About this property

Dog Friendly, Private Pool, Picturesque Neighborhood

Sunkissed Cottage Professionally Managed by Newman-Dailey

March 2024 - new kitchen, new bathrooms, new flooring, new paint and more!!

Life at the beach is a feeling and a lifestyle. The décor is cozy and comfortable. This is the perfect vacation home for summer escapes and special celebrations. The widow's watch, high above with a 360 degree view, is a fourth bedroom or a get away for the young family members. The two primary suites are perfect for two couples or families. A short stroll will take you to the beach, many popular restaurants, movie theatres, grocery stores and shopping including the Destin Commons. Relax in your own large fenced in backyard with private pool and enjoy your escape from stress. From the wraparound porches you can listen to the echoes of the surf, feel the Gulf breeze and leave your cares behind.

This home is dog friendly. You must pay a pet fee (please inquire before booking) and provide up to date shot records.

We do not rent to anyone under 25 or to students

Guests receive a welcome kit with small dishwasher detergent, dish soap, sponge, a roll of paper towels, and laundry detergent. There will be an initial trash liner in each receptacle and a set of toilet paper and soaps for each bathroom provided. Guests will need to replenish supplies for longer stays.

This pool can be heated between October- April for a fee upon request to our office.

Great location!
My husband and I stayed here the week of our wedding and it was amazing. Super close to shopping, dining, and the beach. There's a lot of space for big families and the backyard was perfect for our dogs.

Paradise in Sept
Hubby and I had never been to the beach in Sept but we will definitely be doing it again!! Weather was perfect . . No humidity No afternoon rain showers!! No crowds to wait on tables for dinner!! The water was crystal clear and so warm (not chilly like I would've thought in Sept)!! The house was so clean, 2 king-size beds that were very comfy!!! Location was perfect too, just a short walk to beach! The home is located on semi-busy road so I would expect it to be noisier in the summer with activity but not bad at all in Sept. It was a great week!!! Thank you!!

Beyond our expectation!
We had a great experience on the property! What you see on the pictures is what you get. Walking distance from the beach was very convenient. And it feels like home right when you start your vacation. It was a little expensive, but it was worth it. 10/10 recommend!

Great Location
House is located perfectly within walking distance to the beach and also walking distance to the shops and restaurants. The house was perfectly for our family! It was so nice having the pool to come back to everyday too from the beach! We’ve been to Destin for years and this has been our favorite property we’ve ever stayed at.

Great place to stay in Destin
My family and I have been vacationing in Destin the last couple of years and this is by far the best place we stayed. It's a short walk to the beach and to some restaurants/shopping areas. The place is very spacious and was really clean. The pool was perfect and they even had people clean it throughout the week which was nice. We will definitely be coming back!!!

We had a great time. Location was excellent. We spent a lot of time in the back yard.
We found the management company to be excellent. The house is showing its age and could use some TLC. But overall we had a great time. Wish we could have taken our dog on the beach or in the parks, but the back yard was wonderful.

Fabulous Thanksgiving Stay!
The booking and check-in process was extremely easy! Property is in a great location and well maintained. The pool heater had been turned on and water was ready upon arrival. Two very small suggestions: 1. Oven door needs adjusted to close tightly. (May assist with energy bills. 2. Bikes available to use are a great perk. Suggest checking the air in the tires prior to guest arrival or having a tire pump available. Our family had a lovely fun filled Thanksgiving in this property!

Nice
Crystal Beach is a beautiful area. The location of the house was great. Close to the beach and shopping. In general, the house was nice. The pool and back yard were ideal for us and our dog. The inside could use some updates. My biggest complaint was the appliances. The dishwasher, washer and dryer were old and extremely noisy. We would turn them on and have to leave due to the noise they made. We used the oven on our last day and it smelled strongly of gas. I called maintenance and they were prompt to arrive. They were going to have someone come out the day we left. Overall, I would rate the house a 3-4 star.

We found the cottage to be a in a great location and really enjoyed breakfast at Camille's every morning. We were not impressed with the cleanliness, they did offer to send someone out and clean it again. It was comfortable for maybe four or five people, we had nine and it was a squeeze. Probably would not stay here again with such a big group but did enjoy Destin and the beach very much.
