Shore House: Sand Beneath, Waves at Your Doorstep!
We loved staying here and Steve was a great host! There were some plumping issues (something apparently the city has struggled with since the hurricane) but Steve was so responsive and helpful and had it fixed in no time! I would definitely recommend staying here if you are looking for a relaxing beach weekend!

Beachfront 1st Row
We have stayed at Terry and Katherine’s place before and as always WE ENJOYED!!! The beach front is awesome. The deck is PERFECT for watching boats, people, but for us, it was the sunrises!! The house isn’t cluttered and there’s lots of room in the living area! They allow my fur baby too which was amazing! The master bedroom was large and bed was comfy!! The kitchen had all we needed and overall we enjoyed their place! Definitely recommend to stay here! You just can’t beat the view!

Beachfront Paradise of Texas
We really enjoyed our stay at Vincent’s beach house. The beach is literally a few steps outside the front door. All the bedrooms and the livingroom have decks with a nice view of the beach. We stayed during Spring Break. The beach is private access so it was peaceful and was not crowded. The kids loved the hideaway spot at the top floor and made it their own little space. This place has a lot of space. The kitchen is fully equipped with a huge refrigerator. I would definitely stay again.

Waterfront..Breathtaking View..Great Fishing!
Very clean home with stunning views of the ocean. The beach is a short walk with tons seashells. We had a great time!

Front Row Beautiful Newer Beach Home
As always we enjoyed our stay. The house is just as described, and they're stocked with basically all the things. Super easy to get to, great location.

Front Row Beach House Unobstructed Gulf View
House is in a great location right on the beach with easy access to and from. Being able to sit out on the deck and listen to the ocean was very peaceful!

Galveston White House (Beachfront!!)
Great beach house! The view is amazing and right on the beach. We loved our stay there!

Seabatical Beach Front Family House
The house was perfect for a relaxing getaway. It was clean, the beds are comfortable, the kitchen is stocked and the beach front location can't be beat. Cathy was great to work with and very proactive in her communication. We would definitely rent again.
Beach house rentals with a pool

5-star home with pool + golf cart included option
We had a very enjoyable 4 days in Taras beautiful home. Tara did a tremendous job she thought of everything that a family would need including the above ground pool/toys /beach. Very clean and relaxing. We felt very comfortable and safe. We will definitely go back.

“ Coastal Castle of Galveston “ HEATED POOL & SPA!
My daughters and I, along with their families, enjoyed a wonderful week in Gloria's beautiful home. The outdoor oasis was enjoyed by all. You could walk down to the beach, there's a wagon available to haul beach chairs/toys. Very private backyard. You won't go wrong by reserving this today!

Over The Rainbow Beach Side Pool & Backyard
We had 75 degree weather and rain for 5 days straight in July. Who would have thought?! Having the hot tub and fire pit really saved the trip for us. We did make it down to the beach each day for a couple hours but it was rainy and cool so we came back and warmed up in the hot tub. House was very clean and had a great selection of beach toys to borrow. Terrible mosquitos, but I think thats normal for the area and the amount of rain. Overall we had a nice time and would return. Thanks Adam for sharing your home.

Heated Pool and Beachfront Oasis
My family and I stayed here, it was perfect! I had to reach out to Molly about the Internet being down and she immediately checked and got back to me. The beds were so comfy! You can hear the ocean waves it was so peaceful! I highly recommend this place! Very relaxing and the pictures don’t do it justice! I’ll definitely be back!

Mini resort! Pool and spa! 2 miles to Beach!
This was our third time staying at the Flip Flop Inn, and it remains our favorite AirBnB out of many, many that we have stayed at all over the world. We love the decor/atmosphere, and the house is simple and bright, with plenty of room for our two families of four, but still feeling like a simple house that is not stressful to manage while staying there (like some luxury rental homes can feel). The back deck is a very pleasant place to hang out and pass the time.

Trinity Bay Private Pool Getaway
Jonathan was an amazing host even thought some stuff came up, he was 100% responsive and attentive, the house was absolutely beautiful, we will definitely book the place again in the future!

Wander Galveston Beach
A great beach trip -absolutely stunning house- perfect kitchen so well equipped ! So well maintained ! New couches were a treat! Comfortable beds ! Amazing bathrooms! And the beach was so nice! So safe from cars as beach is pedestrian beach - unusual for Texas! New restaurant find : Coopers Landing was such a find - gorgeous great food! This was our second time visiting - and will not be our last ! Everyone loved it!!

Beachfront first row home with swim spa
The house is gorgeous and it has the most amazing views. Sunrise from the master bedroom windows was the highlight of each morning. The owners were helpful and very responsive - we had one or two small issues at checkin that they handled immediately. We loved the closet of board games! The area is quiet and there is only one grocery store but it had everything we needed. We didn’t go to any local restaurants. A few things to consider: the listing says 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms. This is true but one bedroom and bathroom is in an apartment downstairs so it wouldn’t be good for kids. It is a longer walk than it appears to the beach. It was fine for me and the kids but would’ve been way too far for someone with mobility challenges. The kitchen wasn’t as stocked as I had hoped (no real glass wine glasses, only plastic, not a lot of silverware, short supply of spatulas etc). Finally, there were no amenities for the beach, no buckets or shovels, no beach towels, so pack your own.

Mermaid Manor 1st row on the beach, dog friendly!
Perfect view and right on the beach. So many windows! The beds were comfortable and the full size washer and dryer were invaluable for all the beach time we enjoyed. We really enjoyed our stay and will look for availability here next time we are in Galveston.

Steps to the Beach +Sleeps 12 +Backyard
House was fantastic and perfect for our long weekend away with friends! Super walkable to the beach and easy access via golf cart or vehicle to nearby local spots. Angie was a great host and super responsive and quick to address any issues with the house.

Beachfront | Private Swim Spa | Pet Friendly
The ideal beach house for a weekend getaway. Amazing outdoor spaces, easy access to the beach, relaxing jacuzzi. The hosts were extremely informative and helpful. They were quick to respond when I had questions. Overall, a great experience that was worth every penny.

Beachfront | Fenced Yard | SwimSpa | 4 Bedrooms
Great place with all the amenities. Host gave great communication and responded to any questions.

Surfside House
We had a great stay at Casa Surfside. The house was clean and had everything we needed. Quality appliances and kitchenware that made cooking easy. Plenty of towels and toilet paper. Comfy furniture. Loved all the beach gear and toys for the kids! The location was excellent. Definitely recommend staying here!
