About this property

Beachfront, Pet Friendly house with unobstructed views and Gulf of Mexico

FRESHLY RENOVATED!!! Sea Haven is a beach lover's dream! This cozy beachfront property in Sunny Beach offers limitless, spectacular views of the Gulf of Mexico. Situated just steps away from the beach it is a fan favorite for all ages. Perfect for multiple families or couples traveling together. This vacation rental easily accommodates 10 - 12 people with its open floor plan, covered deck, and cleared path to the beach!

Step inside and the crisp color palette with coastal accents creates a refreshing oasis. Gather around the living area and admire the beachfront views through the windows. Watch the shorebirds darting in and out of the surf from the dining table. Cooking together in the well-planned kitchen is easy with plentiful counter space. Pots, pans, and utensils are all included. Bond over breakfast in the morning or while enjoying fresh Gulf seafood dinners at night!

The two king bedrooms feature spectacular Gulf views, so wake up and fall asleep to the sounds of the waves. The two double-bed rooms are tucked in the back, so the kids and teens can stay up late or sleep in while the adults enjoy their morning coffee. Multiple TVs also make it easy to entertain different ages and interests.

Sea Haven is a short drive away from all of Galveston's best attractions, bars, and restaurants. Moody Gardens and Galveston Schlitterbahn are 10 minutes away. The Galveston Pleasure Pier is15 minutes away and the Strand is 20 minutes away. If you are feeling to venture a little further out the Kemah boardwalk is only a 40-minute drive away but well worth the trip.

Speaking of the beach - you’ll love watching the waves glide in from the comfort of your deck. A variety of outdoor furniture makes it easy for everyone to lounge around on island time. With a cleared path just off the backyard, it’s easy to hit the sand any time of day!

We loved the view! Enjoying the ocean view was our favorite part of our trip. The house could have been cleaner. We found old food wrappers from the previous guest between the bed and wall. I also didn’t notice on the listing that the house doesn’t have an ice maker, but we just bought bags of ice so it worked out.

Amazing vacay!

This was a great family mini vacay. Who knew the beach was so beautiful in December!? This property was the best. Beautiful location with the great views. The house had everything we needed and more. Space was so nice for our grown children and for our grandsons. Out of the crowd yet close to all Galveston has to offer. Could not have enjoyed it more.

The house was perfect for our weekend away with friends. It was clean and the layout worked great for us. Access to the beach was very convenient. The mornings and evenings were so relaxing on the porch watching and hearing the ocean waves. Will book this house again!

It’s nice

Was not told a tv was not working in a bedroom which is a need for disabled boys the owners comment came across rude about other TV’s in the house ! a shade in the living room is missing a piece.it’s right at the beach access and people pull in and out.It is a nice house it does shake a lot but it is that kind of house in all fairness do to the weather it was understandable.It was clean they make sure everything you need is there and has a beautiful view on a L shape balcony it is away from town, all in all if I was to go back it would be a place to stay again.
Right on the beach , loved that.

House worked great for us!

The best things about this house are the direct beach access, the excellent A/C cooling and the convenient access back into Galveston. Our family had a great time and we were able to book both this house and the home immediately next door in order to have enough room for our large group.

Great time at the beach

Location was awesome, just steps away from the beach. Large balcony facing the beach. House was clean and the kitchen was well equipped. The family had a great time. Just a few minor issues: - One of the shower drains was very slow - Charcoal grill was full of mold - wifi was very slow

Family Fun

Perfect for staying with a toddler. Right on a pedestrian-only beach, comfortable but not too precious furnishings, no knick-knacks to worry about damaging, no indoor stairs or bunk beds. House warm and cozy on a cold night. Beautiful sunrise and sunset views. Perfect sunny days with temps in 60's.

Great beach stay

The location was perfect! We enjoyed being close to the beach. The beds were comfortable, and the property manager was quick to respond. Our only issue was that the walls and doors were so dirty -- streaks of stuff everywhere. Paper towels and any sort of cleaning product were not provided, which seemed odd to us, but might be typical of vrbos. Also, be aware that the key/lock is very finicky. All in all, we had a great time!

Great Location

The house is in an awesome location. A VERY short drive from Moody Gardens and all Galveston has to offer. The beds were excellent. No cars are allowed on the area in front of the house which was very important for us since we had young children staying. The only negatives were that the front door was difficult to lock at night. You have to hold the handle just right for it to lock. Small thing because once we figured it out it was not a problem. The downstairs shower was our only real complaint. It didn’t have handles for the water to turn it on. We made due but it was rather inconvenient. For what I paid I felt like that the shower should have knobs! I can see why owner would want to take them off in between rentals to keep strangers from using the shower due to the proximity to the beach but really is a small thing to put them back on for renters.

The best beach house we’ve rented

This house is first row on the beach for the beach lovers in the group. It’s also close to town to make the shoppers and sightseeing crowd happy. As for the baby in our group, it was very safe. Even the deck was gated. Once you go up the stairs and shut the gate, it is all one level. The bedrooms all had queen or king beds and TV’s in every room, plus the TV in the living room. The kitchen was as fully equipped with appliances like the keurig coffeemaker, and even a blender. It had any pans you could need. The cookware was in good shape as well. The dishes and glassware, including wine glasses were good quality and plentiful. The bathrooms had plenty of towels, and even toilet paper and shampoo and soap, at least enough to start and possibly to last the whole trip depending on how long you stayed. There were lots of chairs, both real Adirondack chairs that stay on the upper deck and the plastic kind that we carried over to the beach. I can’t think of one thing we lacked on this trips. There is plenty of space to park. The house is very easy to find, and Jason was a very proactive host. Thanks for sharing your beach home with us. It was our best family trip ever, as the location made everyone happy!! Hope to stay again Jackie
