Description

Step into Crystal Sands 201B and let the Gulf take center stage. This bright second-floor end unit offers beautiful shoreline views, extra east-facing windows, and a breezy Gulf-front balcony just beyond a wall of sliding glass doors. The one-bedroom, 1.5-bath residence sleeps up to six guests with a king bed in the Primary Suite, twin bunks, and a queen sleeper sofa, creating an inviting retreat for couples and small families alike. Start the morning with coffee in the coastal breeze, then return in the evening to watch the light soften over the emerald waters from your private balcony.

Natural light follows you inside, giving the open living area a relaxed, airy feel that suits its beachfront setting. A comfortable slate-colored sofa sits beneath a large window with additional shoreline views, while a new wall-mounted flat-screen TV offers an easy way to unwind after a full day in the sun. Nearby, a round glass-topped dining table seats four, and three saddle-style stools line the dark granite breakfast bar for casual breakfasts, afternoon snacks, or cocktails before dinner. The kitchen is equipped with updated stainless-steel appliances and ample workspace for preparing everything from quick beach-day bites to a home-cooked meal. At day’s end, retreat to the Primary Bedroom with its king-sized bed, handsome furnishings, and palm-framed window, while the twin bunk nook gives younger guests their own cozy space. A full tub/shower bath, connected powder room, and in-unit laundry add welcome convenience throughout your stay.

Crystal Sands places the beach wonderfully close, with direct access to Destin’s sugar-white sands less than a one-minute walk from the rental. Spend your days moving effortlessly between the Gulf and the community swimming pool, then take advantage of the Gulf-side grilling and picnic area when you’re ready for a laid-back meal outdoors. Outdoor showers make it easy to rinse away the sand before heading back upstairs, while the pool is heated seasonally for added enjoyment during cooler months. Best of all, the peaceful beachfront atmosphere feels tucked away even though dining, groceries, shopping, and entertainment are only minutes away.

Destin Commons is a short drive from the condo, while HarborWalk Village offers waterfront dining, live entertainment, fishing excursions, dolphin cruises, and seasonal events. Grand Boulevard and The Village of Baytowne Wharf add even more restaurants, boutiques, galleries, concerts, and family-friendly activities to explore. With its sought-after end-unit location, abundant natural light, Gulf-front balcony, updated kitchen, and the beach just steps away, Crystal Sands 201B brings together the setting and conveniences that make a Destin getaway feel effortless.
