The place is nice enough and gets the job done for a big group. The house is clean and in a convenient location for walking to a fishing beach, or driving to a swimmable one (I recommend beach access 4 as the most driveable). The host was responsive and informative about the area.
The main downside is that one of the bedrooms isn't connected internally to the rest of the house. The game room and loft bedroom is actually a converted garage. You have to leave the house, go down to ground level, and reenter to get in there. This was an issue for us as it complicated kid bedtimes and where we could leave them. It was also a pain to deal with in the rain since the stairs aren't covered.
One of the game cabinets didn't work and we had some TV issues, but we let them know and they said they'll look into it.
In the property statistics, it lists 5 bedrooms, but it's really 4. The fifth is a common room with some futons. Feels like a stretch to call it a bedroom. I don't overly knock them on this because the written description calls it out as a "secondary living area". My main knock for it is that the futons are super hard. So if you plan to take advantage of it, bring air mattresses.
The property has tons of standing water, and the mosquitos were quite terrible, but I think this is the case everywhere in the area, so not much they could do about it. Just be sure to bring bug spray and itch cream.

The house itself is so beautiful and it was very spacious, our group fit perfectly. But When we arrived to the home the floors were dirty, dog hairs everywhere. The bedsheets in every bed were dirty, we couldn’t even lay in the until we washed them. The cleaning person did come that night but she was not informed of how many beds needed changing so she didn’t not bring enough and she had to come back the next day to clean the floors, although we sweep a little the first night there was so many dog hair still.

The home was very spacious with enough parking. Beach is literally across the street, and property has everything you need to enjoy a night in. I would stay again.

Nice, clean house. I reached out to the property owner on our second day and got a reply within minutes. Communication was great, the house was beautiful, the mosquitos were AWFUL. But we were warned of that ahead of time. (Mosquitoes were bad all the way from surf side, Galveston island, and Bolivar peninsula, no fault of the owners). All in all, my family and I (11 of us) truly enjoyed our stay.

The Stay Beach Box property was a well stocked beautiful rental for our Thanksgiving gathering. The home was very clean and well maintained. The few maintenance concerns were promptly handled by the property management team. The owner extended our stay due to a unforseen maintenance concern. My family was able to moved to another beautiful waterfront property. The owner extended our trip to assure our holiday vacation ended successfully. Thank you!

Property was nice. The rooms were spacious. The game room was very enjoyable for the kids but It’s Downstairs, separate from the rest of the house, like a remodeled garage, it gave the kids (all over 15 YO) a little privacy but it doesn’t connect with the rest of the house; it has a loft with 2 double beds and a whole bathroom. When we arrived we were stressed about not finding the total bed count that was on the property description, so we started looking until we found out the closed space downstairs was it.
The Grill and fire pit area was also nice to have.
When we arrived we didn’t have linens for the sofa beds (futons) and enough towels for the whole group but the management took care of it really as soon after I texted them through the app, so no problem at all with that.
Please report any findings so the next guests can have a more enjoyable stay…
We had a great time!

The house was nice only a couple of issues. Loved the waffle maker that was a hit with everyone. Suggestions would be new pans and new grill grate some grates were missing and another grate from another grill was being used to fill gaps and it kept slipping when cooking.

We enjoyed this property that had plenty of sleeping space for grown men even the bunks beds were accommodating, Took us old timers a while to find the garage bonus room but enjoyed the extra space and not having to climb those stairs while enjoying the outside area (:-) We will return !!

Family fun
Had a great time with large family gathering at Pieces of Eight. Close proximity to nice beaches. Owners do a great job of providing all the essentials including plenty of towels, toilet paper and a few other items as well as a well stocked kitchen. Only thing to notes is the game room is not connected to the tree at of the house so there’s only 2 bathrooms in the main living area. Teenagers loved this feature though.

Family trip to the beach for my older grandkis
This property was great. It was equipped with everything we needed. The only problem I had was trying to lock the deadbolt but other then that excellent. I would rate this a 10.
