Why they chose this property

We started coming to Destin many years ago. It has become such a special place for our family filled with so many amazing memories. Every time we went it was a “slice of heaven.” This summer we decided to have a permanent place to go to and continue to make memories with our children and hopefully with our grandchildren. We want to share this home for others to make memories and enjoy this "Slice of Heaven."

What makes this property unique

Crystal Shores is such a quaint, family friendly neighborhood that is literally across the street from Crystal Beach. Our home has wrap around porches on each story that are perfect in the morning with a cup of coffee or in the evening with a glass of wine. Each bedroom has direct access to the porches. The house also has wood flooring with plantation shutters for both privacy and to keep the bedrooms dark in the morning sunlight. We also have a beautiful patio area where friends and family can gather together. When going to the beach there is a beach wagon and beach chairs, umbrella, etc. for your use. When checking in you will also be given basic amenities such as dish soap, dish washer pods, laundry soap, soap, toilet paper, paper towels, coffee k-cups, etc. to get you started without having to run out to the store right away. All of the major grocery stores to include Publix, Whole Foods and Fresh Market are within approximately one mile or less to the house. There are also many restaurants in walking distance. Most importantly the beach in just five houses away. Just load up the beach wagon and roll over and enjoy the most beautiful beaches in the world!

When you are not enjoying the beautiful Destin beaches, you can also enjoy the amazing “views from space” of stunning beaches around the world. The house is decorated with phenomenal photos taken from the International Space Station of beaches and other extraordinary views of famous places across the globe. A treat for both the adults and the children!
