    We enjoyed our weekend at this beautiful beach home. It was clean, well equipped and accurately depicted in listing. The location was fabulous as it was a very short walk to the beach access point and in a quiet neighborhood. We had a wonderful time and would highly recommend to others! Thank you!!

    The description of the home is spot on, it’s a cozy, nicely decorated family home with anything you could possibly need. My family came for a short break following a death in the family looking for peace and quiet. The neighbors were so nice and the neighborhood was pretty quiet and peaceful. The beach is a short walk away and it’s also clean and quiet. The hammocks were a hit. My daughter used the information in the very helpful welcome book to Hearn about seashells. We found good food from the recommended restaurants.

    It was good. Bring mosquito treatment. We had to go spend 150 on mosquito spray, treatment and candles to not get mauled by mosquitos. They were terrible. House was in good spot by the beach and good condition.

    The house was on a quiet street so close to the beach. The house was spacious and clean. I appreciated the communication with the owner.. Very quickly responded when I had questions. My dogs loved staying here with us too! Everything you need is available in case you forgot something. Would definitely stay here again!

    The home was clean, well equipped and ideal for us. The home owner was responsive and quick to respond to our needs. The neighborhood was very quiet and the beach within easy walking distance. The TV was adequate but service disrupted at times. We would suggest an update of the info on local restaurants etc as this was out dated. Coffee pot was not functional. We enjoyed our stay and will definitely come again. Thank you.

    The location was great, right around corner to beach. The owner was very friendly and quick to respond to any questions or issues, you could tell they work hard to be great host. House was very spacious, plenty of sleeping room, two restrooms was great, for multiple people showering. There was plenty of supplied products for showering, hand washing, cleaning, and laundry. All rooms had tv with roku and/or HULU DISNEY PLUS. with wifi allowed live TV channels. Lots of family games, kids toys, several areas for gathering outside and for kids to play as well as toys supplied for kids, and beach toys also. Everything and then some you may need in kitchen for cooking and prepping meals. Plenty of towels, blankets, and bed linens. There was only three things that caught my attention, for fixing. Dvd player in living room seemed to have a dvd stuck in it so couldn't use it. The outdoor bug zappers, we're so full they weren't really doing thier job but that does come with the territory especially the mosquitos which are very bad. There was only one other issue, some things just happen and can't be helped but, the ac quit working the day after arriving, first day and night was very cool and comfortable, then second and third day we had no ac due to outside unit needing repaired. The owner was very apologetic and did come up with a way to ammend us having to endure the heat very quickly. Host was never rude out of the way or blameful. Stay here for great time.

    We had a great time here at My Crystal Beach House! The space was perfect for my little family and our small dog. The beach was walking distance (We drove up and down however) and the house supplied all the toys/games/and amenities we could ask for. Check in/out was a breeze, definitely looking this place up again in the future.
