The pool area at Villages of Crystal Beach is a vacation 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 three parking spaces available in the driveway of the home. Trailers, RV's, boats, golf carts, and motorcycles are not allowed within the community gates; alternate 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 water-sports!

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 Movie Theaters and Bass Pro Shop.

If you are near Miramar Beach, the snorkelers 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 snorkeling reefs comprises 40 acres of permitted sea bottom. The Dolphin Reef is at a depth of 12-20 feet. We strongly recommend that snorkelers use a kayak, paddleboard, or other flotation device when visiting the snorkel reefs. Sea conditions can and do change quickly and often. Enjoy!

I give our stay 5stars the House of Kings is a great place to stay. But the furniture must be replaced the cushions are so worn down that you sink down in the sofa & have difficulty getting up. And it's full of spots. RealJoy did respond to TV issue very promptly. . BUT AGAIN IT IS VERY NICE HOME. Thanks RealJoy

The stay was great for my family! As stated in other reviews, the House of Kings 5 bedroom house was good but in desperate need of a new sectional. When you sit, it literally sinks you in and you may require help to get up. We loved that there were plenty of towels, pots, pans, etc. The host was always responsive . There wasn’t a remote for the tv in the master suite but it forced my dad to have to be out of the bedroom and into the family area to be overloaded with noise from his grandkids😂😂😂 There were no issues and we look forward to another stay when we want to get away!

Prime location and suited for large families. 10 minute walk from the beach and is also a gated community with an amazing pool to take a break from the salt water. Highly recommend for large families/reunions.

My family and I had a wonderful time in Destin. The property was very nice, and though not on the beach it was close enough that we could walk there. Food, shopping and other attractions were also very close by which was a plus! The community was quiet, clean and well maintained. The pool was wonderful as well. I will definitely consider this property for our next visit. The only drawback is that some of the furniture, the couch and chair in the living could use an upgrade. Both were broken but useable. But with so many people coming and going, I can understand trying to get the most use out of some things.

I liked everything about the property! We couldn’t get the volume or surround sound to work on the TV in the living room. Likely operator error?

Nice home in quiet neighborhood
Our family stayed here for five nights. The home is nice, nothing fancy but nice. The bedding is light and the beds are ok. I would definitely recommend bringing additional blankets as there weren’t any extra blankets to be found. The pool is in close proximity and the beach was a short drive. We had a great vacation and the home was pleasant.
