Crystal View 401, Destin Area, Florida Vacation Rental by Owner

The condo was beautiful and perfect for our family! Everything we needed was at our fingertips. The only thing I couldn’t find was a whisk but I probably overlooked it.

We enjoyed being close to all of our interests, the harbor, and the restaurants. The beach was beautiful and clean and we appreciated the umbrella and chairs.

Some of the activities participated in were parasailing and deep-sea fishing. The captain and crew on the Anastasia were amazing! And if you go to Jacacuda’s after your fish are cleaned, they will cook your catch and it was only $15 per person with two sides. They did an amazing job and cooked it several different ways so we could try it. It was wonderful and so rewarding after a very hard day’s work!

All of you were so easy to work with and I greatly appreciated the quick response to emails. Everyone in our family wants to come back and stay there again because it all worked out so perfectly. I hope that will be soon! Thanks so much for a wonderful place to stay and all the conveniences we could hope for!

Best vacation in years! My family and I have stayed in the Emerald Coast area for the last 4 years and this was the very best stay we’ve had. The Condo was immaculate, there were 12 of us in all and everyone had a bed or sleeper sofa and all very comfortable. The condo elevator and the gated entry to the private beach area right in front of the building was a huge plus! We cooked breakfast every morning and a few dinners and the kitchen was very adequate, some of the knives need sharpening but not a big deal. And oh the balcony, roomy and seating very comfortable, could sit and relax for hours. Laura, Renee and Carmen were very accessible to answer my questions by email and very timely. My only suggestion is that in the description for the rental that it include that there is a 2 car max 3 at the most and it is first come first serve. The public parking didn’t allow overnight parking so that can be an issue if multiple families are coming in to stay.

Best AC we’ve ever had in a rental. Worth every penny for our family of six adults to share an awesome week together.

We've been visiting Destin for nearly 20 years and have stayed in many places along Scenic 98. We enjoyed this unit more than any other we've stayed in. Unit 401 at Crystal View was roomy, nicely appointed and the view was terrific! On this trip we were joined by two other couples and everyone said the same thing.......we want to come back to this condo again. A huge bonus was the 3 king size beds. So many condos have 1 King in the master and then queen or two twins in the other bedrooms. It's difficult to find 3 kings. Crystal View is centrally located and easy to get to. If you want, you can walk to Pompano Joe's for dinner as well as stroll along the private beach. Renee and Laura make sure you have all the information you need, both for the unit and to have a great stay! We highly recommend this condo!

We are so glad that you enjoyed the condo. We hear from our guests time after time how much they love this condo and this complex--from the very nice spacious interior to the large balcony with the fabulous view and the uncrowded easy access beach. We look forward to your return. Be sure to reserve early as these fabulous condos book far in advance.

We were so pleased with this condo. We have been vacationing to the Deatin area for 11 years and this is by far the best condo we have stayed in. It was very clean and nicely furnished. Plenary of space. The condo was stocked with everything we needed to cook and relax. The view of the beach was stunning and the complex was very well maintained. It was quiet and peaceful. I'd highly recommend renting this condo. We did not want to leave.

My family stayed in Uni t 401 for a well needed vacation. The condo was beautifully decorated, spacious and clean. The view of the beach is spectacular and we especially enjoyed the large balcony. We enjoyed this condo so much that we are already making plans to stay in this unit again next year.

We loved this condo and the location was perfect. We stayed a week and wished we could stay longer. The unit was clean and everything we required was provided by the owner. It is common to be allotted just a few towels and wash clothes which is usually a bother. We were given plenty of towels, as well as other supplies. The beds and furniture are comfortable and the beautiful porch furniture is delightfully comfortable. We appreciated having three king beds; no one had to be given a small bed.

Thank you so much Jan. We find that our guest do love that beautiful balcony with the beautiful (beyond beautiful) panoramic view of the gulf. We hope that you will be back soon.
