Disliked: Location
The railing obstructed view a good bit from bedroom. Biggest issue was the bird poop everywhere in the front porch and sand all over steps when we arrived. Access to beach is a little too accessible. A car was parked right in front of the beach house with someone sitting in their car near the public bathroom the whole stay. Made us a bit uncomfortable. We ended up leaving a day early.

Kitchen fully stocked with everything needed. My only wish would be more than 2 extra trash bags they were tiny. Otherwise everything was great! Watched some stellar sunrises. Everyone had a great time. Thank you for a much needed family get away!

Sweet 16

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We went for a Sweet 16. Relatives flew in to celebrate. Wish the weather would’ve been better but that not control-able. It was still an amazing get away. We ran out of toilet paper the last night we were there and couldn’t find any. No biggie. I generally bring my own supply but forgot this time while packing. Still a 5-Star stay. Hope to rent again in July 2025

Crystal Beach on the beach

Rating Details: The property manager was adequately helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: The rental property had some issues. The locked door in the kitchen for staff was unlocked and of course someone in our group locked belongings inside it, so we had to call maintenance. Also the cappuccino machine, dish washer, and also washer didn't work properly. Crystal Beach was great, the property had some issues that needed to be addressed.
