The Beach Experience
This home offers easy, stress-free access to the Texas Gulf Coast. You’re just steps from the sand, making it simple to head back and forth throughout the day without packing up or loading the car. Morning coffee walks, sunset strolls, shell hunting, and spontaneous beach time are all part of the rhythm here.
This stretch of beach near Gilchrist is wider and less crowded than central Crystal Beach, giving families and groups more space to relax, spread out, and enjoy the coast at their own pace.

Outdoor Living Is the Star
The outdoor space is where this home truly shines. The half-acre yard is rare for the Crystal Beach area and gives everyone room to enjoy their vacation without feeling crowded. Kids and dogs have space to move, while adults relax on the deck, gather by the fire pit, or soak in the hot tub after a long beach day.
The outdoor cooking setup is a favorite for groups. From quick breakfasts on the griddle to slow cooks on the smoker or grilling over the fire pit grate, meals are designed to be easy, social, and outdoors. After the beach, rinse off in the outdoor shower before settling in for the evening.

Hot Tub & Evening Relaxation
The hot tub is a popular way to unwind after sun, salt, and sand. Evenings tend to stretch longer here, with guests moving between the deck, fire pit, and hot tub while enjoying Gulf breezes and open skies. With less light pollution than busier beach towns, stargazing is excellent on clear nights.

Inside the Home
Inside, the home is bright, comfortable, and designed for groups. The open layout keeps everyone connected while still allowing space to relax. Bedrooms are arranged to comfortably accommodate families and mixed adult groups without feeling crowded.
The kitchen is fully equipped for real cooking and flows naturally into the indoor dining and outdoor cooking areas. Seating and dining spaces are sized for shared meals, games, and downtime after beach days.

Tech, Comfort & Convenience
Fast Starlink Wi-Fi supports streaming, remote work, and keeping everyone connected. Smart TVs, full laundry, and practical storage make longer stays easy and comfortable.

Parking is generous, with space for multiple vehicles, trailers, or carts. For EV drivers, the Level 2 on-site charger is a major convenience. Arrive, plug in, and enjoy your stay without searching for public charging, ideal for trips from Houston, Dallas, Austin, and beyond.

The Area
The home is located near Gilchrist on the Bolivar Peninsula, just outside of Crystal Beach. This area is known for its quieter pace, open beaches, and relaxed atmosphere, while Crystal Beach restaurants, groceries, and local attractions are only a short drive away.
Guests enjoy beach driving, fishing, shelling, bird watching, and wide-open coastal views. Evenings are calm and peaceful, making it easy to unplug and slow down after busy days.

Why Guests Choose This Home
Guests choose this home because it removes friction from beach travel. Easy Gulf access, generous outdoor space, real cooking setups, and thoughtful amenities make it easy for groups to relax together. Whether you’re here for family time, beach days, grilling, or simply slowing down, the house is set up to support it.
If you’re looking for a well-equipped Gulf Coast beach house near Crystal Beach with room to breathe, space to gather, and conveniences that make travel easier, this Bolivar Peninsula retreat delivers.

Great stay!

Our family very much enjoyed our short October stay at this property. The house was clean and well stocked with essentials, as well as a full range of kitchen equipment. There is a great ocean view from the porch and short walk to the beach. The owner is very responsive and had our one small issue taken care of the same day. Thank you, Chris and Ana, for sharing your home with us.

Incredible place!

Our stay at Rayo De Sol was amazing. We stayed only for a weekend getaway but my family and I are already talking about staying here again for longer. The property and house itself is beautiful. Communication with the host and property manager just can't be beat, they were on top of everything. Absolutely would recommend this house to anyone.

Perfect Beach Getaway

My husband, myself and our 5 year old daughter stayed here during spring break and LOVED this place. The location of the house to the beach is a 2 minute walk. The beach was clean and we loved the abundance of seashells to collect. We enjoyed the outdoor space at this house the most, the upstairs patio was spacious and my daughter loved to play up there and my husband and I lounged/read enjoyed the view of the ocean. We used the firepit and hot tub several nights downstairs. Bonus was this was a quiet area and houses were not right on top of each other which was nice. Loved it, highly recommend!!

Great spot and clean home

The house was very comfortable . They had the essentials to accommodate us . House was clean and very spacious . Loved the location . Host was very responsive when I called / texted about anything in the house . It was very chilly when we went but they had heaters on the patio with propane gas so it kept us warm while we were outside. Definitely recommend . We will be back once weather is warmer.

Weekend Getaway

We traveled with kids aged 8 months, 1, 2, 6, 9, and 17 as well as two couples and we truly enjoyed the space and the amenities offered. The kids had their own space that was safe for them to play and entertain themselves and the patio outside was very secure and allowed for the younger kids to play outside as well. Host was very responsive and helped us when needed. We truly wanted to extend our stay an additional day but the property was already booked otherwise we would've stayed an extra day. My only suggestion would be for more laundry pods, other than that this place was awesome and we'd book again!

Wonderful Vacation Home!

My family and my in-laws stayed here! The house is clean and decorated so nicely! Perfect set up, the hosts have thought of everything. Everything we needed, they had it! Adults stayed in the two main bedrooms and all the cousins stayed in the bunk room. They loved getting to stay in one room together. The bunk beds are not twin sized, they are nice full size beds. Blankets to get cozy on the couch and wonderful games for family fun. The deck is perfect and faces the ocean. Wonderful view with a nice breeze. Walking distance to the beach and not crowded. We will be back! Thank you to the hosts, excellent property!

Great place to stay

We really enjoyed our stay at Rayo de Sol. This home has a convenient location right off of the highway and just a short little walk to the beach with no excess traffic. The neighborhood is small and quiet which makes for a peaceful stay. The beach in front of the neighborhood was also quiet and not crowded one bit. When you first arrive, you'll find that there is plenty of room downstairs for games and hanging out. Upstairs, the balcony is large and has plenty of seating. You can hear and see the waves from there, which adds a peaceful touch. Inside, pops of yellow provide a cheerful mood. The home was clean and roomy and was well stocked. We thought the beds were very comfy and loved the soft pillows. We greatly appreciated that a pack and play and a high chair was provided as we traveled with a 1 year old. Very nice touch. Other nice little touches were a few toys for very young children, the hammock, soap in the outdoor shower, choice of grills, a cooler and the so much fun, colorful party lights. We highly recommend this home. Thank you for sharing it with us!

Sobre o anfitrião

Anfitrião: Chris Goulet

Imagem do perfil do anfitrião
Chris and Ana are travel fanatics and love taking their children and animals on adventures. Durning their travels they've learned what makes for a wonderful stay and they have put a lot of thought into the experience you'll have staying at Rayo De Sol.

Por que o anfitrião escolheu essa propriedade

We chose this neighborhood because it represents everything people love about Crystal Beach: wide-open shoreline, uncrowded stretches of sand, friendly neighbors, and a peaceful atmosphere you simply can’t find in the more congested parts of Galveston. This area gives you the feeling of having your own private coastal hideaway while still being only minutes from restaurants, The Big Store, local bars, golf cart rentals, and all the small-town charm that makes the Bolivar Peninsula special.

Our part of the beach is known for being family-friendly, quiet in the mornings, relaxing in the evenings, and easy to access at any time of day. The walk to the sand is short enough that you can come and go freely without loading up a car or worrying about parking. It’s ideal for sunrise strolls, shell hunting, evening fires, and long days spent relaxing by the water. Guests consistently say the location gives them the best of both worlds: convenience without crowds.

What we love most about this neighborhood is how it encourages people to slow down and connect. The sky opens up at night for incredible stargazing. The sound of the waves carries softly across the houses after dark. Families ride golf carts along the beach road, kids play in the yard without traffic noise, and the entire area has a laid-back coastal rhythm that makes it easy to unwind.

Whether you’re enjoying local seafood, exploring the ferry to Galveston, watching dolphins along the shoreline, or simply relaxing under the huge Texas sky, this neighborhood is the perfect backdrop for the kind of beach trips people remember for years.

O que faz essa propriedade ser única?

Rayo De Sol stands out because it delivers the kind of indoor-outdoor coastal experience that guests hope for but rarely find in a 3BR home. The walk to the beach is truly just seconds, yet the property feels private, spacious, and designed for groups who want room to gather, cook, relax, and enjoy each other’s company. Very few homes this close to the water offer such a large fenced yard, a full outdoor entertaining setup, and multiple places to unwind in every season.

Our outdoor living space is a major highlight. Guests love the 7-person hot tub, the fire pit with the Breeo Outpost grill, the huge yard for games, the downstairs porch swings, and the outdoor heater that makes winter evenings incredibly comfortable. Even more unique is the three-station cooking setup: a full 36" Blackstone griddle, an ASF smoker/charcoal grill for slow cooks or Texas-style barbecue, and the Breeo Outpost for open-flame grilling directly over the fire pit. For families and group trips, this outdoor kitchen setup becomes the center of everyone’s stay.

Inside, the home feels bright, warm, and thoughtfully updated. The chef’s kitchen includes everything needed for large meals—high-quality cookware, bakeware, spices, oils, utensils, a large island, a full coffee bar, and modern appliances. We added smart home touches to make the stay easy: Starlink high-speed internet, multiple smart TVs, temperature control, and voice-enabled features through Google Home Hub. Families appreciate having a pack-n-play, high chair, games, full laundry room, covered parking, and simple ground-level beach access.

What makes Rayo De Sol truly unique is how effortlessly it brings people together. Whether it’s cooking breakfast on the Blackstone, sharing drinks around the fire pit, watching kids play in the big yard, or enjoying a quiet walk to the Gulf, this home creates moments that feel simple, warm, and memorable—exactly what a great beach retreat should deliver.
