A peaceful weekend at Crystal Shores

Crystal Shores was the best place for a peaceful weekend getaway. It’s located in a small town and is within walking distance to resteraunts and the pier. The owners were kind and responded to messages quickly. John took the time to talk to me about the history of the town. The cottage was warm, welcoming and was steps from the ocean. The comfortable beds guarantee a good nights sleep. There was an outdoor covered area with comfortable furniture as well as rocking chairs. The owners were thoughtful to provide beach chairs to use. The property is clean and well maintained. We will definitely be back.

Weekend Getaway

We are new residents of NC & live about 4 hours west of Kure Beach. We were looking for an affordable weekend close to the beach. This place fit the bill. Loved that this cozy cottage was right on the beach. We spent the weekend exploring Carolina Beach, Kure Beach and even caught the ferry to Southport to explore Oak Island.

Cute Beach Condo

This little condo is ground level and the kitchen was great to have! It would be perfect for a weekend getaway. Just steps away from the beach! The hosts were prompt in answering some questions I had once we got settled in. Bed was comfortable, plenty of lighting and the bathroom was updated and clean.

100 feet to the sand

The sand was at the doorstep, restaurants only a couple of blocks and easy to walk to, which was great since you have to pay to park everywhere.

Our Favorite!

Crystal Shores is our new favorite! We stayed last year and made sure to return this Summer. We’re already planning a trip for 2025. The unit was very clean and cozy. We had no problems from start to finish. Thanks so much for making this stay another beautiful one!

Fabulous Studio Steps from the Beach

This was an exceptionally clean and nice studio as close to the beach as you can get. Well appointed and the perfect size for a few days at the beach. The entire place is extremely well maintained and the owner is wonderful. Highly recommend this place

Ok, but probably will be back.

Me and the person in the next room never received our entry instructions until we asked for it. Emails said it was sent before hand. Not so....I asked the girl about that and she gave me the.... we are trying to get everything in place with the reminders. I specifically said well I just do not want it to happen to the next person and it did. I really feel bad for the lady next door , she arrived later in the night( knocking on my door) and was not responded to until the next morning. She had to go get another room until the office opened back up in the morning. Refrigerator needs to have ice ready to use when you arrive. You do have a public beach parking lot directly in front of you. So if you want privacy , this is not the place. Room was nice and adequate. Other than those little things we will probably be back. It was OK.
