Right on the beach and out of the hustle and bustle of town but close enough to everything.

Thanks for sharing about your experience at Sandbox. We know what you mean about those mosquitos! (Trust us, we wish they'd take a break from hanging around!) Our whole team here at Sand `N Sea hopes to welcome you again soon
Great location for a quiet beach vacation during a busy holiday weekend.
We really enjoyed this stay. We liked that is was a little further out from the city on a busy holiday weekend. There is a great deck on the top and bottom floor where were spent a lot of time watching our children play and chatting. It felt as private as you can be on a public beach. The house had all the proper tools we needed to make meals and was very clean. I also thought the bed was very comfortable and slept well where I usually struggle in most places. This is a great stay if you're looking to explore a quieter part of rural Galveston.

Beach front view
The view is wonderful from the deck of this small house . Bring your extras to make the stay more comfortable. The kitchen extras aren’t many. The sunrises and sunsets are spectacular
This is the perfect beach front house! We loved everything about it! Very clean, well equipped and we loved the fenced yard for our dogs. The downstairs patio with the tiki bar was neat and we’d sit out there during the evenings with our dogs and not have to worry about them getting out. We will definitely come back to the Sandbox! Thanks so much for a wonderful time!
Pros: Nice property for a single family. It’s located directly on the beach and at a good location. This property isn’t directly adjacent to any of the public access areas which means your beachfront is likely an uninterrupted view. It was affordable due to the smaller property size and for a smaller family there was still very adequate room. Very clean property and my cleanliness expectations are quite high. Beds/mattresses were nice and were comfortable. The deck is fully covered which leaves a good opportunity to sit outside during the afternoon sun.Cons:The only item I wish was different is that the mop/buckets are stored directly next to washer/dryer and covered only by a curtain. This was difficult to keep my young child away from. Some other small items to note: Second bathroom adjoining to the primary is narrow for the enclosed toilet and shower area. There is a property directly behind this one so they may be on their deck as you’re walking to/from the beach. I believe the beach access is shared but we never ran into the neighbors.
This home was perfect for our family trip! Grandma and Auntie enjoyed very comfy queen size bottom bunks. The grandkids got the top ones! Mom and dad had their private room and bath. We loved the covered porch, and felt lucky to have that — with the hot sun, and also in case of rain. The house was super clean, great kitchen and living area. The “only” downside was the path to the beach from the house. The good part: it was right next to the house and outside shower. The tricky part was the first 20 feet or so of the path was across a bumpy ditch that was hard to navigate. It would have been impossible for a stroller or mobility impaired individual.
