About this property

Almost Beachfront- Beautiful Pirates Beach home- Sleeps 16- Steps to beach!

Almost Beachfront is exactly what it claims to be, a luxury beach house just steps from beautiful Galveston beach. Come relax and unwind at this family friendly home and enjoy some island sunrises. You can watch and hear the waves from any of the three decks and watch the sunrise from the comfort of your living room. This large home sleeps 16 and is kid/dog friendly. This four bedroom, three full bath beach home has one king bed, two queen beds, and 5 full beds, and two pull out couches (full) to chose from. We have updated the house this year with all new pillows and high count sheets to make your stay as comfortable and relaxing as possible. Stop adulting and enjoy some days on island time. There is a fabulous game room in the garage where you can enjoy foosball, ping pong or play air hockey with your family. There are assorted games and DVD's in the home so you will never have a dull moment. We have a high chair, pack and play and baby rocker should you have a little one. Enjoy making a puzzle together on the kitchen table or enjoy putt putt or a movie in town.

Pirates Beach is conveniently located near a wonderful Italian restaurant(Mario's), liquor store and fresh seafood store right across from the neighborhood entrance.

There is a gas grill, free wifi, Roku and TV/dvd player. We also have a high chair that straps on the dining room chair and lots of baby toys! There is plenty to do on the beach and around town to make this vacation as busy or as quiet as you like. We know you will love your stay in Almost Beachfront and we hope this will become a special place for your family as much as it is for ours. Enjoy your stay!
Property has front door stationary camera for security.

Annual Family vacation - always in Galvestion, always at Pirate's Beach! & always as close to the w

Was a wonderful week. We were able to get most of our family together. A couple of our families were at a home 3 doors away and there were 3 families at Almost Beach. Was close enough to the beach (one house) to be right where we wanted to be. Love the homeness of the community. This beach house checked all our boxes.

Perfect location to the Beach!

We had a great time here at the beach house! The house was in a PERFECT location to walk right to the beach. It was one house back from being front row. The house was probably one of the most stocked short term rentals we have ever stayed at to be honest. That was a nice touch. It was perfect for our multi family trip. The beds were cozy, it was clean and Jennifer was so nice and easy to work with. We would stay here again and recommend to anyone looking for a great stay near the beach.

Great house, perfect location

This house was perfect for our group. The number of beds/bedrooms and bathrooms made accommodating couples and kids easy. The kitchen is good sized and super-well-stocked. The variety of decks and seating areas allowed for everyone to get together and for me to find some quiet space. Outdoor shower is great. The beach is maybe 50 feet away. It's clean and not crowded at all. Highly, highly recommended! We will be back.

Awesome for families and extended family!

This place was amazing. Exceeded our expectations. We stayed here with our family and had extended family come in from the Houstan area and stay with us. The most we had at one time was 8 but there was plenty of room for several more. The views from the multiple decks were breathtaking. We had our coffee out there every morning and watched the sun come up. The game room in the garage was awesome for the evening entertainment. It was also nice to have the washer and dryer and not have to bring hone a mountain of dirty laundry!.

Taking the team to the beach

Me and a couple other parents took our high school cross country team here for the weekend. Unfortunately it rained most of the weekend. But they had a great time anyway. The location is perfect and the house was great. There was plenty of room for everyone. We had 11 teens and two adults. The game room in the garage was nice to have but the kids didn’t use much at all because it was just too hot in there and house rules were you can’t open the big garage doors. So maybe bring a fan or something you can use to try to cool it down. We were here in the spring. I can’t imagine how hot it would get in the summer. Maybe we missed somethjng that could cool it down I’m not sure. The owner was great. Always answered any questions right away and was very nice and easy to deal with. It was very clean inside. I would definitely recommend the house.

Beach house review

The property is nice; however, it appears to have some maintenance work that needs to be completed. Some of the siding is falling off, the lower level lights outside were not working, and some of the siding on the 3rd floor appears to have fallen off as well. With a little TLC, I'm sure it can compete and even surpass the other beach houses that I've stayed at over the last ten years.

We had a wonderful time in Galveston over the 4th of July. The property was large enough for everyone to have their own space and yet enjoy each other's company. The mornings having coffee on the porch and listening to the ocean was wonderful.

Best Location in Galveston!!!

The house isn’t technically on the beach, but it might as well be since it’s a few feet to walk. Jennifer was very easy to work with. Everyone had a blast and the kids loved the upstairs and the games in the garage. The house is stocked with pots, pans, dishes, pretty much everything. The beach is private so it was very easy to socially distance from others. We would love to return.

About the host

Host profile image
We are so happy to share our beach house getaway with you. We purchased this house to allow our family to get away from the city and spend more time together. We have tried to outfit the house with all of the amenities to make this a great place for a family to vacation together. Please enjoy the house and be our guest. It is special to our family and we hope it earns a special place in your heart also.

Why they chose this property

This beach house is more of a home and we want you to feel like our guests. Watch the sunrise from the deck or watch the kids playing down at the beach from the front deck, this is part of the convenience of this home. It is almost beach front and offers everything you want in a beach house. The sound of the waves surround you and the salty breeze is ever present. This home invites you to relax and take it easy. Enjoy the kid friendly game room and all the games and toys available at the house. It is our sanctuary from the pace of city life and we hope you feel that way too.

What makes this property unique

The game room will offer a respite from the sun during the hot hours of the day and the kids can play football, ping pong or air hockey while getting out of the main house for a break.
