3 min walk to the beach! Arcade Games and Outdoor fun!

Escape the routine, find your peace, and create memories that will be talked about for years to come. Let future conversations start with "remember that time at Crystal Beach..." Coffee while enjoying the cool sea breeze, afternoon tea, and cold refreshments with the smell of BBQ coming off a hot charcoal grill. Nostalgia kicking in with the sound of vintage arcade games while still having access to modern amenities in every room. Welcome to your next best vacation.

We really enjoyed staying here with the family. A 3 minute walk to the beach was perfect. The kids loved to play the arcade in the living room when we had downtime. I had a couple questions at the beginning of our stay and Shaun was quick to respond. Would definitely stay here again!

Beautiful home by the beach

Beautiful home just a short walk from the beach. We loved the location and the hospitality of the host. If we were not outside enjoying ladder ball and the tiki bar, we were upstairs enjoying the pac man game. Great place that I hope to stay again.
