Beachside Home w/ POOL, 2 Covered Decks - 2 Blocks to Beach, 9 mi from Downtown
We like to say H2O stands for Head 2 Oasis! The private pool and 2 covered decks make this gorgeous beachside vacation home the perfect Island escape for couples or family getaways.
The open floor plan with a large sectional sofa, chaise and comfortable accent chairs invites you to kick bak and relax. The two king-sized primary suites both have deck access and private en suite bathrooms with double vanities. With an additional queen bedroom and bunk room, everyone will be happy to have their own space.
Feast on morning meals at the breakfast bar for 4, or gather everyone around the dining table for 8 for a fun family meal. Cooking is so easy in the fully-equipped kitchen that everyone will want to help out.
After a leisurely morning meal, bring snacks and drinks down to your own personal paradise. Enjoy the seating area under the covered deck or take a dip into the private pool. If you prefer to relax in the sandy sun, the beach is just a short 2 block walk!
The convenient, enclosed outdoor shower makes it easy to wash up before heading back inside after a long day of island fun. When you’re ready to unwind, the large sectional sofa and accent chairs can easily accommodate everyone in the comfortable living room. The hard part is choosing between a game night or movie night!

Thanks for sharing about your great experience at H2O! Our whole Sand `N Sea team was thrilled to hear that your family enjoyed your stay. We hope to see you back again soon!
This house is in a lovely neighborhood in extremely close proximity to the nearly private beach. The house is very spacious, the bunk room is wonderful for the kids, and the kitchen was fully stocked. Having your own pool is also a major bonus. The only con is that there was no beach chairs or beach towels. Otherwise it was an excellent stay.
We stayed at this property with my brother and his family. The home was just as pictured. Gorgeous view, nice easy walk to the beach, beautiful pool. Since we were staying with another family, we absolutely loved having two master suites that walked out to a shared deck. The kitchen was well stocked. Everything was in great working order. Hope we can visit again!

Thank you for the wonderful review of H2O. We are delighted to hear that you and your family enjoyed your stay, from the gorgeous view to the well-equipped kitchen. It's especially great that the layout with the two master suites worked well for your group. We appreciate your kind words and will keep our fingers crossed we can welcome you back again soon!
This is our 2nd time renting this home. Our little grandson calls it "the blue house" and is always asking when we can go back. This house is perfect for our family in both size and location. It is a quiet neighborhood, very close to the beach with a lovely, private pool. It is clean, bright and cheery. The Sand N Sea staff are great to work with. We hope to be back soon
This was a wonderful home for a multigenerational family vacation. There was room for everyone to spread out and have their own space. We brought our son, daughter-in-law and our two grandchildren aged 6 and 2. Everyone loved the house, the private pool and of course the beach. It was very peaceful and quiet in the evenings. The two private King suites were great, the bathrooms outstanding, and the bunk room was just adorable. The big kitchen and table made making a meal simple. Our little ones keep asking when we get to go back; hopefully next year.
We enjoyed this property quite a bit. Two families plus grandma were very comfortable. One room on lower level was great so grandma could limit climbing stairs. Beds were pretty good. The kitchen is outfitted with all the gear you need.
Management company is very attentive. We had an issue with the dryer and they came and addressed quickly.
Location is very good being in a nice neighborhood with newer properties and close to Galveston city. Beach is technically public but generally only sees limited beach goers who are staying in the neighborhood since you can’t drive onto the beach here. But beach access from neighborhood is very good.
