A charming cottage-style dining area nearby includes a white framed rectangular table with a dark gray accent top. A honey-toned side bench, two cream-colored intricately carved side chairs, and two beachy ladder-backed end chairs provide ample seating. The open kitchen includes a richly mottled granite-topped bar with three raised white vintage modern styled chairs to enjoy favorite drinks and savory appetizers.

The lovely first-floor master bedroom has creamy white cottage-style furnishings, a king-sized bed, vibrant pillows, and bedside tables with elegant dark lamps. It includes a wall-mounted flatscreen TV, a sunny window, and access to a full hall bath with a glass-walled walk-in shower. The open staircase leads upstairs to the remarkable enclosed separate loft guest quarters. A white cottage-style king-sized bed faces a dresser with a flatscreen TV for evening entertainment.

Million dollar view
Property was very warm and inviting, quiet and million dollar view off the balcony. Spotless, I would come back in a second. Loved our stay, wouldn’t stay any where else.

Perfect!
The place was better than pictured! Access to the beach was easy and the chair/umbrella service was a big plus. The location was a short driving distance to many good restaurants and shopping. Enjoyed my morning coffee on the balcony with the ocean view. I would certainly go here again.
Robin K from Crandall, TX - Stayed August 2023
Thank you for the perfect review! Ocean Reef Resorts is so pleased you enjoyed Crystal Sands 315A, from the easy beach access and chair and umbrella service to the convenient location near dining and shopping. Relaxing on the balcony with morning coffee and that beautiful water view sounds wonderful, and we’d love to welcome you back to the beach again soon.

FAQs

We welcome all of your questions! Most property-specific details can be answered in the AMENITIES tab, for example, "Is beach service included?", "Is there a community pool?" and "How far is the beach?". Additional answers may be found in our Rental Policies.

Still have unanswered questions? We invite you to ask below. Our vacation specialists look forward to providing you with a detailed response to help you find the best place by the beach!

Can you use your own beach umbrella and chairs?
David M - Posted: 02/16/2022

Answer:

I'm afraid the HOA does not permit personal umbrellas, tents, tarps, canopies, or cabanas on the beach, with the exception of baby tents which may not exceed 48” in height. Umbrellas and chairs are available for rent through the onsite beach service. Private chairs are allowed to be set up behind the rental row of umbrellas. The good news is Crystal Sands 315A includes two chairs and one umbrella complimentary! If additional setups are needed, they can be rented through the onsite beach service provider.

What does free seasonal beach service mean?
David M - Posted: 02/16/2022

Answer:

Free Seasonal Beach Service consists of two chairs and one umbrella setup complimentary each day of your stay. This free service is provided seasonally between the months of March through October.
