About this property

Crystal Sands 208B - Gulf Front, Heated Community Pool, Free Beach Service!

Crystal Sands 208B -

Happiness is crystal sands and jeweled waves on the Emerald Coast! Crystal Sands 208B is a quaint vacation condo located in Destin’s Crystal Beach neighborhood. The coastal-inspired condo radiates with beachy elegance and serenity. In addition to its front-row seat to Gulf Coast views, it features one bedroom and one and a half bathrooms. The condo can entertain up to six vacationers, making it great for a family vacay, romantic trip for two, girls’ getaway, or any other small-group getaway.

The main great room highlights the condo’s tropical location. A double set of sliding glass doors offers incredible beach views and leads to a Gulf-front balcony. The balcony is furnished with a table and chairs, making it a great place to relax in solitude or with your fellow guests. Coastal décor, blue accents, sea-inspired furnishings, and white tile floors add to the beach vibe. The living room includes a queen-size sleeper sofa, two patterned accent chairs, a hardwood-topped drink table, a white credenza, and a wall-mounted flatscreen TV. The coziness continues into the dining area, which has a dining table for two next to a cute beach painting. The adjacent kitchen features custom white cabinetry, stainless-steel appliances, a seascape painting and beach décor, and a granite-topped bar with stool seating for four.
The lovely master suite boasts a king-size bed, sunny window, flatscreen TV mounted above a large dresser, and a private bath with a granite-topped vanity and glass-walled, walk-in shower. Additional sleeping space comes in the form of twin bunks tucked in a bunk nook off the living room.

When you stay at Crystal Sands, you’ll also enjoy other vacation amenities. The condo complex features convenient beach access. Within minutes, you can go from watching the waves on your beachfront balcony to jumping in the salty water for a refreshing swim! Guests will also have access to the community pool, sundeck, and BBQ grill.

While this great location is laidback and feels secluded, it is also near an abundance of Destin fun, so you have the best of both worlds! Check out popular Gulf-front restaurants like the Crab Trap and Captain Dave’s. Browse the shops at Destin Commons or enjoy a discount shopping spree at Silver Sands Premium Outlets. Catch a fireworks show at the Village of Baytowne Wharf. Rent a private charter at HarborWalk village and head out for a fun-filled, Gulf excursion. Look up nearby live concerts and seasonal festivals. The possibilities for making vacation memories are nearly endless!

Just would suggest the plumber check out the bathroom sink with the closet and the toilet in the other bath as it clogged.

Great place for relaxing

We enjoyed our stay at this property. There were a sufficient amount of start up items to get started. I do wish they provided beach chairs(even if off season)we bought them and left them there. I also asked about if they had a blow dryer onsite which the property manager did not know so I brought my own. There was one available which would have saved on my overweight luggage LOL. It was perfect for sitting on the balcony and still feel like your right on the beach. We found everthing we needed not to far away,

The property and condo is very clean. We had such an enjoyable stay! Only issue was that housekeeping came to our door at 8:15 the day of checkout. We were prepared to leave by 10:00. We didn’t quite understand that.

Amazing!!!

Condo was amazing! Better than the pics! Location is the best! I’ve been to destin a lot and this is my favorite place now! Only thing was, the maintenance guy came to fix a toilet seat early the next morning after check in and knocked once super loud and unprofessional, gave me two seconds to answer the door and he was banging on it again and then put the code in and came right in, i thought it was my friends daughter playing around with us they were staying down the road, it really just made me sick to my stomach and uneasy because it was just me and my daughter and he really shouldn’t have done that, I loved everything else and will hope to stay here again, I just hope someone talks to staff because it was very rude

Loved our ocean view

We enjoyed our stay here. One thing I’ll say is if you have a toddler/child that takes baths keep in mind this condo only has a shower so you’ll want to plan accordingly. Other than that our stay here was nice.
