This gorgeous new 2 BR/2 BA guest cottage enjoys an ideal location in the center of the best part of Destin (Crystal Beach) a very short walk to the beach, yet it's private at the same time! If you prefer not to spend your vacation traipsing the halls of hotels or sharing condo elevators with strangers, enjoy this stunning but cozy cottage in its super convenient location! One-half block (less than 5 minutes walk) to the beach--including showers, restrooms, free kids classes—and a lovely cafe, and 2-4 blocks to 2 grocery stores, over 30 restaurants, movie theaters, bowling, kids play area, and more!

The cottage features a soaring cathedral ceiling in the living/kitchen/dining area, unique finishes, and a one-of-a-kind feel--to make the time when you're not on the beach as enjoyable and relaxing as your time on the beach. The first-floor master suite has a king bed of luxurious memory foam, double sinks, and a large shower. The second suite is upstairs and offers either 2 twin beds (also memory foam) or they can be converted into a king on request. There is also sleeper sofa in the loft. While 8 people are allowed per ordinance, we request no more than 6 adults for your comfort. Amenities include a high-def TV, wifi, large deck, outdoor shower, full laundry, gas stove, and much more.

Important: This cottage is part of a family homestead and is only available when part of our family is away. With all separate walls, doors, and windows from the host's home, it is a perfect combination of having a home to yourself, and yet having the hosts adjacent if you need anything or want to ask advice from locals. Driveway is shared.

Note: It's good to be wary of scammers, so we've kept some info on here purposely vague. For serious renters, we can offer assurances that the listing is real.

Unique Benefits

The location is truly exceptional and the home's unique style and finishes make this cottage truly special.

About the owner: We both grew up in other regions of the nation but have now been Destin locals for an average of 26 years between us. While we would love to be retired, we're not there yet, but we mostly work from home. We enjoy getting to know our guests, or leaving you alone to do your own thing--whichever you prefer!

Week end get away

I rented the cottage for Labor Day weekend to spend with my son as it was reasonable close to Air Force base.The cottage was close to beach. It had all the amenities you would need., very comfortable, The one thing that stood out above all else was the Andersons Andie and Wendy treated us like family. We feel like we have made life long friends. You would not be disappointed in this cottage. We will be returning and would definitely recommend to anyone. You will not find a better rental.

Just plain happy in the heart of Destin

Just plain happy in the heart of Destin with excellent hosts and convenience to shopping, movie theater, all the restaurants. We walked two blocks to world-class beaches and felt the goodness of the sand between our toes. We had a delightful coffee at camellias. Bang bang Dinner we had at bonefish Grill. Relaxing on the deck with a glass of chilled beverage. We will be back again soon to this clean, fresh and inviting private beach home. We made memories for a lifetime.
