There is a nice deck on the canal to relax and have a drink before your meal. The seafood is delicious. We have made lots of memories on that deck.

Jose’s Cantina

Good Mexican and Seafood
They also have an upstairs bar with pool tables.

Jayla’s
1951 Hwy 87 Gilchrist TX 77617
The epitome of a classic “Dive Bar”. A good place to relax and it has an upstairs. If you are with a big group, not the best place to eat because they do not have the capacity for feeding large groups, but a good place to grab a cold one. Oh and it is super close by!

Nauti Beaver Hut
1709 TX-87, Crystal Beach, TX 77650
Has outdoor seating · Doesn't accept reservations · Has live music
Their facebook page is typically updated if you want to see specials, what band is playing, etc.

Breach of any of these house rules is a breach of the terms and conditions of occupancy, as per the rental agreement you have signed.

I want to give a HUGE THANK YOU to the owners!! This was the perfect place to hold our wedding. I truly appreciate the kindness and being so adaptable to us changing plans. My entire family was so happy with the place and made many comments about how beautiful it was.

Sweet Escape!

Beachfront Bliss lives up to its name and was a divine respite for our Thanksgiving holiday this year! We cannot say enough positive things about the location and accommodations. Clean, well-stocked, COMFORTABLE beds and linens... Our group was three generations: grandparents, parents and kids. There was plenty of room for everyone to have their own space - my parents loved having a primary suite on the main floor. Ample parking, minutes from "town", tons of shells and a can't-be-beat beachfront. We will definitely be back!

The most wonderful vacation retreat!

Absolutely fantastic beach house! Beautiful decor, fully equipped kitchen! Very comfortable beds, plush towels! Just a few steps down to the great beach and at times we just sat on the covered deck and listened to the waves. Restaurants within 10 minutes. Also great store to buy anything forgotten at home. My group will definitely be returning.

Great property!

We were the first to stay in this newly built home. The location was awesome! Everything in the home appeared to be brand new. The owners thought of everything when furnishing this house. There were lots of towels and blankets and anything you could possibly need in the kitchen. The house was very clean. The owner texted us before we arrived and said to text if we needed anything during our stay. We will definitely return to this house.

Host profile image
My wife and I have loved coming down here for many years.

Why they chose this property

Before Ike, my parents had a little place in Gilchrist. We would come here with our small children often. Now that they are grown, we reflect on those memories, and we hope we can be a part of creating great memories for you also.

What makes this property unique

It is one of the newest properties on the island, being that it was completed at the end of February of 2024.
