We always enjoy our time at Crystal Beach in Destin.

Our stay at 'Haven' was quite lovely as the location, proximity to the beach, shopping, golf and restaurants is just perfect. We stay there for several weeks so how the kitchen is equipped is very important to us. It is very well equipped and everything is easy to use. The house is a good size and the bedrooms are fine, except the visible bed linens are very tired looking, the queen bed on the main floor had a broken frame and the carpets really need to be cleaned. The living area is generous in size and the table and chairs in the eating area is great. The living room sofas are very poor and quite uncomfortable- too well used. The back yard and front porch are very nice and the parking more than sufficient. We always enjoy our stay and will return to Destin next year. There is a strange smell in the house upstairs, we think it comes from the upstairs furnace but we kept it at bay by using the ceiling fans at low speed. A little attention to the inside would go a long way!
Great House, Great Time!

The quality, cleanliness and size of the house were all great. Linens, dishes, furnishing, decor and pool are everything you could expect. The house is a block and a half from the beach. Easy access to the beach and parking was available.
If you must have a unit on the beach, this house is not for you. If you want a great house, this is the house for you.
Newman-Daily check in and other services were easy and quick.
Thanksgiving holiday
Reviewed on Monday, December 22, 2008
We had a wonderful family holiday gathering. Destin is midway for family from Florida, Texas and Tennessee. We have rented some three houses over Thanksgiving before - and two with my husband and I - through your agency.
We have a cottage in Upstate New York that we rent when we are not there.The rental agency has many stipulations as to kitchen furnishings, etc. We are required to have 1 1/2 times the number of plates, etc. We cooked a turkey at Snowbirds' Haven and did not have a large fork, carving knife, or spatula.
We had a wonderful time.

Great house with plenty of space, a nice pool, and veranda. Several blocks to all the major Destin amenities. Short three block walk to the beach. Great beach area with lots of space, great sand, and people.
