New Beachfront House w/ Stunning Ocean Views! Best Galveston Location! Must See!

Sandcastle is located next to Stewart beach (best family Beach and location in Galveston!)in a small, quiet, gated community with Approx 4,000 sq. ft. of open floor plan.

This large gorgeous, yet quaint home features beautifully, modern and open space throughout with cozy furnishings and plenty of glorious natural light with tastefully decorated interior throughout to accommodate up to 18 people comfortably. Additionally, the spacious Patios front and back for both sun lovers and those who prefer the shade, with breathtaking views of the Ocean and the Beach is only a stone's throw away....

There's no need to fight over the bedroom with the Ocean View! This house has 6 Bedrooms & 5.5 Bathrooms, 3 of which has Ocean Views & Full Bathrooms attached. Essentially 3 King Master Bedrooms with Ocean Views...

Bedroom #1 on 1st floor: Master Suite w/ Ocean View
Bedroom #2 on 1st floor: Queen Bed with Private Full Bathroom Attached

This 1st Floor is a terrific size with open layout for a family or group of close friends escaping to the Beach together. The Family Room has an Xlarge sectional, conversational seats throughout, large round table with 6 chairs and 6 barstools for the kitchen island. Plenty of seating for everyone! Full kitchen, equipped with all the necessary appliances, pots & pans, dishes and coffee & creamer with every stay.

You certainly won't have to venture far from the House to experience all that Galveston has to offer! Thanks to this fabulous location mere steps away from the ocean, it's likely that you'll want to spend the majority of your trip lounging on Galveston's warm sandy beaches or swimming in the Gulf of Mexico. This property is by far the best location for visiting Galveston, in a small, quiet, gated community (gatecode required) which is located on the Gulf of Mexico side of the island, right next to Stewart Beach(best family beach in Galveston with volleyball courts and volleyball tournaments, sandcastle competition blocks away, concerts, and food truck events, helicopter tour pad, etc. all throughout the summer. Only 1.5 miles from Downtown Galveston (the Strand) and Historic Sites, 2 miles from Pleasure Pier (which you can see from the Patio) and next to the Seawall. The Galveston Seawall is a wonderful place to walk, bike, shop or simply relax while admiring the beachfront scenery, and it ends right next to the house. If you don’t know Galveston, this house is centrally located and is the best Galveston has to offer. You won’t be disappointed!

the ultimate location for our extended weekend stay! Immaculate views of the beach, sunrise and sunset! The balcony views of the beach were unobstructed and gorgeous! Property was beautifully decorated and well maintained! Had everything we wanted for a beach getaway! Hosts response was immediate and warming. Location was on point- beach access, private community - very close to restaurants and the strand. Highly recommended!

Loved staying at this property! The house is the most beautiful we have ever seen and is so close to the beach. Loved waking up to the view every morning. Would love to stay again, but it's so popular you have to act fast!

Our multigenerational family came to celebrate a vow renewal for our 40th wedding anniversary. Jamie and Jeff were friendly and accommodating, the house was spotless, and there were so many extra nice touches! From coffee and detergent to plenty of beach toys available, we had more than we needed at our disposal. It was a great place to stay, and we hope to be back soon!

The location of the house is great! It’s a very family friendly beach with no seaweed or trash. We had plenty of room in the house for 5 children & 9 adults. Loved all the bedrooms and especially the en-suite bathrooms for all the bedrooms! And the kitchen is well stocked which is a big thing for our family since we cook a lot! Great vacation!

Overall our stay was great. A lot of things were damaged or broken ,but the house was beautiful and well designed for large families.The view was amazing. We noticed mouse droppings on the first morning under the stove and contacted the host. Their response was quick and they sent a cleaner out. There were no more issues and we assumed the previous night storm had brought in a mouse. I would recommend this property.

This is a perfect property for families and friends, especially those that have children. The rooms are bigger than expected, including the living room. The kitchen is well stocked and had everything we needed. The location is perfect as it is a short walk across the pedestrian bridge. It is also close to all the stores and other points of interest in Galveston. Above it all, the views of the sunset at dinner time is just stunning.

My extended family stayed at Jamie and Jeff's new beach house over spring break and had an absolutely fabulous time. The house is beautiful and spacious with lots of room for a large group to spread out. The view of the beach is lovely and the neighborhood is quiet and peaceful. It is located very close to downtown Galveston including the Strand and the Pleasure Pier. We walked the beach down to the pleasure pier and had a blast with the kids. Jamie communicated very promptly with me about any questions I had during the stay.

We absolutely loved the location and layout of this property! The patio had plenty of seating to enjoy the beautiful ocean views! The neighborhood is quite and safe with direct beach access a few doors down from the property! Tons of beach toys for use - we didn’t have to bring a thing! The 2 upstairs master rooms had Jack & Jill connecting bathrooms to the kids bunk rooms, lots of living space, lots of beautiful beach views all through the house. Jamie was super attentive and helpful during our stay as well! Definitely recommend!

This house is Great beach house ! The views from front and back were great, watching the sun come up in the morning and set in the evening all from the enjoyment of the den ! The golf was the best part for loading up and going to the beach or just driving down the street for ice cream runs ! We have stayed at other houses here on the beach and this is the very best ! We will differently come back . Don B.

One of our best rental experiences. Property met/exceeded the listing and associated pictures. Fully equipped from kitchen to bathroom suites to beach fun! Configuration was perfect for our 4 couples and two infants. Had some basic baby needs (pack n’ plays, bassinet, high chair). Beach access is an easy 10 minute walk from the house via private boardwalk. Wagon allows you to haul beach toys/games. Kroger is ~10 mins away to stock up. Owners were very nice/responsive on a couple simple questions we had. Definitely will stay here again.

The property itself was large and beautiful. The grill area which, our guests commented looked "slummy and trashy with dirty cushions piled on top of each other". Since the grill and beach chairs were included in the add, it was very disappointing. The grill was rusted and filthy and not fit to barbecue on. The chairs that we expected to be able to take to the beach (as advertised), were rusted out and unususable. This was extremely disappointing since we paid almost 10,000 with taxes and fees for 3 nights! We wound up asking a guest from Montgomery to bring chairs and purchase the rest. There were 13 of us. A big part of renting a beach house is to be able to enjoy the beach. We wound up with 6 chairs for our whole group. Since the house is large, beautiful and able to sleep 12 comfortably, we would like to visit again when the elevator is installed (2 of us are handicapped), and a new and clean grill is available in a clean and attractive lower patio. It would be nice to sit in a comfortable area while food is grilled. Otherwise, we ha e to lug barbecued food up 3 flights of stairs. In addition to resort appropriate beach chairs

The home has a few major things and many smaller things that need attention. First there were mice in the kitchen and main floor bedrooms, with mice seen running across the kitchen counter and droppings every morning on the bed headboards and night stands. There were leaks in the roof upstairs that caused the couch in the game room to be damp our entire visit and a leak in one of the upstairs bedroom closets with what looked like mold growing. The game room pool table had pool sticks that were broken and the table itself had broken pockets and wasn't level. All of the paddles for ping pong were worn and tattered as well. The fans in the upstairs bedrooms did not work. Each room had remote controls for the fans but no batteries that fit the upstairs remotes. We requested batteries for the upstairs remotes but received the wrong size batteries delivered. When we reported the mice, we were told that the pest company would be coming after our visit. Additionally, the railing that led to the upstairs was not attached to the wall, the faucet in the main floor half bath was loose, the doors that led to both the upstairs deck and main floor decks were extremely sticky and difficult to open, the flooring on the main level had several cracked and broken areas, the golf cart would not start....there was so many of these type of things. Generally the property is over priced for the number of unmaintained items and infestation issues.
