You can make the walk on foot or hop on the free seasonal trolley service (Memorial Day through Labour Day): they will even pick you up at the house and drop you off right at the beach! The pool area at Villages of Crystal Beach is a holiday must! The lagoon-style zero-entry pool is 30,000 square feet of gorgeous, sparkling clear water. There is a spa, tropical landscaping, and plenty of seating areas. It also has surround sound, a flat-screen TV, and a grilling area to help you relax and unwind.

Please note that there are parking restrictions within the Villages of Crystal Beach. There are two parking spaces available in the driveway of the home. Caravans, RV's, boats, golf carts, and motorcycles are not allowed within the community gates; alternative parking arrangements will need to be made for these items. 

Area Attractions: 

There are wonderful shops and restaurants close by and great attractions such as golf courses, Big Kahuna's Water and Adventure Park, boating, fishing, and watersports!

Close by is Destin Commons, a beautifully landscaped, pedestrian-friendly area and a great family venue where children will love to play in the interactive water fountains. Also, for the younger guests, a nautically/pirate-themed outdoor playground features a 1,750 square foot soft play area with various creatures from the sea, slides, and a treasure chest!  Destin Commons also has a mini train for the kids. Destin Commons features over 75 shops and restaurants, including Godiva Chocolates, AMC Film Theatres, and Bass Pro Shop.

If you are near Miramar Beach, the snorkellers in your group will love the new artificial reef called Dolphin Reef, deployed in 2017.  Located just 685 feet straight out from the Miramar Regional Public Beach Access (by Pompano Joe's), it is becoming a haven for sea life. Each of the 4 snorkelling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Dolphin Reef is at a depth of 12-20 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkellers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

Overall Goin' Koastal was a nice place, it was not a far walk to the beach and since my kids are a little older that was not a big deal. The house does have a lot of space but the kitchen is smaller than it looks in the pictures. The only issue I had are more maintenance issues. 2 out of the 4 nights we stayed the air conditioner would not get below 80 degrees. One night the batteries in the thermostat were bad and needed to be changed and then the next day it still would not cool down so we called maintenance again and an AC guy came out around 9:00pm and had to clear the drain line. The AC did begin to work after that but it took until 1:00am to cool the house down. The other issues were more minor - the 2 roku remotes would not work for the upstairs living area and kids bedroom, also the bunkbed was not very stable and the kids did not want to sleep in it. There is a number to call for 24 hour maintenance and the people were very nice but it would have been better if we did not have to call at all.

Property was in a great location to the beach and the pool. The kitchen was smaller than I expected. Very tight if more than 2 people were there at 1 time. Kitchen well stocked. Would be nice if soap was provided in barrooms with extra toilet paper. The floors were very dirty. Could use a good cleaning. Other than that the house was clean. Only a few chairs on the porch. Could use more. Only 6 chairs at the dining table. Could use more
