Crystals Sands- Gulf Front, Newly Renovated in 2023!

If you’re looking for a centrally located ocean-front condo for your next coastal getaway, you just found it at Crystal Sands 106B! Just steps from the beach and with two beach chairs included in your stay, you’ll have your toes in the sand in no time. Centrally located, you’ll also be near shopping, dining, and everything that makes Destin so amazing!

Crystal Sands 106B is a beautiful condo with one bedroom and one and a half baths accommodating up to six. Recently updated with new coastal beachy decor, pillows, tile floors, and delightful artwork, this charming retreat checks every box. The living room is the perfect place to catch your favorite shows on the new Smart TVs, fully furnished with a couch and two chairs, a new media console, and a coffee table. Connect your favorite devices to lamps with USB attachments and take in the stunning views through floor-to-ceiling windows in the open-concept living/dining space. A Keurig in the beautifully appointed kitchen guarantees a perfect cup of Joe every time, best enjoyed on the new dining set on the patio just steps from the beach. When the day comes to a close, retire to the beautifully furnished master suite with a king-sized bed, plantation shutters, and flat-screen TV. The kids will love the built-in twin bunks nestled in the hall, and everyone can enjoy their favorite music. A new, high-end queen sleeper sofa in the living room provides additional sleeping arrangements for two, while a stackable washer and dryer make cleanups quick and easy.

You’ll find a host of restaurants and shopping nearby at the Destin Commons, just five minutes away. Golfers will rejoice with Emerald Bay Golf Club, Kelly Plantation Golf Club, and Regatta Bay Golf and Yacht Club nearby, and the Henderson Beach Resort and Spa is the perfect place for a little pampering. From paddleboarding and kayaking to parasailing and fishing, it’s all right here on the Emerald Coast!

Beautiful Condo But!
Beautiful location, view , Decor & neighborhood . One small disliking was the old jacuzzi tub. In need of an update terribly & the jets were black & slimy on the inside. It could use an updated shower and forget the old jacuzzi & the condo needs to be sprayed for bugs. We saw characters that we didn’t want in our luggage.

Nice stay
we loved being right on the beach and it was gorgeous. It did smell a bit musty, and there were dead cockroaches in the kitchen under the paneling just sitting there and that was a big turn off. Some of the pictures had mold in them, which I am assuming was contributing to the mold smell. For the price we paid unfortunately I would not go again.

Great condo. Pool was nice. It was as close as possible to the beach.
They could have layed out the condo more efficiently. The master bedroom was too big. they could have shrunk the master and added 2 more tiny bedrooms and put a shower bath combo between them.

Inaccurate description
This year is the 4th year of us staying at Crystal sands, every time is been a different comfy but same building. Comparing to the others we’ve stayed, this has been the less kept up one, even though it says it’s been “fully renovated” if anything the kitchen is gotten work done. There is a review from September of last year, and after reading it, none of the stuff listed has been fixed. Everything is true. To add to the little issues, none of the power plugs work, only the ones been replaced around the kitchen area. Also, the first night we went out of the property we left our food out, and came back to roaches all over the food. The bathroom still has mold, old and dirty curtains along with the couches. The outdoor rug is very sandy. Asides from having the awesome view and the convenient access to the beach, there wasn’t much that we can say about this specific unit. We definitely enjoyed our vacations, but there was lots of small details that could be fixed, starting with some pest control

DO NOT STAY HERE & Don't Book!!!!!!!!
We booked our wedding anniversary stay here bc the pictures and location!! What we walked into is as follows: !. We landed in Florida and still never had a code to enter for our condo after a frustrating dance with calls to get it.... 2. Opening the door on arrival (the smell was awful) the door stopper on the wall just fell off and the chain on the door was broke. For security !!! We couldnt use it! 3. After leaving luggage to look at the rest of the place here is what we found. a) Kitchen refrigerator leaked so much from the freezer inside the refrigerator that there was a puddle of water always! The front of the refigerator was so dirty and sticky, so gross. b)Stove handle was so loose like it was going to break off if we even wanted to use it. c) Dishwasher we couldn't even open fully it was so hard to use. and it was sticky dirty on outside! d) Livingroom couch looked so disgusting like using old slip covers(that were dirty) and it sank in the middle! e) No Screen on the back door. It was laying against the wall outside. We couldn't leave the backdoor open for a breeze or the smell in the unit!!!!!!!! f) The shower leaks at the faucet non stop even on off. The drain didn't drain it took 10min for it to drain while after showering .Its gross with sandy feet trying to get cleaned up. g) & BUGS!!!!!!!!!

Place updated and as pictured but the mattresses in the king room and pull out bad were not comfortable at all. We did find a couple of roaches but they stayed they would be there promptly to spray after we left. The rug in the living room was filthy and I there was still sand on the floors from previous stay. The room is in a high traffic spot where people walk up and down from the beach and spray off but we love that the condo is smaller so the beach had less people and more private.

Great location
Location was great, nice quiet complex. We were missing some bath linens(washcloths/hand towels) upon our arrival, quick to respond via message, however we never received the items. House cleaners were to bring the next morning and we did not get the items so we purchased out own.

Pleasant stay
The location of this condo is perfect, being in the Crystal Beach area, which is our absolute favorite area in Destin. Our complaints regarding this unit would only be minor and are offered as constructive criticism only. The unit was nicely decorated and clean, except for the area rug in the living area, which was quite dirty. I would recommend providing coffee filters in the kitchen, as all other units we’ve stayed in included them and we had to run out to pick some up prior to making our morning coffee. Only two of the four vanity light bulbs were working in the main bathroom, so lighting was not ideal when getting ready for heading out to dinner. There were no mirrors in the bedroom, so that area did not provide a better location for lighting. We did see two cockroaches in the unit during our stay…one very large one in the bathroom and a small one in the kitchen.
