Admire jaw-dropping Gulf views at this amazing beachfront home, watch sunrises over the pond to the east, and sunsets over your neighbors to the west. You’ll love the large balcony off the Great Room, perfect for entertaining or simply dining alfresco while enjoying fresh breezes.

Inside, you’ll find an open floor plan with Gulf views throughout. Warm wood floors and sparkling granite counters create an upscale setting for family and friends. Vaulted ceilings soar in the Gulf-view Great Room, with large picture windows for lovely natural light. Whip up delicious dishes in the sparkling full kitchen, configured with stainless steel appliances and lots of handy extras. Five plush bedrooms plus a roomy loft provide ample space to relax and restore. One of the bedrooms boasts an en suite bath and shares a second beachfront balcony with another bedroom.

Head down below to host an afternoon cookout, with a gas grill and picnic space beneath the home. An outdoor shower is perfect for rinsing off after mornings on the sand! As an additional perk, enjoy the fastest internet speed with 1000M+ bps, excellent for remote work from the beach.

Nearby, your beachfront location is worlds away from your day-to-day, while still being within walking distance of local eateries. Make the five-minute drive into town for even more options. This ideal spot is also perfect for everything from beach parties to fishing, or even kayaking or catching crabs on the pond!

Great house, excellent communication. Easy access to Downtown Galveston.
8 / 10Excellent·Jan 2026
Location and ocean view is FANTASTIC, kitchen is well-stocked, home is clean and there’s plenty of room for everyone. But the description of the layout - despite my efforts to further clarify with Vacasa (also confusing because I expected VRBO but Vacasa wanted me to install and use their app for communication) - was not clear on VRBO. Of course it’s Galveston so we expected to climb some stairs, but my family was vacationing with my two 85-year-old parents (both of whom have mobility issues) so I wanted the “main living space” - including kitchen and family seating - on the lowest level. It turned out only the bedrooms were on that lower level. My poor parents were so exhausted after the long process of getting them all the way up the staircases to the top level that they never came down until we left! Don’t get me wrong, the view from the top level is amazing - and they thoroughly enjoyed it - but we wanted to get them out on the beach and go out and eat seafood and such (not an option with all the stairs). I asked Vacasa to please have VRBO update the listing, because I would have also been concerned about all the extra stairs back when my kids were little. Otherwise it was a FANTASTIC STAY!

Great location and views. Wish the elevator worked for our stay. Everything else was great!
6 / 10Average·Jun 2025
Had to call for check in because the code wasn’t working. The living room TV and 2 of the bedroom TVs didn’t work. No vacuum cleaner available which is needed at a beach house with all the sand! A/C downstairs on first floor with most of the bedrooms not working properly. Elevator alarm went off at 745 am waking up all the children. Wasn’t a horrible stay, but would not book again!
