You've arrived at the perfect location for a beach vacation! Sitting just a short walk to the sugary white sands of the Emerald Coast, "Crystal Waves" is a beach lover's dream come true. This home has the classic beach house feel with a modern flare.



The outdoor loving guest will enjoy a large private backyard, plenty of chaise lounges for sunbathing, lush landscaping, a private pool and outdoor wet bar area!

Step inside and find a well appointed and airy living space, there's no reason to feel cramped in while you're on "island time." The spacious kitchen with stainless steel appliances is the place for morning coffee, evening laughs, and cooking up the most delicious family meal. High end furnishings in the kitchen include granite countertops with large center island, high end appliances, and so much more. The main living den is perfect for family time and entertainment. Catch the big game or unwind for a movie night on plenty of comfy couch or loveseat space, all while soaking in the natural light flowing into the room from all sides.



"Crystal Waves" includes sleeping accommodations for up to 18 guests. This home features 5 bright and spacious bedrooms and 5.5 bathrooms and is the ideal size for medium sized family fun.

Mother/Son graduation trip

The house was perfect with an open concept first floor, large bedrooms, two balconies and a huge lanai style back yard. The pool was heated upon our arrival, had several lounge and Adirondack style chairs for hanging out. The kitchen was well appointed, with all the necessities we needed for the week. The golf cart and bikes were great for hauling items to the beach but it was also very walkable! The management company was great to work with and quick to respond. I would recommend the property and stay here again!

Wonderful stay!

The property was amazing! Clean, pretty and very close to the beach. Great for families. Hosts were quick to get back to us and questions.we enjoyed the pool, bikes and golf cart. The backyard is wonderful most don't have big backyards like this we almost didn't want to leave to do anything because it was so relaxing. We would definitely rent this property again. Be sure to bring pool/beach towels as we couldn't find any in the house but also didn't ask since we brought a few.

We loved our stay!

We stayed at the Crystal Beach house for a week with family and had an amazing time! The neighborhood was walkable, we were very close to the beach and any thing we needed such as groceries, coffee, etc.. The house was very clean, organized and spacious. We opted to heat the pool after the first night because it rained the day we arrived and the water was pretty cold. After the heater was turned on the water was perfect and our kids swam at least 5 times a day in between golf cart rides to the beach. The golf cart allowed us to conveniently zip around and was so great to have. My only recommendations for the rental group are to include more toilet paper, dish detergent and laundry detergent as everyone goes through it so quickly and also include beach towels. We packed a few in our suitcase and purchased a few when we arrived but it would be so much easier if they were provided! Thanks for the amazing house, we hope to be back next year!!

Spring Break

Overall, this property is great. We loved that each bedroom had their own bathroom. Beds were fairly comfortable, although it felt as if the head of the bed in the upstairs master and upstairs king guest room went downhill. The kitchen was well-stocked. There was plenty of seating at the table and island for everyone to have a place to sit and eat. There were also additional bar stools along the wall. At the pool there was an ample amount of seating including areas that provided shade. The second refrigerator in the tiki bar area was awesome. The pool was a bit small, but nice. We had the pool heated for the week for $525. I think this charge was a bit much based on the size of the pool, but it definitely was warm- maybe a bit too warm. This rental came with a six-seater golf cart, six bikes, beach service including two chairs and an umbrella, and a credit for beach gear rental. All of these extras made our stay even better! Thank you to the owner/manager for going the extra mile to ensure a pleasant stay! Beach Reunion Group employees were very friendly and helpful!
