You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Jaw-dropping bayfront home with panoramic water views, boat slip, and cowboy pool

Sitting elegantly on the edge of the sparkling bay, this sprawling vacation home in Terramar Beach has four levels and space for up to 20 of your friends and family. Park your boat at the private covered dock and bring your fishing gear— this is one of the best fishing spots on the coast! There’s also a barbeque area, screened-in patio, and multiple outdoor spaces for relaxing in the fresh bay breezes. Rent it and relax— you’ve found your home-away-from-home on the Texas Gulf Coast.

Location: Terramar Beach community of Galveston, Texas

Beach access: Terramar beach access point is a 30 second car ride or a 3-4 minute walk away

Private pool: We have a Cowboy soaking pool on the ground level that can comfortably fit up to 8 people when it's time to relax and cool off.

Community Amenities: Guests have access to the Terramar beach community pool— open Memorial Day thru Labor Day— and the boat launch and marina with the provided keys.

Rent BeachBox: Looking for beach gear for your Galveston getaway? We have you covered! Beach chairs and tents can be ready at the house upon your arrival. Message us for details and rates.

WIFI: Free high-speed WIFI is available throughout the home.

Cable: We provide Roku with access to Sling TV for live television channels. Guests are welcome to log into their own Amazon Prime, Netflix, or other streaming service apps as well.

Pet policy: Up to 3 pets are welcome in our home with a $25 fee per pet. We ask that pets stay off all furniture, are cleaned up after in the yard, and aren't left alone inside the home unless in a crate or kennel. Please message us if you’re planning on bringing your furry friend!

Large Groups: We love hosting church groups and large family gatherings, however groups over the size of 16 guests must be approved prior to booking.

Parking: 2 cars can fit in the garage and 2-4 cars can fit in the driveway. No street parking allowed.

Party Policy: No parties are allowed at our home. Please look elsewhere if that is the intent of your trip.

Age Requirement: Guests must be 24+ to book.

The open living spaces are downright dreamy with beautiful, unobstructed bay views from all levels on the home. The kitchen opens up to the dining area and living space, with plenty of countertop space for food prep and serving.

The first bedroom is down the hallway and is a secondary master suite— complete with a king-size bed and a private, ensuite bathroom. Two more bedrooms are on the main level, one bunk room that is always a big hit with the kids, and another room with a queen bed and full over full bunk bed. A full bathroom with a tub/shower combo can be accessed from the hallway.

The main master suite occupies the entire third level and is ultra-private. Painted a soothing sea blue with white trim, the master suite has a sumptuous king-size bed and french doors that open wide to sweeping views of the bay from your private balcony. The giant master bathroom has two walk-in closets, a double vanity, a separate tub, and a step-in shower. Climb up the stairs to the fourth-floor lookout for a birds-eye view of the coast.

The extraordinary outdoor spaces are sure to be a hit with everyone in your group. You can choose to relax in the screened-in patio on the main level with a glass of wine and a great book. Or, head out into the open air and work on your tan. Host a family dinner outside at twilight while a pink and purple sunset lights up the skies above you. Make your way down to the ground level and enjoy the Cowboy soaking pool, or head to the boat dock to do some fishing.

When your crew wants to spend a day at the beach, the access point for Terramar beach is about a 2-minute drive away. The mouthwatering restaurants of the West End Marina are also just a short hop from your front door. And the hustle-bustle of the Galveston Strand and the thrilling Pleasure Pier are a short drive away. This bayside home is the epitome of a Texas Gulf Coast paradise.

We are unable to price match any rates found on other booking platforms.

Perfectly located. Quick drive to San Louis Beach and to Seven Seas store, which has everything! 25 minute drive to the Sea Wall. Nice quiet neighborhood, good fishing and crabbing, beautiful view of the bay. Our new favorite vaca spot. Room for everyone. Bring chairs for outside seating down stairs. Study remote controlled fans and lighting.

Great fishing, great views
We enjoyed the open floor plan for our group of 9 adults. 2 adult couples, 2 young adult couples. Sons and daughters. We brought our boat up for fishing and the dock was easy to access. Caught 3 large reds right off the house dock. Sunsets were beautiful in the quiet neighborhood. Highly recommend the West end marina 8 min away for the karaoke bar, restaurant and local grocery. It had all we needed.

Esthetic!
Property met, and exceeded expectations! Spacious and clean. Supplies such as plates, glasses, towels, were in plenty and CLEAN. Great getaway for me and a host of girls. We spent two nights; December 2023 created great memories. Will rent again at a heartbeat! Please bring mosquito spray, only if you plan spending time infront of building. Building sits in water...literally. No mosquitos in the backyard. We had a backyard Hibachi dinner...no mosquitos.

Perfect Getaway
We did an adult trip for my birthday and everyone had a fantastic time! We have a big group that goes to Port A every year but everyone started discussing the possibility of coming back to this house and finding others in the area instead. The sunset was amazing from the Cowboy Pool! It was so enjoyable to be able to swim, fish, or run over to the beach. Made it easy to have different options. I’d say my only complaint was not being able to use to the ladder from the dock. I rented a couple kayaks and it would have made it much easier to be able to get in and out of them from there. A chair broken on the top of the deck but it really did not affect us at all. Nothing that would cause us to not come back again! We’ll all definitely be back!

Something for the whole family.
There were 11 in our group, so a house that accommodates 20 was very manageable. The young children enjoyed the Texas pool and the teens and young adults enjoyed the fishing dock and kayaking in the bay. The stand alone freezer came in handy and the large refrigerator was nice. There were a couple of issues encountered, but the management team took care of them immediately. The house is a little dated but very functional. The absolute best thing was the air conditioning. The house was always cool and comfortable. All in all, it was a good stay.

We had people from 8-63. Love the cowboy pool! Close to beach, fishing, kayaking and hanging out. Love that the kitchen was well stocked with everything I needed to feed 13 people. Silverware, dishes, cups, bakeware, pots and pans. Able to store all our groceries in the huge pantry. Plenty of room for my introverts to get away and recharge. Would definitely rent again!

Amazing stay!!
Our stay at this bayfront house was great. The deck was a real winner - big and with a view of the bay that took our breath away. Nighttime was the best part, though. We'd sit around fishing, talking, and just enjoying each other's company under the stars. It was more than just a holiday house to us; it felt like a home that brought us closer. Truly an experience we won't forget.
