Great Beachfront Value, Older Building

This unit is an amazing value given its location and space inside the condo. They have done a nice job keeping it mostly updated, but are fighting an uphill battle against an old building. The condo felt plenty clean, but we did see sporadic roaches and the strong air freshener smell reminds you the building is older and can only be so clean. We enjoyed our stay and being beachfront is incredible, just don’t expect a 5 star resort experience. Having a very late check in and 10am check out feels Iike you’re squeezed on both ends with no flexibility.

Great condo, great location

I hesitate to say how much we enjoyed our stay because, selfishly, we don't want it to be unavailable for our next trip to the area! The location is unbeatable, the condo was clean, had comfy beds and had everything we needed.

Excellent find!

When our original booking was lost due to the condo being sold, Vacasa stepped in and made it right. We found this listing and Vacasa worked with us to make it happen for our family, even helping us change our dates to fit our needs. The condo is right on the beach and has so much space. It was a gem of a find. It was the perfect space for our larger family. We loved the flooring, the large comfortable master bed, the large shower, the beautiful kitchen and lofted ceilings. When we're traveling to this area again, we will choose Vacasa and we will look for this listing! Our kids loved sitting on the balcony and watching the waves. Amazing! This condo really helped bring the magic to our vacation!

Beach

The view and condo room was great. The only thing is if you are not in shape, it may bother you taking your luggage up 3 flights of stairs, but that wasnt bad really. The Beach lady that puts out the chairs was great and works really hard.The street beside the condo has public acsess to it and it is only 50 feet wide so all those people try to come on the condo beach. Overall it was a great vacation.

Vacation may 2024

Very happy with the house and the view was the part that made it perfect! House is very roomy, made the 3 flights up worth it! Umbrella and chair service is included on the private beach. Upstairs is very roomy and the master bed was very comfortable. Definitely plan to stay again. Very close to all the grocery stores and popular restaurants. Having washer and dryer also made me realize I way overpacked. TVs were not user friendly but maybe that was me but couldn’t find remotes for two to the TVs outside the cox cable remotes and the cable did not work. We used our fire stick and one of the TVs upstairs is a smart tv with apps so it worked out well anyway

Lighting

Over the kitchen island was very dark with the curtains closed, I would like to suggest to consider lighting that spot up and the upstairs loft light switch on fan doesn’t work. The fridge does not cool things off well at all, we had to use the freezer partly to get the cold consistent we should have had. Also, the upstairs part were the 3 beds are was hot however the fan did do some justice. The TV in that area did not work at all! I would like to suggest heaters in the bathrooms, esp the downstairs bathroom. We did visit during Christmas holiday and the temp was about 58-65 degrees so having a heater in the bathroom would have been ideal. We did enjoy our stay, was very spacious, loved the house. Thank you. Will we come again, potentially!

Exceptional Beach Location

My daughter and I loved our recent stay here and would definitely book again. The third floor balcony overlooks the beautiful private beach and offers an unobstructed sunset view. We had breakfast outside every morning then walked down a few flights of stairs and directly onto the sand. This unit is older but all the important stuff is good. Two large bedrooms (one upstairs and one down) with full bathrooms, new fixtures and great plumbing, lots of hot water and plenty of towels (bring your own for the beach). The heat/AC works perfectly and fridge and stove are also good and work well. No problem with wireless and availability of Netflix, etc., we watched movies every night on the large screen. We had no issues or problems with anything. Great spot for a relaxing beach getaway.

Family vacation

We've stayed at this unit in the past and it was always great until this last stay. The properly is run down from the last time we stayed. Food was on the dishes as we got them out of the cabinets, bathroom was dirty, remotes and the lights to the ceiling vans didn't work. The hallways lights need updated as it was very dark, maintenance came out and tried to change the bulbs ,but it was still dark in the hall and kitchen area. There was party streamers and tape left everywhere. Just not as clean and cute as it once was. I asked for the property manager to contact me and i was ignored.

All You Could Want

We love being on the Crystal Beach end of Destin. This condo was exactly what we were looking for- location, size, directly on the beach, and a great price! The unit was clean and the complex was very quiet. Included beach service is always extremely helpful for our little family too! If you are concerned about internet connection and updated decor, then you might want to look elsewhere- but if you are like us and just want somewhere clean to sleep at night then book this!

I would like you to tell me more about what I can expect. There was a hair dryer, only one dish towel, just two dishwasher pods and two laundry detergent pods. If I know this ahead of time I can come prepared.
