We had a great stay. Condo is clean and updated nicely. Great beach and area. Donna was extremely helpful throughout the process and an excellent property manager!
Condo is clean, quiet and very nice! Recently remodeled and perfect for a beach vacation. Beach service was outstanding. Close to everything. Very easy to schedule. Will definitely be back!
The house was very clean and there were instructions on the tv (etc). The view was beautiful and the pool was nice for later in the evening. It’s really close to beachfront restaurants which we enjoyed. Will definitely stay again!

We had a great stay, our view of the beach every morning was so peaceful and relaxing and more than we could have hoped for. Our stay at Crystal Sands was very relaxing. The condo was very clean and updated with bright kitchen colors and amenities and a beautiful view of the beach. The bed, linens, furniture, kitchen equipment was excellent. Thank you so much
Awesome property as described. Great Location. Visited for only 2 days after stay at another place in same complex. This place was unbelievable, updated, had all the accessories. Would highly recommend and would stay again. Only complaint would be high fees especially for a 2 day stay.

Jeff, thank you for the wonderful review! We have to charge the fees, cleaning fee, admin fee (which is the credit card fee that VRBO charges us) and then VRBO has their service fee on all bookings, whether its 4 weeks or one night. Please keep us in mind for next time!

We had an amazing stay at Crystal Sands 212B!! Everything was brand new which was SO NICE!!! Very clean. Loved the beach, location, convenience of parking. Only negative, the pool at building B was closed all week, the pool at building A was open, but we only used it briefly one night anyway. We enjoyed eating carry out from Kenny D’s many nights!! Very close to tons of shopping, fun, restaurants- would definitely recommend!!!!

Thank you so much. We just updated the unit, so glad you enjoyed yourselves. So sorry about the inconvenience of the pool. The complex has plans for a new updated pool in the future. Please come back and stay with us! Thanks!!
Overall we had a great stay in Crystal Beach. The best part was this condo was steps away from the beach. The rental included 2 beach chairs and an umbrella which was super helpful and it was within walking distance to a couple of restaurants. We had everything we needed in the condo which was recently remodeled and it was very clean. My only negative was the building the condo was located in. The pool was pretty much in the parking lot so not on the beach side and the building itself was very old and rundown.
The condo is lovely and comfortable. The views from the porch are beautiful! We had issues with the ac but the property manager had repair person come quickly. The beach chair/umbrella service is great! A few thing items that would be nice is to have: beach towels and a small cooler provided for guests. Also, there are no plastic cups or any extra toilet paper or paper towels provided. A few “extra” touches go a long way! If we brought kids, a sand toy kit would be helpful. Property grounds are well kept. Pool could use a good cleaning. But the beach front cannot be beat!
When we Arrived, there was no Management there, everything time we went no one was in the office there is no one to ask questions to will never stay there again.
Only if condos get in a better condition, and better management.

Erica, I am so sorry that you erroneously thought that the on site office at the Crystal Sands would answer any of your questions. They are another Management Company and do not have anything to do with this condo. I emailed you complete check in information when you booked on June 15. I noted that "if you have any questions, to please call me" and I gave you my phone number. On July 24, VRBO sent you the code to get in and my name, phone number and email address. 212B is a gorgeous condo that has been completely updated and has all 5 star reviews. I am very disappointed that you felt it necessary to give a 2 star review when you should have known to call me with any questions that you had. I am readily available by phone, email or text as evidenced by other reviews.

Renting this unit/property was everything it said. Clean, right on the beach, amazing views. Watched the dolphins play every morning. Beach set up was excellent. Everything you needed was there. And it is on the destins east side where the traffic is not bad at all. The only downfall about this property is it goes through Vrbo. Outrageous charges. All of the charges that were tacked on at the end almost-exceeded our condo fee itself. But again the condo was great. Would we rent this condo again? Yes
The apartment is as listed however the smell we had during our stay was bad. The apartment had a strong musty smell. I reported the smell and I was offered a deep duct cleaning but 4 days later and I had to leave the unit for 4 hrs.
My family stayed across the street for almost half of the price and her apartment was very clean and nice.

Elvira, I am so sorry that your stay at this gorgeous condo was negatively impacted by a musty smell. The Crystal Sands is Gulf Front, which provides our guests with amazing views and the convenience of walking just steps to the Emerald Green Waters. Unfortunately, we have found that guests love to listen to the sounds of the surf and sometimes leave the two patio doors open letting the humidity seep into the condo. The humidity gets into the HVAC vents and causes the musty smell. This is easily fixed by providing treatment to the HVAC system, vents and structure. I was able to arrange this treatment 3 days after being notified by you. The contractor had other jobs, and Thursday was his first available opening. As a safety precaution to our guests, especially little ones, we ask that you leave for 4 hours during this treatment. Initially, you said that you and your family would spend the 4 hours at another unit where some of your family was vacationing. However, when my contractor came to do the treatment, you would not allow him to do the work. Therefore, the treatment was immediately done as soon as you departed the unit. We take the health and wellbeing of our guests very seriously, and we want them to have an amazing vacation. As soon as a guest reports any issues, we take steps to correct as soon as possible. This condo is a Gem! The owners do everything possible to make it as nice, as updated, and as clean as humanly possible.
