Holiday Special! Views! Beachside, HotTub, Arcade, FirePit, Pets, Family Retreat
Please reach out for the available discounts!
The best memories are made at the beach! Purple Surf is the perfect space to relax & enjoy time with your family and friends. Just seconds from the beach, where you can soak in the sun all day! Enjoy grilling, dinner, and cornhole while your kids play in the enclosed yard with playset. Close to stores & restaurants, but not too close for the noise. After a long day of fun, unwind and watch one of the six ROKU TVs, play some board games, or challenge each other on the classic arcade machine!
Purple Surf is a 1700 sqft home that has 5 bedrooms, 3 baths, a fully equipped kitchen with both drip-style coffee machine and Keurig-style coffee machine. The deck is perfect for enjoying the sunrise with your coffee or sunset with your cocktail. The entertaining area below the stilted house has tons of space to hang out, grill, and play some cornhole with the family. Whether you’re in town to work on your tan, celebrate a holiday, charter a fishing boat, or “just for fun”, this is the perfect Crystal Beach home base.
You must be at least 25 years old to book this property*

Arrive at this home and find massive picnic tables ready for your family nights, right next to the fully fenced yard with playset.

Sit back and enjoy the sounds of the waves as you witness the beautiful gulf sunsets! It’s true, there is nothing better than a Texas sunset!

About the host
Hosted by Carrie Lupton
Thanks for considering our home! A little about us- my family and I (my husband and our 5 kids) love being outdoors and exploring. Originally from Texas, we've lived in NY, WI, CO, and now back to Texas and thoroughly enjoy seeing what each state has to offer. We have learned that we have a deep admiration for the mountains and the beach. Our home in Crystal Beach is the quiet and peaceful beach retreat you’re seeking. We hope you choose our home as your place to stay, but if not, we hope you have a wonderful time during your travels and with the ones you love.
Feel free to check out our other homes in the cozy Smoky Mountains and on the white sand beaches of Gulf Shores, AL!
