Area Attractions:
It's a terrific residential area, yet close to restaurants and activities in Destin.
Close by is Destin Commons, a beautifully landscaped, pedestrian-friendly area and a great family venue where children will love to play in the interactive water fountains. Also for the younger guests, a nautically/pirate themed outdoor playground features a 1,750 square foot soft play area with various creatures from the sea, slides, and a treasure chest! Destin Commons also has a mini-train for the kids. Destin Commons features over 75 shops and restaurants, including Godiva Chocolates, AMC Movie Theaters, and Bass Pro Shop.
If you are near Miramar Beach, the snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Dolphin Reef, deployed in 2017. Located just 685 feet straight out from the Miramar Regional Public Beach access (by Pompano Joe's), it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of the permitted sea bottom. The Dolphin Reef is at a depth of 12-20 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or another flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

Brandon, we appreciate you letting us know that you thought this well-located 3-bed, 2.5-bath townhome was very spacious, and everything was clean. Thank you for choosing RealJoy. Please visit again soon.
Great location.
Clean and up to date.
Home decor was nice, not to over crowded with random decor. Plenty of room.
Access to pool.
Only wish it came with a golf cart and that their was a water house to connect to the spigot in the garage.
Would definitely stay there again

Hi! We are happy to know that this well-located 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath townhouse in the 125 Crystal Beach community felt like home, finding it to be clean, spacious, and nicely decorated. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.
We enjoyed our stay. The location was good as well as the surrounding areas. We felt like we were in a safe location. The house layout worked out perfect for us. My only complaint is the cleanliness. The company should hire someone to come in a do a deep clean every so often. The walls were pretty filthy. Mold in the bathrooms. Dust and crumbs in corners and behind things.
We had an issue with the fire alarm system was keep going off
And we did not know the kitchen and living room dining room was all upstairs
But over all it was a nice pl

Bobby, Thank you for taking the time to review your stay. We apologize for the fire alarm going off. We hope that the refund we sent helped ease your frustration. We are glad that the place was nice overall and we hope you had a safe trip home.
This place had potential to be perfect! It’s a great location, safe neighborhood & great layout. Unfortunately the cleanliness was just not up to par. We walked around the house for ~2 hours without shoes and our feet turned black. We found clothing under the bed. There were personal belongings in the chairs and there were foot prints on the walls. It definitely could’ve benefited from a DEEP clean.
Overall the stay was nice, the cleanliness of the home was not. There was sand all in the bathtubs, dead and alive cockroaches, the floors we're not clean, the washing machine was filled with sand and There was a minor inconvenience with the refrigerator. The original fridge was not working and they brought a "loaner" fridge and put it in the garage, the kitchen is on the second floor. There was also blood stains on the cushions on both sides up on the patio.
Kelly, Thank you for your review. We appreciate you sharing your experience with us. If there’s anything specific you’d like to discuss or suggest, we're all ears. We hope to welcome you back in the future. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.
