Additionally, the spacious Patios front and back for both sun lovers and those who prefer the shade, with breathtaking views of the Ocean and the Beach is only a stone's throw away....

There's no need to fight over the bedroom with the Ocean View! This house has 6 Bedrooms & 5.5 Bathrooms, 3 of which has Ocean Views & Full Bathrooms attached. Essentially 4 King Master Bedrooms with Ocean Views...

This 1st Floor is a terrific size with open layout for a family or group of close friends escaping to the Beach together. The Family Room has an Xlarge sectional, conversational seats throughout, large round table with 6 chairs and 6 barstools for the kitchen island. Plenty of seating for everyone! Full kitchen, equipped with all the necessary appliances, pots & pans, dishes and coffee & creamer with every stay.

You certainly won't have to venture far from the House to experience all that Galveston has to offer! Thanks to this fabulous location mere steps away from the ocean, it's likely that you'll want to spend the majority of your trip lounging on Galveston's warm sandy beaches or swimming in the Gulf of Mexico. This property is by far the best location for visiting Galveston, in a small, quiet, gated community (gatecode required) which is located on the Gulf of Mexico side of the island, right next to Stewart Beach(best family beach in Galveston with volleyball courts and volleyball tournaments, sandcastle competition blocks away, concerts, and food truck events, helicopter tour pad, etc. all throughout the summer. Only 1.5 miles from Downtown Galveston (the Strand) and Historic Sites, 2 miles from Pleasure Pier (which you can see from the Patio) and next to the Seawall. The Galveston Seawall is a wonderful place to walk, bike, shop or simply relax while admiring the beachfront scenery, and it ends right next to the house. If you don’t know Galveston, this house is centrally located and is the best Galveston has to offer. You won’t be disappointed!

Great House for our Beach Blitz soccer tournament!

We had 5 families staying together for the Beach Blitz soccer tournament on East Beach. The house was beautiful, spacious, and the layout was awesome for a large group, plenty of room and more than enough bathrooms, towels, and linens. Thr kitchen was well stocked with plenty of dishes that allowed us to cook large meals. The private beach was awesome and a short walk to the entrance. We had the best time!

Great location but needs a refresh

Great location, wonderful view, plenty of parking. Bedrooms were nice and beds comfortable . However some of house needs work , flooring cracked,gapped, sheets were thin and didn't fit well. Gas grill non working (host said they will replace so check if that happened) no ice machine in the fridge/freezer. Upstairs ac was broken as we checked in but host did a great job brining in portable units and replacing it the next day. Really can't beat the view from the porch. Lots of beach things like chairs toys etc to use.

A total Gem right on the beach!

the ultimate location for our extended weekend stay! Immaculate views of the beach, sunrise and sunset! The balcony views of the beach were unobstructed and gorgeous! Property was beautifully decorated and well maintained! Had everything we wanted for a beach getaway! Hosts response was immediate and warming. Location was on point- beach access, private community - very close to restaurants and the strand. Highly recommended!
