About this property

Hot Tub on the main Surfside Beach :) Next door to A-frames! "Starfish Swim-up"

Discount for 7-night stays!

Wake up over the waves with a 180° view of the sunrise while you watch dolphins swim by.

Enjoy the safety of the only car-free stretch of beach in Surfside (Pedestrian Beach). This beach is much more private / less crowded than anywhere else miles around. Spacious patio and the only deck with a hot tub on the Pedestrian beach.

No need to cross any roads, boardwalks, etc to get to the beach. For your convenience, the beach is right at the bottom of the stairs.

No need to set up camp on the beach, since you can come in and out of the shade or up onto the deck easily anytime during the day. Watch your family and friends play in the surf from the deck.

This location is right in the heart of Surfside. The house is a 1-minute drive from the main bridge to Freeport and within easy walking distance to the best restaurants and nightlife. etc. Ample parking and beds for a very large group.

This house offers a truly unique experience in the Surfside area.

-- OUTDOOR LIVING --

- BEACH -
Quiet, safe, uncrowded, warm-water beach on the only stretch of sand where cars are not permitted (Pedestrian Beach).

The beach is on the property itself (no hike over a boardwalk needed). The ocean slope gets about a foot deeper every 10 feet you walk out, so it’s 5 foot deep about 50 feet out, so it’s easy to find a “sweet spot” that is shoulder-depth relatively close to shore. Dolphins regularly swim 50-75 feet offshore (where you swim).

Unless there is a burn ban, bonfires on the beach are allowed in Surfside (on the ocean side of the dune, not on the house side). From the Surfside website: “Campfires are permitted on the beach only if they are under control and no bigger than 3’ x 3’.”

- Deck -
180° views of the ocean, and shouting distance to friends playing in the surf. 4 tall polywood Adirondack chairs with built-in tables. Many lightweight chairs to arrange for your group as needed. Convenient foot wash is located at the top of the stairs to make it easy to come in from the beach feeling clean and sand-free.

- Hot Tub -
6-person hot tub perched on the upper deck with fantastic views. Easy-open cover lifter.

- Ground level -
1500 sq ft concrete pad for parking and/or living. 2 picnic tables, charcoal grill, and 4 beach swings. Outdoor shower. Assorted beach chairs and umbrellas.

Paradise Found! A Beach House Gem with Outstanding Hospitality!
Our stay at this beach house was pure bliss! The owner's hospitality was exceptional, making us feel incredibly welcome. The house itself was stunning, with breathtaking ocean views and modern amenities. Private beach access was a dream come true, and the owner's helpfulness made our stay even more enjoyable. We can't wait to come back for another perfect vacation! Highly recommended!

Perfect beach house
This is a great property right on the beach! Everything was perfect for our party of 13. Plenty of beds, sofas, eating areas and parking for our multiple vehicles. The owner was very responsive to any questions or concerns. We particularly loved being able to have our groceries delivered from H‑E‑B the same night we arrived. We also loved the location so close to a small grocery store, restaurants, the levy, and ice whenever we needed it. The rinse off shower under the house, three huge trash containers and baby gates were an added bonus. We would definitely recommend this property! Thank you to Kourtney and her husband for making our vacation so perfect.

Annual Beach Trip
The property was fantastic, beds were cozy, and Kourtney was helpful throughout. The kids loved the swings and the quick access to the beach just to the side of the house around the dunes. We had an amazing time. The only, and I mean only, detractor would be that there is not enough pots/pans to feed a group the size that the house can hold. We made it work without much fuss, though. So can you!

About the host

Hosted by Kourtney

Host profile image
Hi, I'm Kourtney! My husband and I have hosted over 3,000 guests are our beachfront Texas properties. Our small family business is called Lone Star Casitas.

We are native Austinites, and we are blessed to have a large and loving family.

For over a decade, we have been booking vacation rentals on Texas beaches (Surfside, Port Aransas, and South Padre) big enough for our whole family to get together.

As our family grew (we have four children ourselves in addition to nieces and nephews), it became more and more difficult to find vacation rentals big enough for our family, safe for small children, and reasonably affordable.

As a family that travels to Texas beaches frequently, we felt like we had learned what the best vacation rental hosts do to make family vacations fun, safe, simple, affordable, and memorable.

We wanted to pass on what we had learned and host lifelong memories for other large families and friend groups!

In the summer of 2022, we set out to find an ideal beach house.

Why they chose this property

In June 2022, on an anniversary trip to Surfside Beach, we fell in love with the Pedestrian beach in Surfside Beach Texas.

With 180-degree views, a safe spot for children with no vehicles, and a location right in the center of town, it’s an ideal vacation spot.

What makes this property unique

- One of the few houses directly on the beach in surfside (no boardwalk needed)
- Right in the middle of the spacious pedestrian beach (no cars allowed to drive on the beach near where you are playing).
- One of the only hot tubs on the beach in Surfside, with a fantastic view.
- Large, covered deck
- Central location (HEB delivers, close to restaurants and walking distance to the bridge to Freeport or the jetty).
- Sleeps large groups comfortably
- Ample parking and spacious outdoor area.
- Easy to watch your family and/or children play comfortably from the deck.
