Wake up to the soothing sounds of the surf at Crystal Dunes 505, “You, Me, and the Sea,” a beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 3-bath Gulf-front condo that comfortably hosts up to 10 guests. Located on the fifth floor of a gated mid-rise in Destin’s charming Crystal Beach community, this light-filled coastal retreat boasts unobstructed views of the Gulf from both the living areas and the Primary suite. Families love the layout, with plenty of room for kids, parents, and even grandparents to relax, recharge, and reconnect—all just steps from the sand.

The open-concept layout invites easy gathering, with a plush living area, queen sleeper sofa, 65” TV, and panoramic beach views from full-length windows. The well-stocked kitchen features stainless steel appliances, a breakfast bar, and ample counter space, making it easy to prep meals while staying part of the conversation. The Primary suite is a serene escape, offering a king bed, incredible views, and a spa-style bath with a soaking tub, walk-in shower, and double vanity. A second king bedroom shares a sleek hall bath with a walk-in shower, while the third bedroom—designed with families in mind—features two twin bunk sets, a private bathroom with a tub/shower combo, and a 32” TV for winding down.

From the balcony, enjoy morning coffee, evening cocktails, and breathtaking views of the sunrise or sunset over the emerald water. With private beach access just a few stairs away—no streets to cross—you’ll have your toes in the sand in moments. After a beach day, cool off in the seasonally heated pool or unwind in the hot tub. Dining is effortless with Camille’s Café and Sushi Bar just across the street, and the Destin Commons shopping center, restaurants, and grocery stores just minutes away. Guests also appreciated the easy walking path nearby and the convenience of two elevators and luggage carts for seamless arrivals.

Extras like keyless entry, complimentary Wi-Fi, and seasonal beach service (March–October)—with two chairs and an umbrella—enhance your stay. Reviewers loved the cleanliness, spacious layout, and daily upkeep by the on-site team. From relaxing beach days to evening strolls and seafood dinners, “You, Me, and the Sea” is a favorite for families seeking both comfort and coastal charm.

Crystal Dunes 505
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 living room 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.

Great Condo
Condo was clean, well stocked, and stunned that it included two rental chairs at the beach for the entirety of our stay. Plenty of room for 2 families and being right on the beach was perfect.Would definitely rent this unit again!!

Crystal Clear
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..

Sunrise And Sunset Views With A Sandy Beach Below
Beautiful location on the pristine sand beach. This 5th floor unit makes the best of sunrise and sunset views while giving broad visibility up and down the coast. Peaceful and quiet, perfect balance of things to do/dine within walking distance and serene mornings from the comfort of your own private balcony.
