Perfect Stay!

This beach house is a stunning, well appointed, extremely comfortable Galveston retreat. The kitchen was stocked with all the items you need for big dinners, the beds were cozy, and there were numerous balconies with comfortable furniture to relax on. The views are amazing and the quick walk to the pool and/or beach made it the perfect location. We found so many shells on the beach, too! The property manager was easy to communicate with and responded quickly to messages were sent. We will definitely rent this house again!!

Amazing vacation

We had the best stay at Pointe West. The house was even more beautiful in person. You had a good view of the ocean. They had great amenities, plenty of towels, a nice grill, the kitchen was excellently stocked and the outdoor patio furniture was very nice. The house was very family friendly for young children. They had baby gates, bumper, rails, a pack n plays and a bouncer. We easily slept our three families. We would definitely stay at this house again. It was an easy a 5 minute walk to the beach which was never crowded.

Love this place!

We are a very picky group and we loved everything about this house. It was beautiful, comfortable and clean inside and out. Indoors, the family areas provided plenty of comfy seating and on the front and back decks on all levels there was an abundance of outdoor seating and dining for sunrises, sunsets, naps, and coffee time. The bedrooms & baths were beautiful and comfortable. A big bonus was finding plenty of spices, oils, and cooking extras provided for in the kitchen. Downstairs we cooked on the grill and enjoyed the swings. There are tons of beach toys, a wagon and chairs. Golf cart rental recommendation was spot on and easy. These proud owners provided all the extras to make this stay so nice - throws, games, books, extra linens, extra pillows, well stocked kitchen and baths. We will be returning!

Pointe West Home Review

We had a wonderful time staying in Pointe West! John and Valerie shared their beautiful beach house with us and made sure we were comfortable during our stay. The home was immaculate. Very clean and cozy. With 13 adults & children, this home had plenty of space for all to have their own bed. Close access to the private beach without car traffic was a huge bonus! We highly recommend this home for others and look forward to returning again ourselves!

Amazing House

The perfect house for a number of families to vacation at. Lots of room to spread out inside and out. Very clean, great decor, and had everything we needed. Lots of resort amenities to keep the kids and adults entertained. The only thing of note is that the on-site restaurants by the main pool are not open right now but there is a food truck there, at least at lunch time. No alcohol service at the pool right now either. Call the resort before you go to find out when the restaurants will re-open if you are relying on them for some of your meals.

Such an Amazing Place!!!

This house was absolutely beautiful. By far the best VRBO rental we’ve ever had. We had 3 families stay and it was roomy enough for all. Another friend of ours stayed in another house in the same area and was amazed at how nice our house was compared to theirs’. John and Valerie were very attentive and responded right away whenever we had questions preparing for our stay. The house had everything we needed and was really close to the beach. I would recommend renting a golf cart if you have young children. It was really helpful to get to the pools and to lug all of our stuff. We will definitely be going back and will stay in this house!

Birthday weekend

It was an awesome property! Plenty of room for everyone. Only complaint I have was out of the owners control but the elevator went out of service the second day. One of my guest had a disability and wasn’t able to stay due to the amount of stairs to climb. No discount was offered after owners found out about the houseguest not being able to stay due to the elevator malfunction. Everything else was perfect and I’m sure the elevator will be fixed.

August 2024 Family Beach Trip

Our stay at John and Valerie's beach house was wonderful! We had 11 adults and one 3 year old, and we stayed for 3 nights, as a family get away. Most of our group was from the Houston area, but we had some fly in from Colorado, Maryland, and Arizona. The house looks even better in person than in the pictures. Everything was exactly as described, and the house was very well stocked with everything we needed (shampoo, conditioner, body wash, paper towels, dishwasher pods, kitchen ware, pantry items, etc). We used the beach chairs and wagons, the grill, the patios, and cooked about 7 meals in the very nice kitchen! The AC worked very well. And our 3 year old was enamored by the toy box full of beach toys. All of the rooms were very spacious and comfortable. Unfortunately, because we only had one child in our group, adults had to sleep in the bunk room, and we ended up purchasing a plug in rotating floor fan to give the bunk room more airflow with the door closed. But it would be a perfect room for 2, or 3, or 4 kids to share. The bathrooms were all very nice, and we loved the walk in showers. We didn't use the baby items, but there was a high chair, baby bath tub, bibs, baby bowls/utensils, bouncer, toys, etc. The walk from the house to the beach was less than 10 minutes and was really not bad, except for the mosquitos at dawn/dusk. But that's the norm in Galveston, just bring bug spray and apply it on the driveway before walking to the beach. We hope to stay here again soon!!

Thanksgiving memories

Our family of 13 from ages 4 - 73 stayed here for three nights to celebrate Thanksgiving. We always host at our home, but we recently sold it and are building a new home. We are currently living in an apartment and didn’t have room for everyone so we wanted to find a place to be together and make memories. This was a jewel of a place. It was so well stocked including double ovens in the kitchen! It was very clean and beautifully decorated. There is so much functional space and plenty of room outside and in for gathering, games, conversations, and eating. We all loved the beds and found them very comfortable. The beach is very close by and water from there or the bay is viewed from all of the patios. It stormed while we were there and we had to get in touch with the owners about a few things. They were extremely prompt to respond and helpful. My mother is quite picky and she called this place and this stay “absolutely perfect!” It’s a winner for sure. I’m thankful to the owners for sharing such a great place.

Perfect Weekend Getaway

This beautiful home has spacious decks with plenty of comfortable furniture on the decks for playing cards, enjoying morning coffee, and just relaxing and enjoying views of the gulf and the bay. We cooked both nights of our stay and found everything we needed in the well-appointed kitchen. The beds were very comfortable. My college-age daughter said she had the best night's sleep ever (and is now trying to talk us into buying her a new bed and new pillows), and my brother-in-law, who is looking for a new mattress, took note of the brands of the beds to purchase for himself! The location is great for fishing in the bay or the gulf as well as the dune lakes close to the house. This is a great home for large family gatherings.
