I wish I could post pictures of our family vacation; from the clean and cozy cabin we walked into to the smiling faces of our kids and grands-2 & 4 legged. 😁 The kids even mentioned they would love to stay here again! It is in a gated and peaceful neighborhood and on a cul de sac so you dont have thru traffic. There is a walkover to the beach just 2 houses down and a golf cart bridge not far down the street. The beach is the best for family's, esp with small kids, bc traffic and riff raff is is less than any other beach spot; we have grown up coming to Crystal Beach and know this for a fact! We will be renting this perfect cabin next year....or sooner!Ty again for sharing your beach gem with our family!

We loved our stay at Ohana Hideaway! The home is beautiful, with multiple areas to comfortably gather together. The porch is amazing, has lots of seating options, and great views. We loved having the outdoor shower after our beach day! The extra amenities are appreciated…beach towels, toys, paddle boards, chairs, sun hats, etc. The location is perfect! It’s a short walk to the dune crossover, or a five minute drive, to access the beach by car. It’s the ideal combination of being close enough to the beach to quickly run back and forth to the house, yet also set far enough back from it, to have better separation between the homes, providing more privacy and space for a larger group. The host, Richard, was proactive in communicating from the time of booking, until after check out. He quickly responded to any questions, was extremely accommodating to our requests, and checked in with us several times throughout our stay. We will definitely be booking again, and 10/10 recommend!

This place is amazing! We had 5 kids and 5 adults and it slept us extremely comfortably. There were plenty of toys for kids to play at the beach or outside while you grill provided which was amazing. The kitchen was perfectly stocked with every utensils necessary to make a great meal! There were plenty of towels both beach and bathroom, and with a washer and dryer provided we were able to wash swimsuits and beach towels each night! The location is great as well, just a quick 5 minute walk to the beach, private fenced in community, and nice and quiet neighborhood. Hosts are also very responsive about any issues or concerns you may have! Overall, I would highly recommend this home, and we will be coming back!

This beach house is absolutely perfect! It's extremely close to the beach making it super easy to get back and forth to the beach. Being in a gated community, the house and beach felt private. It provides terrific views. The porch is perfect for reading and relaxing while listening to the waves. The house had everything we needed. I don't think we could have picked a better place to stay!

We’re so glad we took a chance with this new listing!! This house is AMAZING! It looks identical to the photos but even cozier and more peaceful. It’s sparkling clean & stocked so well, the linens & towels are all plentiful and soft. Plus makeup mirrors in every bathroom. Lots of spices and coffee makings are provided and some really thoughtful extras in addition to a fully stocked kitchen with all the pots/pans/utensils. The gated community is gorgeous & very quiet, super secure feeling with close beach access (less than 2 minute walk) and the house is overlooking a pond that tons of birds visit daily. We are bringing our binoculars next time! Located less than 10 mins from several bars, restaurants & shopping, it’s the best location on the peninsula. The tiki bar downstairs is great for unwinding & the outdoor shower is awesome. Lots of beach toys available & CORNHOLE! Some board games & reading material also available inside. We’ve already booked a return trip for May. Can’t wait
