Annual Family Beach Trip
We had an awesome time despite the weather. There was 8 of us and we had plenty of room. Love the large bar/table where we could all eat and play games together. Nothing better than being directly on the beach-which is a must for this family.

Awesome Vacation Beach House
This is our second year in a row staying at this beach house and we had a wonderful time again! The beach house is beautiful, the location is amazing being right on the beach, and the family had the best time. So relaxing and quiet. The owners are great and very responsive and make sure our stay is always the best! We will be back again!

Birthday Weekend
The house is located on a less traveled end of Bolivar. Nice to walk on the beach with very little traffic. Floorplan is well done. Plenty of private bedrooms and a wonderful loft for our teenage daughters. Favorite part is the huge table in the kitchen. Great for gathering everyone together. It was clean and communication with management was great. I would recommend this house for any size group.

sandy cheeks vacation
we arrived after dark and had a hard time finding the property...............I was looking for a blue/green house..........which it is on the front.............but not on the back. The hot water was not hot enough, the sink leaked, and the outdoor water handle broke. We called and they came right out and fixed it. So glad for that. The location was amazing..........Right ON the beach........just a very short walk to the water. We like to cook and found the kitchen lacking. Would have been nice to have a kitchenaid mixer, a round pizza pan, a better pastry brush, more storage containers with lids. The stove and oven worked great. The barbeque grill was very basic and old. The house itself was great........great seating in the kitchen with enought stools around the counter for 9 people. Lots of counter space to prepare food on. lots of bedrooms and beds. There was no hairdryer in my bathroom. My bathroom could use some non skid bathroom rugs...........towels on the floor. The stairs to the house were endless.............haha. the outdoor eating area was nice as was the deck in front of the house. We had a great time. Just a few quirks to overcome.

We usually take a vacation every summer with grandkids, grandparents, parent's, grown kids, siblings nieces and nephews. The house is noisy and kids are everywhere but the time together is priceless. Memaw and Pepaw (my husband and I) stayed in the loft with all of the grandkids to let their parent's have a couple of nights to their selves.We had memories of a lifetime. Thank you Sandy Cheeks! We had a blast!

Summer Fun at Sandy Cheeks
What an amazing home! We stayed at Sandy Cheeks for a 4 generation Family Vacation!!! Everything was perfect! Everything we needed was available. The decorations throughout the house were spot on for a beach house…a lot of thought was put in to make this a fun and comfortable stay. The rooms were perfect…everyone had their own space and we weren’t on top of each other. The deck and view was fantastic…right on the beach, steps to the water. I highly recommend Sandy Cheeks as the perfect beach house to stay at…and we look forward to returning sometime soon!!!

Awesome house and location!
This house was great in regards to pretty much everything. It was a secluded location, meaning it was not a busy part of the beach and there is not a close big store. Bring swim shoes bc the beach there has a ton of seashells everywhere. We had a wonderful time!

Great house for multiple families
The house was great, it does sway when the wind blows or someone is climbing up the stairs. It did freak all of us out a little bit but we didn’t feel unsafe. The beach has a ton of seashells crushed up so water shoes would be great to have. Even in the ocean makes it tough to walk. There is only one grocery store nearby that doesn’t have a lot and is very overpriced. Catching the ferry is very frustrating. We waited an hour and a half. The house was great though. But next time we will stay in Galveston near Jamaica Beach.
