About this property

Private Beachfront Home, Swimming Pool, Kayak, Paddle Boards & Free Chair Set Up

Walk out onto your own private beach!
Our property is located on the oceanfront, quiet, private, snow-white sands of Crystal Beach. You will enjoy complimentary daily beach chair & umbrella service setup! March through October. We provide additional portable folding beach chairs and umbrellas year round. This is a private beach, NO one can set up their beach chairs behind or on either side of you. We own the entire beach area from the deck to the waterline! Enjoy our beach-side decks, grill, swimming pool, WiFi and soaker tub in the primary suite. The 3 levels with decks and balconies on each floor provide the ultimate family privacy. This west end property has amazing sunrises and sunset views, plus allows you to enjoy the view of the crystal clear water and snow-white sand beach! It’s perfect for family vacations, reunions, getaways, and a child-friendly environment. As the owners, we fell in love with this property not only for it’s beachfront access and amazing sunset views but because of the 1st floor that can be used as a studio apartment to make it another rental property or used as a 4th bedroom because of the closet, TV, dresser, an "en suite" bathroom, kitchenette, a queen sofa sleeper, a full-size ice machine, with floor to ceiling windows, a door that leads outside on the back deck to go down to the beach and an inside privacy door that closes off the room. When that door is closed, there is a separate door in the hallway which leads outside to the back deck and down to the beach that can be used to "not" disturb the guests in that bedroom. We can accommodate up to 11 people making this property a 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom beachfront rental in Destin as described in each photo. Garage not included, but you can park in front of it. We provide shampoo, conditioner, body wash, hand soap and lotion in all the bathrooms. There are outside security cameras in the front and the back of the unit for your protection and the protection of the property. There is No noise decibel monitors. Please Do No tamper with or disable. We also provide toilet paper, paper towels, dish and dish-washer soap and laundry soap, trash bags and additional cleaning supplies for our guests to use just during their stay. Plus, we have spices, sugar, flour, cooking oil & most everything you need to cook with. Sorry no condiments. (PLEASE NO PETS ALLOWED/ NO SMOKING

Loved it!

We love coming to Destin every year and this was our best rental yet. We loved the layout and it was definitely the best stocked VRBO we have ever stayed at. Awesome location, the place was spotless, and the views were perfect. We will for sure be back to stay at Christine’s property again. Really can’t say enough about it we were happy from check-in to check out.

Extraordinary beach townhouse

This is the best VRBO that we have ever stayed at. Christine was an amazing host who provided everything you could ask for and more. This location can’t be beat for a relaxing family vacation that is close to a ton of restaurants shopping and of course the beach. We vacationed with our adult children, and there was plenty of room for us to all spread out and find a place to chill after a busy day running around the Destin area. If I could give this property 10 stars, I would!!!

Great Spot for Family Vacation

This home is equipped with everything you need for your beach vacation, chairs and umbrellas, beach toys, beach towels, even an ice machine. We saw dolphins every morning from our balconies while we drank coffee. Very close to shopping and restaurants. We had a great week at the beach.

Great location, superior host and everything you need!

This townhome is perfectly located in a quieter part of Destin. The host is very responsive to all questions/concerns. The best thing is that so many items that normally wouldn't be part of a rental are included. Beach towels, beach chairs, beach toys, etc. Everything you need to enjoy your time in Destin is provided.

This property was absolutely stunning. The pictures do not do it justice. The items that were supplied; tooth brushes, razors, shampoo, condiments, makeup remover, I could go on and on was over the top. You felt like you were staying in a friends home. Our flight arrived early and the host did not hesitate to allow us early access. I would not hesitate to recommend this property to anyone looking for a quality rental that has something to offer all ages. The host goes above and beyond !
