Coastal Fantasea is set along the quaintly named streets that encompass glorious Crystal Beach! Upon entering your foyer, your splendid formal dining room awaits your gourmet meal with sophistication and refined elegance.
Down the hall leads to the living area with a large comfy sectional sofa, a separate casual dining area, and a handy kitchen bar. Your gaze will be drawn to the outdoor living area through floor-to-ceiling windows and glass French doors. Check out the pool!
Your backyard oasis is a sizable romper area to delight kids and adults alike. Loungers for the sunbathers in your group, a benched picnic table for the snackers, and a gas bar-b-que grill for your grill masters will keep the action going through your coastal fantasea!

Loved the location and the property. Definitely at the top of our list.

Checking in was super convenient. I was sent an email with all of the information for door codes, Wi-Fi, rules, checking out procedures, that i screenshot and sent to all of our guest so everyone was on the same page. There was a total of 17 of us, we were more than comfortable. The kitchen was stocked with everything we needed to cook (pots, pan, griddle, crockpot, cooking utensils, coffee pot). They had beach chairs available to use. The pool area had room for all of us to sit and hang out. The walk to the beach took less than 5 minutes.

Notargiacomo Family Vacation 2023
July 28, 2023
My wife and I reserve the “Coastal Fantasea” as a vacation home for our family of 5. We were excited as we were receiving the emails with documents to finalize the reservation. We had reserved from August 5 – August 10, 2023.
Over the next few days, we receive several emails with confirmation of our reservation, payment processing confirmation, and check in instructions.
August 3, 2023
We discussed as a family, staying in Destin for 2 extra nights... the same home we reserved “Coastal Fantasea” was still available for 2 more nights after our original reservation and we had not been on a vacation in 2 years. We had saved for this trip and we know that this may be one of our last family vacations as we have older high schoolers....so we decided to stay the extra nights even though we have never been to the area or seen the home we were staying in. Our reservation is now for August 5 – August 12, 2023.
We now receive change of reservation email and new codes for the doors.
August 5, 2023
We drive to Destin, FL and arrive a few minutes before the scheduled check-in time. We call to see if we can check-in those few minutes early as we were driving in a terrible thunderstorm. Thankfully, the home was ready and available.
As we get inside, get our bags to our rooms, and get the groceries put away and generally get settled, we notice the house isn’t that ‘clean’. The was a dead cockroach on the dining room floor, the floors are gritty,
2.0
The overall property was not that clean, wads of hair and dirt in the guest house. There was trash left from previous renters under multiple bed edges. The pool step was broken and never addressed. Upon arrival the pool was dirty and was very cloudy by the time the pool guy showed during the week. Location is great but that is about it.
2.0
Pool was not heated when we arrived; mold on doors and outdoor furniture; peeling paint on most cabinets; rotted deck board; security system alarm hanging off wall; uncollected garbage across the street; there were only a few rugs and the one on the back deck was filthy and tattered; no kitchen towels or cooking mitts.

Let me start by saying the location of the property was excellent. Close enough to the beach and just off coastal 98(the beach road). The property management team were very helpful and easy to deal with. With that being said the property itself left something to be desired. It seems to be an older property as it was “well used” and could use some touch ups. The provided dishes, especially the pots and pans were not clean and we had to scrape them of dried on food.

Grandparents had peace in their separate cottage. Kids and grandkids had plenty of room to stretch out and have a space to play games, do crafts and cook great meals. The pool and back yard are beautiful with trees and beautiful plants. There are plenty of lounge chairs to sun in. The beach is a short 2 block walk on a sidewalk, so very easy for little legs on grandkids. Everything worked and when anything went wrong, the response was quick. Would definitely book this again with the beautiful waters of the Gulf so close.

We really enjoyed our stay at this house. The house is only a few minutes walk to the Shirah Beach Public Beach Access. We went down every morning around 8am and set up our beach stuff so we were always right by the ocean. We usually got down to the beach at 10am and nobody moved our stuff. The pool was very nice and very clean. The house was very clean when we arrived and comfortable to stay in. Loved the short walk to the beach access. It is very close to shops and grocery stores. We will be back next year.

We had a fantastic time. The house was perfectFor our extended family. The pool is a must have for the kids. We were able to walk to the beach for the beautiful sunsets. The only disappointment was that the beaches on either side of the very narrow access point are private so to really spend the day at the beach you do have to drive to the state park. It’s a very short drive and the beach is gorgeous. We just found the roping off of the beach obnoxious. Maybe it’s common in Florida but we had never seen anything like this before. The management company is amazing. Before our arrival Elizabeth was available via email for all of our many questions. She was prompt with her responses and so so patient with me. While we were there we were visited twice by maintenance to fill a propane tank and adjust the temperature of the pool water. They were all so quick and helpful and kind! We rent houses with this group of families at least once a year and we have never had a more helpful group of people managing the property. Thank you!

Very enjoyable stay. Property was as listed.

We really enjoyed our trip. Plenty of room for our family and loved having additional accommodations (single-level house) for our grandparents! Definitely invest in groceries as there were not a lot of incidentals left by others! Kids loved the loft. Pool was super warm and lovely! Walk to the beach was easy (but I can imagine it gets packed during the summer). Highly recommend!

The house was beautiful and met all our needs. Very spacious and great location to the beach. Loved every minute. Property manager had called the day we arrived as they needed someone to look at the house, we didn’t mind but appreciated the heads up. Highly recommend!

The house was great! Owner was very accommodating and easy to get into touch with. House was updated and well stocked. It was very comfortable. There was a huge pile of chairs, toys, floats and a wagon that had been left behind by previous people. Not all in good condition but handy to have. Really enjoyed our stay, beach is a short walk away although closest beach access is tiny and no facilities. Next access was just 2 more blocks. Neighborhood is very cute. Minor complaints was that the oven is not working properly, as the buttons to set the temperature are not working. So it turns on but you can not adjust temperature. Stovetop was fine. Also refrigerator does not get cold enough. Very minor things and would stay here again.

First of all let me just say, I wish my family and I could move in here. This home exceeded our expectations and was the perfect place to spend a long weekend. My now husband and I had a small, intimate wedding ceremony on the beach and this home was a place where our whole family was able to stay comfortably before and after the ceremony. The home has everything you could think of that you'd need while here. The public beach access was a quick 3 minute walk away and the neighborhood made us feel very safe. It was quiet in the evenings, which we appreciated. The whole house was very clean and you can see the personal touches all over the home from the beach towels in the closet to the pool toys, tons of beach chairs and beach wagons on the patio. So much room for a family to spread out!! My favorite part of this house is the carriage/guest house in the backyard. We were able to stay in the smaller house with our 2 children and it was nice to have a space just for ourselves. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and will absolutely stay here again if/when we return to Destin. Rob was so easy to communicate with and get ahold of and made the whole stay such a breeze. Thank you so much!!

We highly recommend this location. The house was great and the owners were even better. The grill died and a brand new one was delivered and set up the next morning. They made sure we had everything we could need and were so responsive. Worth every penny.
