Perfect Weekend Stay

The house exceeded all of our needs for 5 couples. The place was extremely clean, and felt like home for a weekend. The BBQ was the best pit I’ve had at a VRBO, it was a large pit with a smoker on one end which made grilling steaks and hamburgers easy for 10 people. It rained a majority of our stay, and if I had one small complaint, it would be lack of cover getting from downstairs to upstairs in the rain. But I would definitely stay here again in the future.

Great vacation home!!

We absolutely loved the location and the private beach that comes with this home. It was spacious enough for two families to share and the walk to the beach was short. We would definitely stay here again.

Clean but with safety concerns

Clean. Only 4 partial rolls of toilet paper for a place that sleeps 17. When we called for a few rolls of toilet paper, we were told they only provide starter paper although there were combination lock cabinets with paper. Very poor customer service. We were texted a few hours later after we had to make the trip for more. Something needs to be done with the stairs. The handrail does not go all the way to the bottom of the staircase and the last step blends with the flooring below. We had 2 elderly people fall on the last steps and one is currently in the hospital with a fractured hip. Also, we took the garbage out to find that 3 of the 4 cans were already full including building materialsr they

Spacious and Nice

We had a quick weekend stay. The house is truly awesome. The elevator is a complete life savor with my elderly parents. I wish we could of spent more time there. The communication was excellent. They answered all of our questions promptly The only thing that I found a bit odd were the door looks. I took a little while to get it figured out, but besides that the property is beautiful, the upper decks and views are awesome. I would definitely do it again.

Old men getaway

The property was great. We stayed at this property in 2022. It was refreshed inside and out very nicely. No one has any complaints. The kitchen was great, and the bedrooms were comfortable. I personally could have used a few more pans but it was well supplied.

The house was very nice and well kept. Owner was very friendly. Plenty of seating for meals. Owner supplied lots of board games, volleyball, badminton, horseshoes, etc. About a 10 minute walk to beach. Well furnished. Nice decks.

Multiple family vacation

My girlfriends and I brought our kids down for Labor Day weekend while our husbands had a "guys retreat". We loved the layout of the house - all the kids stayed upstairs and the adults got some quiet time on the main floor. Large dining room table made group meals so easy. We hope to make this an annual event! Thanks, Marisol.

Beautiful home!

My very large family (complete with parents, spouses, and kids) rented for a week in June and were very pleased with the accommodations. Plenty of bed space, bathrooms, and a large kitchen were especially welcome. The kids enjoyed the toys in the game room as well as the playscape. We had an issue with the A/C, and the owners responded quickly--even driving from Tomball at 9:00 at night to bring out a portable unit when the repair guy couldn't get there timely. Overall, very pleased with our experience and highly recommend this home!

Miracle of the Sea

This is a beautiful property that sits in a safe, quiet, clean neighborhood away from the hustle and bustle of Galveston. The home is spacious, well stocked with linen and kitchen tools/dishes. The A/C is cold and the hot water is hot for all 10 of us! The separate living spaces allows for the kids to have a space to watch TV and play. The washer and dryer, while dated, works great. The outside shower has warm water and works great to get the sand off. The yard is spacious and well manicures, but watch out for fire ants! The swing set is a little rickety, but held up! We had a wonderful stay and the owner is easy to reach and very nice! Great for large, multi-family use.

After Wedding Celebration

My husband and I were married on August 31st and with it being Labor Day weekend and family coming in from out of town we decided to get a beach house to continue the celebration through Labor Day. The house was perfect with plenty of room for those that stayed overnight. The elevator was a huge plus for our handicap family members. The kids enjoyed the huge yard and new playground. The outdoor patio was amazing and we had a great view. We had plenty of room to grill on the huge pit they have available. Everyone stayed entertained with the games and activities available at the house. Overall this was a great stay and better than we expected. I would highly recommend renting from Marisol and this beach house. We will definitely plan a trip back. Thanks!

Family Reunion/Birthday

We spent a weekend at Miracle of the Sea for a family reunion/birthday party for my mother. The house is spacious and the interior made us feel like we were at an upscale hotel but it had all the comforts of a home. The house was spotless and even though the description of the beach house says "sleeps 17" there is actually more if you include the couches in the bedrooms and den. This home is not on the beach but we were able to take a short walk to the dunes walk-overs. Without the elevator my mother and a couple of my aunts would not have been able to participate and also the ABSOLUTELY loved the wall- in shower in the master bedroom. My mother and aunts are still taking about this vacation home and we will rent again.

About the host

Hosted by Marisol Mendez

My name is Marisol Mendez and I manage Miracle of the Sea Vacation Beach Home for my mother-in-law. My husband Estevan built this dream home for my mother-in-law( Maqui). Maqui took an interest in having a beach house as an investment/getaway for the family. Every year, for the past 10 years, Maqui has taken the initiative to plan the family vacations for us throughout the United States and one in Acapulco, Mexico. Maqui would make plans for her 2 sons, daughter-in-laws, 1 daughter, son-in-law, and 10 grandkids. We wanted to make the best out of the short time and cherish those memories. Where your vacation is equally as important as where you stay.

Why they chose this property

Miracle of the Sea is great place to relax and build some fond memories. It is a direct result of the likes and dislikes of our vacation experiences. Miracle of the Sea truly is unique. The property description and pictures don’t do it justice. We have gone above and beyond the norm to make our stay as comfortable as possible. We enjoy it every chance we get and now available for others to enjoy it as well.
