Loved this beach house! The layout is great and the rooms are big. There's a view to the beach from both the front and back balconies, and it's only a 2-minute walk to the beach. Check in was easy and the host was great! I would definitely recommend this house!

Perfect Beach trip / Perefct cabin

Our beach trip for Spring Break 2025 was nothing but absolutely spectacular. From the perfect location of the cabin, easy beach access, incredible cleanliness, tons of extras for the family to enjoy ( games etc.) and the very attentive and sweetest host. We will definitely be returning.

Thanks Chris and Maria for sharing your lovely home with us! We appreciated how beautifully decorated and stocked your home was, making our stay just wonderful. It was great being close to the beach to enjoy the views, the waves, and the Memorial Day fireworks that we watched from your front and back decks! We would love to come again!

Last Weekend of Summer Getaway

Took Family and the dog for a very enjoyable 4 nights at the beach. The house is located in a perfect area of the beach and close to town (you’ll be at The Big Store at least once a day apparently). The house is beautifully appointed and very comfortable and cozy. Maria was always immediately responsive to my questions and was an excellent host. We enjoyed the house and would definitely do it again!

Absolutely Stunning!!!

The home is beautiful! We had everything we needed to call it home for a few nights. The host (Maria) is extremely helpful with the reservation process and responded quickly to questions. The beach is literally only a short walk! I am already planning our next trip and will definitely be returning as soon as possible! Sunchaser is at the top of my favorites list!!!

Wonderful home

I have stayed in many homes, both in Crystal Beach and Galveston and this was absolutely one of my top for being accurately reflected in pictures and for the cleanliness. Everything was very smooth very wonderful. I was there at first with a couple of friends and then my husband and I stayed and, it was just lovely. It was so easy contacting the host when I had an Internet problem and was quickly able to fix it. I will definitely be trying to rent this house again. Lovely cheerful home! There was not one thing that wasn’t good about it.!
