Relax & Unwind at This Peaceful Crystal Beach Getaway | House in Bolivar Peninsula

Soak up ocean breezes and coastal charm at the Red Mermaid Retreat!
Wake up to the sound of waves and salty air at this charming 4-bedroom beach cabin—just steps from the sand. Whether you`re sipping coffee on the deck, prepping a meal in the kitchen, or lounging with a book in the cozy living room, the Red Mermaid Retreat has everything you need for a relaxing and memorable stay.
Room for everyone:
The house comfortably sleeps up to 10 guests. Kids will love the room with four fun bunk beds, while two other bedrooms feature plush queen beds. The primary bedroom offers a spacious king bed for maximum comfort.
Fully stocked and ready to go:
The kitchen has everything you need to cook your crew’s favorite meals, and there’s a washer and dryer on-site to keep things easy. Outside, fire up the grill downstairs, rinse off the beach day in the outdoor shower, and hang out on the patio or balcony to enjoy the coastal breeze.
Private, peaceful, and perfectly located:
The Red Mermaid Retreat is tucked in a quiet area of the Bolivar Peninsula—same beautiful coastline as Crystal Beach, but more relaxed. Just four homes on the street means more peace and less traffic. Yet you’re only a quick drive from all the restaurants, shops, and activities in Crystal Beach.
