Spectacular Beach View, Spacious Home with Large Deck
- Minimum stay:2 nights
- Internet:Yes
- Pets allowed:Yes
- Wheel chair accessible:No
Whether you want a quiet getaway or fun filled family time, this is the spot for you. You can sit on the deck and watch the sun rise over the ocean or partake in all the activities the beach and Galveston have to offer.
Since we are located in Terramar Beach, we are the 'country' of Galveston. We are approximately 20 min. from the heart of Galveston where you can partake in the many activities and sites the city has to offer.
There is plenty of open space and privacy, and the beach is just a short walk across the road. The yard is fenced in as well for your little rascals (kids or dogs!)
The open layout of our beach house is what we fell in love with, especially if you bring your friends or family. The main rooms are spacious and the kitchen is well stocked; enough to please chef's of any level. However, for those non-chef's, we have a grill downstairs.
There are three bedrooms, each room has a theme and is wonderfully decorated. You will feel at home at the beach every moment of your stay. The master bedroom is lovely with a master bath. The guest bath is bright and cheery. The second bedroom is by far the coolest, from the light blue/turquoise beach theme, to the 'artistic' door headboard. The third bedroom is great for children, it contains two single beds and red/blue theme. It reminds me of a sailboat and is perfect for children.
We would love for you and your family to come for a luxurious get away. Our home is your home, don't be strangers. Here, you will laugh, have fun, and most of all make memories with your friends and family.

Amazing house that is well stock with supplies. The view was nice and you can actually hear the ocean while you are on the balcony. The house was clean enough for us neat freaks! I would recommend this property to my friend and co workers. I will be renting this property again for my birthday getaway next year. Thanks Eva and Charlene for making this process easy!Owner response: Thank you for taking time to give us such a glowing review, really appreciate it. Glad you enjoyed your stay.

The house is beautiful. Me, my husband and my cousin and her husband went the day after New Years for a few days. Of course we knew the weather wouldn't be great and it wasn't. We did have one beautiful sun shiny day that we took advantage of but the other days were cloudy and cold. We still had a great time. Overall the house was very clean, but there were a couple of things that need to be taken care of. The shower curtain in the guest bathroom was very moldy and needs to be replaced and the air ducts were very dirty in two rooms and need to be cleaned. I would absolutely go back to this house. Hopefully we will pick a better time of the year the next time.Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway.
Owner response: We appreciate your taking the time to give a review on the beach house. During the slow season (winter months)we have been making improvements on the house, unfortunatley we might have missed a couple of issues. We will definately get the things that you mentioned taken care of. Glad you had a good time. Thank you again. Eva LaFour Property Manager

The beach house was everything we hoped for. The size was perfect for our group and it was stocked with everything we needed to make us feel at home. The location to the beach was wonderful, just a short walk. The house was clean and well-maintained, and the fenced in yard was a plus for taking our dog. We will definitely be back to enjoy this house with our family and will recommend this to our friends.Recommended for: Sightseeing, adventure seekers, age 55+, families with teenagers, pet owners, romantic getaway, families with young children, girls getaway.

This rental property was great! The listing was accurate regarding the location of the property the view of the beach, the ease of access to the property. The house was spacious, well kept and we were surprised to find that we really didn't need to bring much with us except the food we required. All in all I would rent this property again as well as recommend it to other friends and family members.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 2/2

We had a nice stay at this comfortable house for the week of the 4th of July. We rented the house for our daughter's 4th birthday party, and for the 3 of us and our dog...it was really nice. The house has a great floor plan, nice views of the water and gets a great cool breeze. The beach is much better than Galveston, just understand the water is murky and there is lots of seaweed...but if you understand that and the critical role this beach plays to the ecosystem of the area, it is pretty cool. Great bird watching, and crabbing at night. Sand that is great for sand castles and lots of sticks for the dogs to play with. There were some pluses and minuses though. Pros: - Great layout - Super comfortable couches - Nice selection of DVD's to enjoy after spending too much time in the sun - Access to a pool....although it is VERY crowded and not very clean - Nice views of the beach - Well stocked kitchen with most everything you need (see cons below) - Daughter loved the outside shower - Closing the storm shutters made it pitch black and very easy to sleep in - Open lot next to and behind the house made playing catch with the kiddos and letting the dog run around very easy Cons: - VERY far from grocery stores. We thought we did okay stocking up, but be warned...30-40min roundtrip if you want to "run" into Galveston for dinner or to a real grocery store - There is a little store in Jamaica Beach but it has a poor selection and is way overpriced - Beach access it a little tricky as you can't just walk across the street, have to drive over and park. If you have a golf cart or can rent one...that would be the way to go - No blender. I for the life of me can't figure out why a beach house would not have a blender - HUGE water bug/roach in the hall bath, good luck killing him....he is smart! - I wish the people didn't write certain things in the guest book....made it hard for my daughter to sleep - Beds not very comfortable, very hard - The grill situation is kind of a joke. The gas grill is corroded and doesn't work, and the charcoal grill is small and leaks air all over Overall we had a great time, loved watching the kids play in the sand, splash in the ocean and watching the dog having a blast swimming and herding the kids in the ocean. Enjoyed evenings on the deck with some grilled fish and a cocktail in hand. Just a few minor things to know and you will have a fun time here. People in the neighborhood are great too!Recommended for: Age 55+, families with teenagers, pet owners, families with young children, girls getaway.

Nice base for beachtime and visiting Galveston. Big kitchen and living room are very comfortable for 4-6 adults.Either drive to the beach (1 minute) or walk by crossing two drainage ditches and highway. Lots of movies on hand, cable TV and wifi included. Drive to downtown is about 20 minutes. Enjoyed fresh sandwiches at the Lunchbox Cafe, coffee and dessert at Mod Cafe, and pizza at Gino's off Stuart/61st. Had excellent dinner at Waterman's upscale restaurant next to the Galveston Country Club. Only problems were a large waterbug in hall bathroom at night and well-stocked kitchen had no blender. Vacant lot next door is flat and could be used for volleyball set-up.Good value for family vacation in relaxed setting. Since this is on second floor, will need to watch small children on stairs and balcony - there was a gate available.Recommended for: Sightseeing, families with teenagers, families with young children, girls getaway.
Owner response: When you live in the south, you get bugs occasionally. The house has been exterminated, so that should take care of the problem. We have added a blender to the many other amenities that the kitchen already had. We are newbies to the beach house rental business. Appreciate all comments and suggestions.

About the owner: We are here to help your sunrise and sunset filled days be as easy as can be. As first time renters we are open to new ideas, and trying as hard as we can to accommodate you, to get the best possible outcome. We love just walking along Terramar beach, and shelling. We have three dogs that we bring down with us each time, and love the beach. So come along, because if you love nature, and the sea breeze as much as we do, you will love our house!
Why the Owner Chose Terramar Beach:
We chose this house because of the view. We searched for months, found a few houses, but none came close to this view AND the beautiful house.
