Star Fish Getaway

This house is absolutely gorgeous! Literally steps from the beach and close to local restaurants and food stores. The house was clean, had everything we needed and more. We each had our own space, for a large family thats always difficult to achieve. But not here! The rooms were tidy and cozy, very relaxing after a long day at the beach! The host was extremely accommodating, even answering my questions while on vacay in Europe! She was so helpful and sweet.We loved it and hope we can stay here again. See you soon Starfish

About the host

Hosted by Christine Madsen

Host profile image
ilove hosting because it allows me to share my passion for coastal living with others. Growing up in Rhode Island and now living in Hawaii, I’ve always been drawn to the ocean and the sense of relaxation it brings. Creating a space where guests can unwind, make memories, and enjoy the beauty of Surfside Beach is truly rewarding!

Why they chose this property

I chose to buy a property in Surfside Beach, Texas, because it perfectly combines natural beauty, a relaxed atmosphere, and strong investment potential. Unlike crowded tourist destinations, Surfside Beach offers a peaceful, small-town charm with stunning oceanfront views and direct access to the pedestrian-only beach. This makes it a safer and quieter retreat, ideal for families and guests looking to unwind. Plus, being just an hour from Houston, it’s a convenient getaway for city dwellers seeking a coastal escape.

Beyond the beautiful scenery, Surfside Beach has a strong vacation rental market, with visitors drawn to its fishing, surfing, kayaking, and local hotspots like Sharkies Bar and Grill, which is just a short walk from my property. The friendly community and steady growth in the area made it an exciting place to invest. Owning a home here allows me to share my love of beachfront living while providing guests with a truly special and relaxing experience.

What makes this property unique

The only property on the pedestrian beach with a hot tub, just a short walk to Sharkies Bar and Grill.
