Perfect Spring Break!
We had such a good time. The house was beautiful and spacious and comfortable. Steps from the beach so we could run back up to the house if we needed something. It was just a very special time for us. We are already thinking about booking another trip. Thank you.

Nice vacation spot. Beach is private since you can't drive on the beach in that area. Kids enjoyed playing on the beach and looking for crabs at night with flashlights.

Wonderful Spring Break
This house was perfect for our family of 5, although there are plenty of beds for bigger families! The kitchen was fully stocked and the bathrooms had extra TP. The views are lovely, we had lots of wind and rain but that didn’t stop us from enjoying the balconies and the beach. We even spent some time on the porch swing. Thank you for the lovely stay.

Beautiful beach retreat
The house is just feet from the beach. It is well equipped with beach toys and games for the kids. The host provided special touches that made us feel welcome and at home. It is our second time to stay at this property and we are already hoping to be back next year.

Fantastic location and set up
This house has it all in terms of fully stocked kitchen and excellent location just steps from the beach. There were a couple of issues related to cleanliness when we arrived, but management made it right. I would stay here again - being able to take a walk on the beach any time day or night is a huge plus. One suggestion is to put a curtain or shade on the window in the trundle room (looks like something has been there in the past but has fallen down?) because the sun comes up and shines directly in there in the morning. The master bedroom door is warped and does not remain closed, but i think that can be easily adjusted. Just a few tweaks and this is easily a 5 star stay. We look forward to coming back to see how it's improved upon.

4 star could be 5
Nice property, good remote location, good beach and beach access. Few little "touch-ups" as previously reported could make property a 5 star property.

Relaxing Family Vacation
Thank you Bernadette for being a wonderful host. We enjoyed our stay. This was truly a home away from home. It was spacious, clean, and the location was perfect, making it convenient for us to walk to the beach. My family and I had the best time! Thank you for helping us create lifelong family memories with our children, son-in-laws, and grandchildren.

Like being at home
We all had the best time at the krusty krab. Everything , literally everything was provided. The home was immaculately clean. The view of the gulf was the best ever. The beautiful sunrise from the master bedroom so romantic. We took a late night stroll on the beach to see the night stars. With the beach only a 100 feet away it was a no brainer to enjoy the beach day and night. We made burgers on the weber grill. Cooked breakfast each morning in the fully stocked kitchen. Staying at the Kristy Krab you will not miss being at home.

best rental house
We are a family of 6 adults and (5 kids - ages 5 to 10). All the adults stated it was the best place on the beach that we have stayed. It was spacious and very clean. The view of the gulf was great and the short walk to the beach was fantastic. Especially for the kids. It was well stocked with everything needed. All we needed to bring was clothes, beach towels and food/drinks. Loved going through the front door up the stairs to the upper level and not having to climb stairs on the outside of the house. The beds were comfortable. The deck had a nice big table to use for some of us to enjoy our meals outside.

4th of July Holiday
I stayed at the Krusty Krab 4th of July 2023 weekend. House was very nice, with great views of the beach. Even though its a second row house, it feels like first row. Check in and out process was very each with great communication from owner. We would definitely stay here again.

Ideal location
All the adults rate it the best property we have stayed at on the beach. Clean, spacious and comfortable. Short walk to the beach and a good view of the gulf water from the decks and front windows. Very well equipped. Only needed to bring our food and clothes. Great people to deal with. Bernadette responded quickly to any questions I had. The five kids ( ages 5 to 10) had a great time.

too many guests
The first day we arrived, Bernadette was nice enough to let us check in an hour early. We tried to go to the beach, but the mosquitoes wouldn't let us out of the door. We looked around for bug spray, but didn't find any. We put that on the list of things to get at the store. That night we were getting ready for bed. My son asked me why there were ants all over the bed. Sure enough, ants! They were crawling on the ceiling and dropping onto the bed. They swarmed the master bedroom, the stairwell and the other upstairs room. We moved all of our stuff back downstairs and sent a text to Bernadette. She was very apologetic. She said that her brother had experienced the same thing at his house in Houston the week before. I took a picture of 2 of the ants to show her what kind they were. My kids were freaked out! This was not how we wanted to spend a relaxing vacation! Next day, we couldn't wait to get out of the house! We went to the water park to get away. No beach towels, so we added that to the list. When we got home, I was going to do a load of laundry. No detergent. Add it to the list. That evening, we waited for the ants to return. Every couple of minutes, my kids would run up the stairs to look. We were on pins and needles. No ants that night. I requested a refund of one night from the management company. I sent the pictures that I took of the ants. After about 2 weeks, they said they couldn't refund any money due to "Insufficient evidence".

Our new favorite!
We come to Galveston every year for Thanksgiving, and this is our new favorite house! Would love to return again next year. Clean, updated, decorated cute and modern. Very very kid friendly, had tons of kitchen supplies that made it easy to cook Thanksgiving dinner! Not first row on the beach, but you still have a great view and easy walk. Communication was great before our trip, absolutely zero complaints. We all loved it, thanks for sharing your home!
