The property was very clean and organized with everything you could need.
5 minute walk to the beach!
Beautiful house in a wonderful neighborhood!
Would definitely stay there again and recommend to everyone.
This was the perfect home for me &my husband, our two kids, and my parents. The house is a short five minute walk from the beach, and has a shared community pool.
The house was very clean and welcoming. The neighborhood was quiet and so close to the beach. The only downfall, was the dryer didn't work well. We had to keep redrying our laundry multiple times. Otherwise, everhthing else worked just fine. Would definitely recommend staying here, and we will be back!
I've wrestled with giving 4 or 5 stars, but I have to go with 4. The house is literally perfect with the exception of the back deck, which was dangerous to walk on and needs to be replaced asap. I'm fairly frustrated about it, because there was no heads up of any kind pointing to that, and I have an older father-in-law, and a 4 year old who could have fallen through a board. If the owners completely replace the back deck, add nice chairs (like the ones on the front porch), get rid of the plastic chairs and the crummy table...and add edison lights, some aesthetics to really make it nice (maybe flower box, big seating area with gas firepit or something) --- we will book this house 2-3 times per year every year. Without those things, we would probably poke around and look for another house to stay at, and I would be disappointed in doing so because literally everything else is absolutely fantastic.
Our family loved our stay at Crew Rest! The space was clean, bright, and exactly as pictured. Loved how we were so close to the beach as well as shopping. The owners were responsive and the home had many thoughtful touches. We’d definitely stay again.
Crew Rest was home away from home for us. The moment we walked in, it was beautiful and so clean and refreshing. The decor and added upgrades were very well done. I loved the tiled floors, the updated kitchen and bathrooms, and the added hints of home (new lighting fixtures, wainscoting, shiplap, etc). The decor was simple, yet stunning. Even a washer and dryer (I LOVE returning home from vacation with all the laundry already done!!). It felt like home right away. The beds were so comfortable and my kids are asking for the mattress foam toppers already! The high speed internet kept everyone entertained and Netflix was a nice touch! And surprisingly the Adirondack chairs on the front porch were from a tiny little country store in our backyard back home - even more of a feeling of home!! The location of Crew Rest was perfect. We walked daily to and from the beach and to and from the pool. We rode bikes throughout the area and had a day trip bike route along 30A. The security of the garage gave us peace of mind for storing our bikes. The restaurants and retail shopping surrounds you at Crew Rest, but it is so quiet and quaint that you don’t even realize you are right in the heart of Destin yet in a quiet, peaceful subdivision. And the boat dock for our Crab Island adventure was only a 10 minute drive away. My husband and I were strategizing a similar bungalow purchase by day 2!! The only improvement I can think of would be use of the golf cart (we would have been willing to sanitize it top to bottom after use!). It would have made getting around even more convenient than lugging everything back and forth for a family of 5. Truly a great place to stay with so many conveniences of home. We would definitely stay again! Maybe bring cornhole boards for the long backyard next time!
I'm not one to leave very many reviews but I felt like I had to on this one. We were extremely pleased on the overall quality of this rental. It is in a prime location between beach access and access to all shopping and eating. I've already told family and friends about this house. Only thing I would change next time would be finding out about having access to the golf cart that was in the garage.
Had a fantastic stay!! Check-in was smooth and easy! Property was spotless upon arrival! Location is great, very quick walk to the beach! Great for our family of 6! Will definitely stay again!
This property was everything described in the listing and more! It was a great house for our long weekend away. The house was spotless upon arrival and the check in process was very simple. My kids really enjoyed the crew lounge. The kitchen was fully stocked with cooking utensils which made for making meals a breeze. We will definitely be back to this property!
"Crew Rest" is a cute, little bungalow in a nice neighborhood. The decor is very nice just like the photos show. The beach is a couple of blocks away--not too bad of a walk--easy access to shopping and Hwy 98. Overall, we very much enjoyed our stay and would return to "Crew Rest."
The property delivered what was advertised. We were impressed with the quality and newness of the property. It’s very convenient only being blocks from the beach and the golfcart was useful to get around- our kids thought that was really fun!

When I walked in the door of this house, I immediately knew that I chose the right home for our family when I saw that beautiful, big silver propeller prop hanging on the wall. It added a sense of character that was carried on throughout the home. Each room has its own beautifully unique accent wall which brings such personality to the space. There is even an extra "kids" room located right off the living room. This proved to be one of the best features of the home because the kids had their own space to retreat to and play while the "grownups" enjoyed conversations without the constant interruptions. We will most definitely stay in this cozy "home away from home" next year!
