About this property

Beachfront Bliss: Steps to beach/Views, sleeps 14

It's all about the VIEW!!! This is the place to make lasting memories. Enjoy this oasis by the sea, only steps from the ocean with endless views. This amazing beach house is perfect for groups of 12-14 in Playa San Luis neighborhood.

Take in the sounds of the waves while enjoying a morning cup of coffee or a cold afternoon beverage in the new Adirondack seating area. Relax while walking on the beach, collecting sea shells, building sand castles, and making memories with family and friends. Wade fishing is another favorite for our guests. The ease of being only steps from the beach allows you to have all of the conveniences of being at home while being able to bring food and drinks to the beach with ease. After a day at the beach, there is an outdoor shower to rinse off which is a favorite for visitors.

This serene beachfront home is on a quiet cul de sac and is right next to the beach walkover. It is beautiful year round! The large spacious living area looks out to the beach from all angles and the large deck faces east for the sunrise. The new windows and doors accent the spectacular view. On the deck, we offer outdoor seating areas that include two picnic tables, and six Adirondack loungers. The indoor dining has seating for 8 with 3 bar stools nearby. The home is perfect for gathering family or friends. In the evening the children can retreat to the upstairs media room, while the adults may take in some cards, games, or TV in the main living space. We recently replaced all of the windows and French doors.

The recently renovated master suite has a large king-size bed with its own stairway and private deck! There is a guest bedroom (queen bed), up a separate stairwell. It has a private deck & bathroom. The bedrooms downstairs include: one with a queen size bed and deck access, and two pull-out cots, and the fourth bedroom has 3 sets of bunk beds that sleep 6. The bunk room does not have access to the deck for safety. It adjoins to the other downstairs bedroom with an updated bathroom. The downstairs has also been recently renovated with new floors and windows.

This is the perfect beach house to share with friends and family. The driveway can accommodate up to four vehicles. We look forward to having you as our guests.

Weekend get away with the family

We enjoyed our stay very much! The beach access was so great and easy with three small girls! Beach was not busy and everyone loves their time there. House was well equipped with essentials needed for cooking and it was nice to have a washer and dryer to use each day for our beach towels Would definitely stay at this location again and would recommend to friends and family.

The house was perfect for our family. It was just what we need for our family Thanksgiving. The beds are comfortable, the bathroom had plenty of towels, the kitchen was stocked with more than just the basics. The Beachfront Bliss felt like home. I few negative but would NOT stop me from staying again. When we first arrived, the house has been closed for a while, therefore it has a musty smell (common for Galveston). Thank goodness the mosquitos were not out, we were able to open the beautiful doors to allow the ocean breeze to air out the house. The house was CLEAN! Although we found that the dishes/cookware were dishwasher clean not clean, clean. We rewash most dishes by hand before using them (no biggie). The location is perfect to the beach. I LOVED the dune area in front of the ocean. Great home for your family!

One of the best homes we’ve stayed in. The house setup was great, location was wonderful and clean. We were not able to use the pull out sofa bed because it was stuck but there were other beds that we were able to use.

Perfectly suited our needs. Plenty of room and we never felt like we were "tripping" over each other. The beach was my mom's favorite place to be. Our family had a nice, reflective time as we honored mom \granny\cousin and began a new chapter of our family without our matriarchic. We will be back,.
