Perfect Getaway

Even after a hurricane rolled through like a week prior this place was great! The owners were super responsive and friendly and made sure the place was perfect for us even under the crazy circumstances. Location is great, super easy to the beach, right next to golf cart rentals! We really enjoyed the large patio and great views of the ocean. Inside has everything we needed plus more and was very nice!

Fall break getaway

My husband & I with our son and DIL enjoyed the comforts of this beautiful home. We have stayed at beach houses around this area before and this is by far one of the nicer ones. It is very well equipped with thing most homes do not have and the little things do make a difference. The owners were very responsive to questions and comments.

Excellent place to stay

Great cabin, kitchen had everything we needed, lots of outdoor seating, owners responded quickly when we had questions, awesome location to the beach! Plenty of room for our grown kids but did not feel too big when it was just hubby and me. This will be our go to cabin when we are heading to Crystal Beach!

This beach house was great. We really enjoyed the views of the beach and hearing the waves as we sat on the porch at night. The house was clean and comfortable. The kitchen was very well equipped and stocked with everything you’ll need. We certainly hope to rent from these hosts again.

This was our first time visiting Crystal Beach. Everyone was extremely helpful and friendly. The house was perfect for our stay, it was spacious, clean, perfect distance to the beach. We were able to walk and have our morning coffee as the sun rose each morning.

Hello from the Martin Family!
We live in Fort Worth, TX and LOVE to travel. We're both on staff at Solid Rock Church, which provided the inspiration for the name of our home, "Saltwater Seabbattical". We have 4 kids who are as excited to share our dream with you as we are! Having been born & raised in Texas, we hope you experience southern hospitality and leave more refreshed than when you arrived! Enjoy your stay!!

What makes this property unique

Beach access is steps from the Saltwater Seabbatical! There is ample parking for 3-4 cars in the oversized driveway. Golf cart rentals are popular in Crystal Beach, and "It's a Beach Thing: Golf Cart Rentals" is nearby!

Bolivar Beach Parking Stickers are available to purchase from local vendors for those who would like to park on the beach.
