Paradise will materialize right in front of your eyes the moment you pull up the drive of this stunning Crestview home. Boasting modern upgrades throughout, a private pool, and a perfectly curated nautical theme, this home has everything you could possibly want in a vacation rental.
Sunny Florida days can be spent around the turquoise water of the saltwater pool, or under the trellis - visiting with your loved ones and enjoying the fire table. When you need a break from the sun but still want to be outside, sit under the covered patio complete with fans.
Inside, the living is just as luxe and comfortable as it is outside. The spacious living room comes adorned with soft seating, a large TV, and a gas fireplace. Whereas in the adjacent full kitchen, you'll find a suite of stainless steel appliances, gleaming countertops, and a breakfast bar. When you aren't indulging in tropical treats here, gather around the formal dining table as a family.
With four bedrooms to choose from, rest assured that each of your loved ones will be beyond content with their sleeping quarters. Adorned with tasteful color palettes, private TVs, ample storage space, and soft linens - each room is equally comfortable. Off the primary bedroom, indulge in some you-time as you sink into the warmth of the soaking tub and rinse off in the tiled walk-in shower.
A separate laundry room and central air-conditioning round out the home's stellar perks!

Nice house, neighborhood. Had issues with electricity (breaker tripping) took over 1 hours for finally the message got to the owner. She was able to help me immediately. Management company in my opinion needs to be better prepared…. They could not help me and kept saying the local group would contact me.Finally found a number local and it was the cleaning people, who were able to contact the owner for us. She called immediately .if I were the owner I would find a different management group. I would also suggest they would include all the instructions for responsibilities that we should
Do on the orig ial confirmation email that gave us the direction a to get in the house. I was on vacation and not checking emails every day. So I don’t see the email about stripping the beds, which would have helped to have that knowledge when we checked in.

Cute and comfortable home
My siblings and I brought our elderly mom to visit life-long friends in Crestview. The home was decorated beautifully and was extremely comfortable. The pool in the backyard was the perfect place to spend our evenings. The open floor plan was perfect for visiting and relaxing. Would definitely want to stay here again if we're ever in the area.
