Experience Your Vacation Haven

Sun Kissed is a beautiful, recently updated two-story beach villa located in the Crystal Beach resort community that will warm you from the inside out! The villa’s sunbaked exterior with white accents and teal, beachy furniture captures the Emerald Coast’s vibes right away. This is a happy place.

The home has 4 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms and plenty of space to spread out! Inside, the home is tastefully decorated with elegant wood furniture that is as stylish as it is comfortable. The dining table seats 8 while 2 can sit at the kitchen’s counter bar. The space is intimate, which allows for moments of privacy. A beautiful master with king bed is on the 1st floor. The en suite has been updated with a walk-in tile shower and walk-in closet.

Sun Kissed villa’s second floor has a charming loft space with a sleeper sofa, surround-sound TV, and covered balcony access. The second master is on this floor. It has a king and a private full bath. The third bedroom features a queen and balcony access. The fourth bedroom has a queen. A shared full bathroom is accessible in the hallway.

For your convenience, all bedrooms have plasma TVs…great for winding down at night; though, during the day, you’ll no doubt want to spend your time basking in the sun (getting a glow to match your “Sun Kissed” villa!). The Emerald Coast is mere blocks away and an even shorter distance by trolley ride during peak season. Meanwhile, the stunning lagoon-style Crystal Beach community pool is practically just outside your door! You’ll love the luxurious hot tub, waterfall, surround sound music, and tiki lounge area.

Just across the street, for those non-beach days, you won’t be able to get enough dining and shopping at the Destin Commons. Destin, Florida has so much to offer.

Great House & Location
My family and I all enjoyed our stay. It’s perfectly located between the beach and the Destin Commons. The house was clean and well equipped with everything we needed. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. However, we ran into a problem during our stay. Our air conditioner quit working and it took them 3 hours before someone could fix it. It ended up getting 80 degrees in the house. This wouldn’t have been a problem because we had plans to go out but we brought our two small dogs with us and they were miserable. I called and checked in and there were many AC outages that day apparently. Once maintenance arrived it was back up and running in no time. When we departed Monday morning the AC went back out again. Not sure what’s wrong with it. Besides that one minor inconvenience, our stay was awesome. Would stay again, as long as the AC doesn’t go out again lol

Pet Friendly Vacation
We had a great time. Listing was accurate. Definitely at least a 10 minute walk to the beach but very easy to call for the bus shuttle. Bus driver was always quick to pick us up. Be sure to tip. We enjoyed the very nice pool and hot tub. Water was a little too warm on both but it is a very hot, late July. Kitchen was stocked with plenty to make meals. We usually make a breakfast or lunch and go out for dinner. Furniture was nice and comfy. Sofa bed was not so comfortable but typical for sofa bed. Still nice to have as an option and kids don’t mind sleeping on it. Was nice to have an umbrella, a few beach chairs and a couple boogie boards available with house. Umbrella has seen better days but was nice to have and did the trick on a very hot/sunny week. We were also thankful it was a pet friendly home as we had to bring one dog with us. She did great. They do have one baby gate at the house that we used to keep dog from going up the stairs. Overall a great property and would definitely rent again. Was very easy to work with My Vacation Haven. Always very nice on phone and easily answered all questions or concerns.
