About this property
Captain's Quarters-Hot Tub, Fire Pit, Fenced Yard
Summary:
The chic Captain's Quarters offers a unique outdoor Captain's Cabana and wraparound views of the Gulf, Beach AND Bay sunrise/sunset from the fabulous hot tub deck! This beach home is just a 10 sec walk down the street one way to stand Gulfside (best sunrises spot) and 15 sec the other way to get ON the beautiful sandy & seashell-lined beach. What a great spot!
The Space:
Enjoy the plentiful activities of Treasure Island's beach community as you unwind in our spacious, open and well-appointed home. Pack the cooler, small Weber grill, beach gear, fishing rods, etc to savor the sea & sandy beach just a quick walk or scenic stroll away. Have a boat? Use the island's private launch. Save up your energy and end the day with an oceanfront beach bonfire while you go crabbing or just listen to the sounds of the surf.
When done outdoors for the day, come back to a huge wraparound deck, modern furnishings and all the conveniences to make your vacation enjoyable. The place is designed perfectly for entertaining-open floor plan, 4K Ultra HD tv, Sony sound system w/ bluetooth for playing your preferred tunes, full wine bar w/ fridge and margarita maker, dining table seating for 8+ plus large dinette (great for board games) and bar stools galore!
Bringing the kiddos? The beach-themed bunk room is ready to go with a huge Queen over Queen bunk bed and comfortable bean bag chair for reading the "Pirateology" book.

The Neighborhood:
TREASURE ISLAND:
The 979 Crew just loves this seaside and bayside community flanked by Galveston Island on one end and Surfside Beach on the other. On your drive, stop by the grocery store for your favorite grillables and beverages, make a pit stop at the bait shop to fill your bait bucket (great fishing in TI), and/or place a call to make arrangements to rent a golf cart - this is a very golf cart friendly spot. Enjoy the Gulfside's uncrowded pedestrian beach (no cars allowed for 300 yards but golf carts welcomed) where you can setup your group's camp for the day on the beach to build sandcastles, jump in the surf, find unique shells and sand dollars, boogie board, shore & surf fish and build an evening bonfire. Or if preferred, utilize the available launch for your boat or kayak or head to the fishing pier on the bayside. Some much to do so little time!
Getting Around:
SAN LUIS PASS:
San Luis Pass and Treasure Island have been known all over the United States for being a saltwater fishing hotspot and the most amazing sunrises & sunsets! It is 15 minutes from Surfside and across the bridge from Galveston's west end and only about 25-30 minutes to the heart of Galveston Island's activities. Most people come to the area to spend quality 'non-commercialized" time with family, extended family, and friends!
Other Things to Note:
HOSTED BY THE 979 CREW ADVANTAGE:
The 979 Crew is comprised of island locals who are passionate about making sure the home you chose is nothing short of clean, comfortable, and ready for your group's fun! Every home is fully and professionally cleaned after each guest stay. In addition, all of our homes feature luxury hotel-quality/high thread count on all sheets, bedding, and bath towels which are replaced upon every turnover including the duvet covers and shams (we've heard not every company does this, and we think that's just gross). We take clean seriously! When you rent a 979 home, you'll also receive the 'comforts of home' guest welcome starter supply of shampoo, shower gel, conditioner, tp and paper towels, dishwasher and clothes washer pods. We want your stay to be as easy as you do, and the 979 Crew aims to deliver on that commitment. We love our island guests!

The house is super cute and the kitchen has everything you need for cooking. The gates are really perfect if you have pets too because you can block the patio or the yard. That worked really well for our pups! It’s a short walk from the beach and you can see the water from the hot tub!
I so look forward to our stay in this house every year! It’s wonderfully furnished and very thoughtfully equipped with everything you need to make it your home away from home for a few days (or weeks, if you’re that lucky!) The beach is steps away, parking space is ample, and the fenced yard is a nice pet perk. Kudos to the owners/management team for keeping the house furnishings fresh with new accessories every year! In neighborhood news, happy to report mosquitoes were under control this year!Thank you for another delightful vacation stay! Can’t wait to be back next year!
Property was even better than abvertised! Clean, roomy, kitchen was fully stocked for cooking meals. Beach is just a short walk away and is clean and not over crowded. Things to note. Location is great but it's a little bit of a drive to get to a store. Lot's of stairs. Would definitely stay again!
Everything was in great shape. Beach and fishing excellent.
Plenty of room in the house, nice kitchen and appliances.
One small thing could not find a broom to sweep up. That was very minor, everything was great
We loved every minute of our stay. The beach was just a short walk down the road and it wasn’t crowded whatsoever. During the weekdays, we were maybe one family out of 10 on the entire stretch of beach. We found tons of big seashells, saw crabs and even caught a small fish. The house was so clean and airy with the windows and we enjoyed the sound of the waves from the deck and the sunsets were amazing. The hot tub was a huge hit with the kids and great for relaxing after a day at the beach. Kitchen was well stocked with cooking supplies and the beds were comfy. We would definitely stay here again!
This property was beautiful, and so incredibly spacious, which was perfect for the six adults in our family! We loved having so much living space both inside and out. There were multiple outdoor seating areas/decks that were on different levels and different sides of the house, so it had a “private” feel to it, as did the hot tub deck. We took advantage of the gas fire pit and there was ample seating for everyone. It was all so so lovely. The master bedroom and bathroom are truly luxurious and everyone agreed all the beds were comfy and the sheets were cotton! (We don’t prefer jersey knit sheets.) Water pressure was great, the kitchen was well-stocked, and the house had no weird smells. We were thrilled to find a second refrigerator in the laundry room, which was our beverage fridge.
Things to note:
1) Pack a few extra dish towels - the dishwasher wasn’t always effective, so we hand washed some dishes that came out of the dishwasher to get them truly clean, and having a few more dish towels than the three small ones provided would have been helpful.
2) Due to the hit or miss dishwasher, be sure to check the cleanliness of everything in the cabinet before use.
3) Bring Kleenex - no tissue in the house.
4) If coming from downtown Galveston or going into Galveston, there is a $2 toll bridge just east of this rental property. Be sure or bring some cash, as the toll booth is actually manned by a person! (I’m unsure if they take credit cards?)
Great location and the beach was nice and not crowded at all! House was clean and had everything you needed and more! Awesome welcome basket for us, we enjoyed!

Wonderful stay, beautiful house
The house was in a very nice neighborhood with a great view of the surf. The house was very clean and stocked with higher end amenities. The house was very close to the beach which made for a wonderful run every morning.
This is our third year in this house, and our ninth in the Treasure Island neighborhood - all 979 properties are designed and managed to the highest hospitality standards. Thank you for a wonderful stay, once again!

Uber chic retreat!
Felt like a home away from home with contemporary furnishings and endless amenities! If the hubs and I didn't have our kids (two and four-legged kinds), we would've happily stayed in more. Lovely property!
