Beach house vacation rentals in Galveston

We have stayed in numerous vacation rentals. This was, by far, the best! The location is exactly what we were looking for! The house was well appointed, clean and up to date! We had to contact the host just once(our mistake), and they were quick to respond and help as much as they could. We will absolutely be back!

Loved our stay here! Was a perfect location to walk to the beach, restaurants and the pier. I stayed here with my wife, kid, 2 parents and had plenty of space to feel comfortable. Would recommend this place when visiting Galveston!

We really enjoyed our stay at Vincent’s beach house. The beach is literally a few steps outside the front door. All the bedrooms and the livingroom have decks with a nice view of the beach. We stayed during Spring Break. The beach is private access so it was peaceful and was not crowded. The kids loved the hideaway spot at the top floor and made it their own little space. This place has a lot of space. The kitchen is fully equipped with a huge refrigerator. I would definitely stay again.

Everything about this house was ideal! The house felt like home, had everything you needed to be able to just relax. The deck and view were mesmerizing and the beach was a quick walk. This was the most relaxing and peaceful place we have stayed. We will come here often, thank you for providing a place for a memorable vacation!

Location, location, location. This was perfect for us to spend time in both Galveston and Freeport. The peace and privacy of this place were perfect. Just a few steps to the beach it was great. Melanie and Daryl

House is in a great location right on the beach with easy access to and from. Being able to sit out on the deck and listen to the ocean was very peaceful!

Great beach house! The view is amazing and right on the beach. We loved our stay there!

We had the best time with our large family celebrating Thanksgiving. It was the perfect place to unwind and rest and make memories. We played football and volleyball on the beach. We cooked with a fully stocked kitchen that has anything one would ever want plus some! We watched movies, took the ferry, had coffee and wine on the porch to start and close the day, respectively. We will absolutely go back! Loved this house and host!

We had a very enjoyable 4 days in Taras beautiful home. Tara did a tremendous job she thought of everything that a family would need including the above ground pool/toys /beach. Very clean and relaxing. We felt very comfortable and safe. We will definitely go back.

My daughters and I, along with their families, enjoyed a wonderful week in Gloria's beautiful home. The outdoor oasis was enjoyed by all. You could walk down to the beach, there's a wagon available to haul beach chairs/toys. Very private backyard. You won't go wrong by reserving this today!

We had 75 degree weather and rain for 5 days straight in July. Who would have thought?! Having the hot tub and fire pit really saved the trip for us. We did make it down to the beach each day for a couple hours but it was rainy and cool so we came back and warmed up in the hot tub. House was very clean and had a great selection of beach toys to borrow. Terrible mosquitos, but I think thats normal for the area and the amount of rain. Overall we had a nice time and would return. Thanks Adam for sharing your home.

This was our third time staying at the Flip Flop Inn, and it remains our favorite AirBnB out of many, many that we have stayed at all over the world. We love the decor/atmosphere, and the house is simple and bright, with plenty of room for our two families of four, but still feeling like a simple house that is not stressful to manage while staying there (like some luxury rental homes can feel). The back deck is a very pleasant place to hang out and pass the time.

Highly recommend this house for your Galveston stay especially if you have a large group! Absolutely loved the open floor plan and the front balcony was amazing for the kids to play. The pool was incredible and stocked with so many pool toys for the kids. The beach is super close - even with kids who like to take their time walking - it didn't take us more than 5 minutes and we had toes in the sand! The hosts were the most responsive and helpful that I have ever experienced - you cannot go wrong with this house! We had an incredible time and would absolutely stay here (or in any of their properties) again!

This is a beautiful house, and having your own pool for children cannot be beat. There is plenty of bedroom and bathroom space for the whole family.

nice spacious place. relaxing backyard to spend time in. close to restaurants and beach

We had such a wonderful experience staying at Joanne’s place! Her hospitality was beyond what we expected, everything was perfect! She ensured we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The house was clean, cozy, and exactly as described. Joanne was always available to answer any questions. We truly appreciated her thoughtfulness and hospitality. Great place for kids! We would definitely stay again and highly recommend them to anyone looking for a great host!

The Beach house was the perfect place to relax and refresh after the Christmas Holidays! The living spaces and beds are comfortable and the views of the lake and beach are peaceful. The kitchen and grill were well equipped to prepare all our meals! The house is a short walk to the beach which we thoroughly enjoyed. The neighborhood is quiet. We will definitely return to enjoy another stay on Bolivar!

Rudy was a great host. He was extremely responsive to any questions or concerns we had. We would definitely stay here again and would recommend this place to others. It has great views of the beach and is walkable!

Eric’s house was fabulous. Incredibly relaxing and amazingly serene location. Absolutely the best property I’ve stayed in on the Gulf.

Great place. Tammy always responded when we needed it. They had information binders of things to do which were great for those of us who had never been to Galveston. Our only negative was the dishes and tray tables were dirty and sticky. Overall, I’d stay here every time.

The house is gorgeous and it has the most amazing views. Sunrise from the master bedroom windows was the highlight of each morning. The owners were helpful and very responsive - we had one or two small issues at checkin that they handled immediately. We loved the closet of board games! The area is quiet and there is only one grocery store but it had everything we needed. We didn’t go to any local restaurants. A few things to consider: the listing says 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms. This is true but one bedroom and bathroom is in an apartment downstairs so it wouldn’t be good for kids. It is a longer walk than it appears to the beach. It was fine for me and the kids but would’ve been way too far for someone with mobility challenges. The kitchen wasn’t as stocked as I had hoped (no real glass wine glasses, only plastic, not a lot of silverware, short supply of spatulas etc). Finally, there were no amenities for the beach, no buckets or shovels, no beach towels, so pack your own.

The house was extremely beautiful. Great location. Clean & felt like a well deserved vacation.

Place was beautiful. View is amazing and the spa was great. Has everything you need with extra. Very well stocked.

We were there 5 years ago for my 65th birthday at that time there was a lot of beach in front of the house so you walk down the beach. This year there was no beach the water had taken the beach away. All and all we had great time. Great beach house. Need more bandaids in first aid kit. Brother in law slipped on the rocks try to feel the water. Check out time really sucked 10 am it should be noon for what we paid. Check in was 4 o’clock a little late
