Livin' Lobster - New, Near Beach🌊🏖 , Sleeps 8, Pet Friendly🐶, 📍Central Location
BRAND NEW 3/2 beachside home in the Sandpiper subdivision in Crystal Beach. Private beach access is a quick 5 minute walk! It's perfect for families to experiencing the fresh ocean breezes and when everyone returns from the beach, head to the outdoor shower to rinse off before the family chef creates a delicious meal using pots/pans inside or firing up the charcoal grill.
Outdoor space includes plenty of seating around bar/firepit to enjoy the games and watch the beautiful sunset and sunrise.
The Space Our 3- bedroom 2-bath custom built home is perfect for families and friends and can sleep 8 people comfortably.
Our kitchen is a highlight of the house as we understand the best times are around food and drinks. We have several spices available, several pots and pans to use, and Instant Pot available. We also have silverware, plates/bowls, as well as different types of glassware for the perfect beverage (coffee, juice/water, martini, tiki glass). All appliances are completely new and will be there for the chef to design a beautiful meal for the family. Our home was decorated with gatherings in mind as the kitchen so the openness will enable continuous conversations, drinks, and food.
We do have high speed internet (fastest available for the peninsula) however when the peninsula gets busy, the WIFI becomes spotty. You'll have 50+ inch smart TVs to catch up on your favorite shows after a beach day and board games for fun.
From essentials wise, we supply: - Initial supply of trash bags (white and liners) - 1 roll of paper towels - 2 rolls of toilet paper per bathroom per stay - 4-6 coffee pods - Dishwasher pods - Hand soap - Laundry pods to wash up to 3 loads
If you need more, the Big Store will have all these in stock.
Exterior wise, there are patio furniture on the top deck for the whole family to enjoy breathtaking sunrise, sunset, and mid-afternoon swing on the hammock while enjoy a small sliver of the ocean. You can hear the waves crashing and relax. The lawn is also sprayed for mosquitos and bugs!
Downstairs, there's plenty of seating for the family to enjoy some cold drinks, play games (jenga, cornhole) and gather around the firepit for s'mores. The string lights elevate the environment and will be the perfect place to capture and make memories. There is also a charcoal grill available.
Before going to the beach, we have all your essentials available for you - mini cart to take essentials, cooler to keep your drinks cold, sand toys for the kiddos, and beach chairs to lounge in. We also have beach towels for the family to use.
Guest access You will have full access to the entire home, with exception to our owner’s closet. There is a smart lock on the front door which we'll provide the code to enter once it gets closer to the check in date and a key for you to use the garage and back balcony.

Excellent getaway!
We really love the set up for our family. We loved the hammock and the gated upstairs deck because of the dogs. We liked the bed and the garage. Also the cooking supplies made our cooking so much easier. The neighbors were really nice and it was close to the beach.

4th of July Getaway
The house was wonderful. It was very clean, the kitchen was very well stocked with plenty of pots, pans, dishes and a variety of appliances. The beds were comfortable and we really appreciated having TVs in every room for winding down at night. The host was so nice, easy to communicate with and really put a lot of thought into many different details of the property. Really easy access to the beach as well. We would absolutely return again.

When you just need a break!
My husband and I made a quick decision to book this house for a one night stay because our family lives are extremely busy and we just needed to get out of town for a day. Our family had a great time and were overall really happy with this property. Becky was a fantastic host. I appreciate that the home came fully stocked with kitchen/glassware and that Becky left several laminated copies of home instructions on the island bar in the kitchen (super helpful!)
The only negative things about our stay were:
The charcoal grill was dirty from the guests before us
The bunk room was significantly warmer than the rest of the house and the ceiling fan in that room was pretty dirty which made for a not-so-good night of sleep for my kids
The hanging outdoor lights downstairs tripped the breaker when plugged in so they were unusable.
There is other lighting down there so we still utilized the space but it did take away from the ambiance. (I will note that Becky was very quick to respond to my message about this though!)
Overall, we really enjoyed our stay here and I would book this property again.

We stayed at Livin' Lobster for fathers day. It was absolutely perfect. It was very clean. Easy to find and park. Becky (the owner) was very responsive and extremely helpful. The property has everything you need to enjoy your stay at the beach. I will certainly consider this place again and refer friends and family.
Thank you Becky for facilitating a perfect father's day weekend for our family.

Perfect Beach Getaway
We enjoyed our stay at the Livin’ Lobster! The property was beautiful and very comfortable. The kitchen had all the things we needed to prepare our meals. It even had an instant pot which we used! We enjoyed relaxing and visiting on the deck with the breeze keeping us comfortable. The location was a short walk to the beach. Or with a $10 parking pass bought at the Big Store, we could drive to the beach! Becky was very nice to deal with and answered all of our questions very quickly. We loved our stay in Crystal Beach at Livin’ Lobster and definitely would stay here again!

Brand new house!
Owner is super responsive and easy to work with. The house is brand new with tons of extras like beach gear, corn hole, and several coffee making options (keurig, ground coffee maker, pour over and an electric hot water kettle). Overall great experience!
