Bali Beach House

We have been coming to Crystal beach over 10 years. We always rented our homes from a different company. After the nasty home we stayed in last year I vowed I would never go back to them. This is our first time to rent from Cobb and it was fabulous! The people are genuinely nice and pleasant to talk to. The house was amazing! Very clean and in a great location. We usually stay on 2nd or 3rd row. This house was technically row 3 1/2. (Meaning there are 4 houses between us and the beach.) Even though we cannot see the beach so great the house made the difference. This house is located on a No Beach access road and that is what we like. Very little traffic! Very quiet neighborhood. This house has great large rooms and many bathrooms. It accommodated our family wonderfully. The elevator was a huge help in getting our items up to the main floor. We will definitely come back to this house, if available and we will from now on use Cobb Real Estate!

Love this house. Nicely furnished. It’s perfect for large families. Plenty of room for everyone Only drawback is no beach access from this street so you have to go back out to Hwy 87 and go down 2 streets to get to the beach.

We so enjoyed our stay at Bali! We even met the owners and learned about the decor history. Can't wait to come back!

It was so nice for our big family to have enough room inside and out for 20 people! The inside was very modern. Even though we could walk a short distance to the beach, we brought a golf cart to ride up and down the beach. And we could actually see the ocean from this house. And the elevator was a life saver! That will definitely be a must have from now on. The house was super clean and there was plenty of parking. We cannot wait to come back again next year to this perfect beach home!

From the first ride up the elevator to the final decent on the elevator, our stay at Bali was absolutely perfect ����...plenty of room as well as amenities. It was absolutely wonderful not having to hawl linens to the cabin as well as up & down the stairways...many, many thanks to the owner(s) and Cobb Real Estate for a memorable experience...we will definitely keep you all in our minds for our next “beach” experience.

We had a wonderful time! The house is incredible and really worked perfect for our family!

The house was AMAZING!!! It was a perfect size for our family and everyone had a bedroom! The master was incredible with a huge bathroom! I loved that every bathroom has 2 showers so we could shower several kids at the same time and get to events faster LOL. My favorite thing I think is that the bedrooms were away from the kitchen and great room so when adults wanted to do things together everyone who did not want to participate in it could still sleep without being bothered by noise.

Our family had a great time in Crystal Beach at Bali Beach House! Very spacious; two stairways convenient; TVs in every bedroom; kitchen was awsome (short on pan/utensils); great balconies. Would definitely rent again!

Absolutely amazed by this beautiful home.after coming home from iraq this was just the paradise my family and i had been looking for.

We thoroughly enjoyed the Bali house. The décor was charming, plenty of space for a lot of people and nice proximity to the beach. The kitchen was well appointed and there were plenty of extra blankets and pillows. The decks had plenty of seating and the space below the house is huge for grilling or boiling crawfish. We had a great time!

The house was beautiful - even better than the pictures!

This is our 4th year to stay at Crystal Beach for our summer family vacation. We rented this large house because we have grown grandchildren who work and would join us as they were able. We enjoyed having lots of space for everyone. The access to the beach was a little problem, but we got past that by walking a little more than expected. The beach house was very, very nice. The bathrooms were amazing and the elevator was a wonderful help with loading and unloading supplies. The kitchen is great and allows multiple people to work together on meals. I recommend this property to anyone in need of all the extras this house provides. It was an awesome 10 day vacation site.

The set up of the house was perfect for our family. The owners thought of everything when building this beach house.
We loved the Bali theme and art work throughout. The tree was a hit with my grandchildren!
We will be back again and again!
Thank you for opening this home to share with others!

The home was perfect for the amount of people we had and the location was good

Enjoyed our stay at Bali Beach House; the home is very nice. I will book this home again in the future.

If one is part of a large group, as we were (20), the Bali Beach House is the near perfect place to be. The Great-Room is spacious, with plenty of room for all --including seating: large dining table and three separate bars, with stools plus an office chair at the "computer station."

The elevator is WONDERFUL for us ol' farts but, strongly suggest you banish those who cannot follow simple directions to the stairs. The decks are SUPER... Perfect for sunrise coffee and sunset cocktails. Beach access, for those on foot is easy. For golf carts and other vehicles... A half-block detour is required.

Fishermen will find the Bali a very convenient "Hub." There are major fishing piers/spots in either direction and of course, on the Bali Beach. Our personal fisherman caught a very nice trout (YUMMY), within walking distance of the house. The Bolivar Peninsula, for those coming from the West, is accessed via the ferry. For those coming from the North and East --Access via Hwy 87 (Winnie, Tx) is the way to go. Once on/at Crystal Beach, there plenty of food stores, gas stations, ice machines and a variety of other "amusements" to keep any size group occupied; in case the beach isn't enough. Hint: For those planning an extended stay, purchase your groceries at the "Big Store" in lieu of carting half your kitchen/pantry from home. The Bali has crock-pots, pots 'n pants and an assortment of glassware. Nevertheless, the ubiquitous red solo-cup, Chinette and plastic utensils will fit right in with your temporary "beach life."

The beach: During the week -not quite deserted. The Weekend crowd: A different story -worth watching.

Galveston: From the Bali Beach House, you WILL use the ferry, if nothing more than to say, "... I took the ferry." The TxDOT ferry is free and efficient but, one should NOT be in a hurry; in either direction.

Frankly, if one cannot find a comfortable spot to plant one's self at the Bali --One should earne

What a wonderful home! With about 14 people sharing the home, we had plenty of room to relax. The kitchen and living area is very spacious, with more than enough seating area for meals and game playing. The home is very clean and beautifully decorated, with the MOST COMFORTABLE beds we have ever had at a beach cabin. The elevator was very much appreciated by our elderly parents. Really nice wraparound deck, with part of it screened in case of mosquitos. We were lucky enough to have beautiful weather and no seaweed on the beach during our trip. Stingaree, Steve's Landing and Ocean Grille are some of the places we had great seafood. We took the ferry into Galveston one day of our trip, to shop and eat at Gaido's. Overall, a great home we would recommend to everyone.

We had a great stay at the Bali Beach House. While Tropical Storm Bill kept us off the beach for a couple of days, we couldn't have been happier with the house. There is so much space, and the game room upstairs was invaluable for the kids. We had only minor complaints that I addressed with the property manager, and I'm sure those little things will be fixed for the next renter.

The house was great. Clean, plenty of room and a good location. easy access to the beach.
The management staff was also very friendly and helpful.

We spent the week-end here for my wife's birthday with her family. We normally get beachfront rentals, (beachfront in crystal beach requires a week stay in summer). I was impressed by the house and would recommend it. All the houses around here are close to the beach. We have stayed at two others on this island within the last year. All of them were good solid houses and enjoyable to stay in. Great place to stay if you are looking for a low stress beach vacation.

The home was beautiful, clean & very well stocked. Only complaint was the beds were a little low for older people. Elevator was the attraction for older people so the two items don't make sense.

This beach house was easy to reserve with simple check-in and check-out procedures. It was clean and spacious with huge outside areas that offered shade in both morning and evening. It is an easy walk to the beach and close to a grocery store and gas station. The neighborhood is on a dead-end street, so traffic is minimal. Nice and quiet. Lots of space for large groups, but plenty of privacy.
