About this property

Cozy Beach House with Ocean Views, Fire Pit & Game Room

Beachy bohemian style, refreshing sea breezes, and peek-a-boo ocean views combine to create this laidback coastal retreat. With sun-drenched porches and light-filled living spaces, this comfortable bungalow has the space for 12, an outdoor shower, tons of deck space, and a barbeque area with a charcoal grill. Your crew will love the ocean breezes and easy access to Terramar Beach. Mix up a pitcher of margaritas and kick back at this delightful Texas coast cottage.

Location: Terramar Beach community of Galveston, Texas

Beach access: Terramar Beach access point is a 30 second car ride or 3-4 minute walk away.

Community Amenities: Guests have access to the Terramar beach community pool— open Memorial Day thru Labor Day— and the boat launch and marina with the provided keys.

Rent BeachBox: Looking for beach gear for your Galveston getaway? We have you covered! Beach chairs and tents can be ready at the house upon your arrival. Message us for details and rates.

WIFI: Free high-speed WIFI is available throughout the home.

Cable: We provide Roku with access to Sling TV for live television channels. Guests are welcome to log into their own Amazon Prime, Netflix, or other streaming service apps as well.

Pet policy: Up to 2 pets are welcome in our home with a $25 fee per pet. We ask that pets stay off all furniture, are cleaned up after in the yard, and aren't left alone inside the home unless in a crate or kennel. Please message us if you’re planning on bringing your furry friend!

Parking: There is room for 4 cars in the driveway.

Party Policy: No parties are allowed at our home. Please look elsewhere if that is the intent of your trip.

The main level great room is open and inviting, with airy vaulted ceilings and crisp white shiplap detail. The streamlined kitchen has wood tone cabinets topped with quartz countertops. A peninsula bar has seating for four people, and the dining table has additional seating for six. Pack up some snacks for the beach, serve a quick lunch to your crew, or prepare an elaborate dinner— the kitchen is fully-stocked and completely accommodating for whatever amount of cooking you want to do— or not do!

The primary bedroom is down the hallway and features a queen-size bed. An attached half bath adds a bit of privacy, while a glass door leads out to the sunny back porch. A second bedroom has another queen bed and twin bunk bed. A full bathroom with a tub/shower combo is accessible from the hallway. Game room fun awaits on the ground level, with a queen bed, twin bunk bed and full sofa bed, plus arcade games, a TV, half bathroom and washer/dryer!

For a blissful beach day, the access point for Terramar Beach is right around the corner, and the friendly community lets you feel like a Texas coast local. It’s also an easy drive to the Galveston Strand for dining and shopping, or to Pleasure Pier for amusement park fun.

Post Prom

We had a few kiddos come and hang out with us after prom. It was a great place for them to be supervised while also having their own spot! The downstairs room was PERFECT!

Nice location, a little rough inside

We stayed here the night before we boarded a Royal Caribbean cruise. While the location wasn't close to the cruise terminal, it was very close to the beach in a quiet community, which we loved. However, the house itself was a little rough. There was a lot of little things that added up - the couch was super dirty, the shower curtain was torn up, the water never got hot during a shower, the bed frames in the bottom bedroom were broken, there were remotes missing for the tv's and the remote that was there was almost unusable because the buttons were so worn and half didn't work, there were soft spots in the flooring. The check in and out process was easy and communication was good, but again, the house itself is just a bit rough. It worked out ok for a one night stay, but I probably wouldn't have enjoyed staying there longer term.

Decent but some dead bugs

Everything was okay. They did allow us to check in early which was nice. The place was overall clean however, we did find dead roaches. Needs a good walk through prior to having guests. It was a little off putting.

We had an absolutely amazing time. The beach box stay made it even better, the ease of check in and out and the overall comfort of the place! The room at the bottom was great for the older kids and great for Mom and Dad!!! Would most definitely stay again!

Great stay!

Great location if you want to get away from the busy areas of Galveston. There is beach access straight out of the community and a small store minutes away. The house itself is very cute and had plenty of room and everything we needed to make our meals. It was clean and everything worked. We didn't realize the garage room was separate from the upstairs, but that wasn't too big of a deal. Our older kids loved the privacy. Communication with the management was great and we had no issues during our stay. We'd definitely stay here again.

Short stay

House was very clean with an overpowering smell of bleach. There is only 1 full bath/shower. The only other shower is outside. Toilet in the lower bedroom is not and stinks up the bedroom when used. Downstairs bedroom has a nice tv but it would not connect to Wi-Fi so was useless. We found roaches of varying sizes in the upper rooms and lower rooms. The downstairs bedroom gets full of mosquitoes in the evening due to gaps in the door frame.Do not recommend.Host was easy to talk to. Beautiful area. Disappointed in the state of the house.

Worst stay ever at a Galveston beach house

The listing said there was a dishwasher; there was not. There was no pool key provided, so we could not access the neighborhood pool as the listing said we would be able to. There were not enough bath towels for all our guests. 11 guests, and 7 towels were laid out for us. We found 3 more in a closet that was blocked off, so then we had 10. I had to go to the store to buy a bath towel. Also not enough silverware for 11 guests, so we had to wash dishes (by hand!) constantly. Also no dish drying rack provided. One of the bar chairs and the child high chair tray were broken. There was dog poop in the yard, and roaches all over the kitchen (killed one almost every time we opened the pantry door). Would not recommend.

Cute decor

It was a cute little house! The third bedroom is downstairs in the finished out garage, I must have missed that in the description. The beds in the downstairs are just a mattress on the floor (no frame) and were not very comfortable. The community pool is nice but the clicker to get in was not in the home so someone in the pool had to let us in. I know sometimes a homeowner can’t help it but we saw multiple cockroaches. Overall a nice house just the things that we noticed.
