POINTE WEST, GALVESTON, 3 MINUTE WALK TO BEACH

DawnnRating, 5 stars47 months ago
The property is beautiful… there is a view from every window and balcony. You can see the ocean and the bay… unique for Galveston Island. There is a pond directly outside and with the fountain, which kept mosquitos away. The kitchen is good for entertaining a family, and there is a formal and outdoor dining area. I would suggest bringing a bed pillow, high quality pan, and extra roll of paper towels. Alex was nice and responsive. The resort is family oriented and the quiet was well worth the 20 minute drive. We will stay with this host again!
A beachside cottage is elevated on posts, allowing for parking and outdoor space below. The exterior features a light blue facade, white railings, and expansive decks on both levels. A gravel driveway provides access to the property, while neighboring cottages enhance the coastal community feel.

Cozy Coastal Retreat – Perfect for Your Getaway!

RobertoRating, 5 stars4 weeks ago
We had such a great time in Galveston. Schana’s place was spotless, beautifully set up, and located in a peaceful, private area with everything we needed close by. The beach was just a short walk away, which made it even better. Schana was incredibly responsive. For instance, when we noticed that the beach towels were missing, this was handled right away. The whole experience was smooth and enjoyable. We left feeling very happy with our stay and would absolutely book again.
The exterior of Wave 'N Sea showcases a light blue two-story home with a spacious wraparound deck and comfortable seating area. A circular fire pit surrounded by gravel is visible in the yard, with several palm trees swaying gently in the breeze.

Fabulous location just steps from Sunny beach (which was also not overly packed during our stay) which was super nice!! Sunrise on the balcony was breathtaking.

Searenity Pointe - Surfside 3 bedroom cottage

EricRating, 5 stars3 months ago
We had a wonderful stay at the cottage! The house is perfect for a family beach trip and Antonio was an excellent host - great communication with all the details needed up front. The ADA beach access was very close and easier to navigate with a wagon than others we’ve used. The place has comfy furnishings and we felt right at home! Specifically, the sofa, beds and linens nice and blackout curtains. We found everything we needed at the cottage: Everything needed for the resort pools and beach (adult and kid beach towels, sand toys, beach chairs, wagon, outdoor shower, etc.). Kitchen: a variety of skillets, pots, and pans, baking sheets, cooking utensils, cups, nice dual coffee machine for k-cup or a whole drip pot. Bathrooms: tidy and stocked with towels, travel toiletries, makeup removal wash cloths Bonus: toys and books for kids, TVs (bunk room, living room, downstairs patio), first aid kit, washer/dryer and deck/rocking chairs to watch the herons and turtles in the lagoon!

Clean house. Had everything you can think of in the kitchen for cooking / grilling. It was very nice to have a washer/Dryer. Backyard was pretty and loved the outside shower to rinse off after the beach. Michael was very responsive, professional, and kind.

AshtonRating, 5 stars2 months ago
We enjoyed our stay! The home was clean and cozy. Our favorite part was outside as the backyard was very private with a large privacy fence and a play set that our two children absolutely loved, making it easy to visit with family while they were entertained. Would stay again!
Two blue Adirondack chairs are positioned on a wooden deck overlooking the beach and ocean. A small table between the chairs holds two glasses, inviting relaxation while enjoying the scenic view of the waves and sky.

Poppy's Place Beachfront House

ShirleyRating, 5 stars13 months ago
We stayed at Tammy's place with our 2 grandsons. It is a lovely place. The house was spotless and in a great location. Our grandsons spent so much time on the beach which is just steps away from the house. My husband and I could sit on the covered porch and watch them dig for hours. Of course, we were right there with them when they wanted to go boogie boarding (3 boards available at the house). The house was well stocked with dishes, glasses and pots. Tammy gave us recommendations on where to grocery shop and even a nice restaurant down the road. If I had a question, she was very responsive and answered quickly. The hot tub was an added bonus which we all enjoyed at night. We couldn't have asked for a better place to stay. We certainly hope to be able to visit again. Thank you!
