Amazingly beautiful. Clean and close to the beach. Almost perfect - would have been a perfect 10 except there was no dishwasher detergent and not enough toilet paper.

The location of the house is perfect and literally steps away from the beach. We loved the neighborhood and felt like there was a general welcoming, calm vibe. All the windows and the site plan of the house is lovely and even with the weekend being rainy off and on we liked having the view and balconies. I would definitely consider staying here again.

GREAT beach house

We have stayed at this house in the past and really enjoy the home and its location. Perfect spot to relax on the deck and enjoy the sun and surf. This house feels more like a home and NOT a rental. We love it there and will be back again.

Great getaway

MerSea was the perfect choice for my family of 8. Great floor plan, beautifully decorated, very well maintained and very close to the beach. The owners are wonderful to work with, responsive, considerate, and organized. We hope to stay at the MerSea again in the future.

Great access to a quiet section of Pirate's Beach

We enjoyed the view from our balcony and the easy access to the beach from this home. It felt quiet & kid friendly most of the week, things picked up a bit on the 4th of July, but that was fun too. We loved being closer to the seawall and the Strand too. We have done annual trips to Galveston for the past six years at various parts of the island, and we would book this property again for sure. Icemaker was the BOMB!

Great views, comfortable home

We have had our eye on MerSea for several years and finally made the two week reservation. The home is fully equipped, extremely comfortable with fantastic views from the wrap around deck and from all the rooms. We actually made thanksgiving dinner for our family in August with peach cobbler for dessert. Loved the house, loved the location.

Five star all the way!

We could not be happier with our stay at MerSea! We loved being able to wake up to perfect views and walk to the beach in seconds. Instead of the usual trek, hauling beach toys and chairs, etc, we could just pop back to the house in no time if we needed anything. The location is close enough to all the attractions but removed enough to feel like we had our own private beach. The house is beautiful, clean and has everything we needed for a perfect vacation with family and friends. We cannot recommend highly enough!
