About the neighborhood
Destin
Located in Crystal Beach within a short walk of Miramar Beach, this vacation home is within a mile (2 km) of other popular sights such as Destin Commons. The vacation home includes a private pool, a kitchen, and a balcony.
Seasonally-heated (between October 1 and April 30), private, fenced pool with splash pad.
Boasting 8 bedrooms each with its own personal bath, Vista offers a large 19 person sleeping capacity with a massive, ocean view, rooftop deck while maintaining its designer-curated, coastal fun style.
Looking for easy beach access? Vista is located in Crystal Beach, which boasts 6 neighborhood beach accesses. Neighborhood beach accesses offer the same beach as our massive public beaches but without car parking. The result? These sugar sand beach accesses are available only practical for the lucky few who can walk or golf cart to them, meaning they are much less crowded. And the closest neighborhood beach access to Vista is only 351 feet away!
Of course, variety is the spice of life and with over 10 public beaches within 1 mile of Vista, you’ll never run short of options to soak up the sun.
And when you are ready to return home, cool off in our pool or lounge on its splash deck. Afterward, grill your fresh caught seafood in the free-to-use propane grill.
In the evening, savor the coastal breeze and panoramic ocean view from Vista’s 4th story rooftop ocean view deck.
Not a worn out rental. With its construction just completed in 2023, Vista boasts the latest features to assure your comfort and convenience…not to mention designer-grade furnishings, premium mattresses, and state of the art appliances and bedding.
Planning a special meal for the entire group? No problem! Vista offers simultaneous 20 person dining (12 at the dining table, 4 at the island, and 4 on the al fresco pool deck) so that everyone in your large group can share meals and memories together. And if that’s not enough, there’s always the 3rd floor dining and kitchenette that offers an additional 10 person seating.
Of course, not every meal is going to be chef-quality. So, Vista offers grab-n-go seating around its island to make quick work of mealtime…in order to maximize beachtime!
Need configurable space? Vista also offers a third floor living, kitchenette and dining. It’s almost like having a separate apartment. This opens many opportunities to provide a place for the kids to hang in order to enable some adult conversation in the 1st floor living spaces; a separate living area for mom’s with newborns or other family members who would like a little extra quiet space/privacy; or even a separate game table or conference area.
Visiting off-season? Enjoy Vista’s seasonally heated pool (between October 1 and April 30) at no additional charge.
Want to explore Destin’s famous Scenic Gulf Parkway? It couldn’t be any easier! Vista includes four free bikes and is less than 300 feet from Scenic Gulf Parkway.
Don’t want to peddle? No problem. Vista includes a free, eco-friendly, six seater golf cart to whisk you and your family to any of our world famous restaurants and eclectic boutiques along Florida’s Emerald Coast!
Vista is also less than 3 minute golf cart ride to our public regional beach access points (yep, the huge white beach accesses that you see in brochures); less than a mile from Destin Commons (our premiere shopping, entertainment and dining complex); only minutes away from our area's best oceanfront dining, grocery stores and more.
This is your opportunity to create memories with family and friends that you will cherish forever. Don’t rent just another beach house. Reserve Vista’s coastal living experience for your preferred dates before it's too late!

Beautiful House
The house was everything we could have wanted. Great location, beautiful home, amazing amenities. We used the golf cart and bikes all the time. The only thing we’d suggest is to keep a set of dishes and silverware in the 3rd floor kitchen. Other than that we’d highly recommend this property.

Breathtaking
Just got back from 7 nights spent in this beautiful home. By far, this place is the best of the best. Absolutely ZERO issues or complaints. Backyard pool setup was priceless.
Golf cart was a bonus too. Thanks again for sharing your home, Bob
