About this house rental
Welcome to Casa de Mar, home to the best views Galveston Island has to offer! This family-friendly home is in the desirable location of the Pirates Beach subdivision, only steps away from the beach.
Have good old-fashioned family fun with the complimentary board games and puzzles in the southwest-chic living room by the ornamental fireplace, or in the dining area underneath a beautiful, shell-covered chandelier. The southwestern aesthetic is carried through the open kitchen by the talavera-style backsplash.
The views from the two decks as you feel the ocean breeze on your face are truly unmatched! Enjoy a family meal on the partially covered lower deck as you watch and listen to the waves crashing against the shore.
Please note that this home is NOT pet friendly.
The ground level has an outdoor shower and a charcoal grill available for use once the sandy delight of a beach day has come to a close.
The main level has an open dining area and kitchen with a bar for additional seating. There is access to the wrap-around deck right off of the living room with gorgeous beach views. Down the hall is the master bedroom with a queen bed, a TV with cable and a DVD player, deck access, and a luxurious adjoining master bathroom. The master bathroom features a dual-headed shower and art deco style windows that create a captivating rainbow effect on the walls. Also found on the main level is the laundry room with updated washer and dryer, as well as a charming half bath.
The second floor contains three bedrooms and an impeccable shared bathroom for the rest of the family. The first bedroom has two twin beds and a TV with a DVD player. The second bedroom has two sets of twin bunkbeds, a large TV, and access to the upper balcony for more stunning views. The third bedroom contains a queen size bed and also has access to the upper balcony for listening to those ocean waves.

Extended weekend stay with family, Friday-Tuesday, was made extra special by this lovely property. Great views and very comfortable house, stocked thoughtfully for guests! Had a wonderful stay; highly recommend!
10.0 / 10.0
Location is fantastic. In a beautiful neighborhood, literal steps to the beach. Very clean, etc. Everything in working order. We had booked five nights, but unfortunately, a tropical storm came in and we were only able to stay two nights. It was unfortunate because we could not get our money back. They only issue refunds if the island is under mandatory evacuation, which it was not. This area is lower lying so it’s at an increased risk for flooding and we did not feel safe staying and getting stuck. You could not go outside without sand blasting you in the face. It was unsafe to be outdoors so we felt we had no other choice to leave. Other than that, I was very happy with the property itself and the communication with the property managers. That does make a big difference with vacation rentals!

We enjoyed a wonderful Memorial Day weekend stay at this house! Just the right size for 2 families. House is nicely appointed and well taken care of. Just the right distance to the beach - not even a minute walk. Great views from every room in the house. Good communication with hosts as well. Thank you!

We've done a few Galveston rentals, including a couple in the Pirates Beach neighborhood. This was, by far, our best - to the point where we will probably lean towards just re-booking this home next time. Great kitchen amenities, great views of the ocean from many of the rooms, clean - just NOTHING to complain about.
There was an issue on the first night where the 2nd floor a/c wasn't working. I called Gary Greene agency and someone picked up immediately. They had someone out there within about an hour. It couldn't be fixed that night, so they gave us several options for other homes where we could stay. We chose to stay there (it wasn't that hot this time of year). it took several visits to get the a/c working the next day - but the whole time, GG Agency was communicative, ready to offer up whatever would mitigate the problem - they were AWESOME. And, in the end, they gave me a bit of money off (I didn't even need to ask). They come HIGHLY recommended.

Just a little south of main Galveston but perfect for being able to step outside and be on the beach. This house doesn’t have an outdoor shower, If they do it is locked up. The hose was a little finicky also. It would be nice for the price to have some basic beach items included (chairs, umbrella, etc). It would also be nice to have some closet space in the master bedroom, but that is also locked up. Overall the location and cleanliness of house is wonderful and we would stay again. Rental company who manages is also very easy to contact. We had a really great stay!

We were very impressed with the property. It was just like the pictures on feature VRBO. The house was very lovely; it was all that we expected and more. We enjoyed our stay so much, that we have decided it will be our go to vacation home for Galveston, Texas. Hearing the sound of the ocean at night and watching the sunset was breathe taking.

The location was perfect with the ability to just walk right to the beach. The house was the perfect size for a family of seven and it looked just like the pictures. The whole vibe of the house was peaceful and relaxing. Would definitely choose this same house again!
10.0 / 10.0
The overall place was very clean, but there were fruit flies throughout the house. They were pesky and got in our food at a few mealtimes, which was kind of a downer. Likely the result of the last tenant being unclean, by the time we left they were almost gone. The house is an awesome proximity to the beach and the view is fantastic. The place did have a high chair, which I didn’t notice in the description but was quite handy. The only real drawback for families with littles is the stairs from the ground to the living room area. There is no gate and it would be super easy to take a tumble. We would 100% stay here again but unless a gate is added in (it’s too wide to bring a standard baby gate from home) it will be at least a few years until we stay again. Highly recommend for families with no children or older children!

Spring beach getaway
The property was clean, beds were comfortable, great views and location. The owners should provide beach chairs to complete the experience.

5 Star
We checked in on Friday and the house was spotless. The house itself was beautiful and so close to the beach that we didn't have to worry about our big kids walking to the beach. The kitchen had everything we needed except for a griddle to make pancakes, but we made it work.
Thank y'all for making our long weekend so enjoyable, we'll be back.

The house beautifully set up, with all of the cooking amenities we needed. Such close proximity to the beach made it great for our family with young kids to go back and forth to the house if needed!

Perfect for our annual group get away
We are a group of 6 women in our 70's who get away, mostly to Galveston, every year. We have stayed at many places and this house was at the top of our favorites. As advertised, the views from every room are stunning, there are multiple decks, and because of the way the house is situated, we could always find a comfortable deck to be with shade and shelter from the wind. The house is beautifully decorated and there are ample dishes, cookware, utensils, and serving dishes for a crowd. It was not too much of a problem for us as we are all fairly active for our age, but any one with problems climbing stairs should be aware that all the bedrooms except for the master are on the third floor, which means 4 flights up, and there is only one bathroom for the 4 bedrooms on that floor. We did manage this, and for us all the advantages outweighed this one inconvenience, and we hope to rent Casa del Mar again next year.

Perfect space/Great location
This is our second visit to Casa De Mar. We love the house. It has everything we need, plenty of space and you can't beat the location. We are seconds away from the beach. I am able to head up from the beach to prepare meals and see the kids playing on the beach from the house. We definitely will be back.

Lovely long weekend
This house was perfect for a girls getaway. It has a very nicely decorated & nice size living room, well appointed kitchen & gorgeous views. Our rooms were nice & bathrooms were well updated. It’s just steps to the beach as well, which was an added bonus. I’ll be coming back!!

A great framily getaway
This house was perfect for a short vacation with friends. So close to the beach, with an amazing view. The kids loved the bunk room, and they spent hours building puzzles. We will definitely be back.

Casa De Mar
We travel alot and VRBO 90% of the time and this was in the top 5 vacation rentals we have stayed in. Clean, accessible, and very quiet. easy access to the beach was welcomed by my elderly parents. Most of the rentals do have a small collection of simple board games for kids and adults, scrabble, monopoly, trivia. etc. This home did not, adding this simple feature would be an easy addition to a great rental.

Great house and location
This property is perfect. The location is far enough down that the beach wasn't crowded, it's bright and has plenty of space. My only recommendation is be sure to bring any spices you might want to use for cooking. I've rented houses before that offered the basics and this one did not. We brought our own food but I didn't realize I would need to bring literally everything to cook. The kitchen is well stocked with cooking utensils, pots, pans, etc. But that is a small complaint for what was otherwise a beautiful home.

We will definitely be returning to this property yearly, if not multiple times a year! The location is amazing! So peaceful and so so close to the beach!
