We have quiet hours of 10:00 pm to 8:00 am. \~Our water heater will only serve hot water to one fixture at a time. The power grid in Crystal Beach is not the greatest, so the lights may also flicker when hot water is being used. If that’s going to make or break your vacation, I would consider another location. \~Person booking must be at least 24 and have government issued photo ID on file with the booking platform. \~Smoking or vaping in the house or on the decks is not allowed. \*Elevator use needs host authorization and is not ADA compliant.

Great location with extremely easy golf cart & pedestrian access to beach. Clean, well stocked, and CHILD FRIENDLY. Garage could use a little more lighing since there is ping pong & other games, but was still useable. Appreciated the beach toys and other beach items. Polite, professional & efficient communication by host. Appreciated the unsolicited offer of delayed departure due to local road flooding. Only issue was the deadbolt lock did not work correctly with the retrieve & use key from lockbox. ##### Tony W.

Communication with owner very easy with quick responses which I very much appreciate. The check in and check out was easy. Location is literally walking distance to the beach. Having use of an elevator is what made our trip as I was traveling with my elderly parents who don’t do steps so easily anymore and of course pet friendly. Unfortunately the weather was not on our side this time but we were able to do some beachcombing for sea glass shells and sharks teeth unfortunately still haven’t master finding a sharks tooth yet. We always enjoy coming to crystal beach! Thank you again for sharing your home with us! ##### cindy r. Stayed 6 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cheri B.

We were traveling with some people of limited mobility, and the elevator inside the house made our trip possible. We were able to hear the waves from our balcony, and the walkover to the beach was very close. We had fun playing ping pong, and appreciated beach chairs and an umbrella. Joanne was very pleasant to work with, and hopefully we will be back! ##### Sherri L. Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Susan E.

We will go back. ##### Susan E. Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kimberly N. Jul 12, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Excellent property. Literal 1 min walk to beach. Access by golf cart or side by side but not by car. The house is great, A/C worked well. Elevator was a plus. Would definitely stay there again! ##### Kimberly N. Stayed 4 nights in Jul 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Cassie S.

We’ve stayed at a few houses in the same area and this one is my favorite so far! We had everything we needed. The beach toys and beach chairs were so helpful! So glad we didn’t have to bring those along with us on our trip. Can’t wait to come back! ##### Cassie S. Stayed 4 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Barbara Y.

We needed the elevator and it worked perfectly. ##### Barbara Y.

The place was exactly as described and then some. We had a pleasurable stay and experience and would definitely re-book! Thank you for our stay and the memories we got to make as a family. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Sep 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Tara P. Aug 30, 2023 Liked: Check-in, communication, location Disliked: Cleanliness #### Great location but not impressed with the house Disappointed about the AC. We had miserable nights it was so hot. The extra fans did not help at all. The towels and blankets smelled like they were not dried completely. Just not a comfortable stay... ##### Tara P.
