About this house rental
Escape to the serenity of the beach, wind, and waves. With an unparalleled beachfront view, Tranquility Base is the ideal place to relax, get away, and enjoy all that the gulf coast has to offer. Construction was completed on this exceptional, 4 bedroom, 3 bathroom home in October of 2017.
Paying homage to the space history of nearby Houston, the beach house is named after the site on the Moon where humans first landed, the first words being, "Houston, Tranquility Base here. The Eagle has landed!" At Surfside Beach, you can find a place where the peaceful tranquility of this beach house is made possible by the earthly pleasures of the water, wind, and sand.
Just steps away from the beach over the adjacent walkway, sit with your feet in the water or explore miles of surf and sand. Relax on the spacious upper deck with both covered and open areas, and have an unencumbered view for miles down the coast. Head down to the large shaded deck under the house for games and grilling. After catching your breath from the incomparable experiences outside, head inside to the beautiful, clean, and commodious living and sleeping areas.
Our house is furnished and decorated with comfort, relaxation, and convenience in mind. The living accommodations include:
- Living room: three big windows looking out to the ocean, a large flat screen TV with Blu-ray player, one couch, one sleeper sofa, and two swivel/reclining chairs
- Dining area: large table that seats eight, bar stool seating for eight, a high chair, and small toddler table with chairs
- Master bedroom: one king Tempur-Pedic bed, large dresser, wardrobe cabinet, flat screen TV, private balcony, and private bathroom with a bathtub/shower
- 2nd bedroom: one king Restonic bed, two twin bunks, and a fold out twin lounger. Room also has flat screen TV, large closet, and roomy private bathroom with standing shower
- 3rd bedroom: one king Tempur-Pedic bed, dresser, closet, shared full bathroom, and private balcony
- 4th bedroom: two queen beds with two custom-built twin beds. Room also includes large closet, shared full bathroom, and private balcony
All bedrooms are spacious. A pack-n-play along with sheet is provided. The living room closet contains adult and children games and children's toys.
The kitchen is fully stocked and will meet all of your cooking/baking needs. Stainless steel appliances are all new, and the reverse osmosis system provides high-quality drinking water. A full-service laundry room is available for use.
The deck has four tall wooden chairs along with two rocking chairs and adirondack chairs. Feel free to spend countless hours here during the day and at night. On the lower deck you will find an Old Smokey grill to use as well as a picnic table.
Ample parking is available under the house and along the driveway, as the property extends all the way to Bluewater Hwy.
Surfside Beach is conveniently located about an hour drive from Houston, a 3-4 hour drive from San Antonio/Austin, and a 4-5 hour drive from the DFW Metroplex. Surfside provides a quiet, relaxing, seaside retreat with a wide array of family activities including surfing, fishing, crabbing, shelling, bird-watching, boating, sight-seeing, shopping, dining, and beach activities like kiting, jet skiing, and soaking up the sun. Nearby Lake Jackson and Galveston provide additional options for fun and entertainment. Moody Gardens, Galveston Island's Pleasure Pier, and Schlitterbahn are just a few of the nearby attractions that will make your stay in Surfside memorable.
We are happy to share with our guests the house we adore and know you'll come to as well. We ask that our guests are responsible and treat it with the same love and attention they would their own home.
Come and stay at Tranquility Base in Surfside and you'll find a vacation destination where lifelong memories are made!

Our stay at The Tranquility was nothing short of amazing! This beautiful home was the ideal retreat for our family, featuring four spacious and comfortable bedrooms that were perfect for our kids. The kitchen was a chef's dream, fully equipped with everything we needed to whip up delicious meals together. Best of all, the beach was just steps away, making it incredibly convenient for our family outings. If you're looking for the perfect getaway with your loved ones, look no further—this place truly has it all!

Everyone had an incredible trip! We appreciated the cleanliness, the kitchen and all the kitchen items, the rooms, large table for everyone to sit at and the space for everyone to come together. The location is perfect and we loved being able to just walk to the beach!

This beach rental was great! It was clean when we arrived and fully stocked with everything we needed. We had three families in the home and the home felt big and comfortable enough for everyone. We appreciated there were toys and board games for the kids. I loved the convenience of the walkway for the quick walk out to the beach. The host was also very responsive to my questions. It was nice and relaxing out on the balcony and plenty of seating. This place was exactly what I needed to celebrate my 40th birthday with my loved ones.. Thank you for hosting us!!

Location and size of property were great. The house is starting to show signs of general wear for its age. Stayed 4 nights and never left the property except to go to the beach which was a short walk over wood ramp from house to beach. The beach was not crowded except for Saturday. The house is pretty far from Surfside proper so I guess this was the reason there was so much seaweed. House is well stocked with just about anything you need for meal prep. Very limited supply of paper towels and toilet paper so you probably will want to bring extra.
Cons: extremely aggressive mosquito activity on Wednesday and Thursday. They sprayed neighborhood on Friday and that night and Saturday were mosquito free but by Sunday morning they were back.
Wednesday night shower revealed highly offensive sulfur smell to water. I contacted the owners and was told this was an ongoing issue and that the reverse osmosis filter system had been turned off. This lead to us going to the store and buying 10 gallons of water for drinking and cooking during our stay. They contact the city to flush the lines but nothing improved. I already had 3 boys (8,6 and 3) that refused to take further showers due to the odor and washed off with water hose the rest of the stay.
Also no ice maker in a new refrigerator.
We managed to have a good family vacation but it could have been great without all these unexpected events. Have stayed 3 summers in the Surfside area and never experienced anything like this.

This house is exactly as represented by the pictures. We’ve stayed at several houses at Surfside over the years and this is our favorite. Having the wonderful covered porch looking out at the beach and having the walkway to beach was a huge win. The house has every cooking utensil you could need and so well organized that you can find everything. The furniture in the den area was extremely comfortable. The host was very attentive.

5.0 / 5.0
The view of the ocean was amazing!! Walking to the beach was Soo easy with the bridge even with multiple kids and infants, it was close enough we didn't mind making multiple trips to get extra gear.
The house itself was so clean and so nice. Very kid friendly. Had a closet of toys for kids all ages books games movies. There were step stools in the bathroom for kids to reach.
Only problem is the water from the shower And sinks smell horrible. The owners are awesome and installed a reverse osmosis filter so the drinking water was fine. I'm sure any property in the area would have the same smelling water.
Overall we would definitely want to book another stay here!

This was an amazing house! Everything was just as described. We have stayed in so many Surfside houses over the years and this was our favorite! We will definitely come back. Location was great, bedroom set up was perfect & the bunks in each room are set up great for big groups. The owner was super responsive and we couldn’t think of a single complaint!

We loved sitting on the porch and walking the beach. The house was well layed out for a large group. The only downside was the mosquitos which were horrible. We are used to mosquitos and they were the worst experience we have ever had with them.

We couldn't have asked for anything better. Perfect location, perfect home and very short walk to the beach. The owner answered any questions within minutes. Book this properly, you won't be disappointed.

We took our 4 children ranging from 0 - 10 and enjoyed Tranquility Base as our base for a 4 day stint to round out summer.
The property is ideally located close to amenities but away from the main drag / congestion. The beach is 10 seconds away and the views from the property are great.
The bunk beds were popular with our kids and the toys/games supplied came in very handy.
Communication was great and this represents great value versus other properties we’ve seen in the area.

The property is in the perfect location. Not too close to the main beach access right at the end of the bridge. That area gets very congested and crowded. This house is further down. The beach is quieter and cleaner. The house was adorable & perfectly set up. My husband and I and my three teenage boys had the rooms at the end that shared a bathroom and my brother and his wife and my sister and her husband had their own bedrooms with their own bathrooms. It worked out perfectly. The kitchen was a great size. It was well stocked with pantry staples, and all the cookware, appliances, dishes, cutlery you could need. No need to drag that stuff with you on this vacation. The beds were all very comfortable. There’s plenty of comfortable seating in the living room to gather and watch movies. The dining table was large, and they had extra seating at the island. There were tons of boardgames. But mainly, we spent our time down at the beach, which is easily accessible from the crossover right next to the house. Or we spent our time on the deck watching the waves and the beach goers. The deck is nicely furnished with big wooden deck chairs and table tops to set your stuff on. The area under the house was perfect for grilling and staying out of the sun. We lucked out and had super clear water for the entire trip. There were only 2 downfalls; 1 is there was a lot of tar washing in and it was messy. 2 the water filtration was down on the island and the water smelled putrid. We’ll be back!

I have rented this property 4 times and it’s the perfect layout for our family. Three king bedrooms is always a plus for our tall family members, the front deck is a few feet closer to the beach so you can get a full view up and down the beach without neighboring decks in the way, we love having hot & cold water for the kids in the outdoor shower below, the tall ceilings feel spacious, and the rooms are all separated by a bathroom or closet so you can’t really hear the other families in the other rooms. Great property with its own ramp over the dune to the beach! We will be back next year.

Our family of 10 had a great time at this house. Since it’s right on the beach it was so easy to go back and forth. They had plenty of beach gear for us to use. From teens to toddler—all of the kids had something. We took a vote and decided to come back again!

This was a great place to stay. For the past 7 years my cousins, sisters and Aunts have had a yearly trip in October to some place is the US. This year was Surfside. We loved the house and location. Everything was spotless and if we had a problem there was quick communication with the owner.

This rental came with everything you could need to make your stay comfortable. The owners thought through every random thing you’ll forget and made sure to have it on site so you aren’t making 13 trips to the store! The beds were extremely comfortable and in excellent condition. The beach access bridge is just feet away and we enjoyed being able to watch the ocean from the patio. I can’t rave enough about this home!!

We loved our stay here and the house was a delightful reunion spot for our sibling reunion. The owners were so responsive and helpful! We enjoyed the deck and the beach and the house, which was so well equipped. Our elder siblings had a hard time with the stairs so they didn't do much beach walking, but they were content. We would highly recommend this lovely home.

Our group of family/friends have rented several houses over the years for our annual ladies retreat. This property is by far our favorite. It’s located on a quiet section of the beach with a very convenient & easy walkover bridge. The house was gorgeous, extremely clean & very well stocked with more than just the basics. Beautiful relaxing views, comfortable beds & spacious bedrooms. Really appreciate the extra space on the property for parking all of the vehicles. We all look forward to staying here again.

From the moment we got out of the truck we could hear the waves. Then once you walk up the stairs the view is breathtaking. Walking in the house, everything was clean and cool. We had plenty of room for our group of 8 adults and 4 kids. The kitchen was well equipped and having a high chair, playpen and monitors was a plus. AMAZING LOCATION
