| ABOUT THIS CRYSTAL BEACH RENTAL | Welcome to Reunion House — one of Destin's most sought-after large vacation rentals, nestled in the heart of Crystal Beach on Florida's stunning Emerald Coast. This 6-bedroom, 5-bathroom Gulf-view beach house sleeps up to 21 guests across 4,700+ square feet of beautifully appointed space, making it the perfect destination for family reunions, multi-family vacations, milestone celebrations, and large group getaways. The beach is just steps away — walk past two houses and you're at the Gulf of Mexico in under a minute. Crystal-clear emerald water, sugar-white sand, and your complimentary beach setup of 4 chairs and 2 umbrellas are waiting for you every morning, included with every stay from March through October. Fresh off a full renovation, the private heated pool patio is your own personal resort. Swim, lounge, dine al fresco, and rinse off in the brand-new private outdoor shower before heading back inside — no fighting for pool chairs, no sharing with strangers, just your group and a whole lot of Florida sunshine. With over 800 square feet of wraparound balconies spanning three floors, the Gulf views never get old. Watch pelicans glide over the water at breakfast, catch breathtaking sunsets from the third-floor king suites, and fall asleep to the sound of the waves every night. The fully stocked kitchen flows into a dining area that seats 16, because the best vacations happen around a big table. Two dining tables plus a full bar mean nobody's eating in shifts — just good food, great company, and nowhere else to be.

Family vacation at Reunion House
The Reunion House was perfect for our family. We had plenty of space and the kitchen had everything we needed to make meals. The walk to the beach was short and having a private pool was great for the grandbabies.

This was our second time renting this house and we love it. It's in a great spot and was big enough to fit all of us. The rental company does such a good job of answering questions quickly. We can't wait to go back!
18 Sorority Sisters came together after 40 years! This house was perfect for our reunion. Plenty of room. Super close to the beach. The management company was flawless to work with!

Family & Friend Beach Getaway
We rented this home for Memorial Day weekend with 2 other families. The home comfortably fit us all. The proximity to the beach was ideal and the daily umbrella service made it even better. The kids loved being able to splash around in the pool when we needed a beach break. The house had everything we needed. The beds were super also very comfortable!
Exactly as pictured on line & perfect size for our family. Very short walk to the beach. A few things showing wear & tear but overall great amenities. Staff was very quick & friendly to respond regarding an issue with a bed. The only negative is the pool alarm but understand it’s a safety feature. Thank you for sharing this beautiful home.

Family vacation at Reunion House
Reunion House is the perfect house for a family vacation. There is plenty of space in the kitchen and family room. The bedrooms are also spacious and the master is very large. The pool and deck areas were perfect for grilling and pool fun. We also utilized the 3 outdoor front decks. The walk to the beach is very short. The sand and ocean in Destin is amazing. We have stayed at Reunion House twice and love it.

Good time
House was beautiful, great location, plenty of space, be sure to bring pool/beach towels. Luckily we were able to check in a couple hours early which drastically helped our party as we all flew in around 11 am that day and check in wasn't until 5.

Beautiful house, wonderful vacation!
Check-in went flawless. The house was beautiful and clean. The staff at Diamond was wonderful to work with and consistently checked in to see if there was anything we needed. The text reminders about trash day and any other important information were great. The walk to the beach from the Reunion House was so easy...out our door, cross the street and down the boardwalk to the ocean, 1-2 min max! The pool area was nice. All the rooms and bathrooms were nice. The kitchen and living room were great! Would definitely stay here again and would highly recommend it!

Great place for a family vacation
The Reunion House was a great place to stay with our extended family. The photos are an accurate representation; it is well equipped, beautifully decorated and clean. The pool is a fairly small, but worked well for 3 children under 6.
The app provided to manage our stay had all the information we needed. Communication with Diamond Gulf Rentals was easy, and they were very responsive when we had a minor issue with the air conditioning - it was resolved on the same day.
The location is great - it was an easy walk to the Barracuda Beach access directly across the street.
We would absolutely return to the Reunion House, and/or be very confident in renting any other house from Diamond Gulf Rentals.

Reunion House did JUST that! Great vacation home!
We stayed at Reunion house 8/17-8/25 with 4 generations of family. We even brought the 11 month old grandchild. It was easy to baby proof all downstairs to let him run around with the family. So in our opinion, that was the cherry on top! The pictures do this home no justice. It was bigger and roomier than expected, great views from the balconies, rooms and bathrooms were immaculate. The ice maker was nifty to have for beach days, plenty of seating. The parking was pretty tight for 4 cars/trucks but we figured it out. Diamond Gulf Rentals service and periodic check ins about our stay was absolutely more than we have ever had before with any other home we have stayed in since 2011. The Happy Stays app had everything I needed for the house. Kitchen stock was great. We had a blast.

Enjoyable Beach Vacation
Very nice home steps from the beach. Best equipped kitchen I have ever seen in a vacation house. Pool was a little small, but it worked for our grandchildren.
