Beachfront Home with Beautiful Views

Welcome to Surfside!

This beautiful beachfront home is nestled in cozy 'Sea Isle' which is approximately 25 minutes from Galveston. You will have easy access to the restaurants and attractions Galveston offers while enjoying a more private feel at the beach and incredible ocean views from the home.

The home is professionally managed and well-stocked so you can pack light, rest easy, and fully enjoy your vacation.

THE HOME
Appropriately named “Surfside” for its closeness to the water, this is the perfect setting for a great beach vacation. The charm of this oceanfront home begins with a unique and unforgettable exterior design. Inside, the main living area opens with high ceilings and a wall of windows providing natural light and breathtaking ocean views. An upper-level deck wraps around the beachside of the house for an outdoor vantage point with a 180-degree view of the beach and ocean.

From the backyard, take the private path through the dunes for a short walk to one of the best beaches that Galveston has to offer. Easily take breaks throughout the day to cool off at the house or enjoy a meal with your group. The open floor plan at the house allows you to take in the beautiful ocean views from the family room, dining, or kitchen and never feel secluded from the action.

BEDROOMS
The master bedroom is located on the main level and features a king bed, flat screen TV, dresser, and ample closet space. Bedroom 2 located upstairs features a queen bed. Bedroom 3, also upstairs, features one set of single size bunk beds and one twin size bed. Bathroom 1 on main level features a shower/tub combination. Bathroom 2 located upstairs features a walk-in shower.


DURING YOUR STAY
Upon your arrival, use the upper-level wrap-around deck on the beachside of the house to access the front door. The front door is equipped with a keyless entry system so you can simply type in your code to enter the home. This makes for a simple and convenient check-in process.

Grab some beach toys from the lower patio and take a short walk using the private path to the beach directly in front of the home. Hang out with your group on the beach building sandcastles, surfing on boogie boards, or just relax on the beach. Easily come back to the house throughout the day to grab a snack or rest. There is a private outdoor shower conveniently located on the lower patio to rinse off the beach before coming in. The lower patio also provides excellent shade during the hottest times of the day and features a charcoal grille for burgers or steaks. Outdoor seating is provided on both the upper deck and lower patio. This home makes for a quintessential beach house vacation!

BEACH ACCESSORIES STOCKED AT THE PROPERTY
The home is stocked with beach items to enhance your experience and reduce the number of items you need to purchase and pack for your trip. These items typically include boogie boards, sandcastle toys, beach umbrellas, etc. Due to the nature of beach items, we are unable to guarantee all items are available or in pristine condition. Although we restock these items on an ongoing basis, they are used by guests and do incur wear.

Need beach chairs, a beach canopy, or a golf cart during your stay? We have a local company that rents these items. They can deliver these items and pick them up at a reasonable rate. Their contact information is listed under 'Local Rentals' in the Local Guide section of our guest app which is made available upon booking your reservation.

STOCKED ITEMS
This home is well stocked starting with a kitchen that has just about everything you need to prepare and enjoy meals. Just bring your favorite ingredients! All beds are made prior to your arrival with clean sheets. Freshly laundered hand, bath, and beach towels are provided. You will also find the home is stocked with a starter kit including necessities such as coffee, paper towels, and toilet paper. These items are intended to make your initial arrival comfortable before having the chance to go shopping. You may need to purchase additional supplies depending on the length of your stay and the size of your group.

NEIGHBORHOOD AMENITIES
You will have access to the neighborhood fishing pier which is an excellent place for both fishing and crabbing. In addition, there is a community pool open 7 days a week in the summer between Memorial Day and Labor Day. You will need to purchase a pass from the HOA office which is open M - F from 9AM - 5PM and located next to the community pool. The pass typically costs $100 but may vary. Although we are unable to provide the phone number for the Sea Isle HOA office in this listing, their phone number and address are provided in our guest app.

CHECK-IN AND CHECK-OUT
Check-in time is 4PM on your arrival date. Please do not request an early check-in time as we are unable to provide early check-ins. If you arrive to the island before 4PM, please utilize our guest app to find one of the many restaurants or attractions Galveston has to offer. These can serve as an excellent meeting place for members in your group and a fun way to start your trip.

Check-out time is 11AM on your departure date. Please adhere to this departure time so that our staff has adequate time to prepare the home for the next guest. Late guest departure from the home may result in additional fees.

Nice space on the beach.
We have enjoyed 2 stays in this property and it is clean, comfortable and located on the beach which is important to us. It does seem that this property needs some updating and cosmetic work ( trim paint etc). Also, the drawer face of the silverware drawer in the kitchen came off when pulled and shows wear and tear. In addition, there are lots of ants and gnats. We purchased ant traps but they should have been in place. We also found the lockbox to be difficult.

Comfortable spot right on the beach.
Our family of four enjoyed our stay here. Lots of room for everyone to have their own quiet time as well as comfortable living room and dining space for hanging out together. The location cannot be beat— right on the beach with unobstructed views and plenty of sand. Equipped with everything you’d need to never leave/ plenty of beach toys and umbrellas, kitchen with all the cooking tools you’ll need, and a small grocery store less than a block away. Excellent communication from property management and easy check-in and simple check-out process. Will be back!

Perfect size home for our family of 6, plus a friend. Home had everything we could possibly need and then some. Can't beat the proximty to the beach, just right outside the back door, and felt like we had our own private peice of the beach. Views from all the windows and doors were beautiful day and night. We had a great stay!

Galveston west-end, very quiet
Booked a 10 day stay and found this property very nice. The view is excellent and as I say in the review title, we were out of the crowds that are typical in Galveston. Very relaxing. Be aware there is a pretty steep spiral stairway to access the upstairs bedrooms (the large master bedroom is downstairs) which could be a challenge for an older or limited mobility person. That aside the property is excellent.

We really enjoyed the house. It was very clean, well-stocked, and attractive. Our one big issue was the mosquitoes because they hung around us the moment we left the stairs, regardless of the weather, time of day, or bug spray. We learned to sprint through the backyard all the way to the edge of the water to avoid the little vampires. Other than that, the house was great! We spent several evenings sitting on the deck and enjoying the view of the gulf.

We had such a great stay! The house was very clean and cozy, and the location was ideal. It can be hard to find rentals for just a small group and this was perfect for the 5 of us. Everything was well-stocked and perfect for our visit. We hope to be back again soon!

There were 6 in our group all of which are retired. We had the best time and the house and accommodations were perfect for our group. We all laughed and said “what happens in Galveston stays in Galveston”. Our kids and grand kids wouldn’t believe what a great time we had. The house was right on the beach. The sunsets were spectacular. We would definitely this hime and the price was great!

Super Blue Moon Stay
We love this property! It was clean and had everything we needed. The views were amazing. The beach is closer than it looks in the pictures. I spent most of my 5 days on the porch enjoying the view, the surf, the sunrises and moonrises. The location is quiet, and the beach is a pedestrian beach, so there aren't many people around. In the mornings, there are some people walking their dogs, but most of the day, it feels like a private beach. I loved the outside shower and the swing on the lower level. There are plenty of chairs on the porch. Bring mosquito spray. The first two days, there weren't any mosquitos, but the rest of the time, they were bad. I appreciated the beach towels provided. They were extra-large and plush. During our stay from August 27 through September 1, we did not see or experience any tar on the beach. The air conditioner worked great! Our entire experience was wonderful! The house is clean, comfortable and cool!! We rented a golfcart from Rick's and they delivered it right away and picked it up on time. Be aware the beach is pedestrian and golf carts (or any motorized vehicle) is not allowed. There are 3 or 4 places to ride the cart right down to the water and in the neighborhood across the street, there is a marina, a pool, a store, and a restaurant. We would definitely stay here again.

We didnt want to leave!!
We spent 4 nights and were very sad to have to leave! We loved everything about this place. A couple things we loved: - Cleanliness - Everything you could need to be able to cook from home - Really appreciated the makeup remover wipes (because i forgot to pack mine). Also the makeup mirror in the bathroom! - A/C worked amazingly!! - Cant beat the location, being on the beach was our favorite part. The walk to the beach is a short one and we loved all the windows that let us see the beach from the inside. The uniquely shaped windows were really cool too. The "dome" shape of the house was so cute and added to the uniqueness of the property. It made it easy for us to distinguish which house was ours when arriving too. - Loved the swing at the bottom of the house, we spent a lot of time down there. - There is a decent sized yard with beautiful grass which our fur babies appreciated. - Love the secluded location of the house on the island too. It's very peaceful, beach was not crowded at all. There are plenty of local restaurants within 10 minutes to choose from too if you'd like to go out. - Highly recommend Rick's Beach Rentals, The Galvestonite Bistro and Seven Seas Grocery for any of your needs! Long story short, we already can't wait to come back!
