Great property!

The property and location were great! This was by far the cleanest rental that we have stayed in. The resort style pool was really nice and the kids loved it. David was a great host and so easy to communicate with! We will definitely be staying here again!

Great Stay in Destin for New Years

Everything was as described and there were tons of amenities! We were traveling with small children (1 and 3) and the house had a lot of extras that made our stay easier. The communication process was easy and clear. The house was extremely clean! We had no issues during our stay.

Great Location!

This house is in a very nice neighborhood that is a quick 10-minute walk to the ocean. It fit 7 of us perfectly! Tiffany was very responsive with any questions or needs that came up. Some of the furniture is a bit dated but it was very clean and none of that bothered our group!

Family Gathering

We are new to this part of Florida and was really impressed with the neighborhood. I would recommend this house to any families looking for a clean, safe, beach trip. The beach is about .5 mile walk that is easy and the house provided a wagon that made hauling our cooler and beach supplies a breeze. Restaurants and grocery stores were super close and the outlet mall was only 4 miles away. We will be looking forward to staying in the same place very soon.

Great Condo

The condo was great for the 6 of us. The only complaint I would have is we did try to contact the property manager with the number given, and it said the mail box was full. We just had some questions about there not being a shuttle pass in the room, as others told us there units did. It was not in the listing, so this condo does not offer that service. It is a beautiful place to stay!! We had a great time!!

Can’t wait to return!

Arriving to the property, I immediately noticed how close to the beach and shopping we were. The location is unparalleled. The home is very comfortable with updated finishes, comfortable beds and plenty of room for the whole group. We had a small issue with parking but Rebecca was quick with a solution and made herself very accessible to us. The neighborhood is beautiful with waterfalls around the pool, secure gates and brick driveways. For a moment, I forgot I was in Crystal Beach as the water looked straight out of a Caribbean post card. Would Definitely

Not what I expected

About 3.5 blocks to a beautiful beach but the development was crowded and partially occupied by undesirable people. I witnessed a fight at the pool and ended up leaving. The house was okay but could have been cleaner. The sheets had sand and hair. We found a huge roach in the shower. For the price we paid, I was expecting something more glamorous. The agent was very responsive so issues there.

Sweet Spot

Let's start with the positive. Easy to locate, house outside super cute property, tons of space in house, easy access once we figured out codes, pool beautiful and close by, beach access fairly close, Denton is a great cozy town with exception of paying to get in and paying to exit town, tons of close by amenities (restaurants, entertainment etc), property in small village type feel, inside house quiet as a mouse (so you wouldn't know if anything was going on outside). NOW, with exception of decorations (super cute) house was a basic drab beige outdated colors, furniture (seating) was well worn and not in the best way, cleaning fee was really high considering that fee didn't really imply that it would be spotless when you arrive, stained and scuffed walls, stained baths and showers, broken toilet paper holder, basically everything inside needs updated (simple fix), neighbors were very very close together so no privacy but inside you hear nothing so. Even though the neighborhood is congested, overall I would recommend this home for families that need a place to rest during an active day out. Property mgr was quick to respond to me and my family enjoyed our time here. Thank You

Great family vacation!

In short, great property; I'd stay here again and I'd recommend. We stayed with our family (includes three teenagers) and my brother's family (with a toddler). We had plenty of space and the layout of the house was great. The house was very clean and updated. We had everything we needed. The kitchen was well-appointed (and I'm usually a bit picky about this!). Plenty of dishes, glasses for a family of 8; was able to easily cook meals in the house. The neighborhood was nice and the pool was good. There is a staff member always at the pool. The walk to the beach was ~ 7-8 minutes. We walked the first few days and then decided to try to the van. The van was great - they put our wagon in the back of the van. The drivers were super friendly and brought us right back to our front door. The location was super convenient to grocery stores, shopping and restaurants. Communication with the owner was very prompt. We arrived in town a bit earlier and after messaging the owner, she told us the house was ready (we were able to get in a bit early, which was great because it was pouring rain). Great family vacation!

Great house and location

The house is exactly as described. It is lovely and quite homey and comfortable. The beach is not that far although it was a little farther than I was thinking. It’s a 7-8 minute casual walk, which is not bad for those of us without any disabilities, but it was maybe a 10 to 15 walk for my mom, which was rough in the heat. However, the shuttle service is available and very prompt. They were a few days were he even picked us up when he saw us walking. The kitchen had everything we needed in the cart provided for the beach was very handy. The swimming pool was fabulous. It was one of our favorite parts and unfortunately we only used it one day! The food recommendations were right on point. Also, communication with the owner was very prompt and helpful. We would definitely stay here again if we return to Destin. Thank you so much for a wonderful vacation home away from home.

Destin vacation

This was our first time to Destin and the Villages at Crystal Beach. The property location was great; within walking distance to the beach and many stores were nearby. The beach was stunning with soft white sand and crystal clear water. You can rent very nice beach chairs and umbrella at the beach; this unit only supplied two beach chairs. The property has a beautiful pool and hot tub, which we really enjoyed. I missed the comfort of my own bed at home but it was worth it!

Perfect Trip to Destin

The property met every expectation for our party of 10. It was clean, comfortable, perfect location and short walk to the beach. Kitchen was fully stocked with the necessary cooking supplies, bathrooms were loaded with towels, the added bonus was the beach chairs and toys for the two teenagers in the group! We had no issues with getting into the home and even came with a welcome basket of goodies. Neighborhood was perfect, quiet at around 10pm and buzzing with beach goers in the morning. Russell Vacations were the absolute best group of people to work with on securing the place, quick to respond and ensured everything was as expected. We had no major issues with anything, the WiFi wasn’t very good upstairs for the boys Xbox but once we brought it downstairs closer to the router it worked just fine. We definitely plan to use this rental again on our next trip to Destin.

LOVE

Loved our stay here. Property had everything we needed and the location was great. The only downside was that the pool and especially the spa was constantly over run by kids. During the day it was no big deal. We loved that it was a family oriented place, but every evening/night we tried to use the hot tub and had no luck. It was definitely irritating. The pool rules were not being enforced because there were no adults supervising a majority of the kids there (which was a pool rule). Other than that I highly recommend this super cute place!!

Very nice place to stay

The property is located in a resort with a nice pool and in walking distance to the beach. However it is a small public beach. We ended up going to Henderson Beach Ststd spark which is only about a mile away. You do have to pay a daily entrance fee but to us it was worth it. Be aware that the properties are very close together.
