Experience Your Vacation Haven
Sun Kissed is a beautiful, recently updated two-story beach villa located in the Crystal Beach resort community that will warm you from the inside out! The villa’s sunbaked exterior with white accents and teal, beachy furniture captures the Emerald Coast’s vibes right away. This is a happy place.
The home has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms and plenty of space to spread out! Inside, the home is tastefully decorated with elegant wood furniture that is as stylish as it is comfortable. The dining table seats 8 while 2 can sit at the kitchen’s counter bar. The space is intimate, which allows for moments of privacy. A beautiful master with king bed is on the 1st floor. The en suite has been updated with a walk-in tile shower and walk-in closet.
Sun Kissed villa’s second floor has a charming loft space with a sleeper sofa, surround-sound TV, and covered balcony access. The second master is on this floor. It has a king and a private full bath. The third bedroom features a queen and balcony access. The fourth bedroom has a queen. A shared full bathroom is accessible in the hallway.
For your convenience, all bedrooms have plasma TVs…great for winding down at night; though, during the day, you’ll no doubt want to spend your time basking in the sun (getting a glow to match your “Sun Kissed” villa!). The Emerald Coast is mere blocks away and an even shorter distance by trolley ride during peak season. Meanwhile, the stunning lagoon-style Crystal Beach community pool is practically just outside your door! You’ll love the luxurious hot tub, waterfall, surround sound music, and tiki lounge area.
Just across the street, for those non-beach days, you won’t be able to get enough dining and shopping at the Destin Commons. Destin, Florida has so much to offer.

We had a great family stay here. The rooms were great. Bathroom clean. Kitchen had everything we needed. Floors were swept but not mopped. The bottom of our feet were black on the first night from walking around bare footed. The complimentary bathroom and kitchen boxes were wonderful, full of necessary items, but they forgot to put one in the first floor master bathroom. The complimentary pineapple was wonderful. The swimming pool was great after a hot day!

Make sure you only travel with 3 vehicles. Parking overflow is not big enough for the amount of people in this area. You will end up getting towed and fined if you park more than 3 vehicles on your house driveway.

We stayed at Sun-Kissed with 6 adults and 3 kids. It was the perfect size for all of us and had everything we needed. The extra beach chairs and beach toys were definitely a nice bonus. It was an easy walk to the beach and the pool was nice too.

Very nice place. Plenty of room for the amount of people. Not super close to the beach but the shuttle that takes you across from the beach was fast to come and responsive. Would definitely stay here again. The floor was a little dirty on arrival but may have been foot traffic from unloading the cars

We enjoyed our stay at Sun kissed last week. The house was clean and had everything we needed. The pool was wonderful and kids as well as adults thoroughly enjoyed it. The beach was a few blocks walk, but not bad. If you drive to the beach, There was good parking at the crab shack and nice open public beach. The only negative was a couple of the chairs were broken out front, but we made due.

House was amazing and very well kept. Only downside was no one told me that golf carts are not welcome. Before I booked I asked about golf carts and was told they were allowed. Once we got there for our weeks stay, I got a call at 11:00 PM to say I needed to move the cart or it would be towed. I had to spend an extra $300 to park the cart outside the community for the week. If you are planning to rent a golf cart to get around you should probably look elsewhere.

We had a wonderful experience! The rental was in a perfect location with convenient access to all of Destin's attractions. We love our communication with the owners the most though. They were very quick to respond and extremely helpful. We hope to do another family get together here in the future. The rental was everything they said it would be. The 4 bedrooms were spacious and loved the community feel of where we were.

My family and I all enjoyed our stay. It’s perfectly located between the beach and the Destin Commons. The house was clean and well equipped with everything we needed. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. However, we ran into a problem during our stay. Our air conditioner quit working and it took them 3 hours before someone could fix it. It ended up getting 80 degrees in the house. This wouldn’t have been a problem because we had plans to go out but we brought our two small dogs with us and they were miserable. I called and checked in and there were many AC outages that day apparently. Once maintenance arrived it was back up and running in no time. When we departed Monday morning the AC went back out again. Not sure what’s wrong with it. Besides that one minor inconvenience, our stay was awesome. Would stay again, as long as the AC doesn’t go out again lol

We had a great time. Listing was accurate. Definitely at least a 10 minute walk to the beach but very easy to call for the bus shuttle. Bus driver was always quick to pick us up. Be sure to tip. We enjoyed the very nice pool and hot tub. Water was a little too warm on both but it is a very hot, late July. Kitchen was stocked with plenty to make meals. We usually make a breakfast or lunch and go out for dinner. Furniture was nice and comfy. Sofa bed was not so comfortable but typical for sofa bed. Still nice to have as an option and kids don’t mind sleeping on it. Was nice to have an umbrella, a few beach chairs and a couple boogie boards available with house. Umbrella has seen better days but was nice to have and did the trick on a very hot/sunny week. We were also thankful it was a pet friendly home as we had to bring one dog with us. She did great. They do have one baby gate at the house that we used to keep dog from going up the stairs. Overall a great property and would definitely rent again. Was very easy to work with My Vacation Haven. Always very nice on phone and easily answered all questions or concerns.

Beautiful, clean and close to everything. The kitchen was stocked with plenty of plates, cookware and utensils. Water was hot and water pressure was good. The only issue was with parking. The pictures on line makes it appear that there is plenty of parking but there is only 2 spaces, 3 of you have compact cars. We had a wonderful time with family

The home was perfect for our extended family - ranging from 8 year olds to adults. The kids loved the pool and the adults loved running to the beach. There’s plenty of shopping close by, too.
The house bedrooms are pretty good with the sound proofing, which was great as this neighborhood is rental central and there were parties on both sides multiple nights and easily twice as many guests in similar sized properties outdoors at all hours. It wasn’t entirely unexpected for an end of summer beach trip and those properties are owned by others.

Plenty of space and Nice pool!
We enjoyed our stay at Sun kissed property! The house had plenty of room for our party of 8 and stocked nicely. The pool was beautiful and there were fireworks for the 4th!
A couple downsides were;
The neighborhood was very crowded (it was July 4th) The pool pictures were misleading and was not close to the house and could not view from property. There was zero yard area. Property management never responded to VRBO message after arrived.

Destin Beach House
We enjoyed our stay, the kitchen has just about anything you could need to cook during your stay. Only a 2 minute walk to the community pool, and 10 minute walk to the beach.
Only negative comment about this stay, is that the floors were so dirty. It did not seem like the floors had been swept or mopped prior to our check in.

Dirty and no communication once they get your $
Sand in beds, floors needed to be cleaned upon arrival. Trash can overflowing in front of house. Rotten smell from pantry. Toilets had dirt ring in the bowls. Ice and water on fridge broken causing water to not stop and cause a wonderful mess to clean on our own. Person I booked with still has not call me back or answered my messages asking for immediate call. Linens dropped off the day before my stay was over so I had to go out and buy towels for the stay. No communication from person I booked from.
