Welcome to Texas! Crystal Beach is Texas at its finest. Drive, park, barbeque, swim, fish, build sandcastles, have events, or just relax on this beautiful and convenient beach.

The beach house has everything you could need to enjoy your vacation.

The home is lifted over 9-1/2 feet off of the ground, and the entire space is a finished patio with swinging benches, rocking chairs, bar chairs, tables, and a bar with a sink. Outdoor speakers with a Bluetooth sound system, hanging string lights, and a brand new G-6 Tranquility Series 6 Person Spa make this space a paradise.

The upper decks are spacious and include sunny, shady, and even screened-in deck areas. Seating and lighting is plentiful, and you can even hear the ocean waves at the front of the neighborhood.

Walk inside to your open-concept luxury kitchen, dining, and living spaces. The kitchen is fully-equipped with everything you could possibly need to host your family or friends. The kitchen and island area seat 12 people comfortably. Small appliances not shown in pictures include a toaster and a crock pot.

The living room has comfortable seating for 8-10 people and a large Roku TV with a sound bar and a subwoofer. You’ll find board games and puzzles in the entertainment center. How about a game day, game night, or a movie night?

The master suite has a king bed, a 32” Roku TV, a ceiling fan, and solid wood furniture with built-in accent lighting. This bedroom features an en-suite bathroom with granite countertops, a river stone-floored walk-in shower and a large walk-in closet. You’ll find extra towels and blankets, as well as a box fan, and first aid kit in the closet.

Bedroom 2 has a queen bed, a 32” smart TV, a ceiling fan, and solid wood furniture. The closet has extra blankets, a box fan, and a roll-away bed.

A Jack-and-Jill bathroom connects bedroom 2 and bedroom 3. The bathroom features granite countertops and a large shower / bath combo with glass doors.

Bedroom 3 has a bunk bed (twin over full) with a twin trundle, a 32” Roku TV, a ceiling fan, and solid wood furniture. In the closet you will find extra blankets and a toy chest with some goodies for the younger kids.

Bedroom 4 has 2 bunk beds (twin over fulls), with a 32” smart TV featuring Chromecast and Apple AirPlay. This bedroom has an en-suite half bath and a dedicated mini-split HVAC unit. Bedroom 4 is on ground level separate from the rest of the home, and has its own private exterior entrance.

The laundry room in the master bathroom has a full sized washer and dryer, and an iron and ironing board.

The garage has a stand-up deep freezer and an additional refrigerator. We have an honor system set up for the deep freezer where we keep (10) 10 pound bags of ice ready for guests at all times. This allows you to have ice for your entire stay without having to run to The Big Store (less than 1 mile away). Please do not use the ice if you’re unable to refill it before your departure.

The garage also features 12+ beach chairs that you are welcomed to bring to the beach, and a number of games and entertainment options for use at the property.

There is a private outdoor shower with hot and cold water to rinse off after coming back from the beach, before getting in the spa, or just for enjoying a solid outdoor shower.

We have a dog run! Your dog (30 pounds or less) can roam the entire upstairs patio space and take the stairs down to a fenced-in grass yard.

We work hard to maintain a place that you and yours can enjoy. Come stay with us and indulge in the beach life!

Where to begin...the property owners are great. Very accommodating with very quick responses even while they were on vacation. The cabin is just perfect. So cozy.

This was the perfect getaway for my girl to have a fun sleepover with her friends at the beach. We sang songs, hand some junk food, watched movies, had more junk food, and she was able to read letters from friends and family that cherished her 18 years on a beautiful patio. Thank you so much for letting us stay in your beautiful home! We will be back!!

Beautiful home, great location!
The house was beautiful! Great location to big store and only a few rows back from the beach. Very clean and owners were very responsive. The “4th” bedroom is what looks to be a second garage converted to a room and is separate from the of the home. It would’ve been nice to know that beforehand because we had small children staying with us, but would still stay here again!
