Beach get away

Great property. Bed was uncomfortable. But we stayed on the beach most of the time. Lots of space if you have lots of kids. Bunk bed, trundle bed and 3 couches.

Run Down!!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was very dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I do not recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We visit Crystal Beach several times a year. This was not a cheap rental. However it was very run down. It needs to be painted. The bed was awful. We slept on the couch. The restroom was very out dated. It said it had a grill. The grill was a $25 grill from Walmart that was filthy and rusted out. Just not the experience I was expecting when I get sometime away from home. I will say the people at Swedes were super nice!!!

Great stay for our family of 7!

We had a great stay! Would definitely rent this beach house again. It slept all 7 of us comfortably. Very close access to the beach; we walked and drove down to the beach. The view is great and quiet area. Golf cart rental accross the street if needed. No washer/dryer but they are in the process of adding that. Full kitchen and we loved that there's a Keurig and bbq pit! The kids (all 5) really liked this beach house. Rental was easy! Great experience. Thank you and God bless!

Liked: Property conditions & facilities, communication
Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
I really liked the location—it was just a 2-minute walk from the beach, which was amazing. We also enjoyed the outdoor shower, which was a nice touch. That said, the cleanliness of the house was a major issue. There was dust everywhere—on the headboards, blinds, and other surfaces—which made my allergies flare up after just one night. There were also ants in the kitchen. To top it off, we found an old, dirty toothbrush under the bed—definitely not the kind of “complimentary” item anyone wants to find. When we arrived, the Wi-Fi wasn’t working, but the hosts had excellent communication and sent someone out the next day to replace the router, which we really appreciated. Overall, the location and the host’s responsiveness were great, but the lack of cleanliness made the stay uncomfortable.

Fun relaxing vacation

The location of property itself was perfect for us not far from beach had pretty much everything you'd need expect as stated no linens meaning sheets & towels which I usually like to use my own pillow & blankets. I use to work in housekeeping so of course to what I consider to be clean this house needed a little extra cleaning but again I pay attention to detail and still wired to look for the hotspots lol also we did have an issue arise during our stay and was resolved within 10 mins!!! literally not even 5 mins after letting office know maintenance was at the property to fix issue. Overall great stay and would definitely rent this property again for location and price.

Great time!

Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was more than satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had a great time staying at one of the elevated places on Clara Street. I didn’t realize until being there how much traffic and partying there was on the beach that we could walk to from the place, but we had a great time. The late afternoon check out on the final day was a huge plus for us. The place was somewhat dated but nice and met all of our needs very well. it was clean, and had everything in the kitchen that we could have needed, including alcohol! We were a little wondering about how it would feel sleeping on top of plastic mattress covers, but it was better than I first expected and worked out fine.
