I would give the house and the owners additional stars! This house was in great condition and had everything we needed! I would highly recommend staying at this house! The accommodations are amazing including the shower heads, very clean kitchen and bathrooms and a large laundry room. We didn’t realize the beds were able to adjust until the last day. Our kids fed the turtles in the water next to the house while we were in the comfortable teak chairs on the porch. The backyard with grass area was perfect for our small dog. I felt very comfortable walking around the neighborhood. Again, thank you so much Angel for all the accommodations, recommendation book and hospitality!

Casa Bella is AMAZING

My family and I have been coming to Crystal beach for years. We rent a house usually for 5 days, twice a year. We never have rented the same house twice because we are always wanting to try something new. We will ABSOLUTELY rent Casa Bella again! There is not one thing about this home or our experience that I would change. Angel, you were an amazing host and truly made us feel welcome! Thank you so much! 10 STARS!!!

Large & Glam House

This cabin was not worth the price. It was not very clean, white couches were very stained. For the price I expected much more. also the amenities listed were decieving. it said they provided linens, paper towels, TP. there was one towel per guest for all week and no paper towels and one roll tp per bathroom. We had to go buy towels. The beds were not comfortable and the Master bed was horrible. The sheets provided were cheap and uncomfortable. for the price I expected a clean, great comfortable experience. Also, if you leave a welcome gift the food items in it need to be fresh. I almost threw up when I dug into the bag of popcorn. It was so old it tasted like cabinet.

It almost sounds like you stayed at a different place or maybe wanted your money back. Lol I disagree with just about everything you wrote and have many, many guests (many diff sites) have raved about Casa Bella with ear perfect reviews. Nevertheless, I am truly sorry you did not enjoy your accommodations.

About the host

Hosted by Angel

Host profile image
We are originally from Orange, Texas, and now live about 30 minutes from Crystal Beach. Nearing retirement, we decided the beach is where we wanted to spend our extra time. We love to travel, and when we are at the beach, we like that same resort-style feeling. We decorated as if we were on a fancy beach house on the other side of the world, except in Texas!! We hope that each and every guest loves it as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

We chose this neighborhood for its quiet and peaceful atmosphere. The location is also a plus, because it is a quick car, or golf cart drive to stores and restaurants. The neighborhood is quite beautiful and has beach access. If I had to rent in Crystal Beach, THIS LOCATION is where I would want to be.

What makes this property unique

Casa Bella is a showstopper. However, the way it looks isn't what makes it unique. The tranquility of its decor, paired with the location of the house near swimming families turtles make this a perfect getaway to be at all day, even if never going onto the beach. The short 3 minute walk onto the beach is just icing on the cake! The sunsets on the west side of the deck are out of this world!
