About this house rental
You Must be 25 Years of Age or Older to Rent.
This uniquely designed beachfront home has beautiful Gulf views. If you want beachfront, you can't get much closer than this! Don't forget your furry family members. Crystal by the Ocean is pet-friendly with a $200 pet fee. This two-story home has three bedrooms, a guest bathroom on the main level, and deck access. The bunk room with twin/twin bunk beds is ideal for young kids with kids' books, games, and TV. Bedroom two has a queen bed, and bedroom three has a king bed. All of these have TVs and great beach views. On the upper level, you will find a small open-concept kitchen, a living room with a TV, a dining area, a half bath, and deck access. Wake up to the sound of the surf, sip coffee while watching the sunrise over the water, and spend evenings on the deck as the sky turns golden. The bedroom on this level features a queen bed, TV, and an attached bath with a step-in shower. In the living room, there is a futon that folds out to accommodate 2 guests. This home has WIFI to stream your favorite TV shows and movies. Just enter the password information provided in a picture frame near the TV. The deck on this level is large and wraps around the side of the home. This is where you will definitely want to spend your mornings watching the glorious sunrise over the Gulf! Downstairs, you will find ample space on the concrete-covered area to grill on the charcoal grill, gather around the large picnic table while waiting for a delicious meal, or watch the kids play. When looking at the Gulf will no longer suffice, you are literally steps away from the sandy shoreline and relaxing Gulf waters! After a fun-filled day at the beach, rinse away all the sand and salt in the outdoor shower. You and your family will never want to leave the views you'll find at Crystal by the Ocean. Whether you’re here for relaxation or adventure, Crystal By The Ocean offers the ultimate beachside escape.

I loved my stay here. The view was one you can't even describe. You just have to see it, pictures dont do justice. Nayomi, the host, was amazing whenever we had questions. She always responded immediately and solved any issues that day. We had sent the lift up without making sure the door wasn't shut and it got stuck. (That was embarassing). She had them out within 24 hours to fix it. There were no houses so close you felt you could reach out the window and touch it, which was wonderful. We were just a few blocks from The Big Store. If this is your first visit this store is a must. I just can't complain about anything about this trip. I just got off the phone with Sarah, housekeeper. I left some important shirts. She will be mailing them to me. Everyone just went above and beyond to make my stay perfect. I was there November 13 - 20th by myself then 20th - 30th my brother and sister in law joined me. My sister used to come with me. She passed a year ago. This house was the perfect place to find some peace and just breathe. We will be back.

Let me first say that the view is what you are paying for it is great, even though it was hard to see out of the living room windows for dirt or something on them. However, the inside is average at best, but what did us in was the Roach infestation! We could not eat there or cook there. We sat our food on the counter and roaches attacked! When we told the owner she was very concerned and even had an exterminator there the next day, but sadly an infestation as the exterminator called it does not go away with one spraying or 3 as she said this was the 3rd time she has had to have them come out. She also said that she would send us a bit of money for drinks, but we never saw that. As the exterminator told us, do not use anything dish without washing. We washed nothing. FYI. I wish for everyone that I did not have to write this. Good Luck!
