INSIDE THE HOME
Step inside from the covered front porch and make yourself at home in the inviting open living and dining area of this beautiful home. You can relax on the comfortable new sofa and side chairs and enjoy your favorite programs on the large Smart TV with HD Cable & Netflix included. A desk and chair provide a spot for your laptop, should you need to check in at work or answer emails during your stay. Of course, Free WIFI is included. Enjoy your meals or game nights at the beautiful wood dining table with chairs and bench seating for 8-10.

CUSTOM KITCHEN
You’ll enjoy making your favorite meals in this newly renovated custom kitchen featuring new coastal cabinets, quartz countertops and stainless steel appliances. It offers plenty of prep and storage space, including an island. You’ll find most everything you’ll need here including pots, pans, dishes, glasses and silverware, as well as a drip coffee maker, blender and toaster. We also supply many “extras” such as cleaning products, trash bags, aluminum foil, and plastic wrap.

For your convenience, we have a front-loading washer and dryer in the home’s walk-in laundry room, as well as an iron and ironing board.

You can relax in the lounge chairs in the sun and enjoy meals or drinks at the dining table which seats 6 on the covered patio overlooking the pool. For outdoor cooking, you’ll find a gas grill. And for your children’s safety, there are alarms on the doors leading to the pool from the main house.

For even more outdoor fun, you can challenge each other to a game of Bocce on the private, custom court. It’s an easy game for all ages - we provide the rules, in case you’re unfamiliar.

This home is NOT pet friendly.

PERFECT BEACH LOCATION
The Shores at Crystal Beach public beach access point is just a short walk to the end of the block - about 175 yards (4-6 minutes.) This access point has a pavilion, picnic tables, public restrooms, showers and limited parking. We provide a beach cart with beach chairs and umbrella, so you can roll your gear to the beach with ease.

This home is in the heart of Crystal Beach, a quiet, walkable neighborhood with white picket fences and easy access to shopping, restaurants and activities in Destin. Destin Commons, a beautiful upscale shopping and entertainment center, is less than a half-mile away. It features over 75 shops and restaurants, including Bass Pro Shop, World of Beer, Uncle Buck's Fish Bowl & Grill, AMC Theater with IMAX and much more. Local favorite, Camille’s, is just down the street, and The Crab Trap is about a mile east. You can bicycle, scooter, Jet ski and go parasailing all within walking distance. The Silver Sands Outlet mall is not far for those who enjoy “retail therapy”!

OFF-STREET PARKING
The City of Destin has recently adopted very strict parking regulations. You may park up to 3 vehicles at this home, depending on size. You cannot park on the grass, over the sidewalk, on the street or in the right-of-way. If you have a large truck, van or SUV, there may not be enough space to legally park 3 vehicles at this home.
