Perfect location! House layout is perfect. Primary on main floor and 2 bedrooms upstairs. Pool and beach was not crowded like I had expected for Spring Break! Clean, organized, comfortable beds. Only wish the house had beach chairs for guests.

Response from VrboOwner on 20 Apr, 2026
Thank you for the 5 star review and sharing your experience at Crystal Cottage! We’re so glad the layout worked well for your stay, especially having the primary bedroom on the main floor and additional space upstairs—it’s a great setup for families and groups visiting Destin. It’s wonderful to hear you enjoyed the location and found both the beach and pool more relaxing than expected during Spring Break. Crystal Beach is known for its laid-back feel, and we’re happy you were able to experience that while still being close to everything Destin has to offer. We also appreciate your feedback regarding beach chairs. We are on the wait list for beach service and hope to be adding it soon. We used to provide chairs at the home for guests to take to the beach but unfortunately they did not always make it back to the home. Thank you again for choosing Destin Beach Vacation Rentals. We hope to welcome you back to Crystal Cottage for another comfortable and memorable Emerald Coast getaway!!

We really enjoyed our stay and the property was perfect for our family. There were a couple of maintenance issues and from what I understand there will be a remodel of the property soon. The location was perfect for beach access and the nice little café on the corner. The community pool was clean and always ready to have swimmers. We would stay in this property again.

Excellent location and great house!

This house was a great find! Perfect location, short walk to the beach and easy to work with owner/property manager. I loved enjoying the front porch, coffee in the morning, cocktails in the evenings! I’ve never stayed at a VRBO that didn’t have some spices or even a little olive oil or salt and pepper. I guess it’s a county ordinance law, so be sure to bring your own spices, oils, coffee filters. The house was excellent and I would definitely stay here again.

Thank you so much for the kind review! We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the location, the ease of working with us, and especially those relaxing moments on the front porch—morning coffee and evening cocktails sound like the perfect beach routine. You're absolutely right about the pantry items—due to local health and safety regulations, we're not permitted to leave behind any opened food products, including spices or oils. We always try to note this in our welcome info, but we’ll be sure to make it even clearer for future guests. We look forward to seeing you again Stephanie!!

Great extended stay!

We stayed at the property for 2 weeks and had a great stay! We had an issue with the fire alarm overnight one of the first nights of our stay but they were prompt to come out and fix right away. The house was recently redone and the cleaning crew does a great job! The house was spotless when we walked in. The description does say that Miramar beach is a 5 min walk which isn’t the case. Miramar is a lot further. However you are right on Crystal Beach. There are two small public beach sections. And you can rent chairs and an umbrella from the private beach sections. We rented a tent, 2 chairs and a beach wagon from Emerald Coast premier Rentals and everything was great, reasonably priced and easy to work with. Overall we had a great stay and would definitely stay here again when we’re in the area!

Thank you so much for your kind and thoughtful 5-star review! We’re so glad you had a wonderful two-week stay and appreciated the cleanliness of the home and our quick response to the fire alarm issue. It means a lot to us that you'd consider staying with us again! I did want to take a moment to clarify something you mentioned—thank you for pointing it out. I went back through the listing description and couldn’t find any reference stating that Miramar Beach is a 5-minute walk. You're absolutely right though—this home is located in Crystal Beach, and we're glad you enjoyed the nearby public beach access and the ease of renting from Emerald Coast Premier Rentals. We truly appreciate your feedback and look forward to seeing you again soon!!!

Couldn’t be better

Location is incredible! Very very close to the beach, you can easily come home if you forgot something! Nicest beach entrance. Camille’s is a 2 minute walk for delicious snacks and coffee. Also very walkable to Destin commons for everything else. Street is adorable, loved walking our dog around the block. Pool is 2 doors down and popular with the little ones. House is nicely updated and has a great layout. Front porch cool and private. Very very clean, easy booking and check in. Bright but not too hot from the sun beating in. Beds comfortable and quiet to sleep at night. Laundry convenient and air con works great. Bathrooms modern. Everything was fantastic! Perfect for us - 2 adults and 2 teens.

Our second home

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We stay in this house every year and rent a golf cart during our stay. I love this house because it is perfect for my family of four. The master sleeps well for my wife and me; upstairs, my son and daughter have their rooms and share a bathroom with two sinks. The living room has an oversized sleeper couch, but they must share the downstairs bathroom. This is your house if you have a small family and want to get away for a while. The HOA pool is three houses away, and the beach is a short walk across the scenic highway. This house is tucked away, so sitting on the front porch with a cup of coffee is the perfect spot to soak in the ocean breeze. We love going to Camilles, Captain Daves, the Crab Shack, and an Italian gem called Pazzo Italiano. If you have questions, please get in touch with the management company and talk with Audrey; she will ensure it gets done effectively and quickly.

Would not stay again

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was somewhat dirty. I was very happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Upon arrival we were disappointed at the outside condition of the house. Multiple dead shrubs line the driveway. Old beer bottles and trash in the shrubs. House is in desperate need of a pressure washing. Front porch was mildew and had broken steps. Inside there was a few loose grapes sitting on the dining room table from the previous guests. All the screens in the house are torn or missing. The carpets are severely stained. Palmetto bugs ran wild in the house killing 15 on our 4 day stay. For the amount of money spent I expected a much better house. It appears that the owners only care about making money on the rental and do not put any money into this house. I would definitely stay elsewhere.
Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2022
Response from VrboOwner on 6 Sept, 2023
Thank you for your honest review Joan. As we come to the end of a very busy season, it is normal to find some of the things you mentioned - stained carpets, etc. After season, all properties get deep cleaned for a fresh start to the new season. The screens have been repaired since your visit, and the couple minor issues that you mentioned to us during your stay have been taken care of as well. The bigger stuff like pressure washing. has been scheduled. The owner is busy contacting contractors to make improvements to the property in the off season, and we would love for you to come back to see the new look it will have. Unfortunately the palmetto bugs come in from the trees outside. They sneak in windows or doors that are open. Harmless but certainly unwanted guests. When you reported this, we did have the exterminator come out to spray and hopefully that helped.
