Crystal Sands 315A - Gulf Front, Heated Community Pool, Near Destin Commons!

Crystal Sands 315A -

Are you daydreaming of crystal sands and emerald waves? There’s no better place to book your beach vacation than the white sand beaches of Destin. Crystal Sands 315A is a lovely, two-story condo located in Destin’s popular Crystal Beach community. Its gulf-front location offers incredible views of the beach and convenient access to the sandy shores. The condo has a costal-inspired interior that boasts a bright living space, two bedrooms, and two baths. It can accommodate up to eight vacationers.

The first-floor living area is sunny and welcoming, with a high ceiling, white tile flooring, and two sliding glass doors facing the gulf. The living room features a dove-gray, queen-size sleeper sofa and two accent chairs that face a seafoam credenza and flatscreen TV. From here, visitors can enjoy the best of vacation entertainment—chatting with fellow vacationers, catching the big game on TV, or watching as the waves roll in through the wall of sliding glass doors. The doors open onto a furnished beachfront balcony, which was made for sipping a refreshing cocktail and relax in the summer breeze. The living room flows seamlessly into a dining room that features a large table with four chairs and a bench for seating. Extra seating is located at the adjacent kitchen bar. The kitchen includes spacious granite countertops and gray cabinetry.

The master suite is also on the first level. It has a king-size bed, cottage-style furnishings, chic coastal wall décor, and a TV. It has access to a full hall bath with a glass-walled shower. Ascend the open staircase to the second level, where you will find a guest bedroom, as well as an enclosed bonus loft. The enclosed lofted bonus room includes a king-size bed and colorful beach accents. It shares a bathroom with a guest bedroom that includes two twin-size beds.

A stay at Crystal Sands ensures guests have access to great vacation amenities. These include a pool, BBQ grills, a beachside picnic area, free seasonal beach service, and convenient beach access. Another benefit of this condo is its proximity to Destin activities and entertainment. Only a few minutes away, you will find the Destin Commons, an outdoor retail village with shops, restaurants, a kid’s outdoor play plaza, and a movie theater. Crystal Sands also sits between HarborWalk Village to the west and Sandestin’s Village of Baytowne Wharf to the east. At the fun and vibrant HarborWalk Village, Ocean Reef Resorts guests receive discounted rates for dolphin cruises and recreational activities. At the Village of Baytowne Wharf, visitors will love exploring the variety of shopping venues, restaurants, adventure zones, village activities, and seasonal concerts and events.

Great place to stay right on the beach!

The complex is well kept and the condo we rented was very nice. There are lots of restaurants within a short drive. We enjoy trying new restaurants. We went out early every morning to enjoy the sunrise and every evening to walk on the beach and look for crabs. We had a great time!

Million dollar view

Property was very warm and inviting, quiet and million dollar view off the balcony. Spotless, I would come back in a second. Loved our stay, wouldn’t stay any where else.

Location is Great

This unit needs an update on the living room furniture. Can't even describe the chairs. We brought in the outdoor chairs from the balcony to sit in. The couch also needs replaced. We cleaned off the handrail going upstairs which appeared to not have been cleaned for a while. Bed was good and bathroom nice. Kitchen had been updated. Yes, we were there for the beach and it did not disappoint, but at some time you need to go inside. Would not stay in this unit again.

Nice place overall

The location was convenient to everything in Destin with just a short drive. The beach service was great with the chair and umbrella set ups. The beach access was private and was much better than the adjacent crowded beaches. On the downside - the pool was a dissapointment. It's located on the parking lot side of the condo and looked like it needed some attention with cracking, etc. The unit was nice - balcony sliding door would not lock, the living room ceiling fan would not turn off and the microwave was a challenge to make it work properly. These were fairly minor issues and we would definitely recommend the property to others.

Perfect!

The place was better than pictured! Access to the beach was easy and the chair/umbrella service was a big plus. The location was a short driving distance to many good restaurants and shopping. Enjoyed my morning coffee on the balcony with the ocean view. I would certainly go here again.

For the Most Part. A great Stay.

For the most part it was a good rental. Overall Clean. Personally not worth $3000 for a week. Several Cometic Fawls. One Balcony Door is BROKE and won’t Open! The Tub upstairs the handle is loose or something. I turned the water on for my son. And he started screaming and it BURNING HOT. I thought he had just messed with the handle at first but when it happen to me. It moves to hot on its own! The Couch had Stains. The Bottom bedrooms fan doesn’t flow air good. SO HUMID! The thermostat is mandated to stay on 70. It got very hot in the rental during the day and night at times. At 70 I couldn’t imagine staying there in the summer! The pool is not HEATED and the lock doesn’t not work. Not just us but everyone was having problems getting in it. For the most it was a good rental. And I wouldn’t mind the $3000 again if these were fixed. It just seems like a money for somewhere to have several things that needs to be fixed, renovation or updated.

Beautiful property in great location!

Great neighborhood, clean property, easy communication! Simple maintenance issue reported thru app & was handled the very next morning. Condo is as pictured in listing. Beautiful! Wish the master bedroom bed was more comfortable. The mattress is very stiff but I still slept well enough. I would definitely stay here again & will recommend to friends!

Perfect trip!

We had a wonderful trip! Condo and location were perfect! We initially had 6 people going, but ended up just 3 of us. Everything was good except I would like to mention the third bedroom is really for children. It is in the sloped roof and adjoined to upstairs bathroom and bedroom.

Amazing location

Perfect location, close to lots of activities for the young adults and the granddaughter. Amazing beach front! Perfect for goofing off in the water or just hanging on the beach. Everyone was very nice around us, we had no problems with our stay at all. The condo was nice and clean. The only thing we would say is that the master bed needs replaced. I know we are a bit picky with our bed, but it is really uncomfortable and squeaks ever move you make! Loudly! Main bathroom shower is pretty low but that is not a big deal. Everything else is beautiful and the beach decor was very cute. We would stay again. ( Definitely if the master bed was changed.) 😄 I would recommend this condo for anyone from a couple to a small family. It is great!
