Salty Dolphin - Gulf Front Oasis on Crystal Beach

FREE BEACH CHAIR SERVICE DURING SEASON (Mar - Oct) & BEACH TOWELS PROVIDED

Are you looking to have all the amenities while you live the beach life? Well, look no further as our recently renovated (Nov 2023) one bedroom beachfront condo, or our home away from home as we call it, has it all! Crystal Sands is ideally located just steps from the white sands and warm waters of Crystal Beach and minutes (1mi) from the famous Destin Commons and a few of the infamous beachfront food destinations Destin offers. You can hear the waves crashing on the beach from inside the condo at the Salty Dolphin. You can watch the dolphins swim and frolic in the mornings with your coffee too! Could it get any better!?

Our passion is your experience and we'll do everything we can to make sure you'll remember your trip for a lifetime.

Crystal Sands is a low rise (3 story) condo building with a private beach so you can avoid the crowds. It's also perched nicely above the crystal blue waters for amazing views of the beach and waters. Nothing better than watching the sun set from the patio as the dolphins swim by in our opinion! Except maybe a cold beverage to go along with it! The sounds of the waves crashing on the beach inside don't hurt either....or at least that's what we think!

With a first class design, luxury amenities, and an unbeatable convenient location you'll find it all here as Crystal Sands! You can enjoy an outdoor pool or watch the kiddos build sand castles while you get dinner ready or read a book on the patio. It's truly an unrivaled experience and we'd love to share our family condo with you.

You name it, it's new in our unit. We recently redid everything from floor to the ceiling. New floors, cabinets, appliances, granite countertops, king size bed, sofa with a pullout, and a new TV to unwind after a long day playing in the sand. If comfort is what you desire, comfort is what you'll get; as we believe our second home should be just as comfortable, if not more, than our primary residence.

You'll also be welcomed to a fully stocked kitchen for those with a passion for cooking, or looking to save a few bucks. Cooking not your thing? Mix a few drinks with the blender or open a bottle of wine before you head to one of the delicious restaurants that we've provided in the suggestions guide at the unit.

We strive to create an atmosphere that'll allow you to make the lifetime memories you came to Destin to achieve. A beachfront paradise where you park your car outside to open the door to an ocean view that makes you forget about it all right away so you can....VACATION!

So what are you waiting for? Come stay with us and see all that Destin has to offer!

This is a private one bedroom condo that you will have full use and access to during your stay.

We are available before, during and after your stay. Just a phone call, text or email away! We have included a binder in the unit of places we like to venture out to to get you pointed it the right direction for some of the additional amenities and hot spots around the area.

The condo complex is located right on Crystal Sands beach. The sand is so fine it squeaks beneath your feet as you're walking towards the water. Magical! We are within minutes of several great restaurants and bars. We're also a mile walk/drive to Destin Commons where there are several shops and restaurants to keep you busy throughout your stay. On the beach you're able to rent paddle boards, jet skis and some other smaller equipment. If you're looking for something bigger or other activities they are also close by and some suggestions are included in the binder we conveniently located in the condo for reference during your stay.

Most guests arrive with a car when coming to visit and you'll have access to the free parking lot at the complex. Some guests even choose to bring along or rent bikes while vacationing as it can be a fun way to see some of the sites and hop around the area. There are racks to lock them up.

Check out our reviews on our other unit in this building too as we just listed this one 1/13/21. (VRBO:1765260, 726646, 1195832). We love what we do at the beaches of Destin and mountains of Breckenridge, CO.

Cute place
We absolutely loved the condo! Very clean and the decor was so cute! There was a good amount of extras like tp, dishwasher tabs, trash bags, paper towels and hand soap. Love the private beach area and pool was nice. If I had any complaint it would be the bedroom mattress. Very uncomfortable. I was able with effort to sleep each night. But I feel like the matteress needs replacing. Still a great stay. Definitely would love to stay again.

Place was perfect for our family of 5. Patio is facing the water made it just right for morning and night time quite time. 2nd floor with elevator to help with luggage and beach cart. Private beach with 1 free set up during the season helped save a lot of money. Owners also had beach toys for the family to enjoy.

The condo was really nice. Super clean and communication with the property manager was always extremely prompt. The location was perfect, close to anything we needed to get to. The only negative, is that there was a really loud heavy footed person above us. Every night they would make so much noise walking around and what sounded like moving furniture. But, overall the stay was really good.

Best Equipped Ever
We had a fantastic trip, and we love the Crystal Beach area. We were amazed at how nice, clean, and well equiped this condo is. Excellent attention to detail, and there was plenty of dish washer pods, laundry pods, beach towels, beach toys, a roll of trash bags, extra paper towels, etc. We are used to having to bring or buy laundry soap and dishwasher detergent, but we didnt need it here. Our kids were also amazed at the wall mounted TVs at the foot each of the bunk beds, and we have never seen that before. Communication with the manager was easy and very timely. We had zero problems with anything, and we will be back!

Fun in the Sun
It was a wonderful location no question. Had a great time! But the notes around the place about using and not using towels and do this and not that did not make us feel very comfortable and or welcome to enjoy cook and eat in the condo. You are billed if a towel get dirty, do not touch the air, this and that in the kitchen, I didn't use any of their towels if we didn't have too. We ate outside and just took showers and stayed away most days. So for the money I paid it seemed extreme.
