The Best Family Spot for Small Kids

We were very happy with the “Simply Blessed” house. It was the perfect stay for our family in Crystal Beach. The kids (5 under 5) loved the toys in the bunk room. We all enjoyed the cool couch and beanbag in the living area each night as we actually got to sit and watch movies together. Thank you, Jessica!

The home and its location are perfect gor makimg memories. Communication with the host was great and with fast responses. The amount of thoughtful details included in the home are so sweet. From the closet full of toys, family games, and outdoor activities that are supplied, to the personalized seashell holder frame for families to leave their touch.

Blessed Retreat

What a perfect get-a-way. We loved every single minute here. We felt right at home. Cozy and well equipped vacation rental. Simply Blessed had everything we could need while staying at the beach. (Just remember to pack all your own paper supplies like TP and paper towels). We loved how close it was to the beach and we walked there every day. We even extended our trip because of how much fun we were having. The kids loved all of the board games, video games and tv shows in the evenings after long days in the sun. The hosts were a dream to work with and made sure we were well taken care of. We can’t wait to come back again.

Crystal beach family fun

We loved our house we rented on CB. The house was family friendly. Lots of games inside, tons of seating in and outside. The kitchen was easy to get around and prepare food! Cute beach decor-comfy beds. Lots of room and big deck to hang out up and down stairs! We sure enjoyed our visit.
