Great place to stay!
This was the perfect house for the 11 of us that spent the weekend. The covered porch was great for hanging out in the shade, the pool was very clean, and the front yard is perfect for cornhole. The 6 seater golf cart made transportation/parking at the beach a breeze. Comfortable beds and plenty of parking. Great place to stay!

Fantastic Stay!
The property is excellent! My friends and I (12 total) fit comfortably in the house. It is only a short walk from the beach, and the pool was a great hangout spot when we weren't in the mood for the beach. The owners are super nice as well. Highly recommend!

Nice place to stay
This was in a nice location to everything in Destin. The pool was great, the outdoor sitting area (you can see the street so not private) but my family loved it out there. The kids loved the basketball hoop as well. The inside was nice nothing fancy but homey. Lydia was a good host I would recommend this property.

Great family house
We loved the house, outdoor area and pool. We would definitely stay here again. The host were courteous and prompt for any issues that we had. The beach area was not great. To many private areas and not enough public access. We were disappointed with the beach. The house had a great pool that we thoroughly enjoyed. 😊🌴

Last minute getaway
This was very last minute after cancelling my birthday trip to Jamaica. I was shocked to find such a beautiful property so close to the 4th. House was very clean and the amenities were great. Especially the pool. We didn’t need to buy anything. Property is right around the corner from everything. Lydia was very responsive and accommodating. I’m hoping we make this an annual trip moving forward - and will definitely stay more than two nights in the future.

Perfect family getaway!
The house is exactly as described in the listing. The walk to the beach was easy. The whole family enjoyed the pool. The perfectly stocked kitchen was the best feature for us. We cooked every day, and everything we needed was already there. All we had to supply was the food. We will tell our friends about this perfect beach getaway.

Great house, great location, great host.
The house was directly as listed, was perfect for 4 couples. Lydia was amazing accommodated us getting in early on Friday since our flights got there so early. She came back showed us how to work a few things and was very responsive. Would love to see a ceiling fan outside on the patio but other than that everything was great.

Annual Family Vacay
It was our first trip to Destin, Florida and overall our stay was very nice! The house is a short walking distance to the beach. However we still rented a golf cart which worked out really nicely. There is a free parking lot just for the carts next to the beach entry we used. The kids absolutely enjoyed the pool after a long day at the beach. It was a quiet area which we really appreciated. This was the first family trip we made since the passing of my sister in law and we made a lot of happy memories while staying here. Thank you for your hospitality.

We had the best week in Destin staying with Lydia. She was always helpful and responsive whenever we reached out. Our flights got changed and she let us check in early so we didn’t have to lug everything around all day with our 11 month old in toe. The house was close to everything we needed/ wanted to do, we didn’t need to use a vehicle at all. A short golf cart ride to the beach, shops, restaurants, etc. We will definitely be back and we couldn’t recommend this trip enough!

Great location with nice pool
We rent in Destin every year. We enjoy the location and proximity to the beach. This property is average based on what we normally see. It is a nice home, but the previous reviews set unrealistic expectations. We were expecting a little more based on the review we read prior to booking, but were not surprised with the reality. It has clearly been a rental for a very long time and needs a little tlc. The mattress in the owner's suite has two dips that are about 6" deep, with what feels like a mound in the middle (certainly seems like it was a nice mattress when it was newer). Your are basically stuck in one spot in the bed while sleeping. The outdoor cushioned furniture is torn. While the home is relatively clean, we found excess layers of dust in the downstair bath and light fixtures. Also, our kids feet would turn black when they walked bare foot.

About the host

Host profile image
We are a family of five. My husband a Soldier for the U.S. Navy, three boys ages 16, 14 and 11 and a myself a housewife. We love the city of Destin and the 'K Sea's' home. We got transferred here two years ago and we are sad to leave this small town full of happy tourist and the best beaches. We are being transferred again to Virginia Beach. We plan on coming back after we retire from the military and meanwhile we have to rent the home. We hope you enjoy your stay here as much as we do. Thank you for supporting us in renting out our home. We appreciate your business!

Why they chose this property

Why the Owner Chose Crystal Beach: We purchased a home here because we love 'Crystal Beach', and the SAFE neighborhood. We especially enjoy the home is 'walking distance to shopping and dining. The house has the biggest Deepest pool In our neighborhood

What makes this property unique

Being in the military we have traveled so much. We have seen many beaches, but nothing beats Crystal beach. I enjoy driving the golf cart down the block and getting to the beach, I enjoy walking around the corner to O'Quigiles and getting a beer and watch the latest game. I enjoy the drinking a glass of wine on the porch and listen to the 22 palm trees at the 'K Sea's' home.
