Affectionately named The Pearl, this gorgeous raised home boasts unforgettable Gulf views. Beautifully designed with coastal-chic furniture and decor, this two-level beach home features ample outdoor entertaining space including a wraparound deck, top-floor balcony, and a patio. With a prime locale in the upscale Spanish Grant neighborhood close to town, you’ll enjoy a private beachfront location just steps from the surf and sand. Drive 3 miles to Galveston Island State Park and explore 2,000 acres of hiking trails and swimming areas. Spend a day at Moody Gardens and discover a 3D theatre, high ropes course, rainforest, and aquarium. Or take on the adrenaline-inducing slides at Schlitterbahn Water Park -- both are less than 7 miles away. Drive 3.5 miles to Seawall Blvd or explore Galveston’s historic Pleasure Pier.

Relax on a comfy sofa and collection of armchairs and watch shows on a 40-inch TV equipped with Netflix and AT&T U-verse. Whip up delectable dishes paired with a beautiful ocean view in the fully stocked kitchen, outfitted with quality stainless steel appliances and classic white subway tile backsplash. Sip morning coffee at the corner breakfast nook or at the bar. When it’s time to eat, enjoy home-cooked meals at the dining table. Simmer down in the private hot tub and soothe away those worries.

Gulf-front outdoor entertaining space is abundant; the second-level wraparound deck is furnished with five high-top Adirondack chairs, two chaise loungers, and a four-seat patio table, while the master balcony offers seating for two. Fire up the grill and dine alfresco at two patio tables. An outdoor shower is handy for rinsing off after the beach.

House needs a repair man to come in and fix a lot of little things. Hot tub and sink to mention the two most important to us. We also had a small mouse problem. Other than that stuff we loved the house and the location!!!!!!

Major safety issue concern for the stairs under the deck. I was walking down with tennis shoes on and holding the railing and slipped down 6-7 steps very painfully. The moisture from the ocean makes those wooden stairs very slippery. There is no caution sign next to stairs and there should be! Also there is no way to grip your feet in the stairs. This could be easily fixed with signage and step grip stickers added to each of the steps of the stairs. These are extremely dangerous and steep. I would not recommend usage of this stairwell until these updates have been put in place. This is a major safety concern and I would not feel comfortable with my family or children using these stairs. I have massive bruising on my right arm, right leg/buttocks and back from falling on these stairs 4/17/24. The stay was pleasant other than this incident.

It was the perfect Spring Break getaway. Being footsteps to the the beach was amazing and the views incredible with perfect sunrises every morning. The master bedroom was a nice nook above just for me and my wife and my 3 adult kids loved their own rooms. There was plenty of space to spread out and relax on the deck with the great views and sounds of the waves crashing. The house itself was very clean and had obviously been updated/addressed since the negative reviews of the past. Positives: The view and location. Very little public on the beach so plenty of room to spread out on the sand and not feel cramped. The incredible hot tub (did have to figure out why it had a FLO error but reset it and it seemed to work). The updated décor and updated bathrooms. The HVAC system kept the house very comfy with no humidity in the house. The beds were very comfy. The kitchen was well supplied. Plenty of towels (beach and shower) were supplied along with little dove bar soaps. Lots of beach toys and chairs were available. An exterior HOT shower is available to wash off the sand or hot tub chlorine. Negatives: These are only suggestions and in no way would prevent me from returning in the future. Add blinds or curtains on the master bedroom French exterior doors as well as on the living room French doors. Add blinds where a few were missing on windows. Add some instructions on the exterior downstairs lighting. Add lights on the long exterior stairs (only the very bottom worked). There was no exterior lighting outside the exterior French doors (maybe just needed a new bulb). The TVs were a little weird to try to figure out. Some additional kitchen items would be oven mitts, larger skillet, griddle, maybe a drying rack. The fridge water and ice machine did not work. Bottom line we were very happy and would absolutely stay again. You can’t beat the location…..steps to the sand, minutes from Galveston’s main attractions, but hidden from the main public….just PERFECT.

The location of this property cannot be beat! You are steps from the beach. I could comfortably see my kids on the beach from the house. The sunrises were outstanding. Also, the size of the place was great which was great for our 12 people. The living / kitchen was open and very spacious. You can tell this is a rental and not an air bnb as it doesn’t have the love a personal home has. The TP holders in all bathrooms were broke. Handles were broken off of dressers. A lot of junk left around, rotted deck, etc. When we arrived, one if the beds were broken, within an hour it was fixed but the frame was still too small for the bed.

The location was fabulous, the beach out front is quiet, and it is lovely to sit on the deck and listen to the waves.

Too much deferred maintenance, and unusable amenities like hot tub, washing machine, and dishwasher. Some items were unsafe, including hazardous black mold in the washing machine — not fixed during our stay even though promptly reported with pictures. We requested a partial refund for our inconvenience. Too bad — this could be a great property with maintenance attention.
