Beachy Stay!

We had a wonderful time staying here. The house is a short walk to the beach and the area is calm. Everything is close by to be able to make a quick run to the gas station or grocery store. The house and cabana were big enough for the 12 of us and the pool was a big plus. The owner was quick to answer and very nice. I would totally recommend this place for anyone wanting to visit Destin.

We had a week of awesome weather and spent a lot of time at the beautiful pool. Close proximity to Camille's for a short walk to get coffee and/or drinks. The neighborhood was quiet and low traffic. Short walk to the beach access, and the accommodations provided by the house suited our needs.

Family vacation

So over all it was okay, I didn’t want to leave a bad review I just think the property could use some TLC. Almost all the door handles were loose, the dinning room chairs were bent and made it easy to fall off, the handle to shower in the master room actually almost came off the door which made it hard to get into the shower. The bunk bed in the pool house wasn’t in the post which we fixed before the kids slept on it. Which was all kind of whatever, the most frustrating thing was the fridge had almost no shelves (they were broken) and drawer was also holding a shelf up so you really could use it. We had 13 people staying here for a week obviously we needed food but that cut the fridge space in half. It just seemed the over maintenance of the house has been neglected. The location was perfect and the beach you had access to was awesome and the kids absolutely loved the pool.

Great location and property!!!

We loved this place! Only a few short blocks to the beach, the location was amazing. House was newly renovated and super clean and nice. A thing to note - they only give enough toilet paper to last the first night/day. It didn't bother us, but it's nice to be prepared! Highly recommend and would 100% stay again!

Great house and location

We were lucky enough to spend 4 nights at Crystal Beach and had an amazing time. The house was clean and comfortable for 5 adults and 4 children. We opted to pay extra to have the pool heated and it was nice and warm for our stay. Very short walk to the beach. We’ll be back!

Casa Del Mar

Everything was great from check in to check out. We were 4 families with 4 SUVs and were able to park in their driveway. Check in was a breeze with an access code. House was clean and organized. They had essential supplies like soap, dishwasher tablets, shampoo, toilet paper etc. to get you started and then we bought additional supplies for the rest of the week. Backyard seemed to be recently remodeled and looked amazing. They have games, mini golf and a nice size pool. The beach gear seemed to be new, they have chairs, umbrellas, cooler, wagon and they were all in good condition. House is located in a quiet neighborhood and very close to the beach. We have little ones in our family and walking to the beach access was easy and quick so we definitely appreciated that! We had a great time and we will definitely book this house again!

A very roomy home. It fit my family of 13 very comfortably. The bunk room was awesome! The pool was even more awesome! Quiet neighborhood, beach right there. There were a few things I took note of and let Elizabeth know as most often, the host doesn’t know what needs replaced/fixed if guests do not let the host know. She was very easy to talk with and helped with a few things at the beginning of the week! Overall, a fantastic stay, a fantastic week and one of the hardest places to leave in the numerous times we have been to Destin. We have put Casa Del Mar as our favorite and hope to make it back soon and maybe to one of their other 4 properties! Oh, and there are crockpots. Just in case anyone is wondering!

Nice neighborhood, easy beach access, clean pool.

The home is situated in a very nice, clean area. Close proximity to the beach and a quaint coffee shop called "Camille's". The parking next to the home will fit 3 cars but it's very tight fit and 2 is more reasonable. As an experienced short term landlord, I wasn't overly impressed with the home. The fridge has broken bottom selves, sand in all the beds as if the sheets hadn't been washed, no beach towels, the pool lacks interior lighting for nighttime swimming, the beach wagon needs updated, some beach chairs are broken, the backyard gate needs adjusted, black marks along the walls in the upstairs hallway, no hand soap in any bathroom, a possible presence of mold in the ceiling vent up stairs, broken shower door handle upstairs, the Tvs in the carriage house wouldn't work and overall the home seems worn needing a refresher.

So close to the beach, an easy walk. House is roomy and loved the cabana which was so handy. Made for lots of privacy and good for anyone sleeping in. The pool was really relaxing and a nice size.

Family Reunion

We stayed at Casa Del Mar from June 25th thru July 2nd, 2022. Its about 5min walk to the beach. The beach had very clear beautiful water and puffy white sand. One of the prettiest beaches we have stayed at. We had a few glitches in the beginning but Elizabeth (owner) quickly took care of any issues. The property was very clean and the pool was crystal clear. We really had a great stay. Everyone enjoyed themselves

We loved everything about this house, from the rooms to the pool to the location. Communication with the owners was great. We had an issue starting the grill the first night but I was able to communicate easily with Elizabeth and the issue was quickly resolved. The home is spacious and very well stocked. The pool was perfect with our kids and the carriage house was a great addition. The house is a very short walk from the beach, which was important to us. The neighborhood was nice and quiet. Will definitely book again, at this property or other locations!

Amazing stay for a large family vacation

The property was really clean expect for the porch area for the cabana with the beach gear in a mess and the patio around the pool was not recently cleaned but nothing major. We had a family of 12 and had plenty of room between both houses. The amount of pool and beach gear was amazing. Overall an amazing house for a large group and a easy walk to the beach. Will definitely be staying again!

Great for families

We stayed here during Spring Break and had a great time. The place is more sea green and peach despite its fluorescent appearance on the website, so that was a pleasant surprise. The rest of the photos are pretty accurate, the house is beautifully remodeled. The kids loved the heated pool, the “grandparents house” (aka the pool house), and the enormous kids room which could have slept our entire family. It is a block and a half away from the beach access, which takes about 5-10 minute walk depending on how much stuff and how many kids you have in tow. Neighborhood is top of the line but still attracts some noisy partiers at night so bring earplugs. We liked how close it was to upscale restaurants, shopping, and groceries all within a walk or minute drive. Owners are attentive, proactive, and very easy to work with. Would recommend overall.
