Heaven on earth
Absolutely beautiful home. Zane was a pleasure to deal with. Fenced yard was perfect for our fur babies. The lift is a game changer for moving luggage. We will book this property again.

Beautiful get together!
Loved it. 2nd visit here. Everything is nice, organized & clean.We had a wonderful time with family from Laredo, TX. Others came to visit during the day. Weather was chilly so we rented a golf cart to ride on beach so everyone could enjoy. Would love to stay again in late summer so we can enjoy water. ..Efren & Nereida

Perfect Location
We loved the site...just between the main road and beach. Photos of sunrises and sunsets were spectacular. Our view of the beach, only 20 steps from the house, was stunning. We viewed dolphins swimming in the waters right off the beach along with birds feeding and flying by. The shell combing on the beach was beyond expectations. It seems the house provided us everything we needed except food. They even had a can of bug spray and so glad we had it because the mosquitos on the beach and under the house were really bad due to the rain they had recently. Beds were comfortable as was everything in the house. Very clean. Hosts were so responsive and answered all our questions. The lift was so wonderful to use for moving our items from and to the car. We would love to stay there again...and as soon as we can. Those sunrises and sunsets were such blessings.

Always fabulous!
Zane and Tracy make Bolivar the best destination to relax, absorb the ocean breezes, the sunrises and sunsets, and endless beach walks. This property is perfectly located, well appointed, and so comfortable. This is the ONLY place we stay on Bolivar Peninsula…so looking forward to the next one…thanks, y’all!!

Host profile image
We're from DFW, we love this house and visit anytime we can! Hosting is amazing, we treat people the way we want to be treated and strive to make your stay as fun and comfortable as possible.

Why they chose this property

Crystal Beach is much quieter and slower than the Galveston beach. We love it for the privacy

What makes this property unique

The Beach is literally a few steps from the house! The fence is great for pups and kids giving you that extra level of peace of mind. Just go outside and enjoy the view!
