We have stayed at the Sundial twice and have had a great time each stay. It is a short walk to the beach and to many shopping areas and restaurants. It was only warm enough to get in the pool 2 days this time but we still enjoyed the privacy and quiet of the patio.

Crystal Beach Vacation

The private pool was a hit with our kids! We rented a golf cart & went to the beach every morning (2 minute cart ride) then came back, rinsed off in the shower on the back patio, & got in the pool. Most relaxing vacation. Very convenient access to local grocery store & shops as well.
