Villages of Crystal Beach is an exclusive, gated community only a few blocks from the beautiful blue waters and white sandy beaches of Destin. You can make the walk on foot or hop on the free seasonal trolley service (Memorial Day through Labor Day): they will even pick you up at the house and drop you off right at the beach! The pool area at Villages of Crystal Beach is a vacation must! The lagoon style zero entry pool is 30,000 square feet of gorgeous, sparkling clear water. There is a spa, tropical landscaping, and plenty of seating areas. It also has surround sound, a flat screen TV, and a grilling area to help you relax and unwind.

Please note that there are parking restrictions within the Villages of Crystal Beach. There are two parking spaces available in the driveway of the home with an overflow lot for one additional vehicle. Trailers, RV's, boats, golf carts, and motorcycles are not allowed within the community gates; alternate parking arrangements will need to be made for these items. 

Area Attractions: 

There are wonderful shops and restaurants close by and great attractions such as golf courses, Big Kahuna's Water and Adventure Park, boating, fishing, and watersports!

Close by is Destin Commons, a beautifully landscaped, pedestrian-friendly area and a great family venue where children will love to play in the interactive water fountains. Also, for the younger guests, a nautically/pirate themed outdoor playground features a 1,750 square foot soft play area with various creatures from the sea, slides, and a treasure chest!  Destin Commons also has a mini train for the kids. Destin Commons features over 75 shops and restaurants, including Godiva Chocolates, AMC Movie Theaters and Bass Pro Shop.

If you are near Miramar Beach, the snorkelers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Dolphin Reef, deployed in 2017.  Located just 685 feet straight out from the Miramar Regional Public Beach access (by Pompano Joe's), it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Dolphin Reef is at a depth of 12-20 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

"Work getaway - The property was amazing. My group of friends had an exceptional time. We are already planning our return trip. The beach was in a 5 minute walking distance. The pool was so refreshing. We met some neighbors like Mr. David and his wife and children and we all hung out together. The property had more than enough space for us to vacation. The view of the sunset and sunrise was breath taking. An overall amazing time. Thank you"

"Great stay, location and so much more! - This place was absolutely amazing! So much more than what we expected and would definitely recommend to anyone coming to Destin! It was our first trip here as a family and we felt very much at home. Plenty of space, safe fully stocked with household amenities and close enough to the ocean to hear waves crashing on the beach ❤️ We would have loved to have had the pool heated, but the hot tub was an excellent option throughout the week and after a long day. Very relaxing. Will come back!"

"Cousins Trip 2022 - We had a total of 15 and we had a blast. All cousins had more than enough room. The house was clean and made us feel at home. So close to the beach and right around the corner from the pool. Beds were comfortable and we had enough space outside for 3 suv's. The perfect beach house for the summer."

"2 week stay with 16 guests - We stayed at this property over Christmas and New Years and enjoyed it. The neighborhood is lovely, we all enjoyed the pool and even went to the beach. The walk to the beach was fine for the adults but a bit long for the kids. Thankfully the beach shuttle was available most of the time. The house was comfortable and functional. Nice furniture and decor. The matresses are on the firm side. The only problem we encountered was having one less bed than listed on the VRBO listing (no futon bed in 3rd floor queen room). I contacted the property manager and they offered an air mattress which we eneded up using. So be aware that this unit only sleeps 15 on beds, the 16th will be on an air mattress. The kitchen was fully functional for our group of 16, just a little crowded. Plenty of plates, cups, silverware, etc. Nice non-stick frying pans. I might even get some like them for my home. If you plan to cook a lot bring your own knives. We stayed for a few weeks, so we did some cleaning as the floors get very sandy. Broom and vacuum are provided. Having a washer/dryer in the house was very helpful!"

"Great location - Overall our stay here was amazing! Walk to the beach was not that bad. Wish the shower head in the master bedroom was better but other than that I don’t seem to find anything bad with this house."

"Great beach trip - We met family at Skips Corner and we had a blast. I loved the pool and for my older kids walking to the beach wasn’t a big deal. I’m loved that they had a shuttle for the little kids and Grandma. The o lot thing negative I could say about this house is that it doesn’t have an outside shower. So it was hard to get all the sand off you you before you came in. The shower at the beach is super crowded and it’s hard to really get clean. Other than that it was fanatastic."
