About this house rental
Summary:
"House was everything we hoped for and more. So much to do for all ages..." – Justin
Hi there! We're My Destin Beach Vacation, we can't wait to share Blue Marlin with you. Just 1.5 blocks from white sugar sand beaches, our 3000 sq. ft. home is your perfect getaway. This is where comfort meets fun. With an open layout, a game room, hot tub, and a complimentary 6 passenger golf cart & bikes, there’s something for everyone.
The Space:
Our guests can also enjoy a FREE golf cart, bikes, hot tub, and all of our fun games & amenities at the home! During our off season (November, December, January, and February) we include FREE pool heating for guests, heated to 92 degrees. For any other dates throughout the year, please inquire for pricing on pool heating for your booking.
"The house’s location is just perfect – a short walk to the beach. The pool, perfectly heated, was a hit, and the beds? Big and comfy for us all!" – Tracy
Our 6 bedrooms are your private retreats. Drift off to sleep in our luxurious beds, including a master suite with its own balcony overlooking the pool. And for the kids? A bunk room they’ll adore, promising sweet dreams of the day's adventures.
Here's a snapshot of the bed & bath layout, room by room:
Bedroom 1, first floor: King Bed with en-suite bathroom
Bedroom 2, second floor: King bed, Queen over Queen built in bunks
Bedroom 3, second floor: Twin bunk bed
Bedroom 4, second floor: Two sets of Queen over Queen built in bunks with two Queen trundle beds
Bedroom 5, second floor: King Bed with en-suite bathroom.
Bedroom 6/Game room out back: Two twin beds & a Queen Sleeper sofa.
One additional bathroom is located on the first floor, right by the living area and another full bathroom in the hallway on the second floor.
Step outside, and our backyard paradise awaits. Dive into our saltwater pool (yes, it's optionally heated!), lounge by the poolside, relax in the hot tub, play a game of ping pong, or indulge in an alfresco meal prepared in our outdoor kitchen. And as the stars come out, gather around the firepit, sharing stories and making memories (and s'mores!).
"The golf cart was a fantastic perk for beach trips and quick runs to Publix!" – Danielle
Our home is more than just a place to stay. It's a haven where each moment is cherished, and every corner tells a story. With Roku-enabled TVs, HuluLive, and speedy Wi-Fi, entertainment is always at your fingertips.

Located in the heart of Crystal Beach, you’re just across from Destin Commons and its vibrant array of shops and eateries. And with the beach so close, each day promises a new adventure.
"Our visit was perfect! The house was great and had everything we needed! The backyard was a hit and we spent most of our time out there! Any questions we had were answered within minutes! Beach was easy to walk to, and the golf cart was a favorite part of our trip as well!" – Jen
We are always here to ensure your stay is nothing short of amazing. Remember, our pool is open year-round (heating optional for those cooler months) and we’ve got a special offer on golf cart rentals – perfect for those little explorations around town.
As locals who love the Emerald Coast, we're excited to share insider tips on the best spots for boating, jet skiing, and amazing food and drink options like Bad Ass Coffee, Harry T's and more. Our involvement in the community and passion for the outdoors means we have plenty of stories and recommendations for you.
We look forward to welcoming you to the Blue Marlin, where your beachside memories await!
The Neighborhood:
You are in the heart of Crystal Beach, and directly across from the Destin Commons with plenty of shopping, entertainment, and restaurants. The Silver Sands Outlets are within a few minutes drive East with more shopping, restaurants, and a play area for kids. There are plenty of public beach accesses close by within walking/golf cart distance.
Getting Around:
We love taking the golf cart to pretty much anywhere around this area. During busy times it can be easier to take an Uber, Lyft, or taxi to avoid dealing with traffic and parking. The town is fairly easy to navigate, as most everything to do is directly off the main road through in either direction!
Other Things to Note:
• Blue Marlin is pet friendly! Just pay the $200 pet fee before check-in and you can bring up to 2 dogs.
• Golf cart is not available in group bookings 25y or younger.
• Pool heating pricing varies, inquire for rates for your stay! Please give us a 24-hour notice for pool heating so we can get it just right prior to your arrival.
• Self check-in with keypad

House has everything you could need. Quick communication with host. Close to everything. Golf cart, pool, and hot tub were great to have. Would stay again.
8 / 10Excellent·Jul 2025
Let me start off by saying Matthew did respond to our text every time and fixed the concerns we had but after two days we stopped, we wanted to enjoy our time. Here are some issues we found: they have a box of outdoor toys all the boggy boards were split in half, the four noodles they only 1 was good. The shower outside is not hooked up so you get a lot of sand in pool since area is surrounded by sand. Pool had algae in when we got there and pool guy came three times but still has something going on. we were there to celebrate my 70th birthday. We had 11 people and had a steak dinner the night of my celebration and only 7 people had adult forks and rest had to use baby forks or ate with hands. My girls were going to make a cake but cake pan very rusty. Oh, the 6th bedroom they state is in outdoor game room. It was so cold boys couldn’t use it and we had a lot of rain one night and next day water was in the room because how it’s not level in yard.

I had a wonderful stay at Blue Marlin! The atmosphere was peaceful, the accommodations were clean and cozy, and the service was excellent. I’d definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway.
6 / 10Average·Oct 2021
I could write a book about our experience . When we arrived there were flies everywhere and it reeked of something dead. The garbage cans outside were over flowing with garbage and one was full of dead fish . I immediately called the owner . He tried to tell me we would have to wait until Monday for the garbage to be picked . This was on a Saturday . I informed him there would be no way we could wait until Monday . He did finally come and remove the garbage can with the dead fish but I could tell he was not happy about it. We paid extra for our pool to be heated . The pool did not seem to have the heat on but he told us it was. When we tried to use dishwasher for the first time , water back up. I texted owner he sent a very rude message back to me . Tring to explain to me that I would need to rinse dishes before I put them in dishwasher. Like I was stupid, I explain to him I knew how to run a dishwasher and we hadn't used but this time. He sent his maintenance guy over to fix the dishwasher and to look at the pool. The heat was not on at all for the pool . We could tell instantly that it started to heat up. it kicked off again during our stay. the owner came over then and try to tell us the reason it kicked off was due to the excessive amount of alcohol in the pool. the funny thing is we didn't even drink in the pool. The house was not clean . it had tons of dust all over the air returns and light fixtures. The first night we arrived I walked around inside with my shoes off and my bottoms of my feet were solid black . There were a lot of hazards as well . MY husband tripped over the logs out front and one of the pieces broke lose causing a nail to go through his hand . We have went on many vacations and stayed in all different kind of places. This by far was the most disappointed I have every been on cleanness , and owner relationship .
