About the property

Make your Emerald Coast getaway unforgettable at Serenity Shores, a beautifully updated five-bedroom, three-story Gulf-front retreat in Crystal Beach with sweeping water views, generous gathering spaces, and a private 349-square-foot pool with fountain accents.

Perfectly positioned along Scenic Highway 98, this inviting beach home puts you right in the heart of Destin’s most scenic coastline, where the sights, sounds, and breezes of the Gulf set the tone for a relaxing vacation from the moment you arrive.

Designed to showcase the shoreline, Serenity Shores features 84 windows with incredible Gulf views from all three floors, giving guests a bright, open, coastal atmosphere throughout the home. Spend sun-filled afternoons by the private pool with splash-down fountains, add seasonal pool heat for an extra fee, and enjoy complimentary beach service with three umbrellas and six chairs included from March 1 through October 31.

The main living level is made for easy vacation living, with an island kitchen bar for casual conversations, a dining table with seating for six, and a window-lined living area where guests can unwind after a beach day, stretch out on the queen sofa sleeper, and enjoy the mounted flat-screen television above the decorative non-functioning fireplace. A queen bedroom overlooking the pool and a full hallway bath add comfort and convenience for guests.

On the second floor, the Gulf-front king master suite feels like a private escape, with the bed positioned toward a beautiful private balcony and stunning water views. The adjoining master bathroom adds a spa-like touch with a jetted jacuzzi-style tub, steamer shower, and double vanities, while two additional bunk rooms with an en suite bathroom create a fun and comfortable setup for kids or extra guests. The bunk beds are twin-over-full with a trundle.

The third-floor master suite is a showstopper, offering panoramic Gulf views from 12 windows on three sides of the room. Step through French doors onto the private balcony and take in one-of-a-kind coastal views before retreating to the en suite bathroom with granite countertops.

Serenity Shores also includes a well-equipped kitchen with dishware, glasses, cookware, silverware, and the essentials needed to prepare favorite vacation meals with ease.

When you are ready to explore, stroll to Beachside Inn Cafe for breakfast al fresco, spend the day enjoying Crystal Beach and nearby Destin favorites, then return to Serenity Shores for poolside relaxation, Gulf breezes, and memorable sunsets.
Seasonal pool heat is available for an additional fee and can be requested before arrival.

Fantastic! Serenity Shores was everything I expected. The girls loved this beautify home and the location. We were literally minutes from everything (shopping, restaurants, entertainment) not too mention on the beach and the private pool. Chair and umbrellas were placed on the beach for us and this made us feel special. Loved it and will definitely rent here again...soon I hope.

Fantastic house on the beach!

Fantastic house on the beach! Eight family members met and spent seven days mid November celebrating a major birthday. We paid extra for heated pool, well worth it, beach everyday and champagne sunsets on third floor balcony. I asked each person to describe with one word the stay at Serenity Shores: Glamorous Relaxing Accommodating Marvelous Views Spacious Captivating and the baby said ooooo ! We were blessed with fantastic weather. The house is very private, but close to stores and restaurants. We might come back for a week in the future. Memories was made at Serenity Shores!
