About this property

Bayfront Getaway w/ Boat Slip & Amazing Views

Sitting elegantly on the edge of the sparkling bay, this sprawling vacation home in Terramar Beach has four levels and space for up to 20 of your friends and family. Park your boat at the private covered dock and bring your fishing gear— this is one of the best fishing spots on the coast! There’s also a barbeque area, screened-in patio, and multiple outdoor spaces for relaxing in the fresh bay breezes. Rent it and relax— you’ve found your home-away-from-home on the Texas Gulf Coast.

Location: Terramar Beach community of Galveston, Texas

Beach access: Terramar beach access point is a 30 second car ride or a 3-4 minute walk away

Private pool: We have a Cowboy soaking pool on the ground level that can comfortably fit up to 8 people when it's time to relax and cool off.

Community Amenities: Guests have access to the Terramar beach community pool— open Memorial Day thru Labor Day— and the boat launch and marina with the provided keys.

Rent BeachBox: Looking for beach gear for your Galveston getaway? We have you covered! Beach chairs and tents can be ready at the house upon your arrival. Message us for details and rates.

WIFI: Free high-speed WIFI is available throughout the home.

Cable: We provide Roku with access to Sling TV for live television channels. Guests are welcome to log into their own Amazon Prime, Netflix, or other streaming service apps as well.

Pet policy: Up to 3 pets are welcome in our home with a $25 fee per pet. We ask that pets stay off all furniture, are cleaned up after in the yard, and aren't left alone inside the home unless in a crate or kennel. Please message us if you’re planning on bringing your furry friend!

Large Groups: We love hosting church groups and large family gatherings, however groups over the size of 16 guests must be approved prior to booking.

Parking: 2 cars can fit in the garage and 2-4 cars can fit in the driveway. No street parking allowed.

Party Policy: No parties are allowed at our home. Please look elsewhere if that is the intent of your trip.

Age Requirement: Guests must be 24+ to book.

The open living spaces are downright dreamy with beautiful, unobstructed bay views from all levels on the home. The kitchen opens up to the dining area and living space, with plenty of countertop space for food prep and serving.

The first bedroom is down the hallway and is a secondary master suite— complete with a king-size bed and a private, ensuite bathroom. Two more bedrooms are on the main level, one bunk room that is always a big hit with the kids, and another room with a queen bed and full over full bunk bed. A full bathroom with a tub/shower combo can be accessed from the hallway.

The main master suite occupies the entire third level and is ultra-private. Painted a soothing sea blue with white trim, the master suite has a sumptuous king-size bed and french doors that open wide to sweeping views of the bay from your private balcony. The giant master bathroom has two walk-in closets, a double vanity, a separate tub, and a step-in shower. Climb up the stairs to the fourth-floor lookout for a birds-eye view of the coast.

The extraordinary outdoor spaces are sure to be a hit with everyone in your group. You can choose to relax in the screened-in patio on the main level with a glass of wine and a great book. Or, head out into the open air and work on your tan. Host a family dinner outside at twilight while a pink and purple sunset lights up the skies above you. Make your way down to the ground level and enjoy the Cowboy soaking pool, or head to the boat dock to do some fishing.

When your crew wants to spend a day at the beach, the access point for Terramar beach is about a 2-minute drive away. The mouthwatering restaurants of the West End Marina are also just a short hop from your front door. And the hustle-bustle of the Galveston Strand and the thrilling Pleasure Pier are a short drive away. This bayside home is the epitome of a Texas Gulf Coast paradise.

We are unable to price match any rates found on other booking platforms.

Great location for fishing & sunsets

For starters My husband was catching fish after fish when sun went down and they were nice size with some being very big. Location was beautiful with sunrises and sunsets . The house looked just like pics but u can tell the pics were when it was newer cus now it definitely looks worn but cabinets in kitchen could use a little love and attention as well as a few other things but that didn’t bother us to much cus they definitely provided all kitchen ware and cooking pans and paper towels and toilet paper needed for our stay . Toilets were very clean and beds were very clean … I loved the cowboy pool looking onto the bay it was well maintained… the only thing that bothered me was I like a floor being so clean I can walk barefoot on it especially if it was cleaned between people but I had to leave shoes on cus I was stepping on dirt or whatever right when I walked in door and we killed about 5 big cockroaches but I know those can just come in cus weather and going in and out with family … but I give my stay there and location a 9 otherwise and the host was soo kind and sweet and responded when I asked anything and even checked to make sure all was well the next day and i appreciated that :) we definitely would go back to catch more fish and enjoy that view and pool ;)

Just what we needed

My family and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the property. We were able to unwind and relax the entire weekend without any stress or worries. The house was incredibly spacious and accommodating for 20 people! The view was breathtaking, and we were delighted to wake up to the gulf on every level of the home. We can’t wait to book another stay!

Has potential, but is priced too high for the condition

I booked this place for our parents' 50th Wedding Anniversary trip. We had 6 adults and 6 children. Pros: The kids loved the bunkbed room, there was plenty of space for us to gather to talk and eat, the views of the sunsets were incredible, and the kids enjoyed fishing off the back deck. Cons: The house decor is beautiful, but there were several cleaning/ maintenance issues we brought to the management company's attention through messages and we never recieved a response. Not a single message was returned after we checked in or during our stay.Upon arrival, the garage and washing machine were both unusable. The left garage door was off its tracks and wouldn't close at all. The washing machine had standing water left in it and mildew.*some celining fans did not work around the house*several light fixtures had bulbs burned out*the screened in porch had a hole in the screen and the door wouldn't close,which meant it was no longer screened in*the coffee pot still had dirty/moldy water in it*there was a hole punched in the wall on the 3rd story stairway*the boat decks railing up top was very loose and wobbly, so we didn't feel safe sending our kids up there.I really see the house's potential with proper upkeep and cleaning. Because of the price point per night of this house, we expected it to be better maintained.

Great location. Loved the bay. The house needs refreshed with paint and deep cleaning such as light fixtures.Outer dock second level very unstable.Third floor deck not safe, rooting woodBathtub master not working jets.Cowboy tub not hot. Deck outside living room dirt with loose screening hangingThought we could walk to the beach but too far to walk because we could not carry our things that far.

Mardi Gras 2025

This property needs some maintenance and general repairs. The house was not cleaned. I expected more of a listing with this pricetag as far as housekeeping. The dishes were returned to the cabinet dirty. There was a pot with molded food in the bottom. The cabinets were food splattered inside and out. Floors were sandy, i doubted the sanitizing of the beds. Overall a good stay however we had to clean to be comfortable.

Disappointed

This property is not maintained, lots of damage. It was also not clean. Dirt in every corner and on all shelving. This house needs a deep cleaning from top to bottom, there was actually poop on the carpet. It seems the owner doesn't care about the property ant the cleaners do as little as possible.It does not include all of the amenities; the listing states that it has a firepit but did not. When I asked about it, I was told they would send one over, they never did. That would have been nice on the cool evenings.The location is good, and the view is great. The house has all the appliances, dishes, etc. that we needed.

BEWARE……AWEFUL

The over all location is exactly what we expected. However, the home is in desperate need of maintenance inside and outside. The kitchen sink has a continuous leak. There are holes in various walls in different rooms i.e. the bathroom and kitchen. The shower rod and curtain was laying in the floor in the second on suite bedroom. There is black mold in several places throughout the home. There are lots of dead bugs and trash in many of the light fixtures, corners of the ceilings and floors as well as live bugs in the kitchen area (roaches) and spiders everywhere. Cabinetry throughout the home are either broken, don’t close properly or simply missing. There is cracked tile in the kitchen, bathrooms and entryways. A water leak inside the screened porch ceiling and a large patched up leak in the kitchen/living area. One screen is also torn on that porch The microwave is unusually loud when in use The stove’s firewall protector should probably be replaced. The floors have an oily substance on them making them easy to slip. Lastly the over all cleanliness was a huge disappointment. I do understand this is a source of income for the owner. However, I don’t want any other families to be deceived by the beautiful photos advertised for this property. I did reach out to the owner with these exact concerns and provided video and picture evidence. But received a sorry for the inconvenience reply and total disregard for the deplorable condition of the property. I had to file a complaint.

Horrible Experience

House was not clean upon arrival. Had to sweep the house, clean master bathroom, excessive mold in the shower and mold in the washer. Holes in the walls in the house. Kitchen/dining room area ceiling caving in due to water damage. Could not park in garage (listed as being able to use) Garage doors broken and falling off the tracks. Cowboy pool was filthy and not usable until the 5th day of our 6 day stay. Pool pump wasn't even connected, it was in the garage. Boat dock & lift were not usable and lift did not work. (Confirmed ahead of time that this available and working as we brought a boat 800 miles. No boat ramp access key was left which is also listed as available. We were told to drive somewhere else to a public boat ramp. Very inconvenient as it is miles away. Communication from Host/BeachBox was non existent. They flat out did not care! We chose this house for use of the double garage, pool, boat dock/lift and use of boat ramp. None of these were available. There were over 15 phone calls made and messages to host to get these things corrected with no concern on their part. Overall the house is beautiful but in dire need of maintenance and cleaning. Think twice before renting this house. You do NOT get what is advertised!
