Great property in prime location to beach! As mentioned in the instructions, there is some movement that can be felt, especially when the winds kick up. The only thing I can think of to improve this house would be an elevator to get groceries and bags up and down:). We enjoyed our stay.

Perfect location with beautiful views of the ocean. We spent much time on the deck watching the ocean and the people and the pelicans and just relaxing. The access to the beach was super easy and steps away. Unlike other listings in this area this house is truly on the beach with ocean views and direct access. Fortunately we live close enough that I could come check before I booked and while there were 5-7 homes we liked showing they are on the beach (map pin included) this was the only one that was truly there. The house was clean and comfortable. Bedding and linens were good quality. Beds were moderately comfortable. The kitchen was stocked well with dishes, pots and pans and a coffee pot. You need to bring with you: all spices, oils, pantry staples, bath soap, shampoo, conditioner, beach toys, beach towels, and coffee. House is stocked with coffee filters, bath towels, wash clothes, hand soap, dish soap, dishwasher detergent, and laundry detergent. Overall we loved our stay, and would love to return to this house in the future!

Thank you for your very kind words. I appreciate you mentioning the cleanliness of the house, the honesty of the location and the quality of the products we use to stock the house. We know hard-working people come to the beach, looking for a peaceful worry free time and we do our best to ensure they enjoy their stay. I also want to thank you for leaving the house in such great condition. I have wonderful guests and I appreciate the care they use when they depart. I hope you return. You are always welcome.

About the host

Hosted by Margene Walz

Host profile image
Hi, Welcome to my home – My name is Margene Walz. I am the owner and am thrilled to show you around. Many years ago I moved to California from Nebraska but have always missed the mid-western values and hospitality. Through the advice of my brother Mike Walz of Crystal Beach's Walz Family Builders I seized the opportunity to sell my California condominium and built on Bolivar. I appreciate the area and the hospitality. It is like coming back to my roots. I am very pleased to be able to share my home with you. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Why they chose this property

Since my brother owns a home and a business in Crystal Beach I have visited many times. Each time I fell more and more in love with the area. I decided to invest my retirement money here and I can't wait to share this peaceful stress-free beach with you.

What makes this property unique

The front deck is 16' deep - 8' is covered and 8' is uncovered. Guests are able to enjoy the shade, read, sip a glass of wine or beer or tan in the sunshine. The deck which wraps around 3 sides of the house has private doors from the Master bedroom and Guest bedroom. Each has its own romantic personal space. But the most impressive thing about this home is the spectacular beach front view. The family area under the house includes an enclosed shower, bar and 2 built-in picnic tables. It is a wonderful area that will accommodate many family members and guests. Plus it offers you all the comforts of home with the additional bonus of hearing and watching the surf.
