About this property

Perched on the Beach - Beach Front Home

Cozy 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom house at the beach with water views in all rooms situated on a remote corner of the Texas beach.

Sitting on the edge of the island, this home and its outstanding location offers thousands of feet of accessible beach. The beach surrounding the house gets little traffic, which adds to the exclusive and truly relaxing atmosphere. Play in the sun all day, and then cozy up on the extended deck for an amazing sunset view.

Living Room:
The living room has an ocean-facing side with floor to ceiling windows, taking advantage of every inch of the magnificent surf view. Looking the other way in this room, more modest but carefully located windows offer a view out over the waters of San Luis Pass. A large smart flat screen smart television where you will need to bring your own login information to access your favorite streaming services.

Kitchen:
The kitchen comes fully equipped with cookware, dishes, utensils, coffee-maker, blender, toaster, and appliances. The open floor plan provides the same ocean view as the living room out over the kitchen island. Enjoy a nice meal in the nook next to the kitchen.

Bedrooms (all bedrooms come with flat screen smart televisions):
The floor-to-ceiling windows from the living room continue to the foot of the queen-sized bed in the corner bedroom. This room offers a breathtaking view of the ocean skyline, as well as a beautiful view straight down the native beach.
The middle bedroom has floor-to-ceiling windows left of the queen-size bed to create a sweeping view down the beach. Resist the urge to close the drapes at night and be rewarded by waking up to a fantastic view from your pillow. A fold-away desk is located along the wall, just in case the laptop-in-bed approach isn't your style.

The bunkroom has bed-space for 4 and a wall full of games, puzzles, and children's books. A comfy full-size bed still benefits from a nice view down the beach and allows this room to serve as a third master if needed.

Porches
The porch areas offer a shaded dining area with a view out over San Luis Pass, a sunny (at least during the middle of the day) area with Adirondack chairs with views of the beach, and a shaded/sunny lounge area with views of both.

Others:
There is a dining nook with a built-in bench seating, a utility closet with a washer and dryer, and two full bathrooms. One is a standard sized bathroom with a tub and the other is a small bathroom with a shower. Below the house is a shower to rinse off sand, a charcoal grill, and a picnic table. There is one ring camera on the exterior of the house that views the stairs leading to the front deck of the property.

I stayed here with my family for my 53rd birthday trip. It was exactly what I wanted... a cozy place with amazing views. I could not have asked for a better place to celebrate my birthday. From Coffee on the deck and watching the sunrise to being lulled to sleep at night by the waves crashing on the rocks..... it was perfection. I loved every minute of our stay.
The view to wake up to!!!!

Better than Expected!

I stay in the Galveston area every summer. This was the first time I walked into a house and didn’t need to do any touchup cleaning. Everything that I needed was there and more. The location was a little questionable but after staying a few days, I will come back again and again! The views were amazing. The sunrises spectacular. It really was and is a 5 Star place.

Wonderful Ocean View

My wife and I love the little blue house on the gulf when we visit the Galveston area. Great place to get away from everyday life and just do nothing but become a beach bum for a few days.

Perfect beach location!!!

The house accommodated 7 of us comfortably. The location is fantastic! Being so close to the water, we were able to enjoy the sounds of the oceans all day/night long on the deck…. and dolphin sightings every day! It was a great week!

Wonderfully charming water view home

Lovely home with an exceptional ocean view location. The home was nicely furnished. The outside deck and two of the bedrooms provided great views of the ocean. One early morning we spotted dolphins swimming. Had all the amenities we needed for our stay. We hope to return in the future.

Best kept secret

We had a remarkable stay at Perched on the Beach. We experienced January weather extremes that allowed us wonderful beach walks to gather shells and a spectacular view of high tides with awesome waves from the incredible windows facing the Gulf. The house is exceptionally well-equipped, clean and comfortable. Eric, our property manager was the most responsive manager we have ever encountered in 10 years of renting via VRBO.

Great time perched on the beach!

Had a great time in this very nice, clean and modern waterfront home, watching the waves and family on the beach! Very well stocked with kitchen items and daily necessities! Comfortable beds and nice bedding! Good info and communication from owner with recommendations and things to watch for and how to prepare the trip. Glad we had stocked up on food and water, a bit far to the store and owner had stated that. Thanks we will definitely be back!

Wonderfully relaxing

Wonderful place to unwind. House was well stocked with everything a family/guests might need. Convenient access for playing on the beach and enjoyed closing out the evening on the large deck—which our lab also really enjoyed! Truly enjoyed the sound of the waves while dozing off at night. Excellent communication from the owner. Thanks again!

Spectacular Beach View

Absolutely beautiful views of the beach and gulf. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked for all the cooking we did. Love that there was a Weber grill to cook our fish on! All of the directions for our arrival and equipment in the house were spot on. Communication with Eric was very easy and he went above and beyond when it was discovered a guest left some items behind. The only challenge was the size of the bathrooms, but it was a small price to pay for such a magnificent stay.

Best Family Vacation Ever!!!

OMG!!! It was better in person than what is shown on the website. Rental had everything needed. We only had to bring food & clothes. Quiet, early morning walks on the beach & we were the only ones, dolphins playing every morning & evening. You can view the ocean while showering too. Very relaxing with an overlarge porch for us to relax after our day trips. We would give 10 stars!!!

The kitchen is well stocked with dishes and utensils. A plus with a family! Pantry has staples. The biggest plus is cleanliness! I walked the beach every morning with our dog.
