Casa Azul - Family-Friendly Beach Escape in Pointe West – Perfect Summer Getaway
Escape to Casa Azul: Your Coastal Retreat Awaits!**
Leave your worries behind and step into paradise at Casa Azul, our charming 4-bedroom, 4-bath cottage just a short stroll from the pristine beach. Picture yourself swaying in one of our many hammocks, soaking in the breathtaking views of the bay and the Gulf—this is relaxation at its finest.
At Pointe West, you’ll discover unique amenities that set us apart from other Galveston properties, including the Beach Club Pool and the heated Sunset Pool, featuring a lazy river and hot tubs. Open year-round, these pools offer stunning vistas of the ocean and bay, ensuring that every swim is a memorable one. Explore the beautiful grounds via golf cart (available through 3rd party) and bike paths, making your stay truly enjoyable.
Our cottage is thoughtfully designed with everything you need to create delightful meals and entertain guests. The kitchen is stocked with spices and basic cooking essentials, while a Gas grill and picnic table on the ground floor make BBQs and outdoor dining a breeze. Relax on one of our two spacious balconies with a glass of wine in the evening or enjoy breakfast on the patio in the morning.
For family fun, we provide games and entertainment options, and you can unwind with four TVs throughout the house, complete with Fubo Live TV, Netflix, Amazon Prime, and HBO. We’re also happy to recommend local rentals for golf carts, kayaks, and bikes, as well as nearby restaurants.
Our ground-floor storage closet is a treasure trove for beachgoers, stocked with beach toys, chairs, kids’ bikes with helmets, life jackets, hammocks, a sand cart, and a beach tent. (condition based on past guests) We’re happy to accommodate special requests to ensure your stay is perfect. Additionally, we provide a pack-and-play and high chair for little ones, so you can travel light! You’ll find starter supplies waiting for you, including: - 2 rolls of paper towels - 2 rolls of toilet paper per bathroom - 3 towels per bedroom - Shampoo, conditioner, and bar soap - 6 beach towels and a beach bag for your seaside adventures
All you need to bring are your swimsuits, sunscreen, and clothes!

**House Information** Our beach storage closet is fully stocked with chairs, a beach tent, sand wagon, toys, floats, and child life jackets. Please rinse off toys and beach gear on your last day before returning them to the closet. We kindly ask that you leave the storage closet semi-organized for the next guests.
Rinse off in the outdoor shower when returning from the beach to help keep our furniture and floors sand-free.

Great place and location. Loved being close to the beach. Host was very friendly and easy to communicate with. They had everything including beach gear! Best thing was we got to bring our pets. Will look forward to staying there again
Excellent place to stay for our family vacation, the owners are so friendly, helpful and accommodating with local information as well. The set up for the house really worked for our family, the patio and downstairs views were cool and comfortable. The beds provided such restful sleep. We can't wait to stay again!
This property is great for multigeneration families traveling together. Plenty of room to make meals with the bbq and in the kitchen. The beach access was close and easy. The house comes with beach towels to use which were really handy to borrow. The beach club with the pool and hot tub was great for after beach swimming and hanging out. Next trip to Galveston, this place will be top on my list to book.
This location is perfect for families who want to stay a little more off the beaten path in Galveston. It was beautiful and relaxing! We had a great time.

Thank you so much for your review! We are thoroughly appreciative that you and your family and friends chose Casa Azul for your getaway! We look forward to your return!
Great property and was perfect for our needs. Communication was awesome and the unit had a lot of the small things (spices, hammocks, and plenty of beach gear) that don’t always show up. Great stay!

Just wish we had time to enjoy the amenities. Clean, plenty of space, nice and comfortable inside and out. The owner were great communicators and super accommodating. Awesome experience would definitely stay again!
We stayed at Casa Azul to celebrate my daughter’s 3rd birthday. The cottage was clean, nicely decorated and had EVERYTHING we needed other than food and swim suits! The host was very responsive and helpful with planning our stay.
Casa Azul is a beautiful property, very well maintained, nicely furnished and perfectly situated. The property manager communicated with us regularly and made our stay easy. We would highly recommend and will definitely return.

Loved staying at Casa Azul! Our group of 3 adults and 6 children (ages 5-15) fit comfortably in the house and enjoyed the short walk to the beach. Owner is extremely helpful and checks in to make sure everything is going well. Furniture and beds are comfortable and house was extremely clean. We would absolutely stay here again!

About the host
Hosted by Schana Canto
We are a busy couple with 4 kids and live in Houston and both work. We love to get out of town and enjoy going to places to relax and enjoy the beach and swimming.
Why they chose this property
We would visit our friends who bought a place in Pointe West and saw that a house was coming on the Market. When we walked in we immediately decided to buy the property. We loved that it had 4 Bedrooms and 4 Bathrooms and had a very coastal design that was nice and bright. We also loved that we have second floor living. It felt like a home away from home without any of the worries you have or things you feel like you need to do when you are actually home. We also love that we do not have too much around us. We enjoy staying at Pointe West when our property is not rented, and have made it a priority to have everything you need or want when renting the property to have a comfortable stay. We enjoy sitting on the patio at night listening to music, playing games, and enjoy listening to the fountains right off of our balcony.
What makes this property unique
We have 4 Bedrooms, and we have Peek a Boo Gulf Views. We also have the availability to see the bay as well, and boast beautiful Sunsets. We have Hammocks to enjoy on all floors of our home. Also our Community has a resort like feel that you only get when you leave home.
