You can't beat the location. We had several young children in our group and the convenience of having a house close by the beach worked great for us.Additionally, you don't have to bother with finding parking with the beach within an easy walk. The only improvement I would recommend is that some new nonstick skillets be added to replace the existing ones that are in bad shape.

Location to the pool and beach was great. House was clean and had plenty of room for our family. Only complaint was that we were not told the gas grill was not in working order. There was a charcoal grill available but wish we had known before arrival. Overall it was a great vacation. This is one of our favorite neighborhoods to stay in. Have stayed in 3 different houses in Emerald Shores.

House was so much better than expected. Large and spacious rooms and bathrooms. We were at max capacity and fit pretty comfortably. Cart with beach wheels was already on standby to go to the beach and held all of our things comfortably. Kitchen had everything we needed to cook full meals for all 12 people. Close to beach and super close to pool. All stores you could ever need were close by, under 5 miles away. Balconies were nice. Didn't realize there wasn't much of a lawn though. Only suggestion is maybe move a dresser in master to the third floor loft (there wasn't any storage) and black out curtains to help with the morning sun and warmth of the second floor. Also don't forget that list of things they tell you to get. Paper goods, something to clean counters ect, they will not be provided. Master had a fan, iron, hangers in the closet. That was a nice surprise. Overall we highly recommend!

We had a wonderful time as a group of 9. The house was neat and clean. Everything was as advertised. We we received the codes with ease and loved being close to the pool. Furniture was comfortable and clean. I do wish we would have rented a golf cart, with children it was a little bit of a walk. Enjoyed the private beach entrance with bathrooms and a place to get a drink. I would have liked to have curtains in the bedrooms since the sun shines in very early. Also, the fans need to be tightened as they are loud when trying to sleep. Overall a very pleasant trip.
Loved Lonnis Gem!

We stayed at Lonnis Gen for a week and loved it. The location was perfect, walk to the beach was doable, and we had the pool right by us. Definitely would recommend this location and the Crystal Water Vacation Homes/ Realty to anyone I know.

Hi Diana, Thanks for the recommendation for Lonni's Gem! You're absolutely right, the location is great. The house is in a good location within the community as well as in close proximity to the beach and restaurants, shopping, etc. We would love for your family to stay here again next summer. ~Crystal Waters Vacations

It was great!!! It looked exactly like the pictures, it was clean on arrival. The private beach access was great... it was a walkable distance or you can get a ride. The only thing I wish I could have change and would have been the road work and traffic but just plan for it when going into town. We didn’t have any problems during our stay

Hello James Family, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review of your stay at Lonni's Gem. I know this was a special trip for your family, since so many relatives were able to get together! We hope you'll make it an annual trip and return in July, 2020. Hopefully by then the road work will be completed. ~Crystal Waters Vacations

My family and I spent our vacation in Destin just days following Hurricane Michael. Amazingly enough, there was no damage and actually no indication that a hurricane had passed through the area. We were very pleased with Lonnie's Gem and the neighborhood as well; it was a home that had every amenity that you could possibly need to make your vacation enjoyable and memorable. We highly recommend this "gem" to other large family vacationers.

Our family had originally planned to go to the Charleston, SC area for our vacation but with hurricane Florence those plans changed. We found Destin and more particularly “Lonni’s Gem” the day before we checked in. The reservation process was fantastic and more importantly the house was perfect. Plenty of space for all 9 of us and even the kids had their own space and rooms as well. House was clean and definitley updated. Had an issue with the AC on our 2nd to last night there and the Crystal Waters folks were right on top of it even after hours. We would definitely recommend this house and would love to stay again.
Manager's Response
Hello Beckstrand Family, We were happy to be help your family find a vacation home a little farther south than you were planning to go. But due to the hurricane, your options were limited. We are so happy that we were able to meet your family and introduce you to the Destin area. Hope you'll come back year after year!

Property condition
It was lovely and we had a fabulous time. The dresser in the second bedroom needs repair or replacing as some of the drawers do not open.
Manager's Response
So glad you had a nice stay in Destin. Lonni's Gem is a great house in Emerald Shores. We'll check the drawers. Thanks.

We really enjoyed our stay. It was a short walk to the beach. The pool was close to our rental home. Plenty of room for everyone.

We couldn't have asked for a better place! It was able to handle our whole group and never felt crowded! The wagon, beach chairs, and umbrella were a pleasant surprise also! We ended up donating our boggie-boards too. They only issue we had was our trash wasn't emptied when they told us it would be. We had 11 people for 7 days = an overflowing dumpster. Bring extra pillows or blankets if you need that sofa sleeper (couldn't find any in the closets) but leave all the kitchen supplies at home! The place is stocked like your own!! We loved the beach pavilion and the tram was helpful. I would recommend this property to anyone with a big group, it was perfect!

So glad you enjoyed your stay at Lonni's Gem! It is a super nice home with newer furniture and recent updates. The private beach cabana is close the pools even closer! There should be pillows and blankets in the closets. Sometimes people move them all over the house. Will make sure they are there! The trash is scheduled to be picked up 3 times during the week in the Summer. Not sure what happened with that but we do recommend bringing the big 30 gallon trash bags just in case the 2 cans are not enough.

It was great! The house was nice and the beach and restaurants and shops were so close which made everything very easy for us since we have never been to Florida!
We loved our stay!
My only negatives, were that the dishes were very dirty. We picked up multiple dishes that still have food on them.

Property was very dirty. Bedding/sheets were stained. We ended up purchasing additional bedding for our stay. Floors were so dirty that our feet turned black. Furniture was stained and very broken in and old.
Great location and beautiful beaches.
