About this house rental
Shore to Please is a charming family-friendly home by the sea that can accommodate up to 7 guests. This fun year-round retreat guarantees a relaxing escape from the hustle and bustle of the touristy east end of the island. With beach access just one minute away, you can hop on the available golf cart rental ($50 per stay) for a quick and easy ride to the sand and surf. Experience this beautifully landscaped, 100% fully furnished rental, with each room thoughtfully themed for your island oasis getaway.
This vacation home includes dishes, utensils, glassware, two grills, two refrigerators, Keurig coffee maker, bottled water and plenty of outdoor seating for everyone. The elevator is especially helpful for luggage, coolers, or groceries. Plus, an outdoor shower makes it easy to rinse off after a fun-filled beach day. A beach house isn’t complete without a full-sized washer and dryer, and this one also features a garage to store motorcycles or family bicycles during your stay.
Envision yourself in a rocking chair or porch swing overlooking the balcony enjoying an ice cold beverage and year-round sea breeze after a day of fishing. Did we mention the private boat ramp and fishing pier? FYI, some of the best fishing on the Island is found on the west side! The included empty lots on either side of the property maximize privacy and space for family activities and yard games that are sure to be a good time. The home also backs up to a peaceful nature preserve.
Feeling like a local? The subdivision also boasts a nearby restaurant and bar serving up fresh island fare and cold drinks that’s just minutes away. You won’t want to leave. Book your vacation by the sea today!
Access tip: On the way to Galveston Island, traffic can back up dramatically on 45 South during peak times; however our property is ideally located approximately the same travel time on 288 South as it is from 45 South if you are travelling from Downtown Houston.

The weather was perfect, so being able to sit outside on the deck was fabulous. I had one guest that had some mobility issues, so the elevator in the back was a great addition. The host was responsive to all of our messaging in a reasonable time.

Fenced back yard was great. Golf kart giving easy and quick trips to the beach was perfect! Loved the house. It was everything it claimed and then some.

Clean beautiful cottage. Elevator was a wonderful addition. Great location to zip anywhere on the island. I would recommend.
6 / 10Average·Nov 2024
There is much to like. It’s close to the beach, nestled in a bustling community, with very popular restaurant and bar a four-minute drive away.
The beach is across a busy highway. House is not on beachside.
Seawall and town is 17 miles away. Plan accordingly.
The living space is small - apartment-sized. Two bedrooms, with a tiny connecting room to the master. No tv in any room except the living room, if that matters to you. Wouldn’t recommend more than 4 adults max. 3 was tight. No bottled water, as listing said. Water Dispenser in fridge almost empty.
The tiny, connecting room, as others said, does not have a door, but bed is discreetly behind a wall. The twin-sized day bed in it is appropriate for a child, not an adult.
The golf cart is a nice perk, but not strictly necessary, since there is a small parking lot at beach access with plenty of room to park a car. But fun!
We stayed only one night, and it was perfectly fine for such a short stay. Overall, enjoyed it.
However.. the house had a strong, musty/moldy odor when we l entered and didn’t go away. But it was clean.
There was no hot water, to speak of. It was lukewarm at best and didn’t last. Didn’t contact the host about it, since we stayed such a short time.
I could not get shower attachment in tub/bath combo to work.
The smoke alarm in the master bedroom was dismantled, left on top of the dresser, with wires dangling from the ceiling.
With more care for these details, I’d give it a higher score.
