Serenity Now! Insanity Later...Seinfeld Fans: yes, you picked up on that correctly.

The house is so appropriately named as one gains a bit of serenity sitting on the deck and listening to the beach waves crash, or napping on the outdoor.. or indoor couch (wear its cold as ice) in the middle of a hot Texas day. Playing family games at the big table under the stars and soft lights, there is a lot to slow down and enjoy here.

Start at the deck:
• Ocean and Bay views
• Seating for 10+ for bird watching
• 4 captains chairs made for coffee drinking
• Wicker outdoor couch great for napping, Papa approved (he’s just
resting his eyes…)
• 10 foot - 8 chair bar height table with two 7 foot umbrellas (the big table)
Perfect for family dining

Very Pleasant Stay...
My friends and I are all women over 50, and we've been traveling together to VRBOs all over the world for the past 20 years. We found the house at Serenity Now to be lovely and well appointed, with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The beds were super comfortable, which is extremely important for women our age! The kitchen had all the cookware and gadgets we needed to prepare wonderful meals. We would definitely look to stay at Serenity Now again.

What makes this property unique

Who does not enjoy a nice golf cart ride? The best way to get around Crystal Beach in the summer months is by golf cart, not because of traffic, but just because it's fun.
Golf carts can be used on the city streets and on the beach. Golf carts cannot be used on or along the side of the main path through Crystal beach, Hwy 87. So how does one get around?
Golf carts are allowed to directly cross the Hwy. The beach and Hwy 87 run parallel to each other, so anything you would like to get to turns into a ride down the beach, then a quick ride on a local street to your destination such as restaurants and stores:
