Family Getaways
Crystal Beach is one of the best family-friendly beach getaways in the U.S.! When you bring the little ones along for the trip, they will be able to enjoy vacation fun all the same as you. Some of the best excursions for the family are Baywatch Dolphin Tours, the Anahuac National Wildlife Preserve, Schlitterbahn Water Park, and Fort Travis Seashore Park. Combining these fun, kid-friendly activities create a great mix of education and fun that caters to the whole family!
Large Family Getaways
One of the best uses of our spacious and comfortable vacation rentals is for a family reunion! When you are bringing more than just you and kids along, you’ll have access to some of our largest vacation rentals, which can sleep upwards of 34 people (sounds like an impressively large family!). A Sea Glass Estate, Amazing Grace, and Pirate’s Cove are currently our three largest rental homes, but you can always sort our list by quantity of bedrooms to see what the top-ranking homes are at any given time!
Couple Getaways
Trips with the entire family can be blast, but sometimes you are just looking for an intimate time together with the one you love most! Luckily, our list of rentals has enough range to host everything from the largest family reunion to a getaway just for two. Once you arrive, there are plenty of romantic activities to take part in. Take a stroll down the beach together at sunrise or sunset. Attend a concert at the Bolivar Beach Club. Or maybe you’re ready to tie the knot and you want a beautiful beach wedding!
