Crystal Sands 107a - Gulf Front, Remodeled, Free Beach Service, Heated Pool

Loved this condo! We usually get a house a few blocks inland but figured we’d try this property right on the beach and we absolutely loved it. The condo was clean, well set up, and in a great location. My wife is recovering from a back injury so being on the ground floor and literally steps from the beach worked out perfect. We had me, my wife and 2 teenagers, we fit very comfortably… you can fit 6 people but two would have to sleep on a pullout couch/bed. The private beach is the only way to go in my opinon… no fighting for spots or crowded small public beach’s. We had room to all spread out, tan, and play volleyball/football. My ONLY complaint is that I wish the beach service company would leave the chairs and umbrellas out a little later… even an hour more would be great (they currently pick everything up at 5pm on the dot). The beach service guys did a great job of keeping our private beach private, a few non residents tried to set up tents & chairs but were quickly asked to leave. Just make sure to read all the rules about what you can and cannot set up on the beach as a resident… the emails from the rental company were very clear on the rules but some renters didn’t seem to read them at all and became very upset when they were told they could not set up personal umbrellas or tents… the beach service guys handled it professionally even while getting yelled at. Just read the rules people!

We had a great trip on the 1st floor with perfect views and the patio furniture was very comfortable. A great place to sit and watch the waves. We also enjoyed the included beach service. One of the most relaxing trips we have taken.

Property as listed. Truly gorgeous view. Beach is beautiful. Unit 107A is clean, comfortable and quiet during our stay. Pretty much has everything you need. Bed is great. Best part is you are a very very short walk down to sand right out your patio door. Would definitely stay again.

Perfect location. Clean. Well kept property grounds. Excellent communication from management. This was our 2nd time staying in this unit. We can’t wait to book again!

Fantastic view. Condo very close to the beach entrance and the pool.Bed is very comfortable and bathrooms had usual hotel amenities.

Third time staying at this Crystal Sands location and have stayed in a different unit each stay. Unit 107a is excellent, and is as advertised, and would highly recommend. For a couple, this condo is perfect. Location is great for beach views and access, as well as walking, biking,and stopping by Camille's for a tasty beverage in the afternoon.

Beautiful view. Convenient parking. Contacted the host and was answered in timely manner and problem solved right away. Love Crystal Sands for view. The patio furniture comfortable and relaxing. Loved being on ground floor. And most beautiful sunsets. Will definitely on my favorite places to stay

As someone else had mentioned, LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION! The unit is right outside the walkway down to the sand. Not having to walk blocks to the beach with a wagon full of stuff in tow was worth every penny for us! We loved the chair/umbrella service that was set every day ready to go! Were there things that could be improved? Yes, but for the location, that was a very minor issue. We did go out and purchase salt/pepper, as well as an oven mitt and hot pads (which we left there in hopes for others to use). The unit had everything else that we needed regarding kitchen equipment/pots and pans. We brought our own laundry detergent, hand pump soap, etc., and bathroom supplies but they did have some of that to get you started if needed. The king bed wasn’t the best mattress we’ve ever slept on, but every person is different in what they need regarding sleep and we are aware of that. The pool seems to be newer and was very nice and warm for evening swims. The host replied to our concerns usually within a couple of hours and was willing to address any questions or concerns. Overall, we loved our visit and hope to return next year to this beach!

Another fabulous vacation at Crystal Sands 107A! The condo is perfectly located. We’ll be back next year!

We sat on the beach and read. Very relaxing.

Perfect location with all that we needed. Stepped straight out on the beautiful white sand. Private beach. Not crowded. Had an excellent stay.

We love Crystal Sands and this stay was wonderful. The property is wonderfully located and right on the beach. The patio furniture is not as pictured though. There is a glider that comfortably seats two and a rocking chair. I wish the four higher chairs that were pictured were actually the ones at the property. This would have been better for viewing the ocean over the grass and everyone having a seat to sit.

We loved our condo. Location, location, location! The beach is beautiful and our chairs and umbrella set up was great. Communication with the hospitality service outstanding. The new updates and walk-in shower greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend staying here again.

It was the dirtiest place i've ever stayed. I left early because i woke up in the middle of the night with a cockroach on my back. Never returning here ever again!

Property was clean. Property management was outstanding from the day I made our reservation and throughout the stay. A small problem with a pot that I let property management know and right away, a new pot was delivered. LOCATION! LOCATION! LOCATION! The location was ideal. Out the back door, we were on the bottom level and closest to the steps to hit the beach. Out the front door, steps away to the pool. Noise at night was minimal. Daily chair and umbrella were perfect! We will definitely be back.

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We've stayed in this exact unit 4 times - we cannot get enough. The location is perfect; the view is perfect; the condo is comfortable; the property mgmt team is a breeze to work with. We are already planning our next trip!

This is our second stay at this condo. We love the walkout on beach level, close parking, and the condo is great too. Can’t wait to come back!

We love being in a first floor condo and walking straight out to the beach! The included beach service is the cherry on top. For the condo itself…it was spotlessly clean and fresh. The bed was very comfortable. We especially appreciated the walk in shower. The glider and rocker on the patio called to us more than the living room. Thumbs up to that choice!The kitchen was stocked with almost everything we needed. From staying in many vacation rentals we know that it’s feast or famine in the kitchens and we do understand that many owners/managers want nothing left. Not a complaint but an FYI for future guests…bring coffee filters or keurig pods, and salt and pepper to get you started if you plan on cooking in the condo. We would definitely book again.

Great location, great place to stay! The pool was under construction, but when it’s finished it will be great for people with younger kids! Highly recommend this condo for anyone looking to wake up and see the beach!! Beautiful!!

Excellent communication from owner, perfect location within Destin, and bonus complimentary beach service!

Great place and location! Had a lovely time and would love to stay here again!

Everything about the location and condo is EASY. First floor with close parking. Walk right out to the beach. No condo on one side helps with noise. The TV signal did not work most of the time. Seemed the WiFi was not strong enough Condo seemed damp and had a musty smell not sure if there was something not working with the humidifier. Would def stay here again

Great property location. Away from the commercialized areas of town. Loved the walk out beach access.

This was our second say and we could not love it more! When I think I about why we keep coming back I would say LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION! There is nothing better than opening the curtains in the morning and seeing the ocean just a few steps away. The neighborhood of Crystal Beach is so lovely. We love going on walks and exploring. And Camille's has become a favorite stop for coffee, a cocktail or sushi! Do yourself a favor... book this place!!!

Crystal Sands is our favorite place to stay. This unit did not disappoint. Updated, clean and steps to the beach. Thank you!
