Beach was great. Water is so pretty and clear there. condo was perfect for the 5 of us. 3-yr old had the bunk room, son and daughter in law had the bedroom close to toddler and grandma and grandpa had the main bedroom with views of the beach. The beach 3 baths were very convenient when we all wanted to shower at the same time when coming back from the beach. We will stay there again
5.0 / 5.0
This was an excellent property! The condo complex was only 6 stories high so it eliminated tons of people vying for an elevator. The view was phenomenol...dolphin pods swam by every morning. The kitchen counter had a fantastic space for all of us to sit and enjoy lunch back up from the beach. Plenty of space for all 5 adults and 3 bathrooms..marvelous. Walking distance from some cool restaurants. I highly recommend this place...I'll be back for sure next year!

Overall it was nice. The layout of the condo is a little strange with the refrigerator and the island. The bedrooms were spacious and it accommodated us well. The amenities were not great. I didn't like how the pool and bbq pits were situated but I do like the location of the condo and being able to walk to certain things. I don't think I would stay at this particular condo again but if I knew someone that needed to accommodate a large group, I would recommend it.

Great place to stay, the ocean view was stunning! The condo had everything needed. Would suggest leaving more paper products such as TP, paper towels and garbage bags
4.0 / 5.0
I would stay here again. Personally we would have liked more comfortable seating in living, it was bad weather 3 of our days so we had to stay inside. A lounger that lay out flat would have been great on the patio. The wind was too rough to sit on beach. But it had lots of room and 3 baths helped alot.

This condo has the most beautiful view, of sunrise and sunset. The home is clean, uncluttered, and tastefully decorated. Because I am a daily walker, I loved the blacktop path located right across the street. We appreciated that so many restaurants were minutes away. We had a problem figuring out how to use satellite TV on the livingroom TV but that's only because we're Roku users and it is a very different set up. This was our first trip to Destin, and a very positive experience.

While we absolutely love everything about Crystal Dunes and this unit, we did have concerns about the television issues. The instructions need to be better communicated. However, this will not keep us from returning year after year. We have already booked for 2024. Wonderful stay!

Reviewer Comments:
The 3 bedroom and 3 bath condominium was great for our family trip that included kids, parents, and a grandparent. The property gave us easy access to the beach, restaurants, grocery store, and fun activities. A major plus is the private area on the beach just for the patrons of Crystal Dunes. Also, we really liked the well stocked kitchen, having 2 elevators, and the team of workers that cleaned the property every morning. The only negative was that signs around Crystal Dunes say it is a smoke free property but there seemed to a bit of a very faint smoke smell inside this unit. Not a deal breaker since half of the family could not smell it but definitely glad to have the allergy meds for the other half. We enjoyed our trip to Destin and will definitely return!!

Had a great stay at Crystal Dunes. TV in the main FR didn't work the whole trip, sent a message the first day and never saw anyone. TV's in the rooms worked, also internet issues but wasn't a big deal as we were not in the room much. Location is awesome, so easy getting to the beach and pool and everything local in Destin. Without a doubt would recommend this place and will be back.

Our family loved this spacious condo. Such a beautiful view of the sandy white beaches and crystal clear water... We loved having two complimentary beach chairs with an umbrella reserved for us by the water everyday. The condo is very conveniently located. It’s very close to many grocery stores, shops, restaurants etc... We will definitely be back..

Overall the room was just ok. The apartment had a mildew order when we arrived, I'm glad I bought air freshener. In addition it was freezing in the apartment. I was hoping for more updated appliances i.e. keurig machine. The one thing that was the worse was the bathroom for the bunk beds it was extremely dangerous, the shower was not usable because the doors were not stable at all. I'm so glad we didn't have children with us because I would definitely have not let them use that tub/shower. I almost fell because of the doors and there should be some type of grippers in the tub. We did love the location as it was close to a lot of good restaurants and close to the beach. There were 3 couples and we all paid an equal amount for the stay I think it would have been fair to have a beach setup for each couple that's my recommendation also being that the pool area doesn't get much sun the pool needs to be heated because it was freezing. For wifi it needs to be written somewhere in the condo because what we were shown was totally different than what we eventually found out after calling customer service. If I had a choice I would not return to this location nor would I recommend it to anyone.

The unit is quite nice. It was the cleanest unit I've seen of all the rentals I've had in Destin/Miramar Beach. Some items/fixtures are a bit dated and there are minor issues (e.g., the patio door doesn't lock; a toilet paper holder being loose and not properly secured to the wall). The biggest issue was that the skillets were very scratched and way past their prime. It would be nice if the owner invested in just 2-3 new skillets/pans. Otherwise, the kitchen was surprisingly well stocked. Overall, a nice unit.

Condo was clean ! Beach views were amazing and close to restaurants, shopping and more. One of our best stays in Destin yet. I would say the only negative would be is not having an ice machine handy on site but that’s not a deal breaker.

The communication was wonderful. I was texting with a real human on their text line.
The unit was the biggest we have stayed in in this building for a comparable price. Very very clean. Stocked with pool toys, beach toys, beach chairs. Easy checkin and check out.
Beach service is wonderful as always.
We are so excited to have found the unit we love best in this building so we immediately rebooked for next year. :)

Great small complex and very clean. We were on a bachelorette trip with 8 of us. Security was super friendly and nice. Never felt unsafe and in a great area! Views of beach were great, although it rained most of our time but I would definitely go back.

We had a wonderful experience here! The condo was quiet and spacious with plenty of room for 2 families. The view from the balcony was amazing and we were right on the beach. The living room furniture was a little worn, but the condo was clean and provided us plenty of room. We will definitely be returning!

April 2022 Stay
Unit was very clean! Entire complex could use updating/upgrades in pool and other common areas. This unit was older but still clean and comfortable. We have stayed in several rentals like this through the years and I would say this one was the least stocked. No extra trash bags, paper towels, laundry soap, no beach towels at all.
