About this property

Best porch in the neighborhood!

This perfect little beach getaway will take the stress out of your day and have you heading home relaxed! The home was rebuilt from the studs and has everything need; comfortable furnishings, large covered porch, open kitchen and cool breezes.

I have four children and when I am at the beach I want our stay to be as low maintenance and stress-free as possible. This house has everything you need: laminate floors, well-equipped kitchen, washer/dryer, dishwasher, outdoor shower (with hot water) and wi-fi! Bring your bathing suits and sunscreen!

The location is ideal! The house is on the third row, so it is a short stroll to the water. Bermuda Beach is only 10 miles from the Strand, so shopping and restaurants are close by!

Our prices include all fees. No hidden fees.

We had a fantastic stay at this beach house! The location is perfect, just a quick walk to the beach and less than 10 minutes from the main part of town. The house was great, and the host was absolutely wonderful, making the entire experience even better. We couldn’t have asked for a better stay and can’t wait to rent this place again. Highly recommend!

The host Lindsey was very very nice. But the place smelled extremely musty and stayed that way the entire weekend. There is no view of the beach nor was there a BBQ as shown in the pictures. Other than that we enjoyed our weekend.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time here! The location was ideal, close to the large beaches and away from the hustle and bustle, yet still convenient for trips to town. The setup was perfect for our family, creating many memorable moments. We enjoyed quiet mornings on the spacious porch. The kids enjoyed borrowing the sand toys at the beach. We would definitely return here for future visits to the island!

This was a great location and good deal for a family weekend getaway! We like staying more to the west to avoid the "busy" side of Galveston and this did it! Beaches were easily accessible and the house was great for our needs!

Great Stay

My family of 5 really enjoyed our stay. We have a 6, 4 & 3 yo and the house was perfect for us. Location really is so close to the beach— very easy walk (and no long walk over sand dunes like many other areas), & also a short drive to the seawall to venture out for activities and dinner. Would definitely stay here again
