We had a great family stay here! The location was perfect with easy access to the beach, which made it so convenient for our family of five to enjoy time by the water.We really liked the layout of the home and found the accommodations comfortable and well-suited for our family. The golf cart was such a fun bonus—we loved cruising the beach and changing out the fun, quirky flags along the way.The host was an excellent communicator and very helpful, even sharing great recommendations for local bars and restaurants. Overall, we had a wonderful stay and would definitely recommend this property to others looking for a fun and relaxing getaway in Port Bolivar.

The house was very nice and well equipped. We did not spend too much time at the house because we were in Crystal Beach for a wedding at another beach house nearby. Most of our meals and activities were at the other house so we basically slept and showered here. However I would consider returning to this property in the future. It had easy access to the beach and a decent view of the Gulf. I really liked the cozy screened porch to have my morning coffee. If you are someone who likes to party the under house area has a great tiki bar set up. Somehow the VRBO app did not send the check-in instructions ahead of time, but the host agreed to communicate with me directly to make sure we did not have problems when we arrived. We discovered the internet had been knocked out due to a storm that passed thru the day before we got there. The TV service is all streaming so we could not watch anything or connect our devices. The host was very accessible and worked very hard to get someone to come to the house to reset the equipment. When that did not work, he paid a fee for the internet provider to expedite repairing the service. He also allowed us to use the golf cart at no cost for the inconvenience. We appreciated that he went the extra mile to make our stay as best as possible. I would recommend this property for a nice vacation at Crystal Beach.
