Top Crystal Beach Hotel Reviews

Luxury Home, Gulf Views, Private Pool/Jacuzzi, Movie Theater, Golf Cart Rental

10/10 Excellent

"The hosts were great. Any issues we had were addressed beyond our expectations. The would only say to future renters of this particular property, if your dogs are under 30 lbs they will probably fit through the fence around the front and its not completely fenced on the side. There are plenty of options to walk them on a leash otherwise."

Private Beachfront Home, Swimming Pool, Kayak, Paddle Boards & Free Chair Set Up

10/10 Excellent

10/10 Excellent

"We had a great trip to Destin! 13 people (5 were 9yo or less) and a yellow lab stayed here for a long beach vacation and it never felt cramped. Kids loved the downstairs bunk room and we all enjoyed the game room. Kitchen is fantastic for those who like to cook. Had trouble with the washing machine and the host had a new one delivered about 24 hours after I let them know about the issue. A little trouble with the AC one evening after a particularly hot day, but they came out and serviced it the next day and we were nice and cool the rest of the trip. The Golf Cart was a nice addition, even though the walking beach access is very close. If you have umbrellas, tents and chairs for a large group to transport this significantly reduces the workload. Great area, close to everything we were looking for. We would definitely stay there again in the future."
