About this house rental
Summary:
Can't beat the elevated island & water views from this stunning "Pelican's Pass" beach home! The 3 x screened porches AND a sun deck are perfect for enjoying the beautiful nearby beach, Bay & Gulf seascape-oh my!
The Space:
Outside you'll find charcoal BBQ grill, two relaxing hammocks (gotta love that sea breeze), nice-sized picnic table and outdoor cold & hot water overhead faucet for that quick sand & surf rinse off. Plus, it's just a short walk right to the long stretch of beach those who have visited Treasure Island before know and love.
Inside, you'll discover all kinds of island oasis charm from stunning fresh coastal decor and furnishings to towering ceilings and all the amenities you need to enjoy your escape! And...we haven't even touched on the sunrises and sunsets you'll never forget from the many windows and porches adorned with comfortable outdoor furnishings to relax and breathe in that fresh coastal air. Calgon take me away! You'll be sure to want to come back to Pelican's Pass again and again!

The Neighborhood:
TREASURE ISLAND:
The 979 Crew just loves this seaside and bayside community flanked by Galveston Island on one end and Surfside Beach on the other. On your drive, stop by the grocery store for your favorite grillables and beverages, make a pit stop at the bait shop to fill your bait bucket (great fishing in TI), and/or place a call to make arrangements to rent a golf cart - this is a very golf cart friendly spot. Enjoy the Gulfside's uncrowded pedestrian beach (no cars allowed for 300 yards but golf carts welcomed) where you can setup your group's camp for the day on the beach to build sandcastles, jump in the surf, find unique shells and sand dollars, boogie board, shore & surf fish and build an evening bonfire. Or if preferred, utilize the available launch for your boat or kayak or head to the fishing pier on the bayside. Some much to do so little time!
Getting Around:
SAN LUIS PASS:
San Luis Pass and Treasure Island have been known all over the United States for being a saltwater fishing hotspot and the most amazing sunrises & sunsets! It is 15 minutes from Surfside and across the bridge from Galveston's west end and only about 25-30 minutes to the heart of Galveston Island's activities. Most people come to the area to spend quality 'non-commercialized" time with family, extended family, and friends!

8.0 / 10.0ExcellentĀ·Aug 2025
Very good rental if youāre bringing pets and want something affordable in this neighborhood. Cleanliness was top notch. Some wear and tear but thatās expected near the beach! Our only downfall was the ramp, it was a little steep trying to get a baby carrier up and down. Overall I would recommend and stay again!
10.0 / 10.0OutstandingĀ·Jul 2025
We have stayed in this neighborhood for several years now this was our first time as a smaller group so we chose this smaller house and it did not disappoint. Very organized and stocked with all the essential items needed. Great location easy access to the beach, with amazing views from every deck.
10.0 / 10.0OutstandingĀ·Sep 2023
This is our 2nd time staying and we absolutely love it. We plan on returning again next summer. Our only complaint is that the new house next-door has so..many outdoor lighting that it totally ruined sitting on the screened in deck at night and watch the stars. Don't understand why they have too have that many porch lights on.
6.0 / 10.0AverageĀ·Jul 2024
The views from this house are amazing. The decks are nice with the screens since the mosquitos can be pesky. The house has everything you would need. However, on arrival the access code didnāt work (quite frustrating with the long travel). When we did enter the home is was very hot and the smell of mold hit us. The only part of the house that cooled off nicely was the upstairs (which was odd to us). The bed in the downstairs room broke on day 3, thankfully I brought a sheet for the pull out bed. The last night the breaker tripped in the downstairs bedroom, we are pretty sure there is a leak in the wall since we had water leaking on the stove top and the smell. The hosts were very responsive but it was a bit of an inconvenience to have to correspond with them so much during our vacation. The house was nice just needs some maintenance on some of the furnishings. If the downstairs area matched the upstairs it would have been perfect.
