We stayed here on a windy weekend and although the weather was disappointing, the place was great as we could still relax and look out at the gorgeous view. Mike was great to deal with and our pooch was welcomed.
Everything is super close and eats and coffee were really good too.

A truly beautiful and comfortable stay. The house is the perfect size for us as a couple with our fur babies. Everything you need for an easy getaway is there. The location is perfect - walk across to the wharf for fishing, pub, cafe, kiosk, IGA all next door.

Perfect holiday location
Thankyou Mike & Trish for making Crystal Blue Apartment so welcoming and comfortable. A beautiful, clean, well equipped modern space, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay, watching the ocean views and the world go by from the first floor balcony. Port Vincent is a lovely town with all the amenities we needed and with this superb accommodation our holiday was perfect. We look forward to staying again one day!

Crystal Blue is a lovely apartment , plenty of room and light, excellent fittings and as was the case when we last stayed we enjoyed the location, the view, the open air decking and the apartment as a whole. However a little disappointed at the lack of welcome - it would have been nice to have perhaps a bowl of fruit or chocolates or a welcome note to greet us but there was nothing of that sort, just 4 coffee pods, small carton of long life milk, a little bit of dried up instant coffee in a jar and some very old looking tea bags - disappointing. And I would say this was not the case when we last stayed - it was extremely welcoming and friendly. However overall it is a lovely place to stay and hopefully a bit of thought can go into a welcome to guests.
Location delight by day with a refrigeration unit symphony by night
Thought the location and setting was a 10/10. The living areas and the outdoor entertaining area were relaxing and picturesque, with great views of the wharf, town and beach landscape. Plenty of linen and utensils supplied. Downsides were a few…. The steep staircase was difficult to traverse easily, and lacked safety gates for night time for someone in unfamiliar surroundings. Barbecue was not maintained with starter inoperative and lighter in kitchen was out of gas - luckily its walking distance to the IGA for us to buy a new lighter. Would also have liked to have had laundry facilities for a week long stay. Also not something that can be easily addressed but the rooftop refrigeration units for the IGA cycled constantly through the night making first nights sleep a poor experience. Overall thought this was a great apartment stay primarily for the location and views.

The bed was nice and comfy.
Comfy bed fantastic location and wonderful views. Appliances were dirty but bathroom was clean
Door to bedroom was awkward and small room but fine for sleeping
The blind in the bedroom was not blackout.
Too much light in the morning
Could smell cooking from underneath neighbours not very pleasant
Otherwise a great little place.
Highly recommend this if you can find a booking you won’t regret it , we just lazed about the place with our pooch soaking up the views n walking along the beach
