3 blocks from the beach, good food just down the road. Comfy couches amd beds. What could be better. Host was very responsive. The house is lovely. (Thank you for the full length mirror!)
This house was beautiful, the pictures honestly do it no justice! The only issues I had were the ants coming in after it rained and my kiddos got ant bites unfortunately! The house was pretty clean, the bunk beds were a little dusty but the mattresses and linens were clean my overall stay was enjoyable :)
House was great some food was under the sofa when we got there but it was no big deal to us, loved how close the house was to the beach itself! Had plenty if room to sleep my children loved the bunk beds!!
Our family recently had the pleasure of staying at this fantastic home, and I can't say enough good things about it! From start to finish, the experience was seamless and delightful.
This is the second house weâve stayed at by Steve & Debbie and it did not disappoint! House was decorated beautifully and very clean. Comfortable beds within walking distance to beach what more could you ask for?!?!
My family & I have been visiting Crystal Beach for 50+ years. Here are some thoughts on Casa Dingle, survival in response to prior reviews:
1. Most cabins on the peninsula do not have TVs in each room. Or, at least the ones I can afford to rent!
2. All internet on the peninsula is spotty during holidays. Itâs fine between 3a - 5a, lol, when most people are asleep.
3. I donât think the owners spy on you via camera. If they noticed the front door was open, itâs because they drove by and noticed while checking on their other properties.
4. The mattresses were an upgrade from others I have slept on.
5. The kitchen has just about everything you need.
6. The owner immediately checked on a maintenance issue, then came back several hours later on a Saturday night to make sure his repair fixed the problem.
6. I agree there was a bit more noticeable sway, but not to a disturbing degree.
7. Most owners are a little more flexible with early check-in if the cabin is ready. But, itâs their house, so their rules. I could see where liability issues might arise if something breaks before the rental contract actually starts.
Overall, wonderful place to stay and we had another week of awesome 4th memories!
This was our second time staying here for my sonâs birthday with his friends! We will definitely be booking for next year!! Love everything about this house!!
Our time at this property was a great experience. The beds and rooms were cozy. House was nice, clean, and offered a lot of things we needed. The TV and WIFI were very spotty. I would recommend bringing your own knives for cooking. Other than that it was a great stay!
I was impressed when I saw this listing on VRBO, but it was beyond my expectations once I arrived! Being on third row, I wasn't really sure what kind of view we would have of the beach, but it wasn't really bad at all. We had a good angle of the beach from our deck. We are right on Stingaree Drive, so we were within walking distance of the beach as well. There was some traffic, but not as busy as I had expected for a holiday weekend. We were able to set our canopies up very close and walk back and forth to the house if we needed to. The house itself was very nice! We had a spacious deck and the area downstairs had swings so we spent some time down there as well. The bedrooms were very nice and spacious and beautifully decorated. Our daughter and grandkids loved the bunk room! I couldn't get many channels on the TV, but it wasn't an issue for us because we didn't watch much TV. The bathrooms were very nice, updated with a beach theme. Overall, we had a wonderful time and we would definitely rent this house again!
We had three moms and a bunch of kids on this trip! The house was amazing! We loved how everything was clearly labeled! Itâs a great location, easy walk to the beach. Loved our stay!
The house is very nice. Location was great. We loved being able to walk to the beach. The house is clean and updated. Very nice looking. The WiFi isnât great but it wasnât a huge deal for us. My only complaint is that the house sways quite a bit. Iâve never been in a house that sways so much. Weâd be sitting on the couch or at the table and feel it move. Overall the house is very nice and we would definitely rent again.
We are Steve and Debbie Dengler. We currently reside in the Beaumont, TX area. We grew up going to Crystal Beach and decided that we wanted to invest in Crystal Beach as it is coming back from being destroyed by Hurricane Ike.
We have 2 other properties in Crystal Beach and they are all side by side. Great opportunity for families to come together for reunions or whatever and be able to rent homes by each other.
