A seasonal beach setup (MAR 1- OCT 31), as well as MANY other convenient items stocked in our pantry, refrigerator, and balcony closet are included in your rental!

Our condo provides one of the best values you can find on The Emerald Coast- just look at our reviews!
We are continually updating our condo with items to provide the most comfortable stay possible for our guests. Our entire unit has been painted in a light neutral grey-blue tone, and the carpet in all the bedrooms was changed to a matching grey-blue color.

Condo Unit 605 at The Inn at Crystal Beach is a 3 bdrm/2 bth, 1640 sq ft luxurious, upscale gulf front condo located on the 6th floor in the exclusive "center stack" at The Inn at Crystal Beach, one of the most desirable locations in Destin. Our condo has a large L Shaped balcony providing some of the best views that can be had in Destin. It can accommodate 8 comfortably and sleeps like a 4 bedroom unit- we have a King bed in the master bedroom, a King in the 2nd bedroom, a set of Twin XL beds in the 3rd bedroom, and a daybed/ trundle as another set of Twin beds in the den.
The Inn at Crystal Beach is a gulf front condominium complex on Scenic Highway 98 in Destin- it is one of the closest beachfront condo complexes to the Midbay Bridge. The "center stack" units are situated further south- they provide more space and also have larger L-shaped balconies with the most panoramic views of the Gulf of Mexico that can be found in Destin. Our condo is just to the left of the middle of the complex- close to the elevators and just a few steps away from the sugar-white sand beach. As the owner of this condo, my husband and I take great pride in our vacation home- I personally speak with all bookings prior to each stay to ensure that our condo is a good fit for your family. My name is Diane Speedling, and I would love to answer any questions you may have. As a Premier Partner, guests and owners have access to each other's phone numbers prior to booking- feel free to call me on my cell at 850-758-1181 anytime. We have enjoyed our condo so much throughout the years, and we hope you love it as much as we do! It is meticulously maintained and upgraded throughout every year to ensure our guests have the most comfortable stay possible.

Unit 605 is furnished with high-end appliances and comfortable, contemporary and modern furniture and comfortable beds. Light and brightly decorated, it is adorned with neutral colors and evokes the feel of the islands through beach accents, yet one also has a feeling reminiscent of a high end Art-Deco hotel in Miami. It is appointed with features that rival any luxury penthouse-- high thread count linens, My Pillow pillows (they're washable), designer coverlets, thick designer towels, customized closets, and 2 king beds (vs queens) are just a few things that separate it from the rest. Large screen Samsung Smart TVs and Cox Whole Home DVRs are found throughout our condo- an 85 inch QLED 4K in the Living room, and 65 inch QLED 4Ks in ALL the bedrooms- Master, Guest King, and Twin bedrooms, and daybed/trundle room. Our Smart TV Apps are preloaded with Amazon, NetFlix, MAX, and many more apps to keep you entertained in the evening. Our BluRay players (along with 100+ Blu Rays and DVD discs), X Box One S gaming system with Gamepass subscription, Cox Contour 2 Whole Home HD DVR System (preloaded with movies as well as space to record your own shows), and many family board games are sure to keep the entire family entertained during the rainy non-beachy days. The unit has upgraded high speed wireless internet (100 mbps), expanded cable with HBO, Encore and Epix movie channels, BluRay players with Streaming in all rooms, cordless phones, and I-Home/ I-pod docking stations, multiple (wired and wireless) charging stations and extra outlets in every room, all designed to make you feel welcome after a long day at the beach.
The living area has a sliding glass door that leads out to the large L-shaped balcony and the master bedroom does as well. The new leather sofa and 4 chairs provide a great area to gather around after a wonderful day at the beach- a perfect place to enjoy a movie on the 85 inch QLED 4K TV. The balcony has a beautiful set of white patio furniture- just right for watching the beautiful water at sunset with your favorite beverage. In the closet on the balcony we keep a revolving inventory of rafts, boogie boards, chairs, and other beach toys as a convenience for our guests, and many of our repeat guests house beach items there so they are waiting for them when they return. A beach set-up with 2 chairs and an umbrella is included with the rental (operates seasonally, Mar 1- Oct 31), however we often will have extra chairs in the closet that you are welcome to use.
The full sized kitchen new stainless steel appliances has everything you need for a short or long term stay. It is well stocked with utensils, appliances, and cookware (Instant pot, rice cooker, etc), as well as a washer and dryer. We have a traditional coffee pot as well as a Keurig K55 Coffee Maker. We keep the pantry and refrigerator well stocked with essential items as a convenience for our guests. Our dining room furniture seats 8 comfortably at the table, and has 4 more bar-stools at the counter.
The master bedroom has a plush Dream Bed with a 65 inch QLED 4K Samsung Smart TV, extended cable and movie channels as well as a BluRay player. You will have wonderful views to the east through the sliding glass door that leads to the balcony, and views of the gulf to the south through the windows. There is a customized walk-in closet with plenty of shelves and extra blankets/ pillows. The bathroom has ample light, mirrors, and counter space, with shampoo, conditioner, lotion, eye-makeup remover, etc left for our guests as a convenience, and a separate jetted Roman tub and shower. The second bedroom has a plush Hybrid bed with a 65 inch QLED 4K TV, cable with movie channels, a BluRay player and plenty of shelves and pillows/ blankets in the customized closet. The 3rd bedroom has a set of Twin XL Dream beds with designer coverlets and a customized closet as well as a 65 in QLED 4K TV with a BluRay player. The den is like a private alcove - the daybed and trundle are the perfect place to unwind watching TV on the 65 in QLED after a full day of fun in the sun.
Since 2006, we have been fortunate to have acquired a loyal following of fantastic repeat guests, and this has resulted in our having the highest occupancy rate at The Inn- we hope that one day you can be a repeat guest too! I personally inspect the unit on turnover days to ensure that our previous guests have taken great care of our place, and to make sure that housekeeping has done a perfect job for our future guests, as well as change the paper products left by them to a higher grade, etc. We value our guests and want to exceed their expectations!

We just got back to Tulsa and we loved our stay in Destin. The condo was nice, clean and had everything we needed. Communication was excellent and couldn’t have been better. Perfect location and the views and beach are just amazing. Also the chair and umbrella service was top notch. We will be back.
10.0 / 10.0
This rental was spectacular. I will say "ditto" to all the other reviews so that I can provide some other details about the condo and amenities. Diane was never more than a text away and she would reply within 5 minutes or less.
The description that was provided on Vrbo was spot on. It was very well outfitted with everything you needed for the entire stay, even if you wanted to cook entire meals. There were plenty of pool and beach supplies, laundry supplies, pots, pans, utensils, bath and beach towels, charges and charging locations for personal devices. The internet was fast and my grandson loved that he was able to log onto his XBOX account and occasional play some games.
It was clean and comfortable. The view is amazing. The outdoor balcony space was the best I have every had. The food at the onsite restaurant was very good and John graciously took care of all of our needs while at the beach (one umbrella and two chairs were included with the rental). The elevators were never over crowded. The longest we waited during the peak of check in was about a minute.
There was plenty of parking despite the superintendent telling us they were close to capacity. I have a full size pickup truck and had absolutely no issues parking in the garage or outside areas. The condo is less than 1 mile to grocery stores, dining, shopping, gas stations, AND ice cream (lookup "The Yard").
It is located in a well maintained and very safe community. Friendly people all around.

We’ve been staying at the Inn at Crystal Beach for 9 years in the same condo. We decided this year to change and I’m so glad that we did. Very spacious and clean. The room was stocked with lots of dishes and pots and pans. Even a pressure cooker. I would recommend this 3 bedroom condo. You will not be disappointed. Going to book again next year.

The condo was just a short walk away from the beach and we loved the balcony space and view. The beach was lovely and had a very pretty sunset view. The condo comfortably fit our family of six and was close to many things to do.

We LOVED our stay in Destin! The condo was perfect for our big family of 7. The fully stocked kitchen was amazing for cooking meals for our family (or re-purposing leftovers). The beach chairs and toys were an amazing plus along with all the games. The view was unbeatable and we even saw the dolphins swim by. We hope to be back!

We've stayed at this condo in August. We have been in other condos in the same area and this one by far has surpassed our highest expectations. Diane takes great care of the place. It is extremely clean and comfortable. It also has the a great view of the beach from the large balcony. We had a great time. Thank you, Diane!

Not much of a review gusher. Suffice to say that everything was as advertised and therefore as expected. Our family of five (2 adults and 3 kids under 12) enjoyed the unit, location and the stay overall. Beach service was great and convenient. Close proximity of the bar/restaurant downstairs, short drive to grocery, and shops / dining were advantageous as well. We stayed in a hotel/resort for one night/day before arriving to the unit to compare (similarly priced per night when including additional costs at the resort) and would choose the unit over the resort every time.

This condo was perfect for our family!! It had everything we needed in the unit. The beds were very comfortable and new living room furniture was very nice to relax on after a day at the beach. The balcony with comfortable lounging furniture is perfect for enjoying the phenomenal views of the white sand beach and the Gulf. We will definitely return to this unit. The owners were very helpful in preparing us for the perfect vacation.

We rented relatively last minute for a fall break getaway. Husband and I took our Senior daughter with 2 friends and our college boys met us there. It was absolutely perfect for our group! The balcony is everything! We sat out there at all hours - morning coffee with the sunrise, afternoon snack with the breeze off the ocean and evening with the sunset and glass of wine.
Check in was easy. Lots of carts to help schlep our stuff upstairs. Elevators were quick. We used the beach service with chairs and umbrella every day! Plus there were several extra chairs (and rafts, toys, boogie boards, balls, etc etc) to use in the balcony closet. The beds were all comfortable. Plenty of towels (including beach towels) and the water pressure/hot water was amazing! Kitchen had everything we needed. The location is ideal bc it’s off the beaten path enough but still close to everything! We will definitely hope to stay here again someday! I write A LOT of reviews and am known to be pretty honest bc I read the reviews others write before deciding on our own adventures……so read no further- this was truly a magical spot - don’t miss out!

Dream ocean view property!
Renting this property was the best choice. Property was very clean and equipped with everyone’s needs. Spacious, comfortable. Spectacular balcony with an even better view. The perfect spot for anyone looking to enjoy the beautiful Destin beach. I would definitely recommend this to anyone wishing to spend a vacation at the beach. Being that the beach was at arms length at all times I very much enjoyed staying here. Diane, the property’s owner was the best one i have ever interacted with. She was very welcoming, informative, helpful and quick to respond at all times. Thanks again for making this vacation a great experience. We will definitely come back to this property again.

Amazing condo and beach vacation
My family of 5, including my husband and 3 teenagers LOVED having our own rooms and space to relax&watch tv on our own! During the day, we were seconds to the beach in the morning, back to the condo for lunch and a nap, then Back to the beach in the afternoon. The condo had a great kitchen so it housed our groceries and snacks for the week and had every pot, pan, dish and cup we needed, just like home. Diane, the owner, was so knowledgeable of the area restaurants and activities and had everything and everyone at the condo ready for us and our stay. I’m so glad we were able to book this vrbo. We will definitely be back!! Thanks, Diane!!

Wonderful stay in beautiful Destin!
Can’t say enough great things about this property. Beautiful place at a great location, just steps from a pristine beach. All you could ever need for a great vacation. Well stocked with supplies, friendly onsite staff and the owner was so very helpful with all of our questions. And, can’t forget my personal favorite feature — a huge balcony perfect for morning coffee and an evening cocktail. Loved every minute of our stay. !!

Beautiful Beachfront Condo With Great View
Everything about the condo was wonderful! It was very clean and had all the amenities you could need and more. The mattress in the master bedroom was so comfortable. The balcony was amazing and was perfect for relaxing and enjoying the view of the ocean. We even saw dolphins swimming past! We loved the huge TVs throughout the condo for evenings relaxing. It was very family friendly both at the condo and down at the beach. The beach was awesome - perfect white sand - and was just a few steps outside the condo. The location was ideal. It was close to many shops and restaurants. Diane was an exceptional host! She checked in with us throughout the process and always made sure we had everything we needed. She gave us excellent recommendations for restaurants in the area and we tried as many as we could. We wish we could have stayed longer - we hope to be back soon!

Perfect Getaway with Family
Fantastic location with absolutely breathtaking views of the gulf. The Condo was very clean, well provisioned and the owner, Diane, a pleasure to deal with. Even with a couple of bad weather days, the location was close to plenty of shopping and great restaurants. First time to the gulf, but will definitely head back!

Superb Stay
I felt like I spent 5 weeks in heaven. The condo was perfect, the weather was perfect, the ocean colors were to die for. We even saw dolphins from the balcony. It looked like a family including dad, mom, and baby. The baby was constantly jumping out of the water as they swam by up closer than I ever imagined. We also saw more dolphins further out, but nothing could beat watching the baby playing in the water with mama close by.
Everything in the condo was perfect!

Great condo!
We have stayed at The Inn on Crystal Beach for several years. Unfortunately, our group (when we are all there) is too large for this unit. However, this year I was able to go a few day myself and then part of the family joined me. This unit will not disappoint. The first thing I want to say is balcony, balcony, balcony! Wonderful large balcony with very, very nice seating. That morning cup of coffee could not be better with this balcony and view. Beds are super comfortable and kitchen is outfitted with everything you need. Owner is VERY attentive and really cares about her guests. If group is small enough, I will definitely rent this unit again.

Would stay here again. Owner was super helpful with local places to eat that were fabulous. Condo was perfect setup for our family. The condo was well stocked with towels, pantry items, etc. We only need food!! Private beach was awesome for the condo as other places were packed in.

Stokes Vacation 2021
We had an amazing week at this beautiful condo! The tropical storm early in the week didn’t spoil the fun. ☀️ We traveled with our 3 adult children and daughter in law. There was plenty of space for everyone. Let’s talk about that balcony! Amazing views and the furniture is very comfortable! Condo was stocked well and bedding was amazing. This was our first time at the Inn at Crystal Beach and I can’t say enough about the staff. The restaurant on site was a big plus. Thank you for sharing your home with us! Side note - if you plan to eat at an offsite restaurant be prepared to go very early or plan to wait. Diane was such a gracious host.

Very relaxing!
We loved our stay at “The Inn at Crystal Beach!” It was a central location- and minutes away from shopping at Destin Commons. The big TVs were a huge hit, and the balcony’s furniture was perfect for afternoon naps and wave watching. We took advantage of the stocked beach toy closet- and the kids had a blast! The owner was extremely attentive and very kind. Thank you for opening your home to us- we definitely would stay here again.

Great location and condo full of amenities
We had a great time. The condo was clean and equipped with so many extras you don't have to worry about: from iPhone charges to spices and kitchen gadgets and appliances. The. balcony is huge and the view incredible. The beach and pool are wonderful and added plus to have a restaurant and bar. right in the building.

Relaxing, peaceful get away...
Since COVID hit, my family and I have not traveled, until just this past week. We wanted to get away and drive somewhere warm, relaxing and with an oceanfront view. We have never been to Destin, Florida before but have heard many positive reviews about the area. After searching for sometime online, I came across this condo at The Inn on Crystal Beach (private beach) and have never read such complementary reviews before about the owner and place. Our experience is exactly what I was expecting and more. Diane could not have been any more accommodating. My family enjoyed this location and loved the view of the white sand and clear blue ocean. I was told in advance that it would be very crowded for spring break, but we felt it was perfect since the beach is private and we really did not feel like it was overly crowded at all. We will be returning for sure and staying in this same location. Thank you, Diane for making our experience so wonderful.

Property is lovely! The terrace and ocean view is worth a million dollars! The owner was delightful and most helpful in insuring that our stay was wonderful. Provided great recommendations for places to eat and things to do in Destin. The restaurant in the lobby was so convenient and the food was delicious! A perfect place for a getaway!
