About this property

The Charleston-COMMUNITY POOL-GOLF CART INCLUDED

The CHARLESTON is a marvelously designer decorated Southern beach home with all the charm & elegance of its namesake city. You'll enjoy our community pool directly across from the home, and our quaint balconies for relaxing. The Charleston is located 1 block off Destin's finest white sand beaches and only a few blocks away from restaurants, entertainment, parks, shopping and more! The Charleston INCLUDES a 2019 street legal 6 seater golf cart for an easier and more enjoyable ride to beaches, restaurants, entertainment or just a soothing sunset pleasure cruise.

The Charleston was designed with an open floor plan for entertainment and dining to encourage good times and lasting memories that your family & friends will not soon forget.

The back yard invites you to a quaint patio area with plenty of seating and loungers for your group to grill and chill and enjoy your favorite beverages! Your beach trips are made easy with beach towels & the use of our complimentary SIX PASSENGER Golf Cart-all we're missing is you and your family!

The enclave of homes Crystal Beach Cottages also has its own exclusive pool to cool down in adjacent to home (25 ft. Away). There is also an outdoor shower on premise for rinsing off after the pool or beach. This pool is NOT heated, unfortunately. Enjoy your morning coffee or evening cocktails while relaxing on 2 full wrap-around decks with hammocks and rockers overlooking a lushly landscaped residence.

The first floor of this cozy home offers the living room and open dining right as you walk in. Our sectional is great for relaxing, or for providing a place to sleep on the queen sleeper sofa for extra guests! The fully stocked kitchen and laundry room can be found here as well.

A full bathroom and the first bedroom with twin over full bunks is steps away from the kitchen area as well. We have an air mattress stowed away in the closet for guests to use if desired.

Upstairs we offer a full bathroom to the left in the hallway, leading to the Queen bedroom with a beautiful balcony for your enjoyment. To the right can be found the Master suite with a full bathroom and plenty of room in the walk in closet.

We're also here to make traveling with your little ones a little lighter when packing! We provide a high chair, pack & play, and baby gate available at our home for every guest.

All linens are provided for any length of stay, with a washer and dryer in the home for guest use. Do note that we supply a small courtesy amount of toilet paper, paper towels, trash bags, dishwasher/dish soap, laundry detergent, and hand soap that's typically enough for the first 24 hours of your stay. For larger groups or longer trips it is recommended that you bring additional supplies as seen fit for your group size/length of stay.

Guests have access to the entire home, the garage for golf cart parking, the community pool directly across the road, and the beach walkway to either side of the home. Our community pool is not heated.

We are a professional management company, always available to take phone calls with any and all questions or concerns (other than the middle of the night, when we are all asleep, unless it's an emergency!) Please do NOT send a text at any time! We happily respond to all messages directly through your booking platform app. If you’re placing a phone call, please know the location you’re staying, and the logistics of your trip so we can easily access it and provide efficient service to you!

The “Charleston” is conveniently located 20-30 minutes from the airport (traffic permitting). It is also 15 minutes from major entertainment venues -The Boardwalk, SanDestin, Baytowne Wharf, Destin Commons, and Silver Sands Outlets most of which are right in your “back yard”. You will also be within cruising distance to the “Scenic Hwy. 30A” and many other Destin hotspots. Boating, wave-runners, paddle-boarding, sunset dolphin cruises and just about any amenity you can imagine are within moments of the home along with the finest fishing and charters in the Gulf of Mexico (We're not called the Luckiest Fishing Village without such a namesake!)

We offer a 6-seater golf cart included in your stay which is the preferred method of most in the Crystal Beach neighborhood. It certainly makes the trip to the beach effortless, and is definitely enjoyable for the whole family!

Great location close to the beach
We enjoyed our stay in Destin at The Charleston Clipper Cove! Close to the beach via walking or loading up the golf cart. Comfy beds and nice accommodations.

Owner with volatle temper
Overall, the property itself is fine. It was clean, with ample space and aminities. It is about 3 blocks to the beach - an easy walk. Also near many restaurants and shops. The pool was small and only 3 feet deep - but great for kids and across the street. My reason for the rating of 2 has to do with the following incident. I initially rented the property through another company. On Friday evening, before leaving Sunday, I was reading about how we were to get into the property. I also read that I should send my email for a "waiver" to use the golf cart. The information about the "waiver" had been sent when I reserved the property - but not the extent of the "waiver." When I received the "waiver", it was very extensive and required "renter's insurance" for the use of the golf cart. I telephoned my auto insurance company (Saturday morning) and learned that our policy did not cover "golf cart rentals." I asked the owner (Matthew) if he had rental insurance to purchase - but he did not. I told him in an email that I wished that I had been told earlier about the need for insurance rather than simply the need to sign a "waiver" so that I could have planned better. I also mentioned that I would put that in my review. He responded with the following statement and CANCELED my reservation - "If you are already unhappy with our accommodations before stepping foot on property and are threatening a poor review, that certainly makes me very uncomfortable as extortion is certainly not tolerated by our small business or "another company name" per their terms and conditions." He did not even give me a chance to respond! - I was typing a response and I looke up and saw "CANCELED" by my reservation. (He did refund my money.) I telephoned tthe other company and they were not able to help me. I looked online at VRBO for a place to stay and saw the same property for rent - as it was the only property available in my price range the day before departure - I took a chance and booked it through VRBO - and we did stay there and it was as I described. I think I would have given it a 4 rating had it not been for this owner. If you stay with this owner - be cautious with your statements! Message from Peri

Nice Area
We enjoyed our visit to the Destin area for the first time. The shopping and restaurants are wonderful, and the beach is beautiful. The house was very comfortable, however, we had a hard time figuring out the TV operation. The gas grill needs repair and the propane tank was not filled. Other than those two issues, we enjoyed our stay at the Charleston and would recommend it.
