Crystal Sands 312A

This wonderful beachfront vacation rental has two bedrooms and a lofted bonus room to comfortably accommodate eight beach-going guests. It is located at Crystal Sands in Destin, aptly named since this low-rise residential complex overlooks a shimmering ribbon of white ‘crystal sand’ beach beside the glittering jewel-toned gulf. The atmosphere is decidedly laid back, which is surprising since it is located in the heart of everything Destin has to offer. An onsite swimming pool is provided for refreshing fun and is seasonally heated during the cooler times of the year. A wide beach promenade is centered on the bright sugary shoreline, where grilling stations are also available for fun family cookouts.

Crystal Sands 312A is spacious with a soaring vaulted ceiling in the open living area and a wall of sliding glass doors that showcase views of the gorgeous gulf. They lead out to a beachfront balcony with a raised dining set to enjoy favorite tropical drinks and snacks while relishing the sparkling views. The fashionable living area has light latte-colored walls accented by parchment tile flooring and subtle tropical décor. A comfortable beige couch doubles as a queen-sized sleeper sofa, and a matching loveseat completes the cozy seating ensemble. This is a great place to relish the gulf views while enjoying your favorite show on the large wall-mounted flatscreen TV. A rustic beach-inspired hardwood plank table with bench seating sits near a sleek white kitchen bar with black vintage modern stools for additional dining and dining. The state-of-the-art kitchen has everything needed to create culinary delights.
