Absolutely perfect!

We had the absolute best experience from booking, rescheduling due to weather, check-in and an amazing stay. This house has the perfect location, layout and amenities. We have rented houses on Bolivar in the past but Fire and Ike is by far the best. I highly recommend this property and the management company was so kind and responsive.

Awesome cabin!

We really enjoyed this cabin. The location was awesome. We enjoyed the deck and beach toys for the kids and would go back! Our only complaint was the sensitive motion light near the windows of one of the bedrooms which could be mitigated with curtains in the bedrooms. Overall, wonderful cabin!

Perfect view

Our family and friends had a wonderful stay. We could stay on the porch and enjoy the view or walk a few steps to the water. Clean spacious house. We didn’t even discover the games and water toys in the garage until the morning we left.

At the Beach

Everyone loved the layout of the house. The kitchen had plenty of room to store our food for the week. The beds were comfortable. It was nice to be so close to the beach. I reported the doorknob being rusted, because two of my family members cut their hands when turning the knob. Hopefully that will be fixed. It was a very nice vacation home.

Family "reunion"

We try to arrange a full family gathering every few years. Our younger, of 2 sons, lives in CA and has to 5ravel the farthest. Our older son is self-employed and has to see when he can take off. We thoroughly enjoyed our time together and hope to return when we can. Everyone loved the house and short walkk to the beach. THANK YOU for this experience!

Incredible beach house!

We had a tiny hiccup with our check in and couldn't get into the home with the code we were given and the code never worked during our stay. Thankfully we only had to wait 5-10 mins before we got ahold of someone and got inside! However, I didn't want to knock a star because the place was dreamy and perfect!!!! Tons of yard games in the garage - don't miss those! I loved having a yard between the house and the ocean to play in with the family but then just walk right into the beach. Inside was in excellent condition and had the perfect beachy feel! We'll definitely book this home again in the future.

This was a great family getaway for a larger group. The home was clean and spacious with lots of convenient amenities. My three year old appreciated access all the fun beach toys! The proximity to the beach was perfect. Will return in the future!

Stellar Property!

We absolutely loved staying at Fire & Ike! The home was lovely, kitchen and living area were very easy to hang out in and make memories. The beach view was fantastic, we even got to use the fire pit! (highly recommend). We could not have asked for a better stay at Crystal Beach. If you want to stay at a hassle free property where you can make priceless memories with your family, Fire & Ike is the place for you!

Wonderful break!

What a GREAT place! We came in for just a short time and wow, was it wonderful and relaxing. It really is right on the beach and great location, close to restaurants, grocery store, and bars! Great time watching the waves from the deck with coffee for morning and wine for evening, with beach time in between. The house had everything we needed and is beautiful. Just the recharge we were after, and we will definitely be back next year! Thank you!

Great beachfront house

Our extended family stayed here and there was plenty of room for everyone. The short walk to the beach, beach toys in the storage room, comfortable bedding, cleanliness, the bedrooms were quiet even when people were in the living room or kitchen....all around awesome house. Definitely recommend and will rent again.
