We enjoyed our stay. We had four adults and plenty of room. You can see the ocean fairly well from the elevated deck. The walk to the beach isn’t far, even though we drove down everyday to tote our stuff. The kitchen was well stocked with utensils. Would stay again.

This was probably one of the most gracios hosts we have ever rented from. From making sure we had accommodations last minute to confirming we made it in . They really helped out when my wife left her phone in the property. The staff made sure it got back to us without asking for a single penny. Will absolutely ask to stay with them down there again!!!

Great place to stay!

This beach house felt like home away from home. Well stocked with kitchen pots, pans and utensils. The sleeping spaces were cozy but left plenty of room to move about. Property owner was easy to communicate with. We would stay here again!

A Bolivar Peninsula Value

If one wants to come to the Bolivar Peninsula, this property is one block and 3 minutes from the beach. The owner is a joy to work with. The price of the property is a great value.

Great get away spot while staying close to home!

We loved the location of the house and how very comfortable it felt; it had everything we needed! We only brought groceries for a couple of days and went out to eat during the other days. Walking distance to the beach was a definite plus; spent lots of time on the beach and it was fun! No beach crowds; it was a very relaxing and enjoyable visit! We plan to come back!

Quick, last minute get away

We booked just a few days before our stay. The place was exactly as it was represented. The house was very well stocked with everything we needed. The neighborhood was quiet and the beach was a short walk. Check in and check out was an easy process. I had a question about towels and the owner got right backbwith me. It was the perfect size for a party of 2! We would stay again.

Great getaway

This was our first visit to Crystal Beach and we will definitely be back. The house was perfect for our family. We loved the wrap around porch for morning coffee. The house was very clean when we arrived. The owner always had quick response with any questions I had. We will definitely be back! We already miss it!!!

Clean & Quick access to the beach

Fantastic Stay!

My wife and I go to Crystal Beach every year with her family and this has been our best stay yet. The house is a short walk from the beach and the owner was very helpful and was easy to get in touch with if anything was needed. Would definitely rent this house again in the future.
