You will love this newly renovated, gulf-front condo located on the beautiful white sands of Crystal Beach. You can enjoy the Gulf of Mexico's view and sounds from the third-floor balcony. You can stroll the lovely beach or bike ride, walk, or jog along the paved sidewalks/bike trails of Scenic Gulf Drive. This well-appointed condo has 2 king-size beds (one is in the master and one in the second-story loft) and another bedroom with two twin daybeds with trundles, and 2 full bathrooms. Our maximum occupancy is 8. Although, the home is most comfortable for parties of 6 or less.

Our story at Crystal Villas, Unit 14B was perfect! We loved the layout of the dwelling with a beautiful view of the ocean, with just steps to the beach. We were also a short distance from shopping and great seafood dining restaurants. Wonderful place and experience.
The property is beautiful! And only steps away from the ocean. The owner was easy to communicate with. The overall stay was just what our family needed.
We came here with our family for a long weekend and it was perfect. The location and access to the beach was fabulous. We definitely will be returning! The condo was clean
This property is amazing! The convenience of being a 2 minute walk from the condo to the beach is hard to beat. The provided beach chairs and umbrella are a nice perk as well. Wake up in the morning, get ready and walk down to pick out where you want to sit. The only thing you need are beach towels and sand toys for the kids! The private beach isn’t crowded since it is for the condo owners/guests only. If you have ever visited a public beach, you understand how big of a benefit this is! The condo is equipped with everything could possibly need. We did several meals at the condo because of the well-equipped kitchen, which allows you to take short breaks to eat and head right back to the beach. Suzanne is a great host and she is very responsive to questions. We will be back. Thank you!!
Our week long stay at this lovely condo was thoroughly enjoyed by us, our adult kids and two grandsons. They loved having the loft as their private family space. The boys especially loved the TV in the bedroom, though they never once turned it on! The condo is very nicely appointed with everything you could possibly want or need. The decor is lovely and the view from the balcony was amazing - from seeing the lifeguards doing their daily drills to dolphin watching! The beach service was much appreciated and the kids made fast friends with others on vacation. We didn’t venture out into Destin very much as we were so comfortable in this condo. Would love to return!
We’ve stayed in this area multiple times over the years and this was the prettiest remodeled condo that we’ve stayed in! It was super spacious for our family and you can’t beat the location. We will definitely be staying here again!
Condo was newly renovated. Very clean. Right on the beach. Host was very attentive with any questions we had. Check in and out was easy. Will be staying again!
What a great property. Everything was top notch from location to cleanliness to beach attendant. Highly recommend this rental. Host are so accommodating Thanks
Suzanne was absolutely fantastic to work with and was extremely quick to respond! The location was perfect! Thoroughly enjoyed our view the entire vacation, not mention the condo was gorgeous!
This property had an amazing beach view , it was very clean - the owners were excellent with communication which made an easy check
In progress— you do have 4 flights of stairs not too bad really -the only strange thing was the bedroom upstairs you have to walk through bathroom upstairs to get to bedroom not a deal breaker at all - would definitely recommend and stay at this beautiful condo / plenty of supplies in the lovely kitchen!!
The property and the location was perfect! We had the best time here with three generations. Love the private beach being so close with chairs included and you cannot beat the view. Property was as described and we would definitely come back. Thanks for sharing!
This house was perfect for our beach vacation. It was the perfect size for our family and the location was great! Beautiful views!

About the host
Hosted by Suzanne Hardison
We are Barry and Suzanne Hardison and we are thrilled to have a oceanfront vacation condo in Destin! For 5 years, we owned and rented through VRBO a 1 bedroom condo across the street from the beach. We feel blessed to have this larger, beach-side home which accommodates more family and allows us to consider our young teenagers' desire to bring friends to the beach.
Our family looks forward to any time in Destin. The sound of the waves and the beautiful white sand are so enticing. In fact, our children have even braved the winter waters of the Gulf! There's never a bad day when you are at the beach!
Why they chose this property
Crystal Villas is in the perfect location. In our opinion, it is on the "quiet end" of Scenic Highway 98. This smaller, three story complex is in a prime location to the beach, shopping, and restaurants. You can be as busy or relaxed as you want in the convenient condo.
What makes this property unique
The sense of calm and relaxation our family experiences at the beach is priceless. Our teenage children love to swim in the ocean and pool, and we always enjoy our morning runs as a family on the walking/bike path. Window shopping and eating fresh seafood top our list of "must-do" excursions away from the beach. It is always a blessing to be here.
