Then enjoy evenings on the wraparound deck, sharing stories and watching the sunset. For some friendly competition, head downstairs to the large game room - perfect for family game nights or a fun hangout for the younger crowd.

Step inside the main floor and be greeted by the warmth of an open-concept living area. The fully-equipped kitchen boasts a breakfast bar with seating, perfect for mornings spent planning beach adventures or evenings filled with laughter and shared meals. The adjoining dining area offers a comfortable space to gather together, while the spacious living room invites relaxation with a large couch and big-screen TV – ideal for movie nights.

This level also features three bedrooms. One room boasts a luxurious king-sized bed, another offers a restful night's sleep with two queen beds, and the third provides cozy comfort with a queen-sized bed. Need extra space for the whole crew? Head up the spiral staircase to the loft area.

But the fun doesn't stop there! Descend to the ground level and discover the ultimate entertainment zone – a massive game room! Challenge your friends and family to a game of ping-pong or foosball, or catch a movie on the big-screen TV. This floor also has additional sleeping arrangements with 3 full-over-queen bunk beds, making Casa Del Mar ideal for families and groups of all sizes.

And finally, step outside to your own private oasis! Unwind on the wraparound porch swing on the main level, or soak up the sun on the expansive cement patio surrounding the sparkling in-ground pool downstairs.

Nice beach house
This house was nice for a large group. The sleeping arrangements were almost spot on for our 19 member group. I think the website should include that the third bathroom is actually the outdoor shower area.

Destination property with every amenity
This is the perfect property for a large group. So close to the beach, gorgeous panoramic views, so many spaces for entertaining. The floor plan is fantastic and the house is well equipped. Props to the host for being very responsive and helpful. Fire pit, ping pong, and so much more. WYSIWYG - an awesome experience!

Galveston House
The check in process was very easy and accommodating. Upon entry the house was very clean. As we began to settle in we noticed the floors were chipping and some slight mold in the bathrooms. Also bathroom toilet seats were not secure. The floors throughout creeked pretty badly and some parts were lifted. We absolutely loved the gaming room downstairs. We never realized we had to completely exit the home to enter the basement part of the house. Made it quite difficult for our kids but we managed. The pool and yard looked wonderful and we wish it wasn't too cold to swim!

Great property but maintenance wasn’t great.
We enjoyed the property and believe it has so much potential. It was a great space with lots of room. It was pretty dirty from previous renters though. Light fixtures were extremely dusty, floors were sticky, dishes weren’t clean, there was trash from previous renters and tape stuck to a lot of things, and the door knobs were missing on a lot of doors, bugs cooked into the coffee pot, we couldn’t find some light switches we would have liked and not much privacy in restrooms. I believe it could be great if it were cleaner and a little more love to the house. We had a great time and did love our stay but for the price we believe it needs a lot more attention.

Quick Getaway
Love the size and private pool this property has to offer. The beds were super comfy and plenty of bath towels. I was disappointed in a couple of things. We spotted roaches and ants in the house. Also there were NO essentials provided in the kitchen such as salt/pepper/sugar/oil. For a beach house, I would expect lots of hooks to hang towels and bathing suits. No hooks, anywhere in bedrooms or bathrooms.

We had 18 women with us and there was plenty of room for all the fun to be had. We had some minor issues we quickly mentioned upon arrival (lights outside not working, bugs) and the property manager did an excellent job at getting those fixed right away for us to completely enjoy our stay! The pool was great, and the views/location were amazing! We had a blast!

Poor housekeeping—spacious house
Grandchildren loved the pool. I did report that no one could help us turn pool lights on. At night the roaches came out in kitchen. We sprayed the kitchen ourselves. Also when we got there, I had to clean up vomit by the bed in the bedroom on the right. Everything else was very clean. Also trash cans downstairs were full and very smelly. We had one trash can to use. The main problem is the housekeeping staff.

Beautiful location but
This place has potential but there's definitely work to be done. The best parts were the outdoor spaces. The decks and pool area. Pros: -Beautiful location close to the beach -Wrap around deck with chairs -Nice pool and fire pit area -Lots of dishes, silverware -Bunk room good for kids -Good parking for several vehicles Cons: -No cutting board, extra blankets or dust pan -Blender didn't work. Had to buy one. -One chair for the table on deck was broken. -Only part of the pool lights worked leaving the half with the table in the dark. -Two of the 4 trash cans were full when we arrived. -There was trash left from previous occupants laying around outside, on chairs, table, etc. -And there were bugs that we could live with and then there were the roaches. Too many to ignore. In drawers, cupboards, the dishwasher, etc. For as much money as we spent, it should have been in pristine condition! It is in a beautiful location and could be an ideal vacation home if it were better maintained. We would not recommend it the way it is now.

Nice place that could be nicer
We had significant difficulties reaching the host prior to arrival. I requested check in information many times and did not get a response. VRBO support eventually got in touch with the on-site property manager who told us to just arrive at the location. When we arrived they informed us that there was a problem with our room, but they would put us up somewhere else for the night. We were brought to a nice place for the night and transported back the next day. The property was basically as listed, but in need of some TLC. The two lounge chairs in the private roof area are white plastic and one was broken. The towels are worn. The beds in the guest room just had sheets. The sofa was uncomfortable, maybe time for a replacement. There are two balconies, but no furniture to sit on. Pool is nice. Location is good. Short walk to Avenue 5 and the beach. Next door to a huge grocery store. Very nice staff. No one spoke English but with cell phone translators we never had a problem communicating. We really enjoyed our stay.
