Review for "Paradise Reef" in Destin!

Review #4727712 "Outstanding"

This house is even better than described! Spotlessly clean, very well appointed furnishings, great backyard and pool and a quiet location but in the middle of everything. Terry and Bill were very friendly and helpful and we would not hesitate to recommend either this property or Crystal Waters Vacations. Thanks for a wonderful, relaxing week!!

Hi, Bill.  I tried to post this review today.  You can post on my behalf if you'd like.  We had a great time.  Thanks again for arranging our visit.

Stayed at this property: April 2011 | Rating overall experience:  

Title: Wonderful accommodations!

Review: This is a well appointed, updated home. We especially enjoyed the outside living area - beautifully landscaped, great pool area and very private. The location was convenient as well. It was close to beaches, Destin shopping and dining, yet far enough removed from the commercial areas to be relaxing. Loved it!

Location: St. Louis, MO
