The pictures (especially of the beach and water) don't do this place justice! This condo is very roomy and extremely well-appointed. Comfortable seating, luxury beds, an excellent kitchen- it's all here! We wish we could have stayed longer! Crystal-clear water and super-soft sand. Two chairs and an umbrella ready for us each day, and so many places close by to eat and/or shop. The owners and cleaners were so responsive and great to work with. Thank you!

This is our family's vote for the absolute best place we have stayed in Destin. It was very refreshing to be able to be in touch with the owner directly. This place is LOVELY... we all wished we could have stayed longer. The kitchen was gorgeous and so well stocked (cooking utensils, glassware, etc.); we actually felt like we were in someone's home, and not a rental. Sitting on the balcony at night right at the beachfront was a dream. We can't wait to go back! It is even better than the photos.

Great location. Very clean and beautiful. Needs vacuum available for dark area rug. Host was very nice and responsive. Feel like third room was somewhat misrepresented in picture. Angled ceiling with no windows. My grands called it the hobbit room. Also, chairs on beach were great.

Thank you for your review! We’re so glad you enjoyed the location, cleanliness, beach chairs, and our responsiveness. Regarding the third bedroom, we do our best to represent the space in our listing and photos accurately. The captions note that the ceiling is slanted due to the roofline, and we recommend that room for children or teens. We had to smile at your grands calling it the “Hobbit room!” Others have called it a “man cave!” (Also, the condo is an interior unit, so the double sliding glass doors facing the gorgeous Gulf are the only windows.) We also appreciate the suggestion to have a vacuum available and will consider it.

This beautiful unit has the most amazing views. What a treat to be right on the water! The kitchen is gorgeous and has everything you need. It’s part of a large living/dining area which suited our family of 5. The master bedroom with king bed is spacious and beautifully decorated. Same with the bathroom that is attached to this room but is also conveniently accessible from the hallway. The loft area has a large king bed which was ideal for our over 6ft tall son and the kids room off this - through the second bathroom - was a fun hangout for our two youngest kids. It’s worth noting that this room off the loft area (which features two single trundle beds that could sleep 4), would not be suitable for adults given the sloping roof. Our kids had a ball though as they had their own area all to themselves. The free beach chairs and umbrella were lovely to enjoy the beach and watch the kids swim. I even managed to read my book which felt luxurious!!We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Thank you for sharing your vacation home with us!

About the host

Hosted by Suzanne Hardison

Host profile image

We are Barry and Suzanne Hardison, and we are thrilled to have an oceanfront vacation condo in Destin! For 5 years, we owned and rented a 1-bedroom condo through VRBO across the street from the beach. We feel blessed to have this larger, beach-side home, which accommodates more family and allows us to consider our young adult children's desire to bring friends to the beach.

Our family looks forward to any time in Destin. The sound of the waves and the beautiful white sand are so enticing. In fact, when younger, our children braved the winter waters of the Gulf! There's never a bad day at the beach!

Why they chose this property

Crystal Villas is in the perfect location. In our opinion, it is on the "quiet end" of Scenic Highway 98. This smaller, three story complex is in a prime location to the beach, shopping, and restaurants. You can be as busy or relaxed as you want in the convenient condo.

What makes this property unique

The sense of calm and relaxation our family experiences at the beach is priceless. Our young adult children love to swim in the ocean and pool, and we always enjoy our morning runs as a family on the walking/bike path. Window shopping and eating fresh seafood top our list of "must-do" excursions away from the beach. It is always a blessing to be here.
