About this house rental
7 Bed House, Huge Game Room, Amazing Views, Across From Beach, Outdoor Theater
*Inquire about renting one of our six seater Club Car Tempo with a sound system, leather seats, and a lithium ion battery for an extra long charge. We bought a fleet of golf carts for our homes rather than having guests pay the local rate of $165/day. We offer them for between $300 and $495 per week, depending on time of year. If you want to make sure a golf cart is available to rent before booking please inquire and if you have already booked please reach out to us about renting a golf cart.
This home is hosted by Harleman Vacation Rentals, a family-run vacation rental business primarily in the Destin area. We have 10 vacation rentals in the Destin area and are continuously trying to upgrade them to provide the best possible guest experience with amazing amenities and top-notch customer service.
This is an amazing home, as it has many unique properties. And please note this listing is for both houses. I get many questions asking if it is for both houses. It is for both homes.
First off, before reading further you should know there are many amenities that have recently been put in.
-The game room/movie theater is now a very nice game room with new flooring and the following amenities: pool table, ping pong table, air hockey, shuffleboard, and a movie theater.
-An outdoor gazebo with barbeque, fridge and television and a six seat bar area.
-The largest beach access in all of this area of Crystal Beach in Destin is across the street. It is a full block in length and you can just walk right across the street to the beach. You are set with this layout! A pool, outdoor bar with tv and barbeque, game room, and the beach right across the street.
-An outdoor ping pong table has been put in the backyard area.
-The backyard has cornhole, kan jam, and other great games to play.
There is also this amazing update: The city of Destin has acquired the hotel across the street and it was demolished the week of February 9, 2003 and is now permanently down. It will become a beach access and park and there will be nothing but pure ocean views from now on. This house probably has the best location in all of Destin.
There in an outdoor gazebo with a barbeque island and television in the pool deck area. This structure has just been built and the new photos need to be done. You can see some pictures with the gazebo in it. The back barbeque island has been put in and there is bar table seating in the front. This will seat 6 people around the bar and they can barbeque and watch tv, etc.
We also have already put in all new furniture and new quartz countertops in the kitchen. In addition, the bathrooms in the main house have all been remodeled as of February 2023. If you have any questions about the updates please read this description again because I tried to be as detailed as possible.
The house is an extra large 10,000 square foot lot as most lots in this area are only 7,500. Because of this, between both homes there are seven bedrooms, a large pool deck, screened-in porch and a backyard with room for games. The beach is right across the street and over one house so you can see it in the aerial. Beach access is on Scenic Highway 98 and Tarpon Street. Tarpon is two houses over and this house is on Scenic Highway 98. This home is right in Crystal Beach with a southern feel and it is one of my favorite homes as I own 9 in the area.
The driveway of the house fits six cars so you are welcome to park many cars and a golf cart if needed. In the front carriage house is a game room area which has just been refinished. It has the following amenities: ping pong, pool, shuffleboard, foosball, large screen tv's, and air hockey, bar seating and couch and a movie theater with surround sound and 110 inch screen. It will be an amazing game room to go to when you aren't enjoying the beach or the pool area. It is also a great feature to have when the weather turns and it is raining or bad weather outside. You never know if the weather will be raining during the one week you come so having this game room will be a great feature.
In the carriage house in the front with the game room there are three bedrooms upstairs. One bedroom has a queen bed and a balcony and looks out on the pool with a deck and an ensuite bathroom. The second room has a king bed and amazing ocean views to wake up to every day. And the third room has a full over a twin and a trundle twin. There is a hallway bathroom that both the king and the full over twin bedroom would share. There is also a couch in the living room, ocean views, and a small kitchenette. There are great views to the beach from the second floor of the carriage house. There is also a washer and dryer for your convenience in the front carriage house.
The main pool deck area is between the carriage house and the main house. There is a 30 foot long pool, a firepit with adirondack chairs, chaise lounges, and an outdoor ping pong table and an outdoor sofa set to lounge out and enjoy the pool. Palm trees and lush landscaping surround the pool area and are well lit at night to provide a nice tropical feel. Don't forget the barbeque gazebo which has nighttime lighting, a full barbeque island and fridge in the back of it and the front a countertop to sit 6 people and a tv to watch.
The main house is in the back of the lot (most of the homes have a main house in front) and has a living room, dining area, and kitchen on the first floor. There is also an attached porch area with more seating and amazing ocean views. There is bar seating at the kitchen with beautiful quartz countertops and the house on the first floor has a washer and dryer and a door to the backyard where there are more outdoor games. There is a half bath on the first floor living room area.
On the second floor of the main house are a further four bedrooms and three baths with the following layout.
-Master bedroom with king bed, private ensuite bath with shower, and a balcony overlooking the pool area and amazing views of the ocean. The balcony has an outdoor seating set with sofas, rocking chairs and two bar sized chairs and a table set to enjoy the views.

Great property!! Right across the street from the beach and the family loved the game room and outdoor area
8.0 / 10.0
The property was spacious and had all the necessities. The living, dining, and kitchen floor needs to be redone. It’s buckled up in places and is a trip hazard.
10.0 / 10.0
It was awesome!! The house was absolutely perfect for all of us. With the pool and all the other game's everyone was occupied and having fun. The outside bar with the refrigerator was a very nice added feature. Very easy stroll to the beach was extremely helpful. I will definitely be reaching out for this house in the very near future!!
10.0 / 10.0
It was nice to be able to walk across the street to the beach. The house was everything we expected and needed.
10.0 / 10.0
What a fabulous property and location. Honestly its better than the pictures as there is now a great outdoor bar by the pool and the small hotel that was directly across the street has been torn down so you have an unobstructed view of the ocean and you can access the beach through an easy path instead of the beach access a little further down.
The pool is a great size and the game room is fantastic for kids and teens. That said the location is what we loved the most. Literally a 45 second walk and you are on the beach. We easily cooked and grilled multiple nights for our large group and sleeping arrangements worked for all. Would definitely stay again!

I booked this property to host a co-ed baby shower for my best friends. This property allowed most of the guests to stay on site. Lots of space and the extra bathrooms provided just the right amount of privacy. The heated pool and game room provided the entertainment, when the weather didn’t cooperate for the beach. You could see and hear the ocean from the property and the public walkway was literally across the street. The open floor plan was perfect for the more formal part of the shower and for feeding the group. The hosts were super responsive and accommodating. I would 100% recommend this location and will go back if the opportunity ever presents itself.
10.0 / 10.0
This property had everything you could possibly want. Right across street from beach, pool, game room, projection screen, fire pit, outdoor covered barbecue area. It does have a guest house with 3 bedrooms which would be great for teenagers, we didn’t use it because there was only 6 of us. We did a golf cart rental which I highly recommend. It is easy way to get around as well as just fun. They had everything you need to go to the beach: wagon, chairs, umbrella’s, sand toys, and beach towels. I would definitely stay here again.
10.0 / 10.0
This was probably our best vacation we've had with our family. Although access to the beach was right across the street, which was awesome, we spent most of our time at the pool, gameroom and outdoor gazebo and kitchen. We did have minor problems that were handled promptly by the property manager, but overall I would rent this property again.
8.0 / 10.0
Our whole family loved the out door area as well as the gameroom. Any problem we had was promply addressed.
10.0 / 10.0
Overall, loved the property! Would highly recommend! Had one issue with the internet in the main house, but the maintenance team tried there best to keep us running each and every day! Theatre room and the pool were big hits! Kids would live this property for those looking to bring families along! Thanks again Michael and team!
10.0 / 10.0
Overall our family had a great experience and enjoyed having the 2 separate houses and recreation amenities. Kitchen was amply supplied and beds were comfortable. Lots of beach supplies although we brought our own. Location is perfect with easy access to beach. Cons - Wi-Fi in the main house was not working, refrigerator is not large enough to accommodate food for # of guests, ping pong paddles were broken, registration on golf cart was expired. Biggest issue and major safety concern is bottom step on stairs of main house which is not lighted and hard to see in the dark. Three of us had almost mishaps but my husband totally missed the step and landed flat out on the pavers, scraping up both knees and left elbow. Luckily no broken bones.

Our stay in Destin was awesome. The house fit our needs very well and it was in an awesome location. The teenagers loved the game room!
10.0 / 10.0
We enjoyed a wonderful week with our four children and their families. We had 16 in our group and this property was perfect with plenty of beds and bathrooms. We all were able to enjoy meals at the kitchen table together. The game room was awesome. The pool was great for enjoying at night and when we returned from the ocean. The location is great for walking to the beach and there was a wagon and beach chairs that we were able to use. Thank you for a great week of family fun. We would definitely rent this home again and would recommend it to anyone wanting to enjoy a great family vacation.
10.0 / 10.0
Overall, the property was perfect for our family. Two houses separated by courtyard is a great set up for outdoor activities. This house was located directly across from a beach access. We were able to rent umbrellas and chairs on the beach. The only issue that we had was that the house did not cool very well.
10.0 / 10.0
We had a group of 17 and this property was absolutely perfect! The game room was a huge hit with the teens and saved the day when we got rained out. The private pool and outdoor games were obviously used everyday and night! There’s nothing you will need in the kitchen because it has everything, I mean everything! The property owners are amazing to work with. Communication was the best we’ve ever experienced. If you are thinking about booking this property for your family/friends vacation… DO IT NOW! You won’t regret it!! 😊👙🏝️

Great property! Enjoyed the week. We had a few issues but the property manager came and tried to fix them immediately. Loved the pool, loved the location.

My fiancé (now husband) and I booked this property because we thought it would be perfect for our two families to stay in for our wedding. It was perfect for us! We had 4 children there 3 and under, our moms and dads 3 sisters and their families and there was plenty of room! We LOVED that our families stayed in separate houses but then had the outdoor area where everyone could mingle and the game room was awesome for the kids and adults. This is one reason we went with this property and it did not disappoint. It was nice having things to do at the house if it rained or if someone got too much sun the day before. We even had our families gather out at the pool for a first dance song and cake after the wedding and there was plenty of seating! It was beautiful and we would highly recommend. We loved the outdoor grill with gazebo over top and the fire pit for a he evening! The beach was so much closer than we originally expected, literally right across the street! We thought a golf cart would have been nice prior to renting but to be honest we didn’t need it because the beach was so close! If you’re thinking about booking this property, you should just go for it! For the price, amenities and being so close to the beach it is worth every penny! We are definitely going to be looking into renting one of Michael’s other properties for next year because of our experience here. We won’t be needing quite so much room so hoping to find something similar !!
10.0 / 10.0
The location of this property was absolutely perfect for our large group of 4 families, with kids ranging from 8 years old to 18! Plenty of bedrooms/bathrooms between the two houses, was fantastic that we had two washers/dryers, the game room was awesome for late night/rainy day activities, the heated pool and courtyard area were perfect for outdoor fun during the day and at night. Loved that it was so close to the beach!! Plenty of room for 5 vehicles to park. So many kitchen gadgets/plates/cookware/glassware/utensils- never had so many in any other rental we've stayed in- huge table/dining area in the main house as well as the patio area to accommodate us all at mealtimes. Only things that were missing- another fridge would be awesome (could one be added to the game room?) and the "back yard" behind the main house was essentially unusable- corn hole and can jam games were out there but the yard needed some TLC so we never ventured that way. But we didn't need to, because all of the other amenities were so perfect for our group! We would definitely consider renting this house again when we are in the area!!

We stayed a week at This property with our kids and grandchildren. The game room was awesome. Kept everybody busy for hours all week. I don’t know if we can stay at another property without the gameroom. The outdoor space was perfect for our family. The house just needs a little updating and kitchen items to make it perfect. The heated pool was a plus. Miguel the property manager was awesome and responded quickly. The outdoor fire pit was not working and he actually went and bought a brand new one and delivered it the very next day. We would definitely stay at this property again or one owned by Michael!!

Excellent location. Property needs some updates. Black mold in washer of the guest house.
Pool was heated and very nice. Screened porch was nice. Definitely needs new furniture in both houses. Couldn’t use dining table due to ant infestation. Disappointed in not having the beach chair and umbrella set up on the beach as promised when booked.
