About this property

Destin Retreat Heated Pool Bikes Golf Cart 1block BEACH 2 Kings 2 Houses+Loft

*Summer 25 is set for 7 night stays Friday to Friday…beat the crowds and traffic on Saturdays!!

2025 Updates: New Pool Liner, New Furniture, Updated Bedrooms, Appliances, etc.
This is a privately owned and managed property so you get quality personal attention and our house is maintained to ensure guest enjoyment!

Walk into the private gates of our beautifully landscaped house and you will feel as if you are staying in your own compound. This is no doubt the most unique set up in all of Crystal Beach. The 75ft x 150ft oversized lot allows plenty of parking. The courtyard/pool area is totally enclosed creating a sense of privacy while actually being in the center of everything.

This property has had plenty of upgrades and refinements since purchased in 2020! From technology to new luxury furniture and decor, you will not be disappointed. Our guests are in awe the second they walk into the homes featuring 11 different cheerful room colors.

POOL:The pool is 5 ½ ft deep (3ft at shallow end) and has been converted to a salt water. Not to confuse this with water in the gulf. It simply takes salt and converts it to chlorine making it feel silky and smooth. Approx. size is 12’x20’

Enjoy the gulf breeze in a 6 seater Street Legal Golf Cart. No hassle with going to pick it up. It’ll be here waiting on you when you arrive. Included complementary with your stay. Min 3-night rental off season and 7-night minimum June/July.

From the private heatable pool to the close prximity to the beach, stores, and restaurants, Gigi's Sunshine met our every expectation.
