This house and location were amazing. Sheena was even better. The house sits on a small street that leads straight to beach access. Sheena provided more beach towels, kid's toys, and grown-up beach toys than we could use. 2 beach carts and loads of games for the house, as well. Her care and attention to detail was evident throughout the house and during our stay. She was very quick to respond to any question that I had, replying literally within a minute or 2 each time that I messaged. She is personable, warm, and provides a truly welcoming home. This was my first VRBO experience, and Sheena has set such a high bar that I'm afraid staying anywhere else will only lead to disappointment. We've certainly found our Crystal Beach spot.

We decided to go to Crystal Beach for a last minute short stay for Spring Break. It was the perfect house for our family of 6. The check in process was a piece of cake, thanks to the host. The home was easy to find and convenient to several places to eat and shop. Sheena offered some suggestions of places to eat and she was spot on. Tia Juanitas was great! The home is clean, comfortable, and has everything you could need to feel at home. The kids loved using a few of the sand toys to take to the beach and my husband and I appreciated the chairs provided. The beach is a super easy, pleasant walk. I absolutely recommend staying at this home and we will definitely choose this home when we return!!

Beautiful house and great location!

We rented the hosue to celebrate my sons graduation and birthday. The house was clean, roomy and beautifully decorated. The beds were comfortable and there were plenty of pillows and blankets. The amenities this house offers are top notch. Hot tub, spacious out door area, BBQ pit, and even outdoor games. We rent a beach house every year if not several times and this has been one of the best we've stayed in and definitely the best at this price point. The host was very easy to talk to and very responsive. We would definitely stay here again!

Family weekend get away

Absolutely loved this house! It was perfect for my family weekend trip! Had everything to keep everyone entertained! Beach toys for the kids, chairs for the grandparents, games and even had a ping pong table and enough room for lounging and relaxing! Definitely will be coming back again! Sheena was a godsend! She was quick and responsive for all questions and was able to accommodate a late check out with no problems! I would recommend to friends and family in the future!

The Perfect Beach Escape!

Our stay at this beach home was absolutely perfect! The house is beautifully and thoughtfully decorated in a coastal style, with all the beach and tiki amenities you could ever want. Its location, just steps from the beach, made it easy to enjoy the gorgeous surroundings.Even a rare January Texas snow day couldn’t dampen our fun! The wide, run-able sand is ideal for a morning sunrise jog, and cruising down the beach by car for the sunset is an experience not to be missed.The owner was fantastic—responsive, helpful, and genuinely caring. Whether it was answering questions, offering recommendations, or checking in during the storm, she went above and beyond to ensure we had a great stay.With so many rental options along the Texas coast, this house stands out as one you don’t want to miss. It’s truly a gem, and we can’t wait to return!

Wow! Your review truly made our day! 😊 We’re so happy to hear that you had a perfect stay and that even a rare Texas snow day couldn’t take away from the fun! Thank you for your kind words about the home and our hospitality; it was an absolute pleasure hosting you. We’d love to welcome you back anytime for more beachside memories (hopefully with a little more sunshine next time)!

Fall Weekend on the Beach

This house is amazing. We found the house very clean and exactly per the pictures. We were a party of 11 (w/ 4 kids) and all slept comfortably considering the max listed is 12. It's less than a 5 minute walk to the beach. A grocery store is just down the road. The best feature, to us, was the very large kitchen and living room. This house is PERFECT for a large group with tons of sitting inside and out to the 20 chairs in the garage you can take to the beach and the red wagon definitely helps bringing them all. There are many outdoor toys and shovels / buckets. The grill was in great condition, and there is an outdoor shower and sink to help get rid of the sand. A nice addition not shown are the lockable gates on top and bottom of the stairs, and we could let out toddler roam the top deck without much worry.

Thank you for your thoughtful review! I’m so happy the house worked so well for your group and that you enjoyed some of the extras we provide for a fun beach trip. It’s great to hear the lockable gates on the stairs made things easier for your family too! I hope we can host you again soon for another memorable stay.

Sheena was an amazing host! She responds to all messages quickly. The entire Beach House was very clean, beds were comfortable, outdoor spa was great, the entire house has everything you need for a wonderful beach stay. Simply walk down the street and you're at the beach. Close to a grocery store too. There's an outdoor shower, sink and amazing tiki bar!
