Nestled between the bay and the sugar sand beaches of the Gulf of Mexico, the golf cart-friendly community of Sea Isle boasts amazing community amenities such as its own private marina and fishing pier, a sparkling pool, a covered pavilion, tennis courts and a playground. There’s even a convenience store and bait shop! Savor a seafood dinner at the marina’s Palapa Restaurant. Weekends call for live music and tropical drinks at the Sandbar.

Gather together at the dining table for great conversation and laughter over a shared meal

Savor the salty air and coastal breeze from your seat on the wraparound porch. Or head down to the covered patio and dock where you’ll find a table and chairs for outdoor dining.

In the evening, toast to an amazing vacation while you watch the sunset light up the sky in vibrant colors.

The house was very clean and functional.

Wonderful time; only complaints are that the patio lights underneath did not work, and the front bathroom bathtub would not drain.

Oh where to begin.... love the location and loved the property. We had the best time for our first times in Gavelston. Even though non of the lights on the canal worked, we called with no answer, on our first day there the fridge went out, I call everyday being promised a fix and left with no fridge until the day before our last day the freezer went out. That is when I called and talked to the sweetest one, Abbey I believe. She had a fridge there in an hour why did the rest not succeed and we went 6 days with out a fridge. They did pay us a compensation of 550 but that was to include 280 for groceries that we lost. Love the house and the area. Communication on property management needs so help.
