Great House Steps From the Beach
This was a beautiful home with comfy beds just a little walk to the beach. They thought of lots of things other vacation properties do not. Highly recommend!

Beautiful and great location
We had an amazing time. The house is so cute, very homely and comfortable. Had everything we needed. Great location to the beach and no obstructions to sit on the porch and watch the waves. The host was very easy to communicate with and made our stay worry free. Definitely will be going back.

July 4th weekend
We loved the property. The exterior photos don’t do it justice. A few things we noticed-that can be improved for the next guests. Sofas need to be vacuumed under the cushions-crumbs left behind. Kitchen floor was not as clean as it could’ve been-crumbs and dirt in corners. Some lamps lacked light bulbs. One bathroom had 1/2 roll of toilet tissue and the other 2 bathrooms had ZERO toilet tissue. No extras anywhere. The freezer compartment of frig did NOT keep food frozen. Ice cream was liquid! Detailed instructions are needed for access to property. Electronic lock would not open without intense pressure on the door-same with locking up.We had to call host for help. She did respond right away! Downstairs A/C unit was always about 5 degrees warmer than thermostat setting. Upstairs worked great! Small upstairs bathroom had no electric outlet. Kitchen was well equipped. Location of house is great-not beachfront but good views. We loved the outdoor areas! Great outdoor furniture too! Saving the info as we may want to book again! Thank you!

Amazing and relaxing place
We were looking for a relaxing place to get away and be able to go the beach. This place was perfect! We really enjoyed how close it was to the beach. And everyone in our large family (6 people) had a place they could hang out.
incredibly fast communication from the host. And answered all my questions, no matter how trivial.
We are already looking forward to booking this place again.

Idyle Seabird stay
The house was perfect for our family weekend away!
House was clean and there were plenty of towels and household items for us to use. Cozy, beachy decor and lots of windows for a great view! Rooms were a good size, as were the bathrooms. We did not use the new bar but did look at it and it would be great for entertaining. Great location for a bite to eat out or a quick trip for groceries or a quick walk to beach!!
Communication with the owner/manager was easy and her responses were very quick. I felt like her staff went out of their way to help correct any problems we had to the best of their ability.
The beach was very crowded and full of vehicles driving, so you need to be extra watchful if you have little ones. Plenty of sand and water was great.;
We did have some issues with fireworks going off late at night which was hard for little ones but that should not take away from the house itself.

Exactly as advertised!!!
This Crystal Beach property was exactly as advertised!!!! Our group wanted to get one more beach vacation in prior to school starting. This property was well appointed and easily fit our two families of eight total.
We were able to prepare meals for the family in the well appointed kitchen. All bedrooms had comfortable beds and bedding. There were plenty of TVs, which was nice for the teens to break away from the parents to enjoy some time together.
It is very close walk to the beach, and the owner was very responsive to a couple questions we had.
We will return to this property on our next trip to Crystal Beach!!!

Great cabin for a multiple family stay. Easy beach access. Bedrooms are nice and spacious. Having 3 bathrooms was super nice. Had a little mix up at check in with the housekeeping, but the owner called and took care of it promptly. Perfect weekend!
