Beachfront Bliss: Steps to beach/Views, sleeps 14

It's all about the VIEW!!! This is the place to make lasting memories. Enjoy this oasis by the sea, only steps from the ocean with endless views. This amazing beach house is perfect for groups of 12-14 in Playa San Luis neighborhood.

Take in the sounds of the waves while enjoying a morning cup of coffee or a cold afternoon beverage in the new Adirondack seating area. Relax while walking on the beach, collecting sea shells, building sand castles, and making memories with family and friends. Wade fishing is another favorite for our guests. The ease of being only steps from the beach allows you to have all of the conveniences of being at home while being able to bring food and drinks to the beach with ease. After a day at the beach, there is an outdoor shower to rinse off which is a favorite for visitors.

This serene beachfront home is on a quiet cul de sac and is right next to the beach walkover. It is beautiful year round! The large spacious living area looks out to the beach from all angles and the large deck faces east for the sunrise. The new windows and doors accent the spectacular view. On the deck, we offer outdoor seating areas that include two picnic tables, and six Adirondack loungers. The indoor dining has seating for 8 with 3 bar stools nearby. The home is perfect for gathering family or friends. In the evening the children can retreat to the upstairs media room, while the adults may take in some cards, games, or TV in the main living space. We recently replaced all of the windows and French doors.

The recently renovated master suite has a large king-size bed with its own stairway and private deck! There is a guest bedroom (queen bed), up a separate stairwell. It has a private deck & bathroom. The bedrooms downstairs include: one with a queen size bed and deck access, and two pull-out cots, and the fourth bedroom has 3 sets of bunk beds that sleep 6. The bunk room does not have access to the deck for safety. It adjoins to the other downstairs bedroom with an updated bathroom. The downstairs has also been recently renovated with new floors and windows.

This is the perfect beach house to share with friends and family. The driveway can accommodate up to four vehicles. We look forward to having you as our guests.

Perfectly suited our needs. Plenty of room and we never felt like we were "tripping" over each other. The beach was my mom's favorite place to be. Our family had a nice, reflective time as we honored mom \granny\cousin and began a new chapter of our family without our matriarchic. We will be back,.

Perfect Weekend Getaway

Our family of 6 thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this beach house! In fact, it's our 2nd time renting it. The views are amazing, all the beds are super comfortable, the kitchen is well appointed and equipped, and the living room furniture is quite comfortable (not always the case with some rentals). I'd highly recommend this house and owner for your next family Galveston getaway!

Great house

We had a great stay at this house! It's a bit farther out than the main town but the house and set up is fantastic for a family get away. I feel the house is nicer than the pictures. The views and balconies are perfect. The host was also very responsive. We would book this again.

Best View EVER!!!

The beach was fantastic, the view was bar none. & the accommodations were spacious for six adults. It's not a brand new beach house but it is certainly very comfortable. There was a well stocked kitchen, & all was just simply superb! The lawn needed to be mowed to help with the horrible mosquito issue, but we felt all of this was due to recent Hurricane Beryl & the many rainy days that followed. You can't get to the beach any quicker than from Sand By Me. We enjoyed this beach stay above our many other yearly trips of 19 years of family vacations. If we could give you 10 stars we would! It was AWESOME!

Peaceful, Relaxing and Beautiful

My family and I rented Sand By Me July 2023. The house was beautiful, very spacious and very clean. All instructions were very easy to read and understand. The master bedroom looking over the water was my favorite part. Being able to sit up in bed and watch the sun rise and not even have to leave the the house. The Deck was also very much used and enjoyed. Since there are no stairs to get on the deck from ground level, I was able to let my 18 month daughter roam freely (for the most part) on the deck and watch her have the time of her life. This is a great home for you if you want a peaceful and relaxing vacation.

Beautiful views and beach access

We spent a long relaxing weekend here that we loved! Easy to book, very responsive owner. Views were amazing, location to walkway and beach awesome. Having a few beach toys was great! Loved being this far down in a section of beach where no cars are allowed on the beach. Note: there is no beach wagon or chairs, so bring your own. And upstairs Q bed/bathroom is lofted, so no door for that bedroom. Didn't bother us but may be an issue for others. We could prepare what we needed in the kitchen. AC worked well. Lots of fun memories!! Thank you for allowing us to stay!

We enjoyed our stay very much! The beach access was so great and easy with three small girls! Beach was not busy and everyone loves their time there. House was well equipped with essentials needed for cooking and it was nice to have a washer and dryer to use each day for our beach towels Would definitely stay at this location again and would recommend to friends and family.
