Relaxing vacation stop

The property is well appointed, great location with plenty to do. Communication was excellent from booking all the way through check out. The hot tub was a great way to relax and vicinity to the beautiful beach combined with the golf cart made quick trips to the water easy. Everything you need to stay comfortably even with 7 people.

Great stay

Fabulous stay at the Krusty Krab. We used the golf cart for the week which made going back and forth to the beach so easy. Used the kayaks and paddle board which was a lot of fun. The kids loved the gaming system. I will say that this is one of the most well stocked rental houses I’ve ever stayed in and the hosts were super responsive. Would absolutely book again if wanting stay on the bay side.

Week of Bliss

We enjoyed our stay at the Krusty Krab, perfect location to ride golf cart for dinner, late night ice cream runs and close to public beach access. We also enjoyed having a private ramp/dock to unload our boat for the week! The home was beautiful, cleaned and fully stocked. My favorite was the coffee nook :-) Book this place, it was not disappoint!

The hosts are fantastically responsive and the cleaning service was of the best we've ever seen. We stayed for 4 nights and truly had an amazing time with zero problems. The recommendations from the hosts on things to do and places to eat were all 100% spot on. We've stayed in ocean front places in the past, but now will prefer to stay on the canals as it's wonderful! So much to do right off the dock and in the wonderful back yard. Thanks to our hosts!

Amazing getaway

Staying on the sound is ideal!! We were able to kayak, swim off the dock and take the golf cart when we wanted to hit up the beach. And the owners are sooooo responsive. Upstairs AC went out and they had someone there within 2 hours and it was fixed. We will be back!!!
