About this property

NEWLY REMODELED OVERSIZED 2nd row beach house sleeps 14+, 75 yards to the water.

Cheaper than beach first row houses, but only 25 yards further from the beach with an almost identical view and feel (no roads to cross, we're on the beach side of the main road). The wind and ocean spray are there. That magical beachy smell of the ocean.... Our roomy, beachy comfortable 2nd row Gulf of Mexico house with full amenities including a kitchen full of utensils and dishes, a full sized washer and dryer, three large bedrooms down and a giant studio/playroom/room-full-of-4-giant-bunkbeds with a full bath upstairs is just 75 yards to the beach on the beach side of San Luis Pass Road. You can listen to the waves all night! The house has a large kitchen table and a newly remodeled open kitchen so everyone can work together to make dinner.

It has great WiFi with smart TV's (Netflix, Amazon Prime, etc.), ceiling fans, standing fans, good a/c in the summer and warm toasty heating in the winter upstairs and down. The beach is wide, clean and not busy and RIGHT THERE! The sand is soft and fluffy. This is a perfect get away spot about 13 miles west of the end of the Seawall. Also has a coffee maker, toaster, microwave, brand new dishwasher, new retro fridge and new oven/stove. We do our best to keep it stocked with dishes and flatware and cookware, salt/peper, cooking spray, coffee and fixins. We've got dish soap and laundry soap and full sized washer/dryer. We've got an ironing board and iron. We stock toilet paper, paper towels, and bath towels. It's got smoke alarms, and a blasting hot and cold outdoor shower. Two new beach-side decks (upper and lower), too! You will love it!

Dear Rashelle, Thank you for your great five star review. We are also big fans of the view from our house. It is on the second row with no roads to cross and you can clearly see and hear the waves. We just extended our deck to double its size. Come stay with us again! Mike

Thank you Gilbert for another 5 STAR review. We're happy you had a good time at our beach house. We love that it's so close to the beach with no paved roads to cross. The best part is being able to come back and forth to get a cold drink, more sunscreen, or use the bathroom without packing up your beach stuff. Come back soon! Mike

About the host

Hosted by Mike Engelhart (for Hijo de Playa, LLC)

Host profile image
We're excited to own and share this awesome beach house with you and your family and friends. We find it so relaxing, and such a short walk to the water across a wide sandy beach, that we know you'll love it too. Plus, we just remodeled to add wood-look tile floors throughout the downstairs, a brand new kitchen, and a fresh coat of paint and new ceiling fans.

Why they chose this property

We chose this house because it was the best combination of closeness to the beach, and roominess and comfort. There's room for at least 14 people, and a full complement of amenities inside, and activities nearby.

What makes this property unique

In this beach house, you can stay in a quiet part of Galveston Island, with a wide, roomy, sandy beach. At the same time, you're just 20 minutes from all of the bustling activities on the Seawall. You have free, ample parking, and you're AT the waterfront.
