This cabin was wonderful. The kitchen was fully stocked, big pantry 2 refrigerators and 2 ovens!! Which was awesome. Lots of seating indoor outdoors and downstairs. The living area is so spacious yet very cozy. We had lots of family in and out and it was very comfortable! Lots of parking. Spacious bathrooms. The isn't much furniture in the bedrooms but the is closet space. We did have trouble because the code didn't work but they had a key box for backup. Nice big yard that is truly beachfront with a great fire pit area , volley ball net and tiki hut. The sound and site of the waves were worth ever penny. We literally can't find a fault with this property. Everything was very very clean especially for a southeast Texas property. Their standard is above and beyond. And I clean for a living. Thank you
Inside the living room, we moved the furniture around so we could get married there.

Thank you for the 5‑star review! Glad the cabin worked so well — the fully stocked kitchen with big pantry, two refrigerators and ovens, plenty of indoor/outdoor seating, spacious yet cozy living area, ample parking, and roomy bathrooms. Sorry about the access‑code issue, and glad the key box was a helpful backup. Happy you enjoyed the beachfront yard, fire pit, volleyball net and tiki hut, and that our cleaning standards exceeded expectations. We appreciate you choosing Bolivar Vacations and hope to welcome you back on your next visit.

Stellar Property!

We absolutely loved staying at Fire & Ike! The home was lovely, kitchen and living area were very easy to hang out in and make memories. The beach view was fantastic, we even got to use the fire pit! (highly recommend). We could not have asked for a better stay at Crystal Beach. If you want to stay at a hassle free property where you can make priceless memories with your family, Fire & Ike is the place for you!

Wonderful break!

What a GREAT place! We came in for just a short time and wow, was it wonderful and relaxing. It really is right on the beach and great location, close to restaurants, grocery store, and bars! Great time watching the waves from the deck with coffee for morning and wine for evening, with beach time in between. The house had everything we needed and is beautiful. Just the recharge we were after, and we will definitely be back next year! Thank you!

Our extended family stayed here and there was plenty of room for everyone. The short walk to the beach, beach toys in the storage room, comfortable bedding, cleanliness, the bedrooms were quiet even when people were in the living room or kitchen....all around awesome house. Definitely recommend and will rent again.

Fire & Ike is a beautiful beach home with a stellar view! My favorite place was the deck off the great room. Half of it is in the shade, so anyone can enjoy the view, breeze and listening to the waves. The beds are very comfortable and the rooms are private. The kitchen is well equipped and there is plenty of space in the great room. There are plenty of beach "toys" and chairs and of course towels! I will definitely be back; love this place!

Awesome cabin!

We really enjoyed this cabin. The location was awesome. We enjoyed the deck and beach toys for the kids and would go back! Our only complaint was the sensitive motion light near the windows of one of the bedrooms which could be mitigated with curtains in the bedrooms. Overall, wonderful cabin!

Absolutely perfect!

We had the absolute best experience from booking, rescheduling due to weather, check-in and an amazing stay. This house has the perfect location, layout and amenities. We have rented houses on Bolivar in the past but Fire and Ike is by far the best. I highly recommend this property and the management company was so kind and responsive.
