This is our second year to stay here and plan to continue. The home is clean, organized and just overall well kept. The only thing that was bothersome was the mosquitos so bring your bug spray! Love this home and the host! 10/10!!

We have stayed in a couple of Blue Wave rentals and they are great! Always clean and ready to go! The owners are awesome and will respond to any help needed during your stay. Also, very close to the beach. Within walking distance.

Great Stay at Crystal Beach

Perfect!
We are enjoyed our stay in Crystal Beach. The house was very clean and well apportioned. Our boys enjoyed the bunk room, but would gather around the large table for meals & games. Just a short walk to the beach was so convenient. In the middle of everything! If you forgot anything they have it at The Big Store just down the road. Will come back again!

We enjoyed our fall break trip immensely! The Location worked perfectly for our needs. We needed a pet free place to stay and found this gem! The owner was very attentive to any questions or concerns we had which we appreciated! If we decide to return to the Galveston area we will definitely look a staying here again!

Weekend with friends in Crystal Beach
The property is very clean and feels recently built. Short walk to beach, perfect for a family and good price point. Ferry is fun for the kids but can take time so not the best if your wanting to go back and forth to Galveston. We never left Crystal beach so ideal for us. Fantastic stay overall.

Wonderful weekend home for a getaway!!!
Just a wonderful house. In some ways, it was nicer than our actual house. lol. Perfect location, steps from the beach. Easily walkable, tho we did take my truck just to get speakers and chairs and such down there. But walked back and forth throughout the day. Everything you need is provided. Appliances are top notch. Beds are comfy. And the owners are super responsive and do care about your stay. There was even a charity cookout bbq for the firefighters and they picked up bbq and delivered to us - their treat. We would without a doubt go back.

The perfect place for a family vacation
Crystal Sands is the perfect place for a family vacation. We had a great time, and this was such a nice, clean home in an excellent location. The home and furnishings are very new, comfortable and bright. Jerry and Blue Wave Vacation Rentals made everything so easy. Book it if you can find open dates—you’ll be happy you did!

This was a new, beautiful, fully equipped and accommodate house. The owners literally anticipated every possible need. We highly recommend this home away from home.

Perfect location!
The house was more than we could have imagined. It was so beautiful. The pictures online do not do it justice. It’s gorgeous. We had 4 adults and 2 kids and it was more than enough room. The location was wonderful. You can see the beach from the balcony. The process was so easy and Jerry was a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend renting a golf cart. Another recommendation would be to bring a baby gate for the upper deck. Our little one would try to go down constantly. If you are wanting a house, this is the one!

Jerry, the owner gave the most personal attention we have ever had while renting during a vacation. He truly cares that you have a positive experience. Crystal Sands home was new, and clean. It was just my husband and myself for 4 days, but the setup would be perfect with kids or grandkids. So close to the beach!!!

Crystal Sands
We loved our stayed at Crystal Sands. The house was extremely clean which is very important. The decor was very inviting. To be given 5 stars the mattresses needed to be more comfortable. I would suggest a baking dish for quiche or baking a casserole.

Beautiful Vacation Home!!
This was our first stay at the Crystal Sands property. The house was amazing! The views of the beach were perfect, there was plenty of space for my family and the home was super clean and well taken care of. We felt really comfortable staying there. The owners were so prompt in answering all my questions by either text or email. Great communication! We had no issues during our stay at all and will be back to stay at this home again very soon.

Perfect beach home
This home was in a great location, just steps from the beach and with a great view. Beautifully decorated and furnished, spotlessly clean, and with so many thoughtful touches and amenities, we can’t recommend this home enough. My kids loved the convenience of the hot/cold outdoor shower; there’s a great spot to grill with a built in bar and picnic tables under the home, comfy captains chairs on the top deck made for a great place to sip a drink and people watch. Games and puzzles included which we al enjoyed, and we definitely made use of all of the food recommendations included in the guest book. Very responsive owners who made the entire process easy and seamless. Definitely 5 star!

Thanksgiving
We met our children and grandchildren at the Crystal Sands to make a new Thanksgiving memory. The check-in process was flawless and the house and surrounding area was so clean and inviting. The beach was just a short walk away. We look forward to returning with extended family and rent all three houses!

WOW! Beautiful and Prime Location!
This home is absolutely BEAUTIFUL. We could not stop gushing over how perfect this home is and it is even prettier in person! The location is amazing as we could hear and see the waves from our front deck, where we spent so much of our time enjoying the outdoors in the cozy furniture and cool shade. This is our second stay with Blue Wave and we are already planning the next! You will impress your guests with this home, guaranteed!
