About this property

Best porch in the neighborhood!

This perfect little beach getaway will take the stress out of your day and have you heading home relaxed! The home was rebuilt from the studs and has everything need; comfortable furnishings, large covered porch, open kitchen and cool breezes.

I have four children and when I am at the beach I want our stay to be as low maintenance and stress-free as possible. This house has everything you need: laminate floors, well-equipped kitchen, washer/dryer, dishwasher, outdoor shower (with hot water) and wi-fi! Bring your bathing suits and sunscreen!

The location is ideal! The house is on the third row, so it is a short stroll to the water. Bermuda Beach is only 10 miles from the Strand, so shopping and restaurants are close by!

Perfect spot close to the beach

This was the perfect place for our little family. All the amenities and quick little walk to the beach. Quick drive to everything we wanted to do. Super helpful check in communication. No problems whatsoever.

Great Stay

My family of 5 really enjoyed our stay. We have a 6, 4 & 3 yo and the house was perfect for us. Location really is so close to the beach— very easy walk (and no long walk over sand dunes like many other areas), & also a short drive to the seawall to venture out for activities and dinner. Would definitely stay here again

Beach Getaway

This house was perfect for our little family. We watched the most beautiful sunrise from the front porch, walked right down it the semi-private beach multiple times, and even had an ice cream truck roll through. The location is phenomenal. The house is equipped with everything you might need and was perfectly clean when we got there. We would definitely stay here again!

Great spot moments from the gulf

This was a great location and good deal for a family weekend getaway! We like staying more to the west to avoid the "busy" side of Galveston and this did it! Beaches were easily accessible and the house was great for our needs!

Nice Stay

A needed get-a-way in the perfect spot. The only drawback was the threat of Alberto made me nervous and left 4 hours early which I regretted because nothing happened until a couple days later. Otherwise the place was a good find at the last minute. Much needed retreat and definitely recommend as long as the property continues to be maintained. Great location. Clean and modern. Quiet. Easy to book.

Great Family Getaway!

This was such a sweet place that met all of our family’s needs. Not only was the house fully equipped and comfortable, the beach was a tiny walk away! It was a quiet, calm beach that most days we had all to ourselves. The kids are already asking when we can come back again.

Nice getaway close to Houston and local attractions

Nice place to stay, a block from beach. If you like to walk or run, good to go either way on beach. Would recommend getting a cheap cooler for hanging out on the beach.

Perfect House and Perfect Location!

Absolutely perfect for our family of 4! The location is a quick 2-minute walk from the beach and is a short drive to all of the Galveston attractions. The house has a great porch with ocean views and the outdoor shower is perfect for washing off after the beach. Note: there is no gate on the exterior stairs so if you have little ones like us, you may need be extra cautious on the deck.

We had an amazing trip to Galveston. House is just as described and soooo close to the beach! I will say that I am glad we had our own chairs because the ones there are old and rusted. All in all we had an amazing time!

Grandkids first beach trip

We loved this house and will definitely stay here again. It is a very short walk to the beach (maybe half a block). It was clean. The beds were comfortable. The A/C will freeze you out, which is great after a day at the beach. Perfect size for the four of us. I highly recommend this property.

Final Summer Vacation

One final weekend family trip of the summer. The host (Lindsay) was easy to work with and very responsive. The beach cottage was cozy, clean and just right for out getaway. The beach was visible from the porch and was a short walk away (~2 minutes). We appreciated the chairs and toys/games that were also available.
