Family Vacation

We had a wonderful week at this vacation home! It was clean, roomy, comfy beds, and beautifully decorated. Close to the beach, lots to do in area, and host was quick to answer our questions. I was glad I got the pool heated as it was mostly a gloomy week so we spent a lot of time in the pool.

A week in Paradise

Destiny Awaits is a wonderful property. It has a beautiful pool and backyard space, but is also just a short 3 minute walk to the beach. The home offers tons of space and a great first floor kitchen/living room for all to enjoy.

Great family vacation

Everything about the house was great. Plenty of space to stretch out, short walk to the beach. Convenient to shopping and activities if you don’t want to hit the beach. Just a few normal wear and tear items. Definitely recommend this place for your next visit to Destin. Thanks Bob, for always being very responsive when I needed to reach.

Great for our family

This house worked well for our group with the number of beds and baths; two w/d; extra refrigerators and coffeemakers. Having the pool, fire pit and golf cart was great. Location was very convenient. The host was responsive to questions. The title of the property needs to be changed as it is past ‘Brand New’, but it was clean except for the grill.

Fall Break

The house was wonderful and so much room!! Location to beach was a very, very short walk. The golf cart(6 passenger) was an added bonus My suggestion would be stemless wine glasses as the stemmed one do not fit on topin dishwasher and also some plastic glasses to take out to the pool.

Amazing!

Absolutely beautiful so close to the beach wonderfully warm pool and excellent response. We stayed when temps dipped to 20s we had a pipe break owner had it fixed with in a half hour we were without no water. Extremely happy with everything. I would highly recommend booking this home. We had 11 adults and 3 kids we had plenty of room for everyone. Large spacious home. Highly recommend!!

Everything As Advertised

First, it is a great location. 500 feet to the beach. The house was very clean and everything was in order. Beds were quite comfortable. We slept well which is important to us. Pool was nice. We enjoyed an evening by the firepit even though as expected, daytime temps were hot. We would stay here again and again. Destiny Awaits 🙂

Happy Place

We have been baiting this area for 9 years, and drive 18+ hrs to reach this destination. This year was a bit different for us - we not only travelled with our friends, but we brought the grandparents. Throughout our trip there, I kept saying, I cannot wait to get there - it is my happy place. We walked into the home and there was the sign Happy Place. The home did not disappoint. A convenient location, beautiful rooms, amazing pool, and a host who was responsive. We will definitely be back!

Amazing family beach house!

This house was absolutely as great as you see in the posting, maybe even better! There were enough beds, and bathrooms and living areas for our extended family to stay comfortably. The pool is awesome and the backyard was great for corn hole. We enjoyed the fire pit and really everything about this home. The golf cart definitely received a lot of use! The walk to the beach is short and easy. I would highly recommend this for a large family or group of friends. Check-in was easy and communication prior to our stay was top-notch. This is a beautiful area of Destin, close to restaurants shopping and everything you need.

Perfect Fit

We stayed in Crystal Beach in February 2024! There were 4 couples and we had an amazing stay! The house was beautiful! Plenty of room for everyone. Loved the laundry on the top 2 floors and the fridges on each floor. Kitchen is well stocked. Could possibly use a few more bath towels/washcloths if you don't do laundry daily. Owner did not skimp on anything! We did heat the pool and it was nice and warm. Plenty to do nearby for everyone! Would absolutely rent again!

Nice home, great location!

Beautiful spacious home with just a short walk to the beach. This is a family Beach area and we didn't always enjoy some of the loud music from the neighbors but at least it was short-lived and you can't pick your neighbors! The golf cart came in handy with trips to the stores and a few restaurants. Both adults and children enjoyed the pool, glad we asked for it to be heated. Our host, Bob was very responsive to any small issues we encountered. A bit pricey but if you can afford it, we highly recommend it.

Beautiful house!!!!!

The comments online underestimate how beautiful this place is. All three floors accommodate a family with mini fridge, coffee pot and washer and dryer. All rooms have a tv. All of the bedrooms have comfortable beds. Most bedrooms have their own bathrooms. The host responds immediately to any questions. The location is in a great neighborhood and less than a five minute walk to the ocean. The pool is beautiful with all of the amenities for a couple of families. I can not rate this place high enough. We all loved it.

Great location!!!

Great location. Only complaint we had is if owner wants renter to wash towels, dishes before leaving then they should supply at least 1 Tide pod and 1 dishwasher pod to do that. Should not be up to renter to supply that. Same with toilet paper. There should always be a full roll in each bathroom at the beginning of the stay. Not what is left from the last renter which might only have 5 squares of toilet paper. Renters are paying good money to rent home.

What a great property!

This place was awesome! Where do we begin. We texted Bob when we were an hour away and he let us check in 3 hours early! We have a family of 9 and this house delivered big time! All the rooms are spacious and the bathrooms were big, plentiful with huge showers. The washer and dryers on the 2nd and 3rd floors were a game changer I shouldn’t have packed so many clothes. The kitchen and island were big and any appliances you need were available to use. We did breakfast every morning and enjoyed the large dining room table where we ate family style. We loved the heated pool and backyard area too! Golf cart tires were low so we contacted service and it was taken care of in just an hour. We texted Bob about the heat in the pool and he had someone out same night to crank up the heat for us. I would highly recommend this place and will definitely be back one day. The golf cart was a great touch because you could quickly take it to places like the beach, coffee shop, gas station, or a restaurant bar. The beach area is literally a 5 minute walk and this property has beach chairs, boogie boards and other beach equipment to take down to the beach with you. Thanks Bob!
