About this property

Beach Cottage with Private Pool! Pet Friendly

Caribbean Breeze is Professionally Managed by Newman Dailey.

Whether its music, art or fashion- classics never go out of style. So it goes with this sunny Destin vacation rental in Crystal Beach. The breezy front porch, close proximity to the beach and cheery island decor give it all the essentials needed to make it a solid “go-to” when you can’t decide where to stay.

The broken-up floor plan of Caribbean Breeze can comfortably accommodate eight while giving each of them privacy. Plus, the southern bedrooms open up to the spacious front porch while the northern rooms overlook another classic feature of any good vacation rental- a private pool deck. The pool deck, draped in swaying palm trees and with plenty of lounge chairs, also features a grilling area because what is a Destin vacation without a poolside barbecue!

Caribbean Breeze also checks all the boxes when it comes to vacation home comforts- a full laundry room, stocked kitchen, TVs in each room, parking for three cars and cool tile floors top the list. Plus, it’s so nice to be able to walk to the beach and not have to worry about parking. Or for that matter you can also walk to the many restaurants, shops and beach stores right in the Crystal Beach neighborhood.

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

This pool CANNOT be heated.

We require a minimum length of stay during the summer and over holidays.
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.

New year

The property was great. A few maintenance mishaps. Refrigerator dis not function properly. Did not keep our food cool and had to toss out a lot of food. The management company had it checked out twice and then gave us a loaner refrigerator and reimbursed us for some of our food loss. They were quick to respond during this holiday week.

Would not stay again

Good things first - nice big front porch and location close to lots of shopping and restaurants, very handy. Nice separation of bedrooms. Crystal Beach was nice since you can walk a long way out in the ocean to knee deep. House needs all furniture updated, the beds and couches were horribly uncomfortable and the entire decor is outdated. Only very basic kitchen items provided and in not great shape. Kitchen is hard to use for more than one person. We were told pool heating was an option closer to our arrival (and we needed it due to weather) but then we’re told it was not available. So did not even use pool and it’s tiny anyway so that was a big disappointment. No hand rails on stairs to house and dangerous for older people, also dangerous tubs which have a giant tall tub to step over and no handrails. Have stayed in lots of vacation rentals and this is one of the worst. Owners need to redo and update and put some money into this to improve, including firmer beds and furniture, those pillow-basedcouches get lumpy and terrible too quickly. Our bodies hurt every day from sitting and or sleeping on bad furniture and mattresses.

We had a nice stay!

House was very clean and cute. AC worked well in August. Pool and backyard were a good little break from the beach. Neighborhood was quaint and very family friendly. Because kitchen is small, it’s easier to eat out than to cook large dinners there. I really had a wonderful stay. Check-in was a breeze as well.

House close to beach

House is within walking distance to beach. Didn’t use the pool but home does have a private pool, which we could see as very beneficial in the summer months.

Great Stay

This was a great house for our stay. We love the location as it is super close to the beach, you can go one way and use the Crystal Beach access or go the other way and use the Hutchison access. We were a little disappointed there wasn't any beach chairs or wagon available for use. This is the first house we've rented that didn't have those available.

Just What We Needed

This is a great little house in a great neighborhood. Short walk to the beach. It could use a little maintenance as some aspects are showing their age (broken chair poolside, towel rack missing, porch ceiling fan rusted out, lamp not working) and some of the decorating was a bit silly and random, but overall this place is exactly what we were looking for. It was clean and had lots of different places to hang out for its size. Front porch was great for evenings after days on the beach.

The location is perfect, only blocks from the beach. The property was rundown, and the kitchen not very well-equipped. We did have to go buy some fry pans to cook with..

Caribbean Breeze has it all! We enjoyed the pool, the quick walk to the beach, the cheery and comfortable interior but mostly the front porch with old glory waving in the breeze. Nice neighbor Scott was an unexpected bonus! Easy check in and great service from Newman-Dailey.

Perfect getaway!

This cottage was perfectly located and was adorable! The listing didnt do it justice as it was clean and spacious. The pool was a great addition and made staying in so fun. Everything was perfect with the exception of no frying pan and no propane in the grill.
