Although not a fancy or modern hotel, Crystal Bay is a nice option for a beachy vacation area. It’s not really within walking distance of the beach or restaurants but not an inconvenience drive to most most places. The complimentary breakfast offers a great selection of tasty options. Staff is super friendly and housekeeping does a great job with keeping your room tidy and fresh.

An historical hotel that had some charm and an interesting layout. Rooms were large but we found the bathroom a little lacking for places to put things. Breakfast was good with a wide variety including a lot of fresh fruits. We really didn't interact with staff as check in and out was contactless.

Easy parking, the property is old world charm, the staff super friendly and clean. Our room was spacoius. Bed was not comfortable, the springs might of been bad. Shower felt like you leaning forward in it. Due to it being old the foundation is floors are uneven. The breakfast, the bacon and omelet not that great. Oatmeal and toppings were good. Fruit was also good. They had juice and coffee that were good. The outside grounds are kept up really nice. We were given complimentary water and oat bars which was really nice. I would stay again of course in a different bed.
