Crystal Villas A12 | 2 BD Destin, FL Vacation Rental

Traci H. May 2022

We had a very nice stay at Crystal Beach Villas. Overall, a nice condo, but the unit needs some attention as mentioned in previous reviews. It was perfect for 6 people and we will come back again soon.

Great place to stay❤️

Condo location was perfect!!! Walking distance to a lot of restaurants and shops. Condo size was very good for a larger family and beach was just beautiful. Only thing that really bothered us is that condo was very dirty. I’m talking very dirty. Bathrooms looked like they have not been scrubbed for months. There were films of dirt in the sinks and toilets. There was sand everywhere when we walked in first day, kitchen was also not very clean. Floors baseboards, doors looked like they were never wiped. We feel bad for the condo owners because it is a beautiful condo, but whoever is cleaning is not doing a very good job. I hope this review helps owners to realize that is a problem.

Manager response:
Thank you for staying with us, Bjanka, and enjoying this condo and the beautiful beaches. After a hectic season, we are working together to do maintenance work such as cleaning the carpets and upholstery. These items are scheduled to be completed in the next couple of weeks. We hope you revisit Destin soon!

It was a bit dirty. Old Contact lenses dried to the floor, fingernail clippings found in doorways roaches found in a few rooms. We had a hard time finding the parking passes. They were shoved in a random drawer.

Manager response:
Hi, Elijah! This rental is treated quarterly for pests and is scheduled for a deep clean. We're very sorry the home was not properly cleaned for you and do hope you'll return to see the best service we offer. Thank you!

Condo was very nice. Need to check on drainage problems. Sinks and shower were slow to drain.
Beautiful view!

Manager response:
Thank you for staying with us, Susan! We're so glad you enjoyed your time at Crystal Villas. Maintenance has addressed the drains since you brought them to our attention. We hope to see you again!

The property checks the boxes for a quick getaway. The views are fabulous and easy access to the beach. The beds were not comfortable and made lots of noise. There were not any extra blankets and the beds didn’t have enough blankets to keep us warm. The upstairs bathroom has a broken toilet paper holder. The sliding glass door going out to the patio is hard to open. There were a few dead cockroaches around the main floor and the ceiling fans are extremely dusty. The parking is also very tight. This is just an FYI for the next renter.

Manager response:
Hi, Helen! Housekeeping has been asked to dust the ceiling fans, and the toilet paper holder has been repaired. Additional blankets are getting purchased for guest use. Thank you!

As someone who was looking forward to being at the ocean A12 didn’t disappoint. Waking up each morning, sitting on the balcony and watching the sun rise was just one small perk!

Judy W. Aug 2021

We loved the roominess, very comfortable and clean. Good and easy access to the beach. Loved having beach chairs with umbrella provided to us. Refrigerator could use an ice maker. Overall great place to stay. Would do it again.

Carole C. Aug 2021

Condo was clean and comfortable. The large table was so nice for our group. Kitchen had a nice assortment of cooking stuff and we didn't need to purchase anything extra, except coffee filters. My only recommendations would be some extra blankets, but thats just preference. Would totally book again!!

Diane S. Jul 2021

We had a few minor issues that were reported upon arrival but nothing that was taken care of immediately. A12 has lots of room for 6 people, kitchen is fully stocked; however, could use better pans. The pans were stained and food was stuck to them. They have the metal pans, not the non-stick. I would recommend you take your own or work with what is available. I would stay here again and recommend this place to my friends.

Manager response:
Hello Diane, we are pleased to hear you enjoyed your visit! Thank you so much for taking the time to share your valuable feedback with us. We passed your comments along to our local manager to review and we appreciate guest’s preferences as a means to continually improve. We look forward to hosting your next stay!

The location and view of the ocean is great! Directly on the beach. The pool is warm and nicely kept.

On the downside, it was dirty. There was dust hanging from the ceilings and vents. The “king” size bed it two twins put together. The upstairs bathroom toilet paper holder is broke. The upstairs bedroom door is broke and my kids couldn’t get out or in without help. The only comfortable bed is the upstairs queen. The upstairs tub side is broke. There were two roaches in the room. One of the chairs in the porch had broken legs so you couldn’t sit in it.

Manager response:
Thank you for your review, Anni. While we are glad the location of the home worked well for you, we apologize for the maintenance issues you encountered. Our team has been made aware and will fix the toilet paper holder and the broken door. We have also worked with housekeeping to address cleanliness concerns and make sure our guests receive a clean and inviting home. We hope to host you again in the future!

Love sitting on the back patio in the morning and evenings looking out over the ocean. Lucky enough to see some dolphins a few times. This unit does what it needs to. Not too flashy, gets the job done.

Diane N. Dec 2020

Beds are comfortable and the view was awesome. No elevators, being on third was not fun.

JUAN A. Dec 2020

The view,the interior was perfect,beds comfortable all amenities we needed

Sanchel H. Dec 2020

We enjoyed this spacious unit on the beach!

rosa e. Nov 2020

The house is beautiful in front of the beach, equipped with everything we need, we have a good time, the shops are close. The only thing I could say is that it needs a little more cleaning, we were not able to use the sofa bed because the mattress was too dirty. But everything else was great. We definitely will come back.

Emily W. Oct 2020

We absolutely loved this house! It has the perfect ocean views. They provide a lot as far as pots/pans etc. Only thing we will bring next time is coffee (they provide the machine) - everything else was there! There's a ton of room and we will definitely bring our family next time we come. Great house for a family with kids - the upstairs loft area is perfect for them while you get the (bigger than pictures) king downstairs! We also felt very safe and clean, COVID-wise.

Jamie H. Oct 2020

Had a great time in Destin! The condo is in a great location! Our room came with 2 beach chairs and an umbrella On the beach witch we was not expecting.

Joshua M. Sep 2020

Our family really enjoyed the beach front condo. We will be returning next year.!!!

Christy G. Jul 2020

I loved the view and the grounds were nice. Parking is very very tight If you have a large vehicle. I liked that we had beach service included.

Lindy B. Jun 2020

The condo was great, more than we expected. Ocean view and beach access can’t be beat! Beautiful condo!
