Destin Condo

Overall my stay was very nice. Wonderful location!! The condo was well kept, not perfect. Could use a deep clean. Communication with Vacasa was slow. Info about beach chairs was unclear. Vacation also said I could bring a small tent for the beach but that’s not true at this condo complex.

Great Family Vacation

A friend reccomended Crystal Sands and it didn't disappoint. We were on the first floor so it was beautiful to spend our mornings eating breakfast on the patio facing the beach then walk on to beach for the day. The place was clean and the amenities were convenient. (especially the washer and dryer)The beach was busy but not crowded. Restaurants and Crab Island boat tour was a short car ride away. We're already planning our next trip back!

Great first floor location!

Loved the first floor and being able to unload right into the condo, and the fact of being able to come in the patio door from the beach.

This was the most disappointing trip we have ever had. We have been staying here every time we are in Destin. The roach infestation was just too much for me . I did not sleep for the last three days. My husband killed bugs as big as mice The furniture was very worn with broken down springs. The sheets would not stay on the bed and worn out. I feel you owe me at least a 25% refund. Please respond I know you can do better than this. I have stayed in others that were well kept and nice. And never saw a bug .

Great service!

Everything was as advertised and clean. What's not to like about the sand at your doorstep? Last minute,(after checkout), we needed to add another night. Phone staff was extremely helpful in making that happen so I wouldn't be stranded! Thank you!

Overall nice place

Small issue with the bedsheets not fitting properly. Cleaning attendant was helpful but only after I got insistent that they find a proper solution. After that she was very helpful with the TV in both rooms. Appreciated that very much. Hallway bathroom needs some plumbing repairs attended to but it was nothing to disrupt our stay. Overall the place is an older building but has been maintained fairly well. We will stay there again.

Perfect location

This rental is actually through vacasa so be prepared to receive emails and texts from them instead of through the vrbo app. The condo itself was great with an amazing view. The listing stated there is a bathtub however, there is no bathtub. Just a shower. It’s a bit awkward to get to if you’re very tall like myself and my husband just due to it being shoved in a corner by the washer and dryer and being two doors. The neighborhood felt safe. Other visitors were less than pleasant but, that has nothing to do with the condo itself. Would stay here again.
