newly remodeled open kitchen nearby has a granite topped island and gleaming stainless steel appliances. A Master Bedroom with a king size bed on this level has a full luxury bath en suite and access to the veranda. A Kid’s Bunk Room has two twin bunks and access to a full hall bath that serves as a powder room off the main living area downstairs.

Stairs lead to the upper guest quarters, which include another open full kitchen with a granite topped counter bar, stainless steel appliances and a breakfast table with three seats. A plush tufted wraparound couch in the living area faces a wall mounted TV. Two additional Bedroom Suites are located upstairs and each one has its own private bath. One has a king size bed with access to a balcony overlooking the pool courtyard while the other has a lovely queen size bed. The two other Guest Bedrooms include a queen room and a 2 twin bunk room. They share a nice full Jack n Jill Bath with duel vanities on a richly mottled granite counter top.

This hospitable home is located just two blocks north of Scenic Highway 98, a fairly short distance from the beautiful beach. Several popular gulf front restaurants are minutes away including 790 on the Gulf, which is within walking distance. The convenient location is also just a few blocks away from a Disney-like version of a shopping village known as Destin Commons. This complex is complete with interactive fountains, restaurants, upscale designer clothing shops, a giant Bass Pro Shop and a Belk's Department Store. Grocery stores, wine outlets, and top nationally known restaurants are also close by.

First Floor: Living Room with Queen Sleeper Sofa and Patio Access, Kitchen, Dining, King Bedroom with Walk-In Shower and Patio Access, Bunk Room with Two Twin Bunks, Hall Bath with Tub/Shower Combo, Laundry.

Second Floor: Bonus Den, Kitchen, Dining, King Bedroom with Walk-In Shower, Queen Bedroom with Shared Walk-In Shower, Queen Bedroom, Jack-and-Jill Bath with Tub/Shower Combo, Bedroom with Two Twin Beds, Balcony Access.

Great location.
The house is very comfortable and very pretty but when we arrived we noticed that it was not so clean, there was hair in the showers and some dirty sheets On the second night of our stay the propane gas for the grill ran out in the middle of our dinner. On two occasions we saw cockroaches once in the kitchen and the other in a bathroom The house is very nice and they should be more careful in the small details

This property and location met all our needs.
This property and location met all our needs. The pool is small but provided ample opportunity for our water volleyball tournaments. The bedrooms and bathrooms were a perfect layout for our family of ten ages 14 to 60. We did not use the bunk room as the bunk mattresses are very thin, more for younger children. We all enjoyed the front porch and back balconies. We enjoyed having Parasailing, pontooning, deep sea fishing and a variety of restaurants near our location. The description of the beach 2 blocks away was a bit deceiving as it is a private beach and in order to access it you have to rent beach chairs and umbrellas from them for $100 a day. We did do that as that beach area was so close. Over all it was great and we would recommend it to others.
