Bed Bugs

The location of the property was amazing! As for the apartment it self it needs a good clean and a face lift! My poor girls were bitten by bed bugs, you could literally see them crawling around, the mattresses. It became a very unpleasant stay!

Disappointing

Crystal Beach 42. Very worn, dated and in great need for an overhaul. Privacy screens rusted from elements so shutting and opening a "hold ya breath" situation. No plugs for sinks. Metal surrounds on sliding window detached so extremely hesitant to open for air flow. 2 seater lounge for a 3 bedroom apartment didnt quite cut it. Location amazing. Amazing views. Residence very friendly. Property management promised a representative would visit with plugs .. 5 day stay .. never came.

Location on beachfront was great, however unit was not clean, thick layer of dust on everything, empty milk carton left on coffee table, hair in grate in shower & under bin liner the bin was dirty & smelly. Looked like no cleaning had been done between the last people leaving & us arriving.

Zero hospitality

Having to rent bed linen & towels, told to bring own dish liquid etc - for a one week stay. Nothing in the pantry except a small amount of dubious olive oil. No a/c or ceiling fans. 2 portable fans worked - one had to have its spokes bent into position. Unimpressed.

Amazing family stay

Couldn’t be happier with our stay. The unit is perfectly located right on the beach and catches the sea breezes from all directions which made the December stay surprisingly comfortable. Awesome pool and heated spa below which the kids loved, and the bike track out front made afternoon rides a delight. The complex (at least at Christmas) had a really laid back family feel which we and the kids loved. Already booked for next year!

Perfect location at a great price. We loved our stay at Crystal Beach Apartments with a pool and spa along with direct access to the beach. No need for fans or air-conditioning as the constant sea breeze was amazing.

fantastic value!

We really enjoyed everything about this apartment building, location was brilliant (absolute beach front), facilities in the apartment met all of our needs, heated pool and jacuzzi was brilliant and balconies to enjoy sunset or breakfast was worth a million dollars. Definitely would stay again. The only issue we had was the bed, could've been a little bigger (only a double).
