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 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 charcoal 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.

Wonderful & Relaxing Girl’s Trip

Casa Azul was a perfect spot for a relaxing girl’s vacation. Having 4 bedrooms AND 4 bathrooms was a big plus, accommodating 6 of us very comfortably. Comfy beds and pillows too. The home is so bright and airy and decorated so cute. We all loved it! The patios were a fun spot to enjoy our coffee and have some nice chats. Communication with the owner was excellent! Will definitely return!

Amazing place, great for families!

Casa Azul was the perfect place for my extended family to spend a few days at the beach. The property was amazing and every little detail was thought out. They had beach chairs, toys for the kids, and even a wagon to haul everything down. The walk to the beach was extremely easy since the property is right next to the ADA accessible beach ramp. This made pushing the wagons and stroller tremendously easier! Schana is a delightful host. Super responsive to all my questions and very helpful with recommendations for food and things to do. Pointe West is a great little community with some amazing amenities. We will definitely be staying at Casa Azul again in the future!

Exceptionally well stocked: kitchen (glassware, plates, pots/pans, etc.), beach supplies (chairs, boogie boards, beach cart, etc.), charcoal grill, etc. Furnishings clean and comfortable. Easy access to beach - boardwalk to beach maybe 50-60 yards from cottage. Owner was best we have worked with - went above and beyond to return personal items left behind. Would definitely rent again.

We had a wonderful time at Casa Azulejo! We enjoyed the 4th July golf cart parade , the beach and pools. Schana was the most responsive and helpful owner we have ever had for rental homes (>10). We suggest renting a golf cart since the pools and beach are not within walking distance.

Excellent family getaway

Casa Azul was roomie, clean, and close to the beach. The beach closet was filled with things anyone would need for the beach. We especially liked The comfort of all three porches. There was room for everyone to be private if they needed to be and yet the gathering spaces were great. We would certainly return here many times over.

Annual Family Beach Trip 2023

Our family loved the house and hope to stay again. We loved how it was so well stocked and all of the toys and beach accessories. We definitely did not need to bring all the things we did. The owners were so accommodating and helpful. It was so far the best beach trip ever and we have been doing this for over 10 years.

Great beach house.

We stayed at Casa Azul last year and liked it so much we returned this year. And this year it was even better! The house is very comfortable, within easy walking distance to the beach (for both small children and seniors), has nice views from the balconies and numerous amenities not included in other properties. The closet full of beach items (canopy, chairs, wagons, beach toys, inner tubes, boogie boards, kids' life jackets, etc.) is a real bonus! The owner is terrific to deal with, easy to reach and very responsive, always striving for an outstanding rental experience for her guests. Our family had a wonderful beach vacation staying at Casa Azul!

About the host

Hosted by Schana Canto

Host profile image
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.
