This was a super easy stay! There were a few maintenance things that need to be addressed such as the flooring in the kitchen and master bed room or the toilet near the kitchen (it wouldn’t stop running) but for the price point we paid it was totally live-able! We spent all the time at the beach. Keep in mind the neighborhood that the house is in does not have vehicle beach access but it does have cart access. The host was easily reached through VRBO. The only inconvenient thing was when I got there I didn’t have service and I couldn’t get into the house right away because I needed the code. But we were able to use my aunts phone to call the company.

Wonderful Beach House

Crystal Cove is a great beach house with lots of space for gathering and plenty of beds for sleeping! The kitchen is perfect and provided everything we needed to prepare meals. We loved all the deck space and grilling area. This is a great location, short walk to to the beach and stores/gas stations need by. The owner was easy to reach for questions and checked on us to see if we needed anything. Highly recommend this place!

Beach trip

Had a great time. Check in was easy. Host responded quickly to all questions. Loved having 2 living rooms! No direct beach access by car but we had a golf cart so it wasn’t a problem. Enjoyed our trip!

Check in was very simple. We got in late, so it was nice having a fully set up kitchen to get food made and the kids in bed. The beach is only a five minute walk away, but I would seriously consider renting a golf cart. The main level was great for family meals and hanging out. And coffee on the deck in the big chairs was one of my favorite things to do.

Thank you for your kind words! I’m so glad the check-in process was smooth and that the kitchen helped make your late arrival easier—especially with little ones. It’s great to hear you enjoyed the main level for family time and those relaxing coffee moments on the deck. A golf cart is definitely a great idea for easy beach trips! We'd love to host you again anytime.

Kiddo’s Friend Trip

Perfect stay for our teenage kids and their friends. We adults had our room/bathroom on the main floor and the kids had their own floor with living area and bathroom! Literally could not have asked for a better set up and location! The host’s communication was excellent and the property was superb! Highly recommend!

Plenty of space for everyone and a short walk to the beach which was nice due to us having our grandchildren with us too. Tyler was super helpful and answered our messages super quick.
