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 2-5 blocks to 3 grocery stores, over 30 restaurants, movie theaters, bowling, kids play area, and more! The stunning 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 a queen sleeper sofa in the loft. Amenities include a high-def TV, wifi, large deck, outdoor shower, full laundry, gas stove, and much more. The cottage includes an outdoor jumbo spa that can be used as a small, above-ground pool, or the temperature can be turned up to be a hot tub. It has 8 seats with different jet configurations and colored lights. It's a great option for small kids to be safe if the Gulf is rough; for adults to soak, relax on a floatie, do some water aerobics, talk under the stars, wind down at night, etc. We do not have an inground swimming pool. (The nearby beach access has a lifeguard during most daylight hours in summer season to help you be safe while swimming in the Gulf.) 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. Also, while 8 people are allowed per ordinance, we recommend 4-6 adults max for your comfort and to maintain the luxurious feel, especially for a weeklong stay. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach loungers - Beach towels ### Pool/Spa - Hot tub - Pool ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Ice maker - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 2 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shampoo - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - DVD player - Games - Smart TV - Video library ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Outdoor furniture - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Air conditioning - Heating ### Pets - No pets allowed ### Suitability/Accessibility - If you have requests for specific accessibility needs, please contact the property using the information on the reservation confirmation received after booking. - 5 steps to reach entrance - Handrails in stairways - No elevator - Smooth flooring in public areas - Wheelchair accessibility - Wheelchair-accessible path of travel - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Change of bedsheets (on request) - Change of towels on request - Housekeeping (on request) ### Location highlights - Near a health/beauty spa - Near a hospital - Near an outlet shopping mall - Near the marina - Near the sea ### Things to do - Bicycle parking - Water park - Birdwatching nearby - Cycling nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Jet skiing nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Rock climbing nearby - Sailing nearby - Scuba diving nearby - Snorkeling nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Wildlife walks nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher - Deadbolt lock ### General - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Bed sheets changed on request - Bicycle parking - Cleaning products are eco-friendly - Double-glazed windows - Housekeeping (on request) - Recycling - Solar energy - Towels (changed on request) - Water-efficient toilets ## Similar properties ![Fridge, microwave, oven, stovetop](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/76000000/75200000/75191100/75191048/w1016h683x5y0-5931d2ef.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 3 bedroom beach house with pool! 4min from beach!
