This property was super clean with a great layout. Bedroom on main floor was perfect for elderly father. Nice to have all the rest upstairs for those that want to sleep in later. Kitchen has everything we needed for my chef son to cook for us. No need to bring toys, beach chairs and beach towels. Location was not crowded which was what we wanted. Great house with lots of extras. Thanks for everything.

5 Stars Doesn’t Do It Justice

For the last 22 years, we have stayed at various condos and houses along the Gulf Coast from Fort Morgan down to Cape San Blas. This house was, by far, the best place we have ever stayed. The firepit and the smores were a bit hit with our young adult children. The little things, like trash bags, soap, aluminum foil, and coffee supplies, were a big hit with the adults. Not having to lug our beach gear from home to the beach was also a big plus. I cannot say enough about this house. It was big and spacious and fit our every need and want. The hosts were phenomenal and stayed in close communication during our stay. If I could give Sandcrab Hideaway 10 stars, I would!!

Excellent property and hosts

The home was in excellent condition and all facets of the property were as advertised. The hosts were great to work with. We used the fire pit every night and they replaced the propane tank immediately when it was empty. The proximity to the beach was a plus and made it easy to go back-and-forth as needed. The kayak, paddleboard, beach chairs, tent, umbrella, and beach toys were fantastic. The beds were very comfortable and the home was extremely clean.

Perfect family getaway

We had a great vacation at the sand crab hideaway. The house was beautiful, clean, and had a beautiful deck & ocean views. We loved that it came with everything we needed— all the beach chairs & toys & more. Our kids enjoyed making s’mores at night on the firepit. Overall would recommend and stay here again!

The house was great and wonderfully well stocked and appointed. We did have issues w the internet and not being able to find the router to reset. Was really only an issue bc it rained the last day and some people wanted to watch the fight the last night and we had trouble getting the tvs to work.

Perfect for a Family Vacation

This was one of the best VRBO's we've ever stayed at. House was perfect for two families (10 total). It was clean and well cared for. You will have direct access to the beach. Beach is away from the touristy areas and was never overcrowded. House is located on the end of the cul de sac, so never had any noise issues with people coming and going. Kristine and Scott were very responsive and accommodating. The hidden gems of this house - location, the fully stocked kitchen with updated applications, plenty of coffee, snacks/smore kit for the kids, water bottles in the fridge, detergent/pods for our use, the amount of beach toys/chairs/wagon for us to use, just all the little things that go a long way. We couldn't have asked for more for this stay. Thank you!

Amazing views and easy access to the beach!

If you are looking for a family friendly house with easy access to the beach this is your place! We loved that there were plenty of beach toys and chairs for the whole family! The short walk to the beach made it easy for the back and forths with the littles and drink refills. All the beds were very clean and comfy, too!

A beach house perfect for families

The Sand Crab Hideaway is a gem! Great for families with the beach outside your door. Not to mention, the beach at this location isn’t overcrowded—you’ll get front row seats. The house is away from busy roads and on the end of a cul-du-sac. The host(s) was super speedy in responding to questions. The house was clean and stocked with fresh towels, as well as beach towels. The closet (outside) had beach chairs, boogie boards, toys, and a helpful wagon. Couldn’t ask for more. Thank you for the wonderful stay—We hope to return! :)
