Great Location

This was perfect for our family with littles! The house is right on the beach, with hardly anyone else around. We could walk down and back to the water whenever we wanted. It’s so close to the aquarium, and the USS Lexington. A lot of options for food with a short drive. This was a great trip!

Great place! Great Location!

This place is a great place to kick back, relax and enjoy your ocean view. The deck overlooking the ocean is very spacious and the house itself is a hidden gem. You're steps away from the beach and the walking path that will take you to the aquarium and the USS Lexington. The beds were very comfortable and the space is very inviting. We will definitely stay again if we are ever in the area. Highly recommended.

The property is right on the beach. You can walk straight from the back porch right onto the sand.The location is also convenient for many of the local attractions like the Lexington and state aquarium. Literally just minutes down the road. I would highly recommend.

My brother and I had the pleasure of staying at this beautiful beach house, "Reef on the Beach", in North Beach, Texas. The house is absolutely beautiful inside and outside. The check-in process went very smoothly. Once inside, the ambiance is very welcoming because it contains absolutely everything you could possibly need in a home away from home. The kitchen facilities are top notch and the open layout makes everything so functional and airy. Overall, our stay was incredible and we will definitely rent this gorgeous beach house for our next vacation.
This beautiful view is what you wake up to every single day! Oh my goodness, this is a dream come true.
These words express exactly how we feel about our visit to Reef on the Beach for our vacation!
Beautiful sunset walks are incredible every single night!
The beautiful evening skies are breathtaking when you are at Reef on the Beach!
