Unwind and reconnect on the serene Bolivar Peninsula, Texas.
Crystal Beach is one of the most underrated romantic getaway spots on the Texas coast. Private hot tub homes with Gulf views, world-class sunsets over East Galveston Bay, empty Gilchrist beaches at sunrise, and waterfront dining at Stingaree make it the perfect couples escape. No crowds, no agenda, and no resort prices. Here is how to plan it.
No crowds, no noise, no agenda. Wake up when you want, drink coffee on the deck watching waves, take a long walk on empty sand, and spend the evening cooking together or at a waterfront restaurant. The lack of commercial tourism makes everything feel authentic.
Stingaree Restaurant upstairs overlooking East Galveston Bay has one of the best sunset views on the Texas coast. The sky turns orange and pink over the water. Alternatively, a bayfront or west-facing rental deck offers a private viewing experience.
Several of our homes feature private hot tubs with Gulf views. Soaking under the stars with the sound of the ocean is unforgettable. Filter by the hot tub amenity on our website.
Drinks at Stingaree’s DownUnder bar for live music, then seafood dinner upstairs with sunset views. Or cook fresh Gulf seafood together in your rental kitchen and eat on the deck. The ferry at sunset is also surprisingly romantic.
