About this property

Sandpiper Treasure | Beach House, Gulf Views!

This home has been kept in pristine condition and only recently joined Ryson’s vacation rental portfolio in 2021. Guests will enjoy the open spaces, the view of The Gulf of Mexico, a large corner lot, and only steps to the beach! The home is located on a corner lot in Pirates’ Beach and is less than a 5-minute walk to the edge of the water.

Guests will enjoy the open living/dining/kitchen concept. The living area features two large sofas as well as additional seating around the large flat-screen television which sits over an electric fireplace (operated by remote control) for setting the mood!

The dining area features a table with 8 chairs and the island will seat 4 very comfortably. The updated kitchen comes equipped with granite countertops, a large pantry, stainless steel appliances, a double built-in wall oven, and a Brisa Vented hood above a 5-burner electric cooktop. The kitchen is outfitted with everything a guest could want from small snack preparation to full holiday meals.

This home also has a screened porch with teak tables and chairs, absolutely perfect for a summer’s day or evening to relax and enjoy a cool beverage on a screened-in porch. Under the home is a large shady area where guests may enjoy barbecues, a large outdoor shower for use when returning from the beach. Guests may also enjoy the remaining portions of the deck which have a view to the beach and Adirondack-style chairs for a chance to sit back and relax and hear the sounds of the water, waves, and pelicans as they fly overhead.

Sleeping accommodations are as follows:

Primary bedroom: 1 King (sleeps 2), Main Level
Second bedroom: 1 King (sleeps2), Main Level
Third bedroom: 1 King (sleeps 2), Main Level
Bunk bedroom: 1 Single/Full (sleeps 3) + 1 Queen/Queen (sleeps 4) Main Level


PIRATES' BEACH

Pirates' Beach, located on the beachside of the island, East of Jamaica Beach and Galveston Island State Park, is one of the island's most popular neighborhoods, as families have been vacationing in Pirates Beach for generations! Pirates' beaches are some of the best kept on the island, and many guests appreciate that vehicles are not able to drive on the beaches here (guests are able to park at one of the many neighborhood cul-de-sacs to easily carry beach gear to the beach). Pirates’ Beach has its own small grocery mart, liquor store, and even fresh seafood markets and bait shops. If you want to stock up on some essentials, Hummel’s General store is a one-stop shop for groceries, ice, fresh deli sandwiches, and pizza, pretty much all the goodies you may need for a vacation weekend.


GULF COAST CONCIERGE

Ryson partners exclusively with Gulf Coast Concierge to make your time on the island unforgettable! Gulf Coast Concierge understands it's the little things that count. Create your own adventures with beach gear and golf cart rentals, a sunset cruise, or a bonfire and smores on the beach. Gulf Coast Concierge also offers fishing charters, photo sessions, and a variety of in-home services. If you can dream it, we will do our best to make it happen!

Nice, but could be better
The home was very nice and the location is great. We have stayed in this area before. The communication from the host/manager was hit or miss from the time we booked until we left. Upon arrival the home was unlocked. We had difficulty get the lockbox open and did not get a response to our request for assistance. The first bedroom wreaked heavily of perfume and smoke. The other rooms did not. We left the door open thinking it would air out, but it did not. When we went to get in the bed the sheets and the pillow on one side smelled strongly of the perfume and smoke. The toilet in that room was also unflushed. We had to strip the bed, go buy laundry soap, and wash the sheets before we could use that room. Management offered to send housekeeping (the only time they replied) but at that point we had already handled it. We did find trash on the floor in one of the bathrooms, and clothing left behind in one of the room dressers, but everything else was clean. The home is very nice, very spacious. It was a great space for all of family to meet and go to the beach. It is in walking distance to the beach and the area was clean. Nice area overall.

Total lack of communication by Ryson property rentals. They never responded to messages I sent.
The beach house was excellent. Ryson property rentals was horrible. No communication. The host never responded to my messages. I will never again stay in a property managed by them.

Great house/location in Pirates Beach
We had a great time staying here. It is a well equipped/decorated home that is a short walk down to the beach. There are some minor inaccuracies in the listing (type of coffee maker) and a lack of towels (which other reviews have noted) but otherwise we had a fantastic stay and would rent here again.

Perfect Location
The property exceeded all expectations. It was wonderful to have all of use on one level. The kitchen is big enough to host Thanksgiving dinner with seating to match. From the balcony you can see the waves. We had eight adults and two children with enough room for a few more. Perfectly located a few minute stroll to the sand in the best part of Pirates Beach.

Beach House
The house was pretty but not very clean, ac in the bedrooms did not work at all. We called everyday of our stay and I was told that the ac would be fixed and that they were sending someone and that never happened. We ended up sleeping on the floor in the living area where it was cooler and on the screened in porch.The dish to cook on we’re super old and scraped up. The refrigerator never did cool either. They left 6 towels for the entire stay. I was never contacted back for the ac still. We have stayed at many beach houses in Galveston and never has this issue. For what we paid the customer service should have been better.

Fantastic!
Pirates Beach never disappoints and neither did this property. Everything was as described and being just a hop and a skip from the beach front was a great feature. We enjoyed our time here and stayed comfortable the entirety of the trip. Kids loved the bunk room! Would highly recommend.
