About this property

Crystal Blue - Bolivar Gulf Beach House - Sleeps 12 - Pets OK

  • Close your eyes. You're on a covered deck, cold drink in hand, the Gulf breeze coming through -- and the sand is half a block away. No ferry lines, no Galveston crowds. Just a bright, modern beach house where your whole crew (dog included) can spread out, unplug, and remember what a real Gulf Coast getaway is supposed to feel like.

    Crystal Blue sits half a block from the Gulf on the Bolivar Peninsula -- drive straight in, no ferry required. Three bedrooms, two baths, sleeps 12.

    LIVING AND KITCHEN
    Open-concept living with vaulted wood-plank ceilings, plush sectional, and 75" smart TV. The kitchen is stocked for real cooking -- full appliances (fridge, stove, microwave, dishwasher), all the cookware, and coffee two ways (drip and K-Cup).
