Hi we stayed at Crystal Cove a few years ago - they did supply both beach towels & toiletries then but if you email the hotel directly they can confirm up to date info
I think you would have to get two buses - one to Bridgetown then one to Oistins or a taxi would be approx 80 BDS or more
There isnt much around Crystal Cove but it is on the main road into Holetown so buses /taxis are easy to get. We were in a garden view room and didnt hear any road noise and had a view of the sea too :)
It only takes approx 10 -15 mins by bus into Holetown - Surfside bar is right on the beach and has steel pan on a Sunday or there is the street party in 1st/2nd St as well.
If they still have the free water taxi between Colony Club & Tamarind make use of it LOL it is a lovely way to see the coastline and Paynes Bay where Tamarind is is lovely and the beach at Colony Club was too - also from CC it is only a few mins walk into Holetown from there. You could use all the facilities at these though meals & drinks you had to pay for but got a discount and you could book these to your room at Crystal Cove if you didnt want to carry money with you. Check with the hotel when you arrive if they still have the same arrangement.
The nearest bar to Crystal Cove was Scarletts - not cheap but a great cocktail bar that does light meals .
IWe found the hotel very quiet in the evenings and so went out most nights, but that could have been just at that time. .
They do have a fish fry up at Moontown - but it is not on the same scale as Oistins and just mainly kareoke as entertainment - food was good at Mertons though .
Hope this helps
