About this property

Huge Deck, Walk to Beach, Great Primary Suite, Ping Pong, Bikes, Beach Equipment

Welcome to Emerald Escape, a beachside gem nestled in the heart of Pirates Beach! Kick off your flip-flops and let the fun times roll. This little slice of beach heaven is perfect for forgetting all your worries and diving into vacation mode.

Let’s start with all the great stuff you’ll find without even stepping inside. The ground level’s got you covered with private parking for 4 cars, a shaded patio for lazy evenings, an outdoor shower to keep the beach where it belongs (not in your bed!), and a charcoal grill that’s begging for a seafood barbecue. And oh, the garage? It's basically your personal rec room with a ping pong table, all the beach gear you could dream of, and bikes for when you feel like exploring.

More treasure is just around the corner! Head on up to the main level for a bright & airy living room with a wall of windows, comfy couches & side chairs centered around a flat panel TV, and gorgeous wood ceilings. The nearby kitchen, equipped with stainless steel appliances, a farmhouse sink, and great storage space includes a breakfast bar seating 3 —perfect for casual meals or chatting about the day's adventures. The adjacent dining table easily seats 6, making it easy to gather everyone together for meals.

On the main level, you'll also find two inviting bedrooms, each painted in soothing ocean hues and thoughtfully appointed to ensure a restful night's sleep. One bedroom offers a queen bed with direct deck access, perfect for enjoying that first cup of coffee outdoors. The other room is a versatile space featuring a queen bed plus a twin bunk, ideal for families or friends sharing stories into the night. The real retreat, though? That’s upstairs in the primary suite. Think king bed, your own TV, access to a private deck with a porch swing, and an en suite bath where you can wash off the salt and sand in style in the tiled shower.

Whether you're here to bask in the sun, explore the coast on bike, or simply enjoy the peace and comfort of a beachside home, Emerald Escape promises a vacation filled with laughter, relaxation, and unforgettable memories. Pack your bags and prepare for a getaway where the beach is your backyard, and every moment is a treasure waiting to be discovered.

Wonderful spot in Pirate's Beach

We really loved our time here. The porch is fantastic. It's nicely decorated. It was great for one couple with no kids and one couple with little kids, which was the makeup of our group. The kitchen is well stocked and there were tons of beach toys and a great wagon to use. Thanks for a great stay!

Great Family Getaway

We had a great time at the Pirates Beach Grand Escape 2. It was just what our family needed for a fun filled getaway. The kitchen was great and provided everything we needed. The couches and beds were super comfy. Great location….easy walk to beach….very nice neighborhood….and close to a mini store for those last minute items. The 2 patios were relaxing in the morning and evening time with coffee or a glass of wine.

We were in town for a martial arts tournament and needed a place to spread out and have quiet. The house was beautiful and clean. Communication was super easy and fast. We wish we could have spent more time there and would definitely book it in the future.

Stop looking and book this property

My family and I were in need of a weekend getaway and this property was exactly what we were looking for. It is well decorated, clean, relaxing, has plenty of seating both inside and out and had everything we needed. I was in such a hurry to get out of town I forgot all the beach supplies for a getaway to the beach. Luckily that had it all, umbrella, chairs, toys, wagon. The kitchen is well stocked and the bathrooms had plenty of towels and washcloths. The beds were comfortable and we really enjoyed hanging out on the decks listening to the ocean. Overall, this is a great place to stay, don't hesitate, rent it now.

Beautiful, Spacious and Clean

We booked this house as a mini pre-cruise vacation for our family. The house is located in a quiet neighborhood, with walking distance to the beach. The house was very clean, very spacious and awesome outdoor seating areas. I would definitely recommend this vacation rental for your next stay and will seek it out for our next family trip to Galveston.

Dreamy well appointed beautifully decorated beach house far exceeded our expectations.

Stepping inside for the first time into this lovely home took my breath away. Its immediately welcoming and visually stunning. The entire house is impeccably clean, the kitchen is well appointed, mattresses and pillows comfortable and the layout of the home provides multiple gathering places for groups to enjoy. We were also surprised to find a ping pong table, bikes, boogie boards, beach and private outdoor shower on the ground floor. Great location also. Ten out of ten.

Great house!

I very much enjoyed my stay at this property. It was homey, cute, and had the amenities we needed for cooking and beach visits. The patios are great, and the rooms are nice. There were not a lot of towels available. Our host never messaged us back and we had trouble with check in for that reason.
