About this property

Château Soleil | Beachfront, in Spanish Grant

Château Soleil is french; château = large estate and soleil = sun, which is perfectly fitting, as this estate offers large windows throughout that let the sun and beach views extend inside the five-bedroom, three-bath home, and also offers storm shutters for those who enjoy total darkness for sleeping late.

This amazing home offers one of the best decks in Galveston with three access areas from the home. Talk about expansive, with tile flooring, natural wood above, unobstructed views and a railing that allows guests to see the view even when sitting and relaxing.

Château Soleil is an open-floorplan, great for entertaining guests and holding family get-togethers. The living area offers a 2-story vaulted ceiling with almost floor-to-ceiling windows, a large U-shape sectional sofa, complete with an interior overlook from the second floor.

Château Soleil The kitchen is wonderful for entertaining, with plenty of room for moving around, stainless steel appliances, French door refrigerator, ice-maker, granite countertops throughout, 2 huge islands, and an extra bar sink! This is the kitchen for you foodies out there! The kitchen is open to the dining and living areas.

SLEEPING: The true primary bedroom (king bed sleeps 2 + sofa sleeper sleeps 2) is located on the second floor with an ensuite bathroom. A second primary is also located on the second level with a queen bed (sleeps 2) and an ensuite bath. From the second primary bedroom, guests may access the loft bedroom, located on the third level, which offers a full over full bunk (sleeps 4). Two additional queen bedrooms (2x2, sleeps 4 in both bedrooms) are located on the first floor with a jack and jill bath between. Please note, to access the second bedroom on the main level, guests must pass through the first bedroom. Château Soleil may accommodate a total of 14 guests.

SPANISH GRANT
Spanish Grant is a quaint, cozy, welcoming, friendly, island beach village, established well before the ’90s, located just seven miles West of 61st Street, with just three rows of beach homes and offers multiple pathways to access the beach. The beach in Spanish Grant is not a drive-on beach, which many families with small children prefer.

Ryson partners exclusively with Gulf Coast Concierge to make your time on the island unforgettable! Gulf Coast Concierge understands it's the little things that count. Create your own adventures with beach gear and golf cart rentals, a sunset cruise or a bonfire and smores on the beach.

Super Fun on the Beach
This house is really fun! Every room has a view of the ocean as you are literally on the beach. There were no issues with communication, the accommodations were great, and we had plenty of room for four adults and three kids. Everything went perfectly well and it was easy to reserve, check in, and leave. If you are looking for a getaway directly on the beach, I recommend this house!

Beachfront Gem
This property was great! Pros: - Location cannot be beat; literally 25-30 steps to the beach - So many balconies! Every level had a balcony; the bedroom with the king bed has a screened in balcony, you can leave the doors open at night to hear the waves if you want to. Perfect for drinking coffee in the mornings and watching the sunrise! - Big beautiful windows on every level for taking in the view - Well-stocked kitchen as far as utensils go; two different fridge/freezers to put food in - Living room/dining area/kitchen all open to each other, perfect for larger groups to be able to congregate - Bedrooms are spacious - Air conditioner works VERY well! Cons: - Stairs, lots of them! This house is more difficult for elderly or people with bad knees to navigate; there are two flights of stairs to go up to get to the main level of the house, and another two flights to get up to two of the bedrooms - There are two bedrooms on the main level, and you have to go through one of those bedrooms to get to the other bedroom; not a problem if everyone is going to bed at the same time or if privacy is not a concern, but might be an issue otherwise - There is a washer and dryer, washer works fine but dryer does not dry very well, especially if you are washing and drying towels; most of our items had to be tumble dried for a few hours to get dry, whereas the towels had to be laid out to air dry most of the way before finishing in dryer Will stay here again!

Great location.
Great spot, on the beach. The pictures don't do the view justice. It is on the beach with 180⁰ views. We will book this place again on the next visit.

Great house, location and private beach but Ryson Rental is your host and not a good one.
The house is nice and has great views of the ocean from every room. Even though some had to walk through different bedrooms to get to another we made it work. Some shutters didn’t close all the way. Back door to deck doesn’t lock but the shutters closed. No table on the deck. Telescope on deck doesn’t seem to work. No stairs from the deck to the ground. A couple other things didn’t work. Worst of all the freezer went out. Ryson Rental was not easy to get a hold of and did not always respond the same day without being persistent which took me away from family time. Before the trip I sent questions that did not get answered for three or more days. We arrived on a Thursday afternoon. Discovered the freezer was not working Friday morning. We were not given a workable solution until Saturday morning. We had to buy extra ice to keep food mostly frozen.
