Getaway Gulf–Walk to Beach–Sleeps 24–Light & Bright–Multiple King Beds–In Town

IT’S A GREAT DAY TO BE AT THE BEACH!!! BEACH!!! Spend it in Getaway Gulf — a light, bright, and beautiful home in town on Mary Ann Street, just a short walk to the beach and close to everything Crystal Beach offers. The soaring ceilings, large windows, and open layout make the entire home feel welcoming the moment you walk in.

The main level features a spacious kitchen and dining area to the right and a large living room to the left with two couches, a love seat, two padded chairs, and a TV. Down the hall are a closet, a stackable washer and dryer, a full bathroom, the master king suite with an ensuite bathroom, two additional king bedrooms with a Hollywood‑style bathroom, and a bunk room with two full‑over‑full bunk beds.

Upstairs is an open commons area with four queen beds, a TV, a table with four chairs, and an additional king bedroom with a bathroom that also opens to the commons area.

Outside, guests enjoy a covered upstairs deck with two loungers, two high‑back chairs with drink holders, and a table with four chairs. Under the house is a shaded gathering area with a picnic table, three tables with four chairs each, and a charcoal grill.

Parking is available in front of the house, under the house, and on the lot we own next door to the right of the home behind Ibis Isle, another home we own. No parking is allowed on the street at any of our houses.

Getaway Gulf is perfect for families, groups, and beach lovers who want a beautiful, spacious home close to everything Crystal Beach offers.
