Perfect beach getaway!

We booked this condo last minute for a family getaway with my mom and sisters. The location was fabulous, the beach view was amazing, loved the layout for our group, enjoyed the daily beach service, and the condo was perfectly furnished to make our group really comfortable. Plenty of silverware and nice cookware. We sat out on the balcony every morning and ate dinner out there in the evening. We didn’t wanna leave. We’ve been coming to Destin for the last 20 years and I think this might be our favorite condo yet! We will definitely try to stay here again. Thanks so much!

Have stayed in Crystal Sand over a dozen times and it does not disappoint. Smaller complex and easy beach access makes it perfect. This unit was quite nice and very clean.

We loved the location! The condo was clean and nicely furnished. The only negative we have to say is with the master bedroom mattress. It was very uncomfortable. A nice condo deserves a nice mattress.

A very nice condo on a great beach

Excellent customer service from the management company. They were accommodating and prompt. The condo was very clean and nice. AC works great and the unit is quiet. Crystal beach is beautiful- could be the best in Destin. Not a criticism but guidance for those who stay- bring your own spices, olive oil, salt and pepper, coffee filters. Kitchen is well equipped but not stocked. Excellent stay overall.
