Shore Thing | Pet-Friendly & Water Views!

Welcome to Shore Thing, a brand-new coastal retreat located in the upscale community of The Park at Terramar on Galveston Island, Texas. This stylish 3-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom vacation home offers the perfect blend of comfort, charm, and convenience for families, friends, and even your furry companions. Whether you're here to unwind, explore, or make sun-soaked memories, Shore Thing is your ideal Gulf Coast getaway.

Step outside and soak up panoramic views from the spacious wrap-around deck — the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee or toast the evening with a glass of wine as the sun sets over Galveston. The home also features a ground-level outdoor space with charcoal BBQ grill, picnic tables for al fresco dining, and even an outdoor shower for rinsing off after beach adventures. Just steps away, the community pool offers a refreshing spot to cool off or bask in the Texas sunshine.

Inside, the open-concept design welcomes you with coastal flair and modern comforts. The bright, airy living area flows into a fully equipped kitchen, ideal for cooking up local seafood feasts, and a dining space that’s perfect for gathering with loved ones. A half bath on the main floor adds convenience, while the upstairs retreat offers three beautifully appointed bedrooms. The primary suite features a King bed, a spa-like en-suite with a walk-in shower and double sinks, and a private balcony with sweeping views of the Gulf — an ideal setting for peaceful moments. Two additional guest rooms — one with a King bed and the other with both a full and twin bed — share a well-appointed hall bath with a tub/shower combo, making it easy for families with little ones.

Unique features like the large wrap-around deck, private Gulf-view balcony, and dog-friendly policy (welcoming up to two dogs under 50 lbs.) set Shore Thing apart as a home that truly caters to relaxation and connection. Every bedroom is equipped with a TV for private downtime, and the entire home is designed with comfort and coastal elegance in mind.

When you’re ready to venture out, you’ll find Galveston’s West End full of charm and excitement. Spend your days exploring local beaches, fishing spots, and nature trails, or visit nearby attractions like Moody Gardens, Schlitterbahn Waterpark, and the Galveston Island Historic Pleasure Pier. Enjoy casual dining or fresh seafood at island favorites, and take in live music, local art, and beachside cocktails just a short drive away.

Book your stay at Shore Thing today and start your coastal escape on Galveston Island. Your unforgettable beach adventure is just a reservation away.

Very pretty but...

The house was very pretty but there was no closet access in the master bedroom so we had no where but one of the guest closets to hang our clothes which was very inconvenient and irritating and you had to disturb the other guests to get your clothes. The upstairs air conditioner was a nightmare at night. It was so hot in the two spare rooms that the guests in those rooms could not hardly sleep. Every time you turned around both thermostats were back on 75 degrees. You were constantly having to turn them down. As much as you spend you would think you would have control of the air while you were there. Both of the spare bedrooms the fans and lights would randomly come on...even in the middle of the night...very annoying! The hand towel dispenser was empty in the downstairs half bath so when you washed your hands you had to go into the kitchen to dry them. The upstairs master bathroom door would not close and if you forced it closed it would make a terrible noise. We killed 2 or 3 roaches in the master bedroom & master bathroom while we were there. We booked the house thinking there was pool access but the pool had a closed sign on it so the kids were disappointed. Unfortunately, we will probably not be renting this property again mainly due to the air conditioner situation. If you are going to control do it when it is not occupied by guests.
