Tiny Bubbles -Hot Tubs-Screened Game Room-Spacious Decks-EV Charger

Tiny Bubbles - whether in the hot tub or your champagne glass - a perfect escape from the daily routine.

Summer time is the best time at Tiny Bubbles with sun, sand, waves and other activities at Tiny Bubbles and along Hwy 87.

Our wifi-enabled beach retreat in the Emerald Beach I subdivision has 3 bedrooms- the master has a king bed with twin futon and twin daybed in closet, 2nd bedroom has a queen bed and queen futon, and 'the kids room' has a double/twin bunk bed and queen bed.. One of the bean bags in the living room opens to a double mattress.

The large covered deck overlooking the canal is enjoyed by all either for relaxing, reading, or conversation. Nap on the ample chairs on the decks! Glide yourself to sleep! Continue on the deck to sit at the table for cards or a meal under the umbrella. Finally there is the hot tub seating 6 with a sun bathing deck over it.

Watch the sunset or drink your morning coffee on the north side deck. Enjoy the overhead view of the kids playing on the basketball court down below.

The downstairs screened-in party room was the addition after the hurricane to replace the garages lost. It features a bar area including sink and full shareable refrigerator with icemaker. Custom benches encircle the room and there are 2 tables with chairs and games such as foosball, darts, ping pong and washers. There are bar height chairs for sitting at the bar area or around post tables. A DirectTV satellite TV sits on the bar for the sports enthusiasts to watch their games or for some music. Just outside the door is a custom Pitts & Spitts smoker/grill perfect for smoking all those delicious Texas meats and grilling 'shrimps on the barbie. It uses both propane or charcoal or wood for smoking meats. There are 2 picnic tables by the grill. Just outside the screened room is another hot tub with built-in bench for relaxing and bubble time. If both hot tubs are left clean, the property fee of $100 will be refunded.

There is also a fishing table on the side of house with a deep sink to wash the fish you catch. Also, the outdoor shower is good to rinse off that sand and salt water from the beach before you get in the hot tub or go upstairs.

If you enjoy lying around after a long walk on the beach, the living room and master bedroom have a Direct TV Network. There are couches with 2 recliners each and one separate reclining chair making the den the ultimate relaxing spot.

The spacious master bedroom has a very comfy king size bed and twin futon with a a flat screen Roku TV with Direct TV satellite. The master bedroom also has it own private bathroom, closet(twin daybed) and locking door from the rest of the house.

We have provided all the linens and bath towels you will need. Beds are already made. Just please bring your own beach towels for use on the deck with hot tub or the beach!

Every morning, beach combing is fun to see what the waves have brought in overnight! The beach is full of beautiful shells, sea beans, sharks teeth and sea glass to take home or to make arts and crafts with. The sand is ideal for that great sand castle you've been wanting to build.

There is an electric vehicle (EV) charging station in the car port.

There is plenty of bird watching if you like that, some of the birds we still have not identified! Watch as they fly over the canal or visit nearby High Island Bird Sanctuary.

We want you to enjoy Tiny Bubbles as much as we do.

Come and enjoy lots of fun in the sun. Our home is great for family vacations or private get-a-ways. The renter must be at least 25 years old. If hosting a reunion, party, or reception, an extra event fee of $100 is needed.

You will find mobile device charging stations with multiple USB ports in each of the bedrooms and the den to keep all your electronic devices charged. Just bring your own charging cords!

We have 2 hot tubs but need to say that if one isn't working, the other one will be for your pleasure.

We are so excited to share our beach home to families that will respect and appreciate it like we do.

Thank you for visiting our website!

Tiny Bubbles Beach House
We had an amazing stay at Tiny Bubbles. The house is stocked with everything you can imagine, the owners are very responsive to any questions/issues, and it's in a great location. On top of all that, there is so much to do to keep everyone entertained. Highly recommend and we would definitely want to stay there again if we go back to Crystal Beach.

Thank you for sharing your home with our family! The moment that we walked in through the front door we felt at home. The personal touches that you’ve put into your home made us all feel welcome and right at home. We will always try to stay there more often as we are frequent visitors of Crystal beach.

A Terrific Family Getaway
This beautiful place on Bolivar was perfect for our family to enjoy time together celebrating our daughter’s graduation from college and our annual family gathering. The downstairs was absolutely a hit with our adult children and perfect for family game time. The house is not too far from the beach, but far enough not to be peaceful! The decks are perfect for sipping coffee in the morning or relaxing in the evening! Highly recommend!

Wonderful place!
Clean place supplied with all of the necessities and more. It was great to have the hot tubs and downstairs activities on the cooler days when the beach was a 'no go'. The hosts were accommodating and friendly. Great location that suited the needs of both children and adults. We hope to be back soon.

Perfect Family Getaway
Our stay at Tiny Bubbles was just what our family needed. The only bad thing is that we didn't want to leave! The hot-tub and game room provide entertainment for all ages; there was always something to do. The beach was also very clean, we did not have ANY seaweed when we were there. We can not wait to stay here again!

Magical Birthday Getaway
Me and my friends had a wonderful stay for my birthday weekend. The home is spacious and was accommodating for all the different people in my group. We loved all the patio options and the game room is amazing! Also, 2 hot tubs! I feel like we have to stay again to make the most of all the home has to offer. The hosts are really sweet and responsive. The home was in amazing condition upon arrival. I would for sure love to stay here again :)

A great place to stay.
This is our second time staying here and it is close to the beach and if any problems a small text or call and it is taken care of. We do recommend looking online at a map with roadway conditions. Not for down there but your route as we had three ways and took the only one there and home that did not come to a standstill. The place is great for all ages.
