The house was great! Very roomy and the pool was awesome!!
Beach is pretty empty most days since you're not in a big neighborhood. Kida far from the restaurants and stores, but still ok. We had a broken bed frame when we checked in, but it was fixed right away the next morning. Pool was nice for our two little ones, 4 & 2. would be small for older kids.
Overall house is as listed. It’s on the beach, has a fenced pool, and a fire pit. Linens were waiting on us. The heating element in the dryer went out and the management company had someone out to fix it the same day. It was a great stay! Would recommend!
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 really enjoyed our stay in the Aquamarine home. There was plenty of room for the 4 of us. Kitchen was huge and seemed to have everything we needed to prepare any meal. Pool was nice but very small, we didn't use it much since it was a little early in the year. Firepit was a great touch and we used it almost every night. We tried to watch TV but there were 4 remotes and no instructions which one did what. We never figured it out. Remote location, be prepared to drive everywhere but if you want peace and quiet then this is the place for you.

Reviewer Comments: Amazing home with plenty of space... nice pool right on the beach... our large family had a great time with our get away.. kitchen nice and has all the things needed to cook for your family including an Air Fryer oven!!
The house was a nice place and has plenty of potential. However, many things need updating. The washer and dryer are rusted. The beds are in need of new linens. The couches, while cute, are very worn. A lot of the dishes were dirty from previous use. The outdoor shower was non working as the handles have rusted off. The pool was cute but the lights don't work and there are quite a few lights out around the entire house. The hot water does not work at the kitchen sink. I think with a little TLC this place could be super cute. We did enjoy the location but if we were to rent on Crystal Beach again, we will look elsewhere.
This is a hands-off realty co., not a host that cares about your experience, so don’t expect much. You’re just the next to stay in their loose screw on a messed-up assembly line. Interactions make u feel like you’re an inconvenience. You start by traveling 8mi out of your way from property to pick key up from their office (unless you’re coming from Galveston). We arrived & raised hurricane blinds to see the view but the living rm one was broken. We spent the whole week with 1/2 ocean view blocked. Our “linen pkg” we paid for was on floor in clear trash bags. Clean, but self-serve. We go to put them on the beds, & the pillows and bed protectors had dark flakes and stains on them. We had to wash the bed protectors ( luckily most stains came out) & buy new pillows from a dollar store. Wished we hadn’t seen the disgusting mattresses underneath. Too. Much. DNA. Their pillows, shams, bedspreads, & furniture covers aren’t washed either. Bring your own bedding. You’ll have to make your own bed anyway. It’s a lot to deal with after you’ve traveled all day, not to mention ridiculous considering what you pay. Luckily only 1 roach was found in kitchen & 1 unidentified bug in a bed. Could’ve been much worse, considering other reviews. SOME surfaces were clean to the eye, just don’t look hard, open drawers, or look under furniture. If u drop a penny, leave it. Ignorance is bliss. Pool was cloudy most of our stay. It wasn’t maintained well. No outdoor lights by or in pool to swim at night, in the pool for 4. Six, if u just stand up still. Outdoor shower was rusted. Didn’t work. Dryer is very rusty, disgusting, & took forever to dry a load. We only used it out of necessity. On surface, it’s pretty. Decorated nicely. The kitchen was well-stocked. Deck has great views of the ocean. Tons of shells. Great fishing. No dolphins visible. Local store with necessities. Not much extra activities unless you ride a ferry to Galveston-fun in theory but ferries non-consistent so you may cross in 30 mins or it may be 2 hours. But Galveston was great for a day trip if beach doesn’t hold your attention. Driving is allowed on beach, there are almost always fishing lines from the shore, and beach isn’t private, so watch your kids. That being said, it was a nice area. We just won’t rent this house from these owners again. It’s great that it’s pretty to look at in pics, but I’d rather not have to stay awake at night thinking about what we’re all having to sleep or sit on.

We really enjoyed our stay and the amenities of the home. the fenced in private pool was a huge value for us. Great kitchen--good for hosting a big family meal and layout out of the floor plan was great for family gathering. We do wish the floors had been cleaner and yard/lawn had been more maintained especially in the pool yard...lots of bare spots in the grass and crumbs in the yard. But otherwise a great place that we will be eager to return to in the future-
