Top Crystal Beach Hotel Reviews

The Henderson Beach Resort & Spa

10/10 Excellent

"The only thing I didn’t like was both days at the beach after we reserved an umbrella and chairs…we had to wait 30-35minutes for towels. "

Private Pool, Carriage House, and Near the Beach

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was better than expected. There were a few minor problems. The water heater kept turning off. We had to relight the pilot light several times, the outside grill propane was low and well I can’t remember the third item. However I called them into the maintenance folks and they were very gracious and professional. I would happily stay there again. "

Brand New Luxury HGTV Dream Beach House | Short walk to the beach

10/10 Excellent

"Thank you for a wonderful stay. The website pictures were very accurate. Great location, close to beach, restaurants and shopping. Not a complaint but the kitchen stools were a bit tricky for the little ones. Thanks again for a wonderful time,"

GORGEOUS FIRST FLOOR BEACHFRONT CONDO ... BRAND NEW, ONE-of-a-KIND

10/10 Excellent

"Everything was just as it was listed. Owner was great to work with and was more than cordial. The only thing renters need to be aware of is you can not use personal umbrellas or pop ups as the beach area is private. Thus you must rent from the beach rental company. And of course it is pricey. If you choose to use your personal beach umbrellas you will be required to go to the public beach area."

Your own piece of paradise at THE SALTY PARROT!

10/10 Excellent

"We enjoyed our stay at this property! It is close enough to walk to the beach and close to many other desirable things to do. The pool area was very nice and wasnt overcrowded. The house was well stocked with kitchen items as well as with many baby items including an umbrella stroller, high chair, and pack and play. They also had beach toys if needed. The owner was very quick and easy to comminicate with! Our only concern was we thought the 5th bedroom was an enclosed bedroom instead of the loft area at the top of the stairs with the futon. The owner was very kind when discussing this misunderstanding, making an effort to fix it!"
