About this property

Gulf Front, Right on the Beach! Complimentary Beach Service! Newly Remodeled!

You will love this newly renovated, gulf-front condo located on the beautiful white sands of Crystal Beach. You can enjoy the Gulf of Mexico's view and sounds from the third-floor balcony. You can stroll the lovely beach or bike ride, walk, or jog along the paved sidewalks/bike trails of Scenic Gulf Drive. This well-appointed condo has 2 king-size beds (one is in the master and one in the second-story loft) and another bedroom with two twin daybeds with trundles, and 2 full bathrooms. Our maximum occupancy is 8. Although, the home is most comfortable for parties of 6 or less.

A lovely spring break!

Our week long stay at this lovely condo was thoroughly enjoyed by us, our adult kids and two grandsons. They loved having the loft as their private family space. The boys especially loved the TV in the bedroom, though they never once turned it on! The condo is very nicely appointed with everything you could possibly want or need. The decor is lovely and the view from the balcony was amazing - from seeing the lifeguards doing their daily drills to dolphin watching! The beach service was much appreciated and the kids made fast friends with others on vacation. We didn’t venture out into Destin very much as we were so comfortable in this condo. Would love to return!

Birthday weekend

This property had an amazing beach view , it was very clean - the owners were excellent with communication which made an easy check In progress— you do have 4 flights of stairs not too bad really -the only strange thing was the bedroom upstairs you have to walk through bathroom upstairs to get to bedroom not a deal breaker at all - would definitely recommend and stay at this beautiful condo / plenty of supplies in the lovely kitchen!!

Crystal Villa Vacay

Condo is very nice. Clean with modern amenities. We loved the touchless kitchen faucet. Host was very friendly and answered questions promptly. The third floor balcony view is amazing. Condo is right on the beach. The beach chairs and umbrella that were included really made spending time at the beach a wonderful experience. The location is great for getting away from the crowds but close enough to food or shopping. This is a great place to stay on your vacation!

About the host

Hosted by Suzanne Hardison

Host profile image
We are Barry and Suzanne Hardison and we are thrilled to have a oceanfront vacation condo in Destin! For 5 years, we owned and rented through VRBO a 1 bedroom condo 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 teenagers' 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, our children have even braved the winter waters of the Gulf! There's never a bad day when you are 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 teenage 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.
