Ultimate luxury beach oasis, ~3 Min to beach, Destin Area, Florida Vacation Rental by Owner

Relax and let the stress of the everyday melt away the second you step into this newly remodeled home only steps from Destin’s beautiful Crystal Beach. The home is immaculately designed in an upscale nautical theme and is filled with every amenity you can think of—large private pool, chef’s kitchen, firepit, grill, and numerous other entertaining spaces. The home comfortably sleeps 17 with 3000 square feet, 5 bedrooms, and 4.5 bathrooms—there’s room for the whole family and extended family!

A calming color palette, open concept, and modern design will invite you inside the second you step across the massive front porch and open the front door of this unique beachside home. You’ll immediately notice that every aspect has been thoughtfully designed for your ultimate comfort and enjoyment and to ensure the ease and convenience of your vacation. Stone flooring runs throughout the main level, bringing cohesiveness to the space.

The chefs in the family will likely gravitate to the bright, modern kitchen. High-end stainless steel appliances, all the cooking essentials, and endless quartz countertops make preparing an elaborate meal a breeze. You’ll also find a fully-stocked coffee station (essential before your day of exploring the best part of Destin). The living room is immediately adjacent to the kitchen, so you can remain in the action while you cook or just grab a snack or a drink. Once the food is ready, you can dine at the shiplap-wrapped peninsula/breakfast bar that seats six, or the dining table with a gorgeous chandelier overhead that seats at least 10. (There are also plenty of outdoor dining areas, but we’ll get to that!)

The living room comes with a large, plush sectional, gorgeous accents, and a refined boho flair. The large flatscreen smart TV is mounted above the gas fireplace on a shiplap accent wall. It’s the perfect spot to settle in with a favorite beverage for movie or game night after a day on the beach.

Just off the living room, French doors open to the pièce de résistance—the backyard. With a large private pool (with optional heating), a wood burning fire pit built into a lovely stone patio and surrounded by Adirondack chairs, a propane grill, comfortable lounge chairs, and two separate dining areas on a large deck, you could spend your entire vacation there and be totally content. String lights overhead give the space a stunning nighttime ambiance, but day or night, it has a fun and leisurely vibe that makes it easy for family and friends to reconnect.

There’s also a game room just off the main level. On nice days, open the garage door and let in the fresh air while you play ping pong or foosball. Catch your favorite sports team on the large, mounted flatscreen smart TV. There’s also a fridge in the room for easy access to drinks, and a pub table for spectators or snack breaks. There are truly so many spaces to make memories with those you love!

Upstairs was made for rest and serenity. Each of the five bedrooms is spacious, immensely comfortable, and beautifully designed, but the master suite takes the crown as a true sanctuary. A king bed with premium linens (which you’ll find on all of the beds), a seating area (with a pull-out double bed) and office nook, French door access to the side deck, and the master bathroom are just a few highlights. After an evening in this room, you’ll be refreshed and ready for another active day, and you’ll probably want to sleep in. In the master bathroom, you’ll find a high-end double vanity, a soaker tub, and a separate stand-up shower.

The remaining bedrooms fit plenty of sleeping space and storage into comfortable layouts that allow for everyone to spread out.

- Guest Bedroom 2: 1 king bed

- Guest Bedroom 3: 1 double bed/2 single beds (bunks)

- Guest Bedroom 4: 1 king bed and 1 queen bed/1 double bed/1 single bed (bunks)

- Guest Bedroom 5: 1 king bed, 6 single beds (bunks)

The home’s four and a half bathrooms come with hotel-quality soaps and towels, and ensure everyone has plenty of space to get ready for a day or night out.
