Villages of Crystal Beach is an exclusive, gated community only a few blocks from the beautiful blue waters and white sandy beaches of Destin. You can make the walk on foot or hop on the free seasonal trolley service (Memorial Day through Labor Day): they will even pick you up at the house and drop you off right at the beach! The pool area at Villages of Crystal Beach is a vacation must! The lagoon style zero entry pool is 30,000 square feet of gorgeous, sparkling clear water. There is a spa, tropical landscaping, and plenty of seating areas. It also has surround sound, a flat screen TV, and a grilling area to help you relax and unwind.
Please note that there are parking restrictions within the Villages of Crystal Beach. There are three parking spaces available in the driveway of the home. Trailers, RV's, boats, golf carts, and motorcycles are not allowed within the community gates; alternate parking arrangements will need to be made for these items.
Area Attractions:
It's a terrific residential area, yet close to restaurants and activities in Destin. Walk the short walk to the beach, or hop on the free, seasonal trolley. Nearby are 6 miles of paved trails - perfect for both walking and biking.
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 permitted sea bottom. The Dolphin Reef is at a depth of 12-20 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

Hi! We appreciate you providing us with some feedback regarding your great rental experience. We are happy to know that you enjoyed an amazing stay in this five-bedroom, four-bath Villages of Crystal Beach home. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.
Overall, it was a great trip. The house needs a little updating in some areas, but it wasn’t too bad. Housekeeping could do a better job at cleaning. The pool area is nice.

Everything was very good, they just need to fumigate because of the flukes in the kitchen cabinets.

Genesis, Thank you for the 5-star review. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention. Like all of our units, this property is on a regular pest maintenance program. However, we will certainly investigate and resolve this situation. We are glad everything else was good and we hope you will join us again soon. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.

Tiare, Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback regarding your stay. We wish you had let us know that the bathrooms weren't clean and you needed extra blankets and a coffee pot. We could have sent a new cleaner and brought those extra items to you. We hope everything else about your stay was great and you had a happy Anniversary.
We loved the location and pool. House was very comfortable but the kitchen needed more pans and hot pads for the oven. They say there’s enough toiletries for a few days and they’re not wrong. One roll of paper towels, two trash bags, one roll of toilet paper per restroom. We were fine with our three night stay.

Lizzie, we appreciate you taking the time to provide us with some feedback regarding your rental experience. We are happy to know that you loved the location and pool during your stay in this very comfortable five-bedroom, four-bath rental, which you would recommend. We will forward your comment regarding the need for more pans and hot pads to property managers so that they may provide any suggestions to the owner of this property. Please accept our apology for any inconvenience caused by the number of items provided. As mentioned in the rental agreement, housekeeping leaves a limited amount/starters of such products as toilet paper, trash bags, paper towels, and dish detergent. Guests must supply any additional items needed for/during their stay. Thank you for choosing RealJoy.
It was a good house. Very roomy. Close to everything. Walking distance to beach, pool right around the corner.pool area was clean. Quite. I understand not providing personal care items but..a house for 16 people, 4 bathrooms and all you provide is 4 rolls of toilet paper, 2 dishwasher detergent, liquid dish soap. I am on vacation I don't want to hand wash dishes..yes they tell you they provide bare minimum but with all the fees I personally think some things should be adequately provided for. Overall this is a nice place. ay.

Roaches!!!!!
Infestation of roaches, hard to say much more. And the manager has not called me back!
Overall the stay was good. The toilet on the second floor (bedroom w/balcony) does runs after flushing will stop once you jiggle the handle. We did killed a few roaches and had a sighting of a bed bug the day of our departure. I reported it after leaving the property and probably should have sooner as they determined no findings but I have no reason to lie. There were no issues with the property itself as far as size and rooms as it was a total of 14 that stayed and we were comfortable. Just recommend after each stay possibly spray for bugs…I understand the climate/location in which I am in but I felt one bug was too many let alone the amount we killed within living quarters.
