Great House

  • 5 of 5
  • Submitted: Jun 13, 2013
  • Stayed: Jun 2013
The Crystal Pearl was the perfect house for our visit to Destin. Having all the bedrooms on the second and third floors was great for putting smaller children to bed, while others wanted to hang out downstairs and around the pool. The back yard was perfect for hanging out, and the screened in porch was quite possibly my favorite part of the house. The house was clean and stocked with bath towels and cooking equipment. The house also is within great walking distance to the beach and a church park. You could even walk to the local surf shop and outdoor mall. We also visited the coffee shop every morning for coffee and smoothies. The house is located close to everything without being in an overcrowded area. We would stay again!

Crystal Pearl house was amazing. We had 2 families and 4 small children under the age of 5. The house was spacious, clean, and had everything we needed. The house is located on a quiet street, that has almost no traffic. Also, the yard to the house is totally fenced in, so the kids could play outside no problem. The house has a great BBQ Pit, a grill and and outdoor shower so it makes it easy to come in from the beach. It was a 5 minute walk to the beach, but easy to do if you bring your red wagons! The kitchen was equiped with everything you need to cook in, and speciality items for grilling. We even found a bucket of beach toys, a float for the pool an umbrella for the beach. We will plan to stay here again next year!! Loved it!

Perfect place for a family stay

We spent a week in this place and we were very happy about it. The facility is really spacious (3 families with babies fit in there easily) and very well equipped (e.g. lots of kitchen utensils, beach toys, lcds with dvd players in every bedroom, nice bed sheets etc.). There is a nice and clean pool in the backyard. The public beach is in 5 mins walk from the house. In 3 mins drive there is a variety of stores and dinning places in the nearby shopping centre. During the whole week we didn't have a single issue with the facility and we enjoyed the stay a lot. I would highly recommend this place to my best friend!

My husband and I spent a fantastic two weeks here and are already talking about when we can return. The location is perfect with the beach, restaurant and bars on your doorstep. All the information provided by the owners was completely accurate and it's as though they have rented out their home to you not just a holiday rental.
Owner's Response: Hi Amanda. We are so glad that you enjoyed yourself and that the location was perfect for you. Hope we see you guys again soon!!

My family and my sisters family stayed in the Crystal Pearl and just loved it. The house was better than pictured and very clean & had everything we needed for the week. There were even chairs and an umbrella for us to take to the beach and beach toys for the younger kids. My sisters young children played in the pool and at the nearby playground and my older kids rented paddleboards from the shop 3 blocks away and spent their days at the beach. Big kids also walked up to the nearby movie theater in the evenings. The adults alternated between the backyard pool and the beach. Would definitely recommend this house & location in Destin!
