Newly and beautifully remodeled in 2024, this second-floor, beachfront condo gives you a gorgeous view of the Gulf of Mexico from its private balcony. With the beach and an outdoor swimming pool awaiting you downstairs, this is a place for memorable days spent on the shores of Destin.

The Perfect Stay

This unit was one of the cleanest places we have stayed. Kudos to the cleaning crew! The decor and bedding were wonderful! The view and location are the best as well. We love Crystal Sands and have loved every unit we have stayed in.

Awesome trip

I actually have already left a review the day I checked out, but we had a great time. The room was very clean, loved the decor, well equipped kitchen, plenty of towels and linens. The beds were very comfortable, which isn’t always the case. The view was awesome!! Perfect location, not as crowded. We will definitely stay here again!

A dream vacation!

We had the absolute time on our family vacation! Our two boys loved the built in bunk beds, and slept well every night of our stay. This rental is in a prime location, we loved waking up everyday to the sound of the ocean from our balcony. The condo was clean, and all the appliances worked great. Beds were so comfortable! We loved that there were plenty of towels for showering, and that the condo included a washer and dryer. The beach, and pool was private including codes to enter which we loved. We would definitely recommend and plan on staying again!

Could be better

This was a beautiful condo. It was very nice. The cleanliness needed some work. The dishes were not clean at all. We had to wash everything before using it. We pulled a cup out of the cabinet with lipstick on it. I know this is not the owners fault though. The balcony door was really hard to open and there were some broken blinds… The location is great! You are very close to the beach. This is not a busy location which is what we enjoyed the most. You have wonderful views and it was quiet for the most part.

Last minute getaway

We decided last minute to go to the beach. Crystal Sands did not disappoint. We started our mornings drinking coffee on the balcony and enjoyed our days on the beach. Everything was perfect.

Amazing!

The condo looks exactly like the pictures! An amazing view of the beach! The kitchen is FULLY stocked with dishes, extra blankets and towels were in the bathrooms, and even board games like chess was found in the living room! I would definitely come back again. Only somewhat con is the carpet because of sand getting everywhere, but they had a vacuum there for that too.

Clean & Great Location

Our family has stayed in this condo complex over the years. Not the most modern Of decor, but clean, comfortable & kitchen had what we needed. This last visit was for telework - which was perfect. Balcony on the beach, internet worked great & close to great restaurants.

The kitchen had everything we needed to feel at home, the bunk beds were surprisingly quite comfortable, the bathrooms had plenty of towels and washcloths, and access to the small washer and dryer was wonderful. Had an excellent stay!
