About this property

Paradise Found | Beachfront, Steps from the Beach!

This beachfront home is located in the close-in west end subdivision of Spanish Grant Galveston. Paradise Found is a roomy two-bedroom, one and a half bath home that will easily accommodate 5 guests. The Spanish Grant subdivision has lovely beaches and guests walk out the front door and directly out to the beach access walk over to the water's edge (over the sand dunes).

Paradise Found has a lovely covered deck area with Adirondack-style seating so guests can watch the sunrise in the morning and dream away the sunny afternoon under the shady cover of the deck. The patio the house features a closet with a full-size washer and dryer, outdoor heated shower, and large picnic table and charcoal grill.

The open concept living/dining/kitchen area is quaint as can be with cottage-style décor and a charming parasol at the end of the kitchen counter. The living area features a very large television, cable TV/WIFI, and DVD player with Netflix capabilities (bring your own login/password) for guest use. The kitchen features an open bar area for cool drinks while the chef prepares a fresh shrimp dinner for the family!

The primary bedroom has a queen bed and television and en-suite 1/2 bath, 2nd bedroom also has a queen bed plus a twin daybed. The 2nd bedroom also features an extra twin under the daybed for an optional sleeping arrangement. The bedrooms are roomy and comfortable with adequate storage and closet space to stow away suitcases and other vacation gear. Guests who stay at Paradise Found will return year after year for the cottage atmosphere in a beachfront home!

Spanish Grant is a quaint, cozy, welcoming, friendly, island beach village, established well before the ’90s, located just seven miles West of 61st Street, with just three rows of beach homes and offers multiple pathways to access the beach. The beach in Spanish Grant is not a drive-on beach, which many families with small children prefer.

NOTES
The couch is brand new, however the recliners are not setup to recline.
The owner has beach chairs, beach balls, toys, and a wagon for guest use. Please return back to garage clean for next guest.
There are three (3) approved public pedestrian pathways to the beach in Spanish Grant. One is at the end of Spanish Grant Blvd. and the other two are at the east and west ends of Ventura. DO NOT enter the beach at Buena Vista dunes or by cutting through private property to access the beach. Parking is only allowed on the beach side of the road on Buena Vista.

Good: Perfect location. Great access to the beach, right out the door and on to the beach. Close to town but just out of the chaos. CleanBad: Separate rental contract off which is required to be signed. Not terrible terms but not great either. Annoying. Separate verification process, again more annoying than anything. House is showing sign of age. Needs some facelift. Nothing major wrong just looking warn. Walls are papper thin. We could talk to our kids through the walls like the wall was not even there... We could hear them breathing at night.lol

Overall stay was amazing. The house was clean and had everything we needed. It was beautiful and perfectly located. Waking up to watching the ocean from the porch was beautiful. The only issue was we were given the wrong lockbox code and were stuck waiting outside for nearly two hours.

We had a nice stay at Paradise found. The only difficulty we had was that we were not given the correct code for the lock box to retrieve the house keys. We were able to call and get a new code easily. The keys themselves were tricky to use. The kitchen was nice and had everything we needed for our stay. The location was great and our family had a nice time.

The location is great, especially for families with kids. Being able to walk across to the beach is so nice. The majority of our stay was really nice allowed for a fun family vacation. The night before we left when we began packing we were greeted by several 3” cockroaches coming out of kitchen cabinets, a utility closet and living room cabinet. Not a fun way to end our trip. It was reported to the property management company the next day.

Cozy beach shack on a great beach!

This house was a perfect little place for the three of us to have a very quiet relaxing time. It may not be new and fancy but it was very clean, comfortable and was in a wonderful quiet part of the beach. It was wonderful to wake up to the amazing view and Is steps away from the water. We will definitely try to book this one again when the weather is warmer.

Great location

The location is excellent. The house was super cute although a little beat up lookin on the outside. I saw a few comments about the beds and I have to agree the beds could use some upgrading. Keep in mind to check galvestons beach conditions to make sure there are no rip current warnings before going in the water, we were unable to the full second day which was a bummer. Overall a great spot thats close to gas stations and not far from town.

Perfect few days with sea breezes and waves steps from the beach

Awesome location and house had all the amenities listed. Great that no driving on the beach is allowed at this part of the beach. Quiet and peaceful. Steps from the water is accurate. Deck was shady in the afternoon with cool breeze and comfy furniture to listen to the waves. Outdoor shower greatly appreciated, and there were beach toys in the garage too!

Family Spring break 24'

This home is right on beach front, beautiful deck view of the beach. Calm neighborhood, and calm beach since its mainly used by residents of the neighborhood. The beach is public, so there were some cars parked on the other side of street, but not too bad. The host has many useful items for beach: sand toys, wagon, chairs, fishing poles, and unbrella. House could use some exterior painting.

Nice Little Beach House

The house sits at an excellent location, on a dead end dirt road next to the beach with easy access right across. The porch has high chairs you can see over the railings at the beach and it is mostly shaded throughout the day. Inside is your usual beach interior, nothing fancy. It was comfortable, everything worked fine. We missed having a bbq grill that was supposed to be there and a couple other minor issues we brought to management's attention. Beds were comfortable. We enjoyed our stay there and would definitely stay again.

Except for having trouble with the key code. Everything was fine. You might consider adding more supplies- ie.dishwasher tabs and dish cloth for kitchen. Thanks for the abundance of bath towels.
