Beautiful Property
The Oceanic was the perfect place for our large family to stay for our beach vacation! There was plenty of space, comfortable beds, a great layout, and the kids loved the foosball table! The hosts were responsive to our needs, and were very accommodating with scheduling after Hurricane Beryl messed with our original plan. We would recommend this property for future stays!

Grandma's 90th Celebration
The family gathered in Crystal Beach in January to celebrate our Grandma's 90th birthday. We had the best time, even though the weather was not great. This home is well stocked for cooking, games inside and outside, bbq-ing and perfect for beach walks. We had a family member in a boot and they kindly had Joe-Joe come help with the lift to avoid the stairs. Thank you for letting us stay here!

Beautiful, but the back yard is dangerous for bare feet
Worst and most painful stickers I've ever stepped on. You cannot walk across the back yard safely in bare feet. Having sandals or crocs is a must.

Fabulous Vacation
The property is perfectly situated on the beach. It was great to be able to sit out on the deck and watch the tide come in, and also to be able to walk out to the water without having to walk through the neighborhood. The inside of the property is superbly designed. It was comfortable and clean. The owners gave each room its own character. We'd highly recommend this property to anyone, and particularly to families whose children can spend hours and days relaxing and playing in the water and on the beach.

Stay
Rooms were nice and had plenty of space. To entry and lock front door was a pain. You had to be really strong to lock the door. Ac went out and they brought us one portable unit to cool off the whole house so we had to sleep in the heat. Windows had no screens so opening the windows was not a option.

Magnificent home
This home was wonderful, kitchen was well stocked with basic seasonings, the hottub was amazing but I would think at this price point, there would be sufficient basic supplies like toilet paper, paper towel, dishwasher pods. There's not much to do in Crystal Beach and it takes about an hour to get to Galveston, but Galveston had a lot to offer. I would highly recommend Moody Gardens if you're bringing children along.

One of our best trips!
A group of 11 of us came to celebrate a 40th birthday and many of us had never been to Texas. We found this home when looking for different beach options and immediately fell in love. The home, by far, exceeds expectations and the pictures absolutely do not do it justice. It is absolutely gorgeous, the rooms are large enough to accommodate a big group, the different themes are adorable with the way they are decorated. The kitchen is extremely well-stocked as are the bathrooms with toiletries. The view cannot be described properly enough. Waking up to the sound of the ocean and having the gorgeous sunrises and sunsets= a perfect heavenly oasis. Communication was fantastic with the host and the whole process was just amazing. We will definitely keep this home on our list of places to return to!
